Rain:1183: Outnumbered

Synopsis

Lo and behold, The Biggest, Most Epic, Most Important Event in Rainverse History...

Randy speaks.

Author Notes

I'm bracing myself for this to be a divisive page. Not because of what's said, but because of who says it. XD

For what it's worth, this was pretty much always the plan. At some point, in some Silent Bob-esque fashion, Randy was going to say something on-screen at some point. It's not that he didn't/couldn't talk, we just never saw it. So when we'd finally see him talk, it had to be for something important. I think this works. ^_^

Also, if you're wondering about his "I came out back in October" remark, that's actually a reference to an old Rain Delay, and my first ever Coming Out Day pic (which, is in October). Chronologically, that post went up just before the Halloween chapter started too, so it all checks out. As for Rob not remembering, and Drew being unsure if it happened, the Delays aren't typically canon. I decided to run with it, though. Even the characters page (which I know is wildly out of date), has always listed Randy as bi because of it.

Anyway, I know it's a weird random page, but still, I hope you all like it. Next time, something completely different. ^_^

Transcript

Seriously, dude.
It's bad enough you've been targeting Drew all year, but I haven't exactly enjoyed enduring all the homophobic cracks either.
You're gay, Randy? But you took a girl to prom!
I'm bi. Taking a girl to prom doesn’t change that.
And what’s the big surprise? I came out back in October, remember?
You did!?
You know... I do remember it, but for some reason, when I think back to it, I never felt sure if it really happened or not...
It’s okay. I think everyone forgot. Once Maria came out a few weeks later, that was all anyone talked about.
No one listens to poor old Randy...
Wait, so I'm the only straight guy out of the three of us?
I mean, yeah. Maybe.

Randy nods
