You know, for all that "it was a dark and stormy night" is a hackneyed clichΓ©, I have to admit that I really can't think of a more apt way of describing the state of affairs outside. There's already water collecting in the streets; I imagine it won't be long before the roads and walkways are covered over. And from the sound of it, this storm is going to get worse before it gets better.

Squalls like this weren't altogether uncommon in the place I consider to be my native land; it was a wild place where raw power governed, so it only seems natural that it would have weather to match. I can't deny that even now, I still find a certain raw beauty in the fury of it all. But all the same, these sorts of storms are not to be trifled with, or taken lightly β€” and they're far better experienced from beneath the shelter of a sturdy roof and solid walls.

If you're not already prepared to weather a deluge, I would recommend remedying that quickly. There's something that feels oddly vicious about this particular tempest, and I won't be at all surprised if trying to brave it becomes hazardous sooner rather than later.

People die in weather like this where I'm from. Never thought I'd be glad for the ridiculous height of the buildings here, but clouds and silver linings, I guess.

[Wait. Wait, hang on. What did that kid do, which of these 'keys' does he press to make the--ah.]

:)

Yeah. Never know what you'll find if you take a good butcher's at your cup of rosie.

Guessing games aside, it's strange we didn't have any warning for it. Thought the scientists with their tecknology could see something this big coming for us. I've seen people predicting the weather on those big glass panels before.

Vengeful spirits, you think? Never had to deal with any this powerful myself.
bolderfell: No helping it. <user name="hashagi" site="tumblr.com"> (WELL πŸ—‘οΈ Guess so.)

Right. Don't want to jump to conclusions when the rains have just started -- it's the right season for storms in some places, and the city's close to shore. Could be what passes here for the normal turn of the seasons.

But you've got instincts for this kind of thing. If this storm's making YOU uneasy, I think I'll run out and get more supplies before it's completely impossible. Might be your friend up there has the right idea after all.

Only if you start fussing at me. I'll be fine. They make good boots here, and I'll be quick. Some of us just can't easily grow our own food stores.

I know. I will be.

If it were just me, maybe I wouldn't risk it. But, well.
bolderfell: Buy my friendship for 8000 leaves! <user name="sgr_octpt" site="twitter.com"> (FELT πŸ—‘οΈ You. You can stay.)

That's a fancy way of saying I care too much. Thanks, though. Appreciate the effort.

He does take the suggested while to think about it. And also maybe to duck into the nearest minimart for several boxes of pizza pockets and instant oatmeal. F in the chat for Apartment Roguepath's nutritional balance.]


It would've been what it meant, a while ago. At least to me.

But you agree. That it's a priority. Or a value. Taking care of what's yours, or who.

You'd manage to make it look good somehow. On the other hand, I may look stupid in this coat I got, but I'm perfectly dry. And already on my way back in.
bolderfell: Wouldn't you care to spend a little more time with me? <user name="nappotuna" site="tumblr.com"> (ALLURE πŸ—‘οΈ Admit it now.)

Would you rather I kept them for myself?

She liked them. She likes flowers. So, thanks.
bolderfell: 3... 2... 1... <user name="hashagi" site="tumblr.com"> (POP πŸ—‘οΈ Uh.)

[personal profile] bolderfell 2020-08-26 12:36 pm (UTC)(link)
I was kidding. What am I going to do with flowers?
bolderfell: You wanna put money on it? <user name="hashagi" site="tumblr.com"> (OH? πŸ—‘οΈ Think so?)

[personal profile] bolderfell 2020-08-26 09:35 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm sure you're right. Get the feeling whatever uses you have in mind don't have much to do with making medicines, which is all I can think of.
