Rain:313: Necessity

(Redirected from 313:Necessity)

Synopsis

Author Notes

This is a really interesting page, and I personally like it a lot. The images depict smiles on every face in every panel. And yet, Rain’s narration has this subtle hint of melancholy. I know I shouldn’t be patting myself on the back, but I really do love the dichotomy.

The second panel may require a little bit of explaining (not the reference; I’m hoping people just get that ^_^). But for those of you who might not remember, Rain lent her falsies to Rudy for the “Ruby scheme”. At the end of Chapter 12, she narrated that she’d never gotten them back at the end of the night. And for the keen eye, Rain was also unusually flat-chested throughout Chapter 13. Just… little things I did. (Also, I know tissues make awful bra inserts.)

The final panel marks the first time we’re seeing Rain’s braid since. I’ve been giving her pigtails so much lately, I forgot how much I loved the braid. Her newest purple/black party dress is strongly based on one I own, except the purple and black parts are switched.

Transcript

Of course I spent time with Rudy too. Probably the most out of anyone. And he's usually good at cheering me up.
I hadn't seen him since the day at the mall. It was wonderful being able to resolve certain things at last.

Rain finally got her falsies back! While equipped, she no longer has to stuff her bra with tissues!

In all seriousness, we did have a lot of fun.
Rudy, please. Ha. It's embarrassing. Ha ha ha!
No. It's adorable, and you know it. Now open wide~!
Aunt Fara said to make up for the lousy Christmas we had, I should invite everyone over for New Year's Eve.
So Rudy, Gavin, Maria, Ky, and Chanel came over for what would hopefully be a fun night. Truthfully, I wasn't going to allow it to be anything but.
I was smiling more with my friends, but still, after the incidents with Aiken and Kellen, I needed this... badly.
