Edel | Original Character

[apathycary]

[mongoosegrin]

Edel.

[sopping. wet. head to toe, clothes and all. oncoming squishy footsteps, arms held out to dangle and drip.]

[apathycary]

[ There is a moment he has to pause and just look at you, Alexander. Edel can not help but raise an eyebrow at this predicament. ]

... When I told you to take a shower, I wasn't necessarily expecting this.

[mongoosegrin]

[he snorts, getting that i-would-roll-my-eyes look with a tilt of his head. plotting.

and then he advances and snags sleeve in finger-and-thumb lobster grip and starts to tug.]

Come on, I will show you.

[apathycary]

[ Show him? Edel could only wrinkle his nose at that notion, but did not attempt to stop Alexander. He was calm- which was good! Great! Much better than he'd been in the last couple of weeks. This was a good change.

Or so he thought. ]

This isn't going to end terribly for me, is it? [ He frowned, but looked away. ] I don't enjoy practical jokes, Alexander.

[mongoosegrin]

Practical? Ehhh...[yanking him along, GET OUT OF YOUR HERMIT HOLE OF A ROOM.] I do not know if it is practical. It is...natural?

[apathycary]

Natural.

...Natural?

[ His hesitation certainly went unnoticed by Alexander. Why would he care? He enjoyed seeing Edel squirm and flustered, didn't he? Just what did that mean? It was still a joke, wasn't it? Couldn't he just, you know, go back to his room if that were the case? ]

... I do not think I enjoy the sound of this.

[mongoosegrin]

You do not enjoy anything. [a weightless jab, that is. he grins and gives a jerk - HURRY UP - and downstairs to the door, which gets a very energetic and heavy kick open. Alex yanks him outside before there's any chance to acknowledge the torrential downpour--

--until they're in it, that is.]

[apathycary]

[ There is a terrible fluster now. He wants to be angry, but being pulled along somewhat takes away from the effect of his scoldings: ]

That isn't true! A-At all!

[... Until they reached the downpour, that is. Without proper time to react, Edel was simply thrown into it with Alexander. The first reaction was to open his mouth to protest. The next, and certainly more obvious than the first, reaction was that of surprise and- well.

It was suddenly very wet. ]

[mongoosegrin]

Haha! [Alex yanks him ahead and lets go, hopping off that last step and laughing, head ducked down and shoulders up against the rain. one eye shut, one eye squinting over at Edel, grinning.]

Natural, see?

[apathycary]

[ And wet. Edel wanted to complain. He simply took off his glasses then and neatly folded them in his front pocket. What else could he do now? He was already wet by this point.

And somewhat cold when he folded his arms together. ]

Isn't it dangerous to play in downpours? I suppose we won't be swallowed away by the water, but I don't think it's right to ignore such a possibility either!

[ ... pause. ]

... You re not listening at all, are you?

[mongoosegrin]

[not really. both eyes are closed as he slowly lifts his head into it, smearing his hair back with a hand.]

Colder. It is better like this, now.

[apathycary]

[ It was only going to give them both colds, Edel thought. Although rain itself wasn't to blame, the effect it had on the body- lowering your defenses, that is, led to invasions of the most sickly kind.

Still. What was Edel to do? He clung to himself and thought about Alex's words. ]

Is... your homeland cold? Like this?

[mongoosegrin]

Always colder. Nights longer than the days. [his eyes remain closed as his head lowers.] The rain is the worst. It drowns out the smells, makes you track by stone.

[his eyes open.] But it is better for here. To smell just the dirt and rain.

[apathycary]

That's strange.

[ With that, Edel pulls back his own hair from his face. When it wasn't springy and flexible with it's curly locks, it was -long-. Not necessarily uncomfortable, just a bit of an annoyance. ]

Your home sounds incredibly dangerous and, quite frankly, rather unlivable.

[ And he looks at him. ]

And yet, you miss it so.

[mongoosegrin]

[that gets a laugh out of him, and his brow furrows with an inner fight about something or another.]

I will only hate it anew, going back. Like I hate it here, but only when I am here. Is that not true for you as well?
