003 STORE FRONT - Better hope they have an awning you can take advantage of
004 THE BEACH - Not exactly the best place to be during a rainstorm, however it is possible to get caught in a sudden storm
005 WILD CARD - Anyway you want it

001 TREE - Not the best cover, but it'll have to do, stay close to the roots and you won't get too wet.

006 WILD CARD - Anyway you want it.

INSOMNIA

01 โ€ข FEAR. Maybe you're hearing strange, indeterminable noises; maybe there's a severe storm happening outside; maybe you watched a scary movie before bed? Whatever the reason, you're terrified and it's keeping you awake. You just want to wake someone else up so they can protect you from the monster in your closet.
02 โ€ข HUNGER. Your stomach is growling and it just won't stop. Or perhaps your throat is so dry you could cough up a tumbleweed? Well, you've gone to the kitchen to remedy this and hey, that was a pan that just dropped on the floor. It was loud enough to wake the dead! Oops.
03 โ€ข PAIN. Your body is completely worn out, be it from exercise, battle, sickness, or what have you. Either way you're in enough pain to keep you from sleeping, so maybe someone else has a home remedy or something, or can at least help you take your mind off of it.
04 โ€ข SOLITUDE. For some reason, your bed just feels so empty at the moment. You're feeling terribly lonely and really just want someone to keep you company for a while. Maybe it'd be easier to fall asleep if you're with them...
05 โ€ข DISCOMFORT. Your room is an oven. Either that or a freezer. Or maybe this bed is just really uncomfortable? Who knows why you can't get to sleep, it feels like it could be anything. Why even bother trying? Maybe someone else can preoccupy you until you feel tired enough to ignore your discomfort.
06 โ€ข PENSIVE. Something's on your mind, and no matter how hard you try to focus elsewhere, it's just not going to work. Your body may be tired, but your mind is incredibly busy and it's virtually impossible to get to sleep. Surely, talking it out with someone else will help?
07 โ€ข SADNESS. Something terrible has happened that day, perhaps; or you could just be severely depressed. Either way you're trying your hardest not to cry yourself to sleep, and it's not working at all. Better find a way to get it out of your system somehow; you need a shoulder to cry on.
08 โ€ข ANGER. You are just... fuming. Who knows why - that annoying dog is barking again, or maybe the people next door are getting busy and keeping you awake. Whatever the reason for your ire is, you'd better put an end to it so you can get some damn rest already! Go wake up a friend so you can complain to them.
09 โ€ข RESTLESS. You're far too energetic to sleep right now. Maybe you're just trying to do so out of necessity - you have to be up early tomorrow! But you just don't think you'll be able to fall asleep for a while now, so why waste the time trying to sleep when you could be doing something else? Namely bothering someone else - you're totally jealous because they're getting more sleep than you.
10 โ€ข WILDCARD. Choose one of the options above, or make up your own scenario.
CITY AT NIGHT
โ€” scenario prompts

1) WORKING.

You're still caught up at the office or wherever it is you're holed up. It's getting late, but there's work to be done.

2) RELAXING.
You're warm and comfortable someplace indoors, whether it's in a cozy nook of a cafรฉ or maybe just in your own apartment. There's no other place you really need to be, is there?

3) MEET-UP/DATE.
Is there someone you're seeing for dinner? A date? Maybe you're going bar-hopping together with some friends, or your attendance is expected at some special event. Alternatively, there's someone you're meeting with to make a deal of some kind, whether it's perfectly legitimate or something that might invite trouble with local enforcement.

4) OUT FOR A WALK.
Sometimes, it's nice to get out for some fresh airโ€”or, well, as fresh as it gets with all the air pollution around you. The park's not too far away; it might be nice and quiet at this hour, if you don't run into any...

5) TROUBLE.
It's getting late and it's dark outside, but someone has been tailing you for a while. Walking faster only makes them speed up; they're doggedly persistent. What to do now? Is there a busy street you can turn on to for help? Or maybe it's time to confront your pursuer... On the flip side, you're the one tracking someone. For what reason? Well, only you would know, right?

6) OTHER.
Anything else you can think of!

โ€” setting prompts

A) STREETS/ALLEYS.

Are you visiting a busy district teeming with people? Or are you out on a quieter street? It can be dark out there, especially if you turn onto a smaller one without many streetlamps. Watch your step. Some of the alleyways might make good shortcuts if you're trying to get somewhere fast, but there's also trouble to be found sometimes. Don't get cornered anywhere, and especially don't get too curious if you see something suspicious in one of the dumpsters...

