[It took Rachel a few moments to find an umbrella, but when she does, she's also located a blanket. So she sits down next to Al and drops the blanket over him, holding the umbrella over the both of them, with a tired huff.

Rachel can't speak.]

[Al doesn't notice she's out there until he hears the huff of air. He glances in surprise at the blanket, but then smiles haplessly.]

I'm okay.

[She pulls out her PCD to text:]

It's freezing outside.

[And she hands it over.]

[Al takes it, fumbling just slightly with the slipperiness of the water.]

Ah... sorry. I'll come right in.

[She looks satisfied, but stays seated until he's willing to move, umbrella and all. She may be a brat, but she does nice things sometimes.]

You shouldn't be out here either.

[Al gets to his feet, putting a hand at the small of her back automatically, though he doesn't press hard at all, as if he's afraid of hurting her.]

[She opens her mouth to argue, but closes it, pushing herself to her feet with a silent sigh.

She's positively miserable. Losing her voice is her worst possible nightmare.]

I'm coming with you, don't worry.

[Gonna hustle her inside with a little pat. Oh, Rachel. He knows.]

[Rachel smiles a little and steps inside quickly, shaking out the umbrella before she does so.]

You know -- I had a friend named Ginia. She couldn't speak at all, she was born mute. But she could play the piano amazingly well.

[Rachel blinks at the suggestive and smiles tentatively, wiping her PCD off on her skirt to type out something for him, handing it over:]

I can play the piano but it's not my forte.

Maybe not, but maybe you could treat it as a chance to practice your piano, so it's as good as your singing?

[She's quick to type out the next bit.]

I need a piano in this place, then. Could you help me?

I could. There's a piano in Whipstaff, and a piano in the Bar at the End of the World... but I don't know if anyone's kept it up. We might have to visit someone and ask if they'd mind?

[She nods eagerly. Perfect!]
