[Rain, huh? Not something he was expecting in the first place. Sure, it wasn't exactly the thing he wanted, and he had somehow strayed away from Gyro. Yeah, somehow it was just his luck that a useless person like him had managed to do something like this, huh? And to think that he was actually going to get a little bit better at keeping his bearings in the right place, and not prioritize useless things over what was actually important...but this was something he felt like he needed- time alone? No. More like...he was actually waiting for someone.

How long has it been, actually, since he had confessed to that girl, anyways? It didn't seem so long ago, but in his mind, it seemed as though months had flown by since then. And to think that someone like her would give him an actual reason to live. A figurative will to walk this path of life once more...he felt grateful to her, he really did. But he's been away from her for a while, and it was killing him on the inside- he needed to see her to clear his mind about the things that were going on. And no doubt, does he feel that she would actually do the same for him. Or would she...? He could never really figure out what she was thinking in the first place- but he does eventually find out her intentions, anyways.

But damned if this rain was screwing up this little rendezvous of theirs, it's making him grit his teeth a bit- he's had enough of rain. (Blackmore was one of those reasons he didn't like rain but the dude's dead so whatevs). But no, he was getting drenched here, feeling himself shivering up a bit. His coat that he brought wasn't helping much, nor was his hood actually giving his head the warmth it needed. Jeez, he feels as though a sneeze is going to come up, too.

The things he will do...oh well, not like he really cares anymore, he's just going through the motions at this point in time...]

What were you thinking, standing around here like this..

[ Eventually a voice speaks up, even if he might not have noticed anyone approaching. It's difficult with this rain either way, it makes it hard to see anything too far away from you and it's loud too since it's falling so hard. But the voice is a familiar one either way, it's Hot Pants, who came here through the rain as well. It's obvious the rain took its toll on her as well, since she's pretty soaked too, but at least her hat helps against the rain a little more so her head is actually not that bad.

Still, she can't help but let some sort of near-maternal instinct come out when she sees him standing there like that, soaked like some sort of poor animal waiting out in the rain. Even though her expression is as hard to read as usual, she's already moving to wipe some of his hair a little more to the side so it's not hanging all over his face without saying anything more for a moment.

If anything, she feels a little guilty for finding him like this. ] For how long have you been here already?

[He seems a bit surprised by the sudden appearance of the woman. Sheesh, if she didn't actually speak like a guy half of the time, he would have been on the offensive in a heartbeat. But no, he can recognize her voice even from a mile away. But her moving his hair out of the way to get a better look at his face? He's not sure what could have spurred it, but a light blush comes unto his face as his eyes dart the other way, a nervous laugh coming up.]

Don't worry about how long I've been out here. I'll be fine, nothing a little rain couldn't really do to me...ah...achoo!

[Great, he's already sneezing...jeez, he better not get sick over something as stupid as rain...the snow he endured no problem, but he's been out in this thing for so long that, well, it's practically taking a toll on him. Either way, a look of concern shoots across his face as his eyes dart back to Hot Pants, and seeing her soaked like that only makes him lean in to her face, his eyes scanning.]

...how are you feeling, you're not sick, are you?

[ You should feel lucky that Hot Pants is painfully unaware of what might be embarassing to someone else or not.. she's just wiping his hair aside a little to make him look more presentable and to make sure to get a clear look of his face to see if he's okay despite the rain, really, she didn't even mean anything special by it. Especially considering her usual look on her face even now.. even though it changes to a slight frown when he sneezes like that. ]

I'm fine. Maybe I should have grabbed an umbrella, but when I heard from you I couldn't help but hurry. [ She'll admit that, at least.. she really did want to see the guy again after everything. She can't stop the feelings in her heart now he's stirred them and then even returned them. ] You should have put on a coat though, you caught a cold already. [ Like a mom scolding her child... ]

[crippledstar]

[Great, he feels like a child with the way she was just talking to him. It causes his face to redden a bit more, but at least he hasn't lost his calm by this point. Everything...was going to be okay! He figures with enough time, Hot Pants was going to back away from this topic and leave him be...right? But no, he was equally as worried about the other girl, actually returning the favor of wiping the hair out of her face.]

Ah, don't worry about it, these colds are dime a doz- a...achoo! [He's definitely catching a cold...] ...and why didn't you take an umbrella? Jeez, it's the least you could have done. Who knows what would have happened if you got sick? I'm pretty sure you would have been sneezing up a storm...but...at least you're okay.

Do you usually like giving advice to other people that you don't follow yourself, Johnny? [ Mister STANDING OUT HERE IN THE RAIN WITH A COLD.. at least she's a little more resilent, geez. It's why she's already ushering him towards one of the nearby buildings so he can at least stand there a little more dry than here in the middle of the road.. ]

I figured that if it would be too bad, I could just make my own umbrella. [ Her Stand is useful, okay. ] But I figured it wasn't worth the trouble since it wasn't too far to here. It just rained a little harder than I thought.