B) IN TRANSIT.
You're between locations right now, just trying to get on with your evening. You have some options, like public transportation: the bus, the train, the subway. Alternatively, you're a fancier kind of person: you've got your own car that you're driving, or better yet, you have a chauffeur and a private car. Or, you know, you're just taking a taxi or using a ride-share app. There are also transitional spaces like parking lots or garages.

C) DINING.
Some cities are melting pots of different cultures; you're bound to find countless spots at which to eat. There are small cafรฉs if you want a quick bite, or fancier restaurants where you can wine and dine. You could support a small family business by dropping by at a local hole in the wallโ€”sometimes the most authentic spots with the best food are nondescript locations. Or if you're really trying to impress, go for some famous Michelin three-star.

D) NIGHT LIFE.
Bars, clubs, loungesโ€”all of it's fair game. Remember to drink responsiblyโ€”or don't, if you're looking to really forget about your troubles for a while. Just know that you'll only have yourself to blame for that raging hangover in the morning.

E) CORPORATE BUILDING.
In a larger city, major corporations might be headquartered in the glittering skyscrapers that line the most expensive districts. There are all kinds of businessesโ€”banks, law firms, finance companies, tech groups, to state just a few. Some places might keep their lights on pretty late at night for the white-collar workers burning the midnight oil; others, perhaps not. Do you fit somewhere in this equation? Or if you're here for something more exciting, there's always corporate espionage...

F) SHOPS.
A lot of shops could be closed by now, but maybe it's that final hour before that mall or outlet you wanted to visit locks their doors for the evening. Time for some last-second shopping! Snatch up that deal before it's gone, or be sure to buy a gift for your date before it's too late!

G) HOME.
You're at home, wherever that isโ€”an apartment, a condo, a house somewhere, or maybe something more extravagant. Real estate can get expensive in the city, especially in popular locations. Do you have a tiny apartment that covers all your basic needs? Or something much nicer, like the type of penthouse people usually only see in movies, complete with floor-to-ceiling windows?

H) CITY SQUARE.
Some city squares are hubs of activity, filled with street performers, pop-up stores, or food stalls. There's a lot you could do, especially when it's nighttime and the little lights strung around the place look so pretty.

I) ABANDONED SPACE.
Every city has its fair share of abandoned warehouses or other buildings that are slated for demolition. Sometimes they attract certain types of crowds that would make your average person think twice before confronting. A lot of places are off-limits, but every so often, the no-trespassing sign is more of a suggestion than a real threat, right?

J) OTHER.
Anything else you can think of!

FAKE DATING

home for the holidays โ‡ข You need to prove to your parents that you do so have a significant other. Just until they're gone.
no singles need apply โ‡ข The place is perfect, but the landlady will only rent it to a nice, respectable couple.
it's not safe for a woman alone โ‡ข One of you is vulnerable in this big, bad world without a partner to protect you.
public relations โ‡ข There's only one way to stop these pesky rumors: start your own.
undercover mission โ‡ข They'll never suspect a couple of lovey-dovey honeymooners of... whatever it is you're actually up to.
marriage of convenience โ‡ข It's good for both your families. Or your finances. Or your hetero street cred. Whatever: might as well make the best of it.
well that escalated quickly โ‡ข It's common knowledge that you're together, except you're the last to know. Is it worth correcting people?

Good, juuuust making sure.

[She gives Yuffie a smile that says "I don't believe a word of it".]

I think if we don't get lost down here, it'll take us twenty minutes or so to get to the other side. [That's a big if; narrow tunnels mean lots of opportunities to take a wrong turn, in Krile's opinion.

But then an angry cry echoes down the tunnel, and out of one of those passages comes a raging ball of angry blue feathers, and a beak, and poison-tipped claws.]


Look out!

[She tries to shove Yuffie out of the way, but it's a small space and it's a lot of eagle--]
dachaobean: (INT051)

[personal profile] dachaobean 2022-07-05 08:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Not again!

[Yuffie manages to dodge just in time before she winds up with a mouthful of feathers, or worse, a poison-tipped claw to the face or a peck of its beak in the eye. Instead, she's forced to slam against the wall of the tunnel, and she drags Krile with her, falling back against it with a grunt.

The eagle scrambles as well, flapping its wings violently, but it's hard to tell if it's trying to fend them off or simply get past them. Either way, Yuffie's not about to let it through without a fight.]


Alright, you stupid bird...! Let's rumbโ€”huh!?

[She whips out her shurikenโ€”or tries to, but she's stuck halfway.]
mooglesatdawn: OO screenshot: standing ready with her staff (or spear) (random encounter GET)

[personal profile] mooglesatdawn 2022-07-06 07:51 pm (UTC)(link)
[Yuffie's quick reaction is well-timed--Krile can feel the eagle's feathers scrape across her face before she's pulled to the wall.

