Video - Middle of the Night of August 23-24

[guitar_case_vagabond]

[Raye being in a sour mood on one of these network posts of hers isn't a rare sight by any stretch of the imagination, but this time she's not ranting or raving or looking even particularly grumpy, but she's definitely not happy as she stands out in the street, leaning against a wall. She definitely doesn't look good though and when she speaks up at least there's almost a tremor in her voice.]

Hey. So, uh, I was doing pretty good about keeping stuff under wraps around home and all but... I guess somebody picked up what I looked like when I was grabbing that teleporter thing. So, that... kinda just blew up.

[She blows out a breath and rubs the back of her arm across her eyes, shaking her head and growling a bit.]

Look, fuck the details but does anybody out there have a couch or something? Me and Senketsu are gonna need a place to crash for--

-- for awhile.

[Oh my god, they're all nerds.]

Heh.

[Raye manages a weak laugh at the barely-evaded archaeology lecture.]

Thanks. I really do appreciate it.

[jasminebloominginshadow]

Again, it's no trouble. We'll set you up in Lily's old room for the night and we can talk about long term things in the morning.

[Jasmine nodded enthusiastically]

Just be warned... dad's breakfasts can be a bit... [gagging noises]

[guitar_case_vagabond]

Right.

[Raye nods, then glances toward Jasmine.]

Uh, I'm pretty good at breakfast. I could... probably handle that?

[Breakfast's the least she can do, really.]

[Jasmine and Rentarou both stop, and exchange glances. Then look towards Raye, as if begging]

Oh god, please!

Nothing has been edible since Lily left!

Save us from ourselves!

[guitar_case_vagabond]

[Raye paused a step, blinking at the sudden desperation in both of their tones and despite everything, gives a short, barely-audible laugh.]

Alright, alright. I got it.

[jasminebloominginshadow]

[and here comes the over-the-top, fake sobbing]

Thank you so much!

[Jasmine, meanwhile, is just glad to see Raye smile]

[guitar_case_vagabond]

[Seriously? For crying out....]

O-okay, okay. Just cut that out, jeez.

[Just no longer having to worry about where she was going to spend the night is a big load off her mind. This... helps a little more.]
