Warriors: Choose Your Own Adventure (COMPLETE)

[Arcaii]

Choices:

1: Who are you?
2: So that's a car?
3: Why in the rain?
4: Why in the rain?
5: Hello to you too
6: So that's a car?
7: Why in the rain?

Roll says... 7: Why in the rain?


"In the rain specifically?" you say, after a moment of collecting yourself. "Why is that?"

Leadership +1.

"You ever interact with a dog?" she says. "When they get wet, their fur starts stinking, and gets all oily. It's like that for the cement. Makes it slippery, easier for cars to crash."

"Slippery, like...like fish scales?" you venture.

"That works too." The molly looks at the commotion now, with a lazy smile. "You might wanna keep that in mind when you're on the road. This time of year, there's no guarantee a car can stop when it sees you."

You turn around completely. "How did you know I was-"

"You're Aster, yeah?" Her eyes move, looking you over.

"Asterpaw," you say, wary.

"Sure." She tilts her head a bit, examining your stump. "Stitches are nearly gone. That's nice."

You instinctively draw what little of the limb you can towards your stomach. "What do you want?"

Your defensiveness only elicits a grin. "Charlie calls you Kiddo, doesn't she?"

"Y-" You can't help bristling. "What does it matter to you?"

"Hm." She watches you for a moment more. Abruptly, she turns and walks off. "See you 'round the campfire."

You don't get a chance to protest before she's turned the corner. You're left standing in the rain and incredibly confused.

Well, that was something.

[Arcaii]

Today is odd.

For starters, you don't encounter a single other cat for the remainder of the day. It's like everyone just sank into the ground as soon as the rain started. You curse Charlie for never actually showing you these magical "hidden spots" for cats to sleep in. You're forced to huddle in front of a store, where the roof has something like tree branches poking out to shield passerby. If it weren't for the fact that very few twolegs were walking around, you'd have been forced elsewhere. They don't even notice you, you blend in so well with the cold, dreary weather. Which is...nice, you guess.

Your hunger becomes too obnoxious for you to ignore after a while, but, like you predicted, water has seeped into almost all of the trash cans, turning everything into a disgusting, mulch-like soup. Even as hungry as you are, you're immediately put off by the look of the insides alone. There's nothing here for you, let alone Jay.

So you sit, cold, wet, hungry and miserable, as the day drags by. It gets dark pretty quickly thanks to the clouds, but it's impossible to gauge the time with both them and the city's huge structures blocking out half of the sky. You resign yourself and head to the grocery store.

Of course, no one's around, but at least there's more shelter here. You crouch beneath a dumpster, where the ground has been elevated enough to stay dry. Little room is left to pull the water out of your fur, but you make it work.

Inevitably, just when you've gotten to your tail, you hear feet. You can see Jay and her crew standing below one of the few trees in this town.


Let them know you're here.
Pretend to be sleeping.
Hide yourself.
Wait for them to find you.

[abxy]

I'll wait for them to find me.

[sweet tooth]

Wait for them to find me

[Comettail76]

I wait for them to find me. I don't see the point in bothering to hide, it isn't like we're on too bad of terms.

[❤ Sunberry ❤]

Wait for them to find me. If they do, then fine, but I'm not initiating the conversation.

[agathokakologic]

I decide to wait for them to find me.

[~*Amber*~]

Hide

[hqmary]

You resume grooming. She can find you herself. You've got to get your tail drier.

There's a few minutes where you only hear the rain as you clean. It isn't until you're doing a once-over that you hear someone say something like, "Under the...?"

You do your best to act natural as you hear feet coming, only looking up when Jay says, "How long have you been under there?"


When did you get here?
Only a little while.
An hour or so ago.