But this tunnel isn't a good place for a big throwing weapon like the shuriken--and as Krile tries to distance herself to find more room, she finds it's not that good for a magic staff, either. Her instincts are screaming at her to run and find more room, but her other thoughts say that's a bad idea in a narrow cave full of little tunnels. "More distance" could mean "hopelessly lost" too quick.

In the one second she's busy deciding what to do, the eagle lashes out with its talons--Krile tries to thwack it away, and saves her face. But not her forearm.]


Ow! Get off!
dachaobean: (INT052)

[personal profile] dachaobean 2022-07-07 02:43 am (UTC)(link)
Get! Off! You! Stupid! Bird!

[All Yuffie can do when the giant bird attacks her arm is swat at it with the shuriken, careful not to hit Krile with its sharpened ends as she beats at it until it finally relents and lets go, falling to the ground so that it can hop away from them and put some distance before it inevitably swoops in for another attack.]

We need to get out! No way I can fight this stupid thing in here, it's too cramped!

[Definitely not ideal for a throwing weapon, butโ€”]

I might be able to stall it.
mooglesatdawn: (A grave situation in a cat ear hood)

[personal profile] mooglesatdawn 2022-07-10 06:49 pm (UTC)(link)
[It takes, seemingly, much too long for the eagle to relinquish its grip, but finally pulls its talons out under Yuffie's assault. As soon as it does, Krile pulls her arm close to her chest and falls back.

She's not used to getting hurt in battle. She has been in battle, but with soldiers around her, and at the back of the battle line with her wind drake. But she knows what you're supposed to do--it's to keep going. And also cuss. So if there's a litany of antiquated cussing like 'blasted belabored buzzard' and 'consarn it' coming out in a rapid-fire mutter, well, that's the Baldesion way.]


Okay! Let's just get back out.

[Maybe there's a way over the rockslide after all.

And in the meantime, she aims a Blizzard spell at the eagle, sending a line of ice spikes up from the floor to force it back another step or two. It'll be easier for Yuffie to stall it if she's got another few seconds.]
dachaobean: (INT036)

[personal profile] dachaobean 2022-07-11 04:03 pm (UTC)(link)
[Easy indeed.

Yuffie lets Krile squeeze past first after she's managed to get her blizzard spell off, and the bird flaps its wings as it tries to avoid flying right into them when it gives chase, and she does break out into a run after her to give herself a bit of extra space before she's skidding to a halt.]


You picked the wrong tree today.

[A wall of electricity shoots up from the ground, and there's an ungodly screech as the lightning clips the birds wings and chops the tip of one of its talons clean off. It won't last long, however, and when it all dies away, it screeches again, louder and more aggressive this time.]

I think I pissed it off...

[And she's turning on her heel and stumbling forward after Krile, and she can hear its wings WHOOSHING directly behind her.]

Run!

[They need to go. NOW!]
mooglesatdawn: OO screenshot: standing ready with her staff (or spear) (random encounter GET)

[personal profile] mooglesatdawn 2022-07-13 08:54 pm (UTC)(link)
[Krile looks back long enough to see the tower of lightning Yuffie creates, but she speeds up at the instruction so that Yuffie has a clear path to run through. She's trying to hold off on kicking herself for suggesting this path in the first place. That can wait till they're safe.

And by the sounds of the flapping wings behind them, they've got more work to do before that happens. As soon as Krile exits the mouth of the tunnel, she throws herself to the side so that Yuffie has plenty of room to get away from the eagle. She lifts her rod in her good hand, ready to unleash another blast of magic if it's not content with merely chasing them out.]
dachaobean: (INT044)

[personal profile] dachaobean 2022-07-16 04:52 pm (UTC)(link)
[Yuffie dives as soon as she reaches the tunnel's exit, tumbling and rolling as the momentum sends her over her own feet when they hit uneven ground, but by the time she's somewhat upright, she already has her shuriken at her side, and she calls at the bird menacingly with a very (non)threatening "grrr!"

However, the moment it finds air, it takes to the skies, its cries echoing across the plains as it flaps its giant wings to make its escape.]


Are you serious!? Not even gonna put up a fight after all that!?

[Count your blessings, Yuffie. Take the W!!!]

Ya big giant CHICKEN!!!

[personal profile] mooglesatdawn 2022-07-17 08:38 pm (UTC)(link)
[WHEW, okay, they're out, the eagle is leaving them behind, they're safe--

--oh no no no]


Yuffie! Don't!

