waiting for a lonely death...

[siberia]

CAUGHT IN THE RAIN MEME

It started out quietly, and then, quite suddenly, you're caught in a storm with an endless downpour. Time to quickly find cover! Nothing much to do but to wait it out.

[Here's the count!

With groceries. He's running his own errands today and his gaze is drifting upward as he stands in the doorway of a shop, humming a faint note of displeasure as he notes the rainfall.]

I wonder which shall last longer - the rainfall or the stomachs of everyone back at the mansion if I'm delayed...?

[Well, he's going to turn back if not stopped to go and purchase an umbrella! Pragmatic man.

did lupin tag along for shopping or is he going to show up with a solution just in the nick of time like he always does whO CAN SAY]

HERE I AM sorry for the delay dana!!

[heartsteals]

[ it's Lupin. What do you think is going to happen? ]

Hey, Count! You forgot something.

[ the familiar voice is followed by an umbrella being poked in his general direction, the arm holding it belonging to none other than one Arsène Lupin. Who is, naturally, here in the nick of time with a solution. It's basically his job. ]

Cardia was fretting about you getting stuck out here in the rain, and I can't bear to ignore a young maiden's worries.

[ even if he's 200% sure Saint-Germain isn't actually in any danger - Cardia's understanding of how sickness works is fuzzy at best, and she's so cute that he can't help but indulge her. Also, maybe he also felt bad for his poor friend getting sopping wet out in the rain. Maybe.......!! ]

NO WORRIES SILLY SIB

Oh? You're delightfully reliable as always.

[because even if he didn't quite foresee this exact set of events happening he's also not super surprised. now if this was impey suddenly being useful that would be another thing! still though, saint-germain will now be able to save some cash and not have to buy a new umbrella so that's pretty good

more cash to buy something ridiculous and eccentric later!]

In that case, you've won not only our young lady's appreciation but mine as well.

[and probably like. everyone else since sanchan was totally buying dinner for EVERYONE. lupin saves the day again.]

[heartsteals]

[ saving the day is basically his job... saving Saint-germain's money, on the other hand, Lupin has no interest in, considering he seems to essentially have an infinite amount of it...... ]

Keep it. You know I owe you a lot more than this.

[ he opens the umbrella, holding it out over the count's head and beckoning him to come nestle in. His plan had been to give it to him, but he's carrying a bunch of bags, so it looks like he'll be on umbrella duty today. ]

What'd you get?
