you were in the fallout and you lost some friends //
The only strange thing he’s noticed about the rain and having a metal arm? It’s the annoying plink, plink, plink that constantly barrages him anytime he steps outside. It’s bearable, for the most part, but it’s one little thing that nags at his mind. So he takes as long as he can in the Atheneum, picking between which book to read for himself since he’d gotten one for Isla in Halo, and when he’s finally picked one? It’s been tossed into the bag around his shoulders and he heads back out into the rainy night with a quiet sigh.
He hasn’t been gone too long, at least, not long enough for another random fire to sprout – he’s pretty sure – but he is a bit distracted as he leaves the Atheneum and nearly slips right into that large puddle – his boot coming down into the hole quite hard with a large splash and if it weren’t for the metal arm that clings to the wall beside it, he’d have likely fallen on his ass. “Nice. Real nice.” He half mutters, pulling his boot out, glancing around to ensure he’s alone (which he definitely thinks he is). “Hm, well... Might as well match.” He mumbles, before he’s splashing his other boot down into the puddle with the glimmer of a boyish smile crossing his face.
