rising waters

Jun 25, 2011 13:24

The rain had continued to pour non-stop for twenty-four hours, worsening during the late night hours. By mid-morning, those who were awake would discover the streets already flooded by almost a foot of the strange, dark water-as well as the houses and all other buildings ( Read more... )

[oh it's the guy who was obsessed with his girlfriend.]

Where are you? I can give you assistance.

[Action] soulsymmetrical July 2 2011, 07:49:10 UTC

[gives her a reassuring smile.]

We will.

[and he's off.

okay Seiji, your turn. he'll be there after exactly two minutes and fifty-three seconds from leaving Momo.]

[Action] i_love_head July 3 2011, 21:01:18 UTC

Yagiri, yeah. I'm not going anywhere before you get back. [Waves them off as they go.

The water's above his waist now, just creeping up on his abdomen. He doesn't think it'll get dangerously high during the wait, but if it does, good thing he can swim. Being tall definitely had its perks.]

[Action] soulsymmetrical July 4 2011, 06:11:59 UTC

[and two minutes and fifty-three seconds precisely, he appears. the water had risen a fair bit, but he might not be swimming quite yet.]

Give me your hand, I'll help pull you up.

[extending hand to help.]

[Action] i_love_head July 4 2011, 08:23:41 UTC

[Which... Seiji wouldn't know or appreciate. He's been worrying more about oh, not getting flushed away by flood waters. Which he didn't, luckily.

Grits his teeth, nods, and takes Kid's hand. Bounces on the balls of his feet to help spring him up.] Thanks.

[even though Kid had above average strength, the fact that Seiji was not only taller and naturally heavier actually called for some more effort. the water didn't help.

but once Seiji was on board, he only nodded.]

Only natural. Now hang on.

[and check it out, Seiji, you're flying on a skateboard!]

[Action] i_love_head July 5 2011, 08:29:52 UTC

[Utters an affirmative and holds tight.

Looks down as they fly off on said skateboard. Funny -- in a morbid way, maybe -- how small the buildings, trees, and landscaping in the water from up here.]

Where're we heading from here?

[Action] soulsymmetrical July 5 2011, 20:38:33 UTC

[he nods his head over to one of the high-rise buildings just ahead of them.]

Over there. I highly doubt the waters will go above twelve stories. The door to the inside is unlocked, so you can take shelter on one of its upper floors.

[Action] i_love_head July 6 2011, 23:58:54 UTC

[Checks out the building.] Ah. Nice that some things have been untouched. There's not much to go home to right now.

[A small smirk.] How's the girl? She didn't make a fuss, did she?

[Action] soulsymmetrical July 7 2011, 02:01:02 UTC

Not at all. I think she was a bit too shocked, really.

[on the descent.] You're taking everything rather well.

[Action] i_love_head July 9 2011, 02:17:03 UTC

[A bemused chuckle.] She'll be okay.

[Perks a little at that, then looks back at the water. Can't see much of anything besides it. Kind of eerie.] At least I'm not drowning in my sleep anymore. I might've been dead if I woke up even a minute too late. [Now there's a scary thought.]

[Action] soulsymmetrical July 9 2011, 03:11:19 UTC

[the ironic thought that Seiji was being saved by a death god flashed through Kid's mind, but he didn't say anything.]

Then it's a good thing you did. It would be a shame to lose someone like that.

[and now on the roof near Momo, addressing them both]

You should get yourselves dry. Catching hypothermia is the last thing you'll need.

[Action] i_love_head July 11 2011, 06:09:10 UTC

[Ah, the things we're blissfully unaware of.

Bows his head and lowers his eyes.] I'd hate to die without ever seeing her again. [Cringes.] Just the thought of it hurts enough.

[Kid's warning somehow snaps him out of his thoughts.] Right. Guess all we can do right now is wait out the flood.

[Turns to Adachi.] How're you doing?

[Action] Ah Hiatus why must thy hurt amourde_patou July 14 2011, 17:10:01 UTC

[ When he spoke about not seeing this person again, Momo became a bit confussed.

Quickly snapping back into reality, she responded. ]

Fine, and you? We should probably look for supplies.

[Action] Aww, no worries! i_love_head July 17 2011, 04:53:13 UTC

[Nods, then frowns just a little.] Food would be good too. Slogging through all that water takes a lot out of you.

[Starts walking... somewhere.]