[A futile thing to say because 1. it's already happened and 2. the eagle heard them, and it's coming down to teach Yuffie a lesson. Krile quickly raises her staff to shoot a Thunder spell at it, and it hits, but--well, in accordance with the laws of physics, that means an angry-but-temporarily-stunned eagle is still barreling towards them. At speed.]
dachaobean: (INT050)

[personal profile] dachaobean 2022-07-20 12:46 am (UTC)(link)
Uh oh.

[It's all she says as the lightning cracks at the eagle, clipping one of its wings and singeing the tips of its feathers as it swoops back around, its black eyes fixed menacingly on one (1) ninja and her shuriken now that she has it out.

But she isn't about to back down from a fight. Not with some stupid bird. So as soon as it comes down at them, she leaps up and... lands on its back...]


Gotcha!

[Yeah, this is probably fine. As it swings and spins and flaps and tries to turn around to peck at her and her hands that dig into its feathers.]

Krile! Take it down!

[oh good grief of all the things Krile expected her to do, it was not THAT

granted, it does look like something Faris would try, but there's a difference between a self-assured pirate captain doing something so swashbuckling and a cocksure ninja, but, OKAY, GOTTA TAKE IT DOWN and without hurting Yuffie in the process--

--oh yes.]


Toad!

[The magic that shoots out of her staff has an oddly... rubbery quality. Not the dramatic whoosh and sparkle you get from elemental magic. What you do get is a big angry eagle turning into a small angry toad, in midair, with a ninja girl on its back.]

[Yuffie is just so full of fun surprises, isn't she!?

And so is Krile apparently, because Yuffie had been bracing herself for another splash or crack of magic to strike it down, but instead...

Crooooaaaaaaak...

She's staring into the eyes of... a toad... And just like that, the two of them tumble back to the ground, and she rolls off before she can crush the thing beneath her and instead kicks up dirt as she somersaults through the grass to a halt.

And from where she lies on her back, staring up at the blue skies above, she raises a hand to give Krile a thumbs up to let her know she's okay.

Croooooak.

Meanwhile, the toad is staring straight at Krile, as if trying to threaten or intimidate her...]

[personal profile] mooglesatdawn 2022-07-25 03:25 pm (UTC)(link)
[Krile steps back quickly to give Yuffie room to land, knowing that it wasn't going to end well but impressed that it actually doesn't go worse than that. She giggles at the ridiculous thumbs-up, relieved that Yuffie is okay.

As for the toad... Krile's gift for animal speech allows her to understand what it's saying, and it's nothing flattering.]


Really? Do you talk to your mother with that mouth? [It's a very silly thing to say to an eagle that has temporarily been turned into an amphibian. But its toady little toes won't be like that for long--and, gripping her sleeve tightly around her injured arm, Krile doesn't want to see them turn back.] We'd better get out of here. That won't last forever.

[personal profile] dachaobean 2022-07-25 11:07 pm (UTC)(link)
[Yuffie is in the middle of getting upโ€”or trying toโ€”when Krile calls back to her, and she groans and spits the dirt out of her mouth. She can feel a sharp ache already forming in her shoulder from where she must have twisted it funny, either on the bird's back or when she rolled off of it, but she manages. At least she doesn't need her arm to book it away before the bird can catch them.

As she steps up to Krile's side, she pauses to observe the toadโ€”]


Ribbit to you, too.

[โ€”before offering her fist for a fist bump. Please don't leave her hanging...! Fist bump her first and then they can go.]

Nice job!

[personal profile] mooglesatdawn 2022-07-28 03:35 am (UTC)(link)
[At first Krile thinks Yuffie is reaching out for a handshake, and she starts to instinctively raise her hand to return it, but then it's not a handshake, she's just... holding her fist out?]

Nice job!

[does she hi-5 the fist? SHE'LL TRY THAT, it's very awkward, FFV has submarine and hi-5 technology but this one is new]
dachaobean: (INT008)

[personal profile] dachaobean 2022-07-30 01:52 am (UTC)(link)
[...

.....

Yuffie stares at Krile, and then at her hand, and she tries her damnest not to break out into a wide, toothy, amused grin.]


Wait, have you never fist bumped someone before?

[It's like the more buddy-buddy version of a hi-five!!!]
mooglesatdawn: (zzzzzzz)

[personal profile] mooglesatdawn 2022-08-02 02:47 am (UTC)(link)
[oh she can SEE that grin you're trying not to grin, Yuffie. SHE KNOWS IT'S THERE, HIDING IN YOUR FACE.]

