There's a storm on the way

Who: Everyone!
Where: City wide event!
When: November 23rd to November 30th
Summary: Seasons change, and in a dramatic way!
Warnings: 100% chance of heavy rainfall, and a good chance of musical numbers.

There's a definite change in the seasons.

In between the initial rain showers the locals are preparing for the change in the weather, making sure their roofs are sturdy and mended, windows are closed and secured, supplies are ready...Those who help out, or have helped in prior events might even find a care package prepared and left in the lobby of their apartment, or outside their door. (The contents being a few days worth of simple food; rice gimbap, some fruits, etc. And a few candles as well.) If asked, they say that the seasons are shifting, and the rainy season will be here in full force soon.

...And sure enough if a few days, on the morning of the 23rd, the weather DOES shift, and those clouds that have been gathering and sprinkling finally let loose with all that stored up rain. It falls in light drizzles, heavy torrents, gentle misting curtains, but most key of all it NEVER lets up. There's always some precipitation going.

That said, it might be good to head out with an umbrella when heading out. There's something about some of these storms that's odd; maybe it's just the mood that comes with the rain, the rhythm of the drops on the roofs and the ground, but...There's something almost musical about it at times. Sort of reminds one of a song, in fact!

Fuuka tapped her chin, thinking a moment. There had to be a reason for it. Something like this didn't just happen. Unless of course in Saeng Seong it did, and the new comers were just now seeing it.

"...do you know how long it has been happening? Perhaps if we can pin point when it started, we can find it's cause."

She looked up at Rei, amazed the two of them fit under the umbrella, and saw how concerned he looked. Reaching out she touched his arm, hoping to sooth him a little. Even after their...kind of embarrassing songs, she still thought touch might help. It had so far.

"I... well, hmm. Let me think a moment." It helped. It really did. For a guy who wasn't so touchy-feely, the comfort - and the effect it brought with it - helped settle his jumbled thoughts.

"I hadn't heard the singing in the apartments. No, everyone was singing in the streets, but once I'd gone into a building, it was gone." He shook his head.

"Which makes no sense...!"

"...so it's not indoors..."

She murmured, glancing around. If only was happening outside, then there must be something going on there that wasn't indoors. And she hadn't started singing until...a light bulb went off in her head

"...until I walked into the rain!" she exclaimed, gripping Rei's arm. Looking out at the drizzle, she thought a moment, then stepped out from under the umbrella. The rain was warm, and didn't feel any different then regular rain. But that didn't mean much. After several seconds, she looked back at him and opened her mouth.

Do you ever miss the girl
You left behiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiind?


The note was very high and poor Fuuka was not equipped to sing it, and she quickly cut herself off by slapping a hand across her mouth. Looking at Rei wide eyed for a moment, she started to giggle, which turned into laughter as she hurried back under the umbrella. Excited she had been correct, she tried to tell him.

Is the girl you left behind
Out there tonight romancin?
Makin eyes at someone else
And singin? Is she dancin?


A hand on her mouth again, she couldn't help but laugh again, now more amused then embarrassed or scared. What a strange place this was!

The rain? Was she saying it was the rain that was causing all of this? Rei had his doubts, but when she purposefully stepped out from under the umbrella to sing a few lines from a tune that vaguely rang bells for him, that alone could eliminate the doubts in most minds.

Most.

Face colored, the frown deepened. He looked confused more than anything else. W-why on earth was she laughing about all of this, when she was singing embarrassing things??

"I-if I'm going to sing things of that nature, I want nothing to do with this rain... curse...!" Whatever this was. He didn't like it at all, but was anyone surprised with this sort-of killjoy? But as he looked away he looked a little put-off. A lot of these songs have been rather intimate, and he was wondering if Saeng Seong itself was mocking him.

Realizing he was not at all amused, Fuuka's laughter died down. She was relieved to have figured out the cause. But it didn't solve anything, or make the situation less unfortunate. Flushed with embarrassment, she lightly touched his wrist, feeling her fingers warm.

"Y-you're right...I'm sorry, I got carried away. Perhaps...we should find a place indoors, and wait it out. Maybe a resident knows what is happening."

"They would know their weather patterns. Though it makes no sense, we are on another planet entirely, after all." He sighed, adjusted his glasses, and was ready for this weather to be over so they could go back to their lives, such as they were here.

"I just hope this isn't unusual for them as well." He'll lead the way, holding the umbrella in such a way to cover them both. N-no more music...!

"I think all sense went out the window as soon as we were transported here ," she said with a slight shake of her head. Compared to that, being made to sing in the rain should be almost normal. Almost. Making sure to stay under the umbrella, she hurried along beside him, thinking on what he was saying. If the natives didn't know anything about this rain...they were out of luck. Unless they conducted research of their own of course. Though she wasn't quite sure how to go about that.

"I-I'm sure someone has to know something. This can't just be a single phenomenon..." But they were on a strange planet, and like she said, there was no sense here.
