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.

Then we're going to see them.

[ it's as simple as that. hikage didn't get to have a life that was kind to him, so steph is going to do everything possible to make sure he gets it now. it won't make up for what had already happened, but... she wants to make him smile. ]

It'll be a road trip!

You have to go that far away?

[ a little petulant. he remembers that in his past life, the manor they lived in was right in the middle of the woods - all he had to do was look outside. At the time, he didn't really pay any attention, but looking back, it seems like a luxury. ]

Well, it's not like I have anything better to do... Are you allowed to just leave your "job" like that? You shouldn't be irresponsible. You have schoolwork, too.

[ hikage is like a mom and a child at the same time, somehow, god. steph rolls her eyes, turning to face him properly. ]

It'll be fine. Gotham will be okay without me for just a little while.

[ she does not touch the schoolwork thing. it's fine she has the syllabus. ]

[ SOMEONE HAS TO BE RESPONSIBLE AROUND HERE!! imagine how clean her house is now. ]

If you say so.

[ he makes it sound like he doesn't want to go, with how much he nags, but he almost certainly does. In the distance, there's the unmistakable low rumble of thunder - which surprises Hikage slightly, entirely because he hasn't heard it in so long. ]

... Give me a break.

[vigilantics]

Well, that's not good.

[ getting stuck outside while it's raining is one thing, getting stuck outside during a full-blown storm is another. ]

Should we make a break for it?
