Brrr, it's freezing!

[lucetimods]

Who: Anyone around the village
What: Freezing rain!
When: The 22nd and the 23rd
Where: All around the village
Summary: The weather takes a turn for the worse as freezing rain comes down across the village. Don't slip and fall!
Rating: F for freezing

Rain begins falling early morning on the 22nd. By 9 AM, there's a good layer of ice as it continues to rain on and off throughout the next two days, sometimes drizzling, sometimes coming down hard for a few minutes. By the evening of the 23rd, it stops raining. Ice buildup is between one and two inches (2.54 cm to 5.08 cm), enough to put some strain on trees, break some branches, and even knock out electricity in some areas despite the lack of any visible powerlines.

((Have at it! Also if you want to use this thread for any post-storm clean up - melting ice, clearing away fallen branches, patching things up - go for it!))

I focused the flames, told 'em not to burn anything except the tree... and it did, it worked!

[accepted]

[...Good job? Have a few claps from the wolf guy who still doesn't really think Rin did anything.]

Couldn't you have told the flames not to burn the tree at all? [jw...]

[rashness]

Don't ruin the moment, jackass!

[ :| ]

[accepted]

What moment?!

[He's not good at reading the atmosphere, sue him.]

[rashness]

My moment of triumph! You're a jackass, man!

[accepted]

Shut up, I'm not a jackass!! It just looked like you were standing there to me!

[rashness]

[Shove!

He means for it to be a light shove but in this form he's probably ten times as strong as a human or more so you decide how strong it ends up]

[accepted]

[Strong enough to send him back a pace or two before knocking him over...

But he's quickly back on his feet and practically roaring now.]

First you try and hit me and now you push me over?! The hell do you keep doing that sort of stuff to me?!

[Seriously he doesn't get it.]

[rashness]

[WHAT HOW DO YOU NOT Get-] It's a guy thing, male bonding! It's what guys do!

[accepted]

[Is it?! So... He should push back right? It's not like his dad, Tilkis or Forest ever pushed him around to bond with him.

...

Well he can't push Rin back with him all on fire like that so whatever. Huff.]

I didn't know that! Back home I just talked with people, never shoved them like that... Are you sure that's what guys are meant to do?

[rashness]

Sure I'm sure! Look, that's as male bonding like as my work with the flames there was awesome!

[Goooosh]

[accepted]

[...So by that he means that shoving people isn't anything like male bonding at all because no matter what Rin says he was still just standing there doing nothing!! To Caius anyway.]

But that wasn't... Uh, fine, what else do guys do to bond then?

[Note to self: shove Rin the next time they meet and write it off as male bonding.]

[rashness]

Not stand here freezing? [Ugh, flames spew out a bit more as he repels more ice on the ground] Look Caius, it's cool you're a dog or a wolf or whatever, but I gotta get back.

[accepted]

I doubt you're freezing under all that fire. [Seeing as more ice is melting and all.] Alright then, get back to whatever you were doing... But call me a Leymon next time, I'm not a dog!

[rashness]

Fine, Leymon! Sorry, jeez!

[And now to keep braving the storm back to the community building]