Nope! Must be one of those different-planet things. [okay but. now that she knows what this is. FIST BUMP.] Is this what everyone does after a fight they survive?
dachaobean: (010)

[personal profile] dachaobean 2022-08-02 02:09 pm (UTC)(link)
[NUH UH IT'S NOT. YOU'RE HIDING IN HER FACE!!!!

But said smile does break free unrestrained when Krile does manage the fist bump, and a little giggle bubbles up in Yuffie's chest as she straps away her shuriken on her back and gets to walking when the little croak of the bird-toad startles her. Yeah, let's not stand around for much longer. They can walk and talk!]


Nah, some people can high five, some do a manly chest bump, but I like that one the best. It's like saying "I'm too glad you're okay to unfist my hand for a high five."
mooglesatdawn: (zzzzzzz)

[personal profile] mooglesatdawn 2022-08-12 04:32 am (UTC)(link)
[Krile giggles at that notion.]

I'm not very manly at all. The fist-bump is definitely better.

[Bird-toad croak... Krile picks up the pace a little, with a glance over her shoulder, and bites her lip when speeding up seems to make the inside of her head rock.]

Um, speaking of that... [She looks down at her arm. Now that the fight is over, the pain that was suppressed by the adrenaline is starting to say "hey." But... it's not in Krile's nature to complain about pain. Baldesions don't do that. She's seen her grandpa take a lot worse than a bad handshake from an eagle and keep yelling orders to his soldiers anyway, and she should be able to do the same.] Never mind. Let's just get going.
dachaobean: (INT049)

[personal profile] dachaobean 2022-08-15 06:36 pm (UTC)(link)
[Yuffie does notice the way Krile's eyes dart down to her arm, and she makes note of it, biting down hard on her lip, but the two of them have already found a decent enough pace to keep at to put as much distance between themselves and the toady bird as possible before the transformation wears off.]

I'll take a look at it once we've got someplace safe to rest.

[She gives the shuriken on her back a pat and tries to offer Krile her most award-winning reassuring smile, the armour on her glove making a little clang when she does.]

I've got healing materia on here somewhere. Bet that'll do the trick.
mooglesatdawn: (zzzzzzz)

[personal profile] mooglesatdawn 2022-08-21 10:40 pm (UTC)(link)
[It's embarrassing to have let it slip, but there is still a brief look of relief on Krile's face when Yuffie says that.]

Right. No point stopping to heal if our friend tears us up again for not leaving fast enough. [She gives an interested look at Yuffie's glove. The materia she uses for spellcasting is something Krile wants to ask about sometime.] Just a Cure spell should do the trick.

What about you? Any lasting damage?
dachaobean: (INT006)

[personal profile] dachaobean 2022-08-23 02:42 pm (UTC)(link)
Nah, I'm sturdy as a rock.

[She pumps a fist against her chest, and there's a pause the moment it collides as she suppresses the urge to cough. Sturdy as a rock!!! Except she does feel a light sting at her side, but she ignores it.

Yuffie does, however, make a face as she briefly glances behind her at the weapon sheathed on her back.]


This thing took some damage, though. The stupid bird's talons scratched it all up. But I guess better that than my arm, right?

[And up ahead, she sees a flattened rock that looks almost perfect for sitting and taking a break.]

Over here!
mooglesatdawn: GBA sprite portrait looking impish (Suspiciously innocent-looking)

[personal profile] mooglesatdawn 2022-08-29 02:13 am (UTC)(link)
[Sturdy as a rock, eh?]

Okay. Very sturdy, not going to crash over at all.

[In spite of it, Krile giggles.]

Definitely better than your arm. [That big flat rock does look very inviting, and there's nothing wrong with taking a load off your feet after a fight where nothing went wrong and you didn't get hurt. Anyone might sit down a little heavily after that.] We'll have to find a good blacksmith to buff it out.
dachaobean: (INT018)

[personal profile] dachaobean 2022-08-30 03:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, but first...

[Yuffie slumps down on the rock and gives it a slap for Krile to come sit next to her.]

We gotta take a look at yours! That bird really snagged you, huh?
mooglesatdawn: (zzzzzzz)

[personal profile] mooglesatdawn 2022-09-02 02:38 am (UTC)(link)
[Krile slumps down gratefully. She's sure that Grandpa could go on with much worse than this. But it's obviously going to take a little more time and practice to get to his level of toughness.

She unwraps her hand from her other arm and shrugs off her jacket, revealing a deep, ragged, and bloody gash from the bird's talons--the blood she's been trying to hold back flows again and she quickly grabs hold of it again with a hiss.]


Not much of a friendly handshake.
