Rain:945: Rain

Synopsis

On a rainy Monday morning, Gavin says he hates rain. Ana cautions him not to say that around Rain, while Gavin retorts that Rain would know he was talking about the weather phenomenon. Rain also expresses her hatred for rain.

Author Notes

A page actually titled "rain" in the comic, Rain. It's not as much about Rain, but rather the rain. Though Rain does express her feelings about rain. ;P

Fun fact: Despite the overall comic title, it has rained only once in the story before this. It's shown to be pouring in one scene in Volume 1's bonus chapter. Though if we want to be technical, it also rains in a flashback referring to that scene in the main pages here (but that is, in fact, the same scene). It's probable that it could have rained on any number of days the story has timeskipped over, but I don't show it happening often.

So why is it used here and now when I never do this? A few reasons. Partly so I could open a new chapter with a dumb joke for a lighter tone than what the previous one ended at. And partly... for other reasons. ;P

March 18, 2013 - Monday morning: It is raining

GRAAH!!
You okay, Gavin? I could hear you swearing from down the hall.
I hate rain.
Don't let her hear you say that.
I think she'd know I'm talking about the obnoxious weather pattern and not her.
Seriously though, the sky just opened up. I swear it went from clear skies to monsoon in seconds.
Glad I got here super early then.
I hate rain...
You know, it's hard to ignore the obvious irony when you say it.
