Warmup #15
Rating: G
Summary:
It's raining on Coruscant.
The Coruscant Guard gets a visit from a Jedi youngling who is very enthusiastic about the change in weather.
Notes:
You'd think there's only so many things I can write that have the Corries and rain in them.
Well, apparently I haven't run out of ideas yet.
~~~
Fox heaved a sigh as the knocking on his door did not cease. He'd already told them to come in, did he have to open the door for them? Really?
He closed his eyes and allowed himself a moment of rest, then pushed himself up and walked to the door panel, pressing the button in a way that would have him writing a requisitioning request for a new one in no time.
A child was standing in the door. They beamed up at him. "Oh good. I don't know your door code."
Which was exactly how Fox liked it. "What are you doing here, Ciph?" He knelt down in front of the small Rodian jetii cadet.
"Thorn asked me to come get you." Their voice dropped to a conspiratorial whisper. "It's raining outside."
Well, that would explain why the Corrie base was deserted. "Alright, I'll just finish-"
Ciph grabbed his arm and tugged on it. "The rain won't be there forever, the datawork can wait. That's what the Force is telling me and you can trust the Force." They nodded very seriously.
Fox rolled his eyes. "Of course. I am very glad the Force could make time to check over my datawork deadlines for me."
Ciph beamed. "Great, come on!"
Seeing as there was no getting out of Ciph's grip when they were this sure of themselves, Fox pressed the door panel to close his office and reluctantly trudged after them. He did like rain, most of the vode did. They'd grown up with it and it just settled something in them to hear it or to have the rain drum onto their armour while they patrolled.
They could move through the rain without any issue. It was a good ally of theirs while the natborns had to slide around and felt generally miserable because of it.
Well, except Ciph, apparently.
"Is your armour waterproof?" Ciph asked curiously as they made their way to one of the side entrances.
Fox hummed. "Occasionally."
Ciph peered up at him suspiciously. "That's not a proper answer."
Fox allowed a grin to spread over his face. "Are your clothes waterproof?"
"Yes." Ciph pointed at their jacket proudly. "I asked the quartermaster for one and they still had raincoats! And rain boots! Have you ever jumped into puddles?"
Fox had. "I think you'll have to show me that."
Ciph gasped. "I will."
~~~
"Thorn." Fox sighed.
Thorn beamed at him, entirely dressed in civvies with a bright red raincoat draped over him. "Fox! I managed to get some for you as well, you have to try this, it's comfortable and it holds off all the rain!"
Apparently it had, and now Thorn's coat was dripping it everywhere.
"Put up a wet floor sign."
Thorn looked down at the puddle. "Ah."
"He's right though!" Ciph jumped in while Thorn made his way to a storage closet. "The coat is warm too!"
"And it's needed for jumping into puddles, I'd assume?"
Ciph beamed. "Absolutely."
Fox was aware that if he'd put up more of a fight, they would have happily let him keep his armour on. The fact was though, that most of Coruscant went into hiding when it started raining properly. They had no idea what to do with the torrents of water when the weather machine failed.
Fox and his vode though, they were experts.
~~~
"You look awesome!" Ciph cheered.
Fox had to admit that the coat really was warm. And it was the same colour as Thorn's, quite close to the Corrie red they wore every day. It was a nice bonus.
"Alright!" Thorn beamed. "We're ready for anything!"
It had been.. a while since Fox had seen Thorn so excited. He just nodded along and followed them outside. It would be good to catch a break.
