[The video turns on to find Merry trying to tug on rain boots. She already has a slicker on, and a water proof cap is sitting beside her on the bed, ready to be put on as well.]England has bad weather all the time, so it's not like we aren't used to rain. But the City isn't like any place in any world, so I'm worried about the storm that's coming

Are you nearly ready, Merry?

[ms_marycontrary]

Nearly. I just need to get this stubborn boot on...

[misterblackbird]

I'll help, if it comes to that.

[ms_marycontrary]

--ah! Finally got it on. Thank you for offering, though.

Are we going to move to someplace with higher ground?

[primrosella]

I think it's going to be a rather bad one, Merry.

[ms_marycontrary]

I'm really worried, Rosella...I've never been through a natural disaster before.

[primrosella]

It's worrisome, but this sort of thing always seems to happen around this time of year, and it's nothing we haven't endured before. But it'll be all right. We'll manage it as best we can, just as we always do.

[ms_marycontrary]

I guess as long as we get on the ark, we'll be fine...are you heading there soon?

[witheringlily]

I hope everyone will be able to board safely. Please take care of yourself, Miss Merry Weather.

[ms_marycontrary]

You too, Miss Uni. Are you going to be alright? You're not by yourself, are you?

[witheringlily]

I'll be fine! The bag I'm carrying is a bit heavy, but I'm not too far away from the ark. It shouldn't be that bad.

You'll be going with others, right?

ffff that last icon was supposed to be this one, not the happy smiley one

[ms_marycontrary]

Heavy? Will you need help with it? And yes, I am. With my brother and Riff and the other residents here. Would you like to meet up?

[deathofdelilah]

I wonder if you'll float away if it floods.

[ms_marycontrary]

I know how to swim, thanks very much.

[deathofdelilah]

That's not going to necessarily save you from a flood.
