[a quick audio transmission, a few seconds at most:]

"--rrent magnitude of SN 1987A?"

"What the hell are you talking about?"

***

[a few hours later there is another, a bit longer in duration:]

"What was the number you lost?"

"Fuck you!"

***

[half an hour later:]

"How will you win now that you are weak?"

"...shut up. Just shut up."

[and now, a transmission that doesn't end, mainly because he doesn't have the fingers necessary to turn off the CAT.

this is propped up against the front door of his house - only minus the jacket, because he never did get it back.

the plushie seems to have an expression of fury, clenching and unclenching its little mitten hands into fists]

[With thinly veiled amusement Fuu scrolls through the CAT's phone list until she finds the contact for Miss Osculia at the Mayor's Office. The CAT is just so wonderfully convenient! Minus the bizarre trouble with the weather forecast, it is quite the useful tool. It even lists all the people who have been summoned here. (Sadly, Hikaru and Umi are not listed.)]

[Taking a breath to settle herself she has the CAT call Miss Osculia. It being late afternoon, she hopes that she's not catching her at a busy time...]

[Outdoors is the place Kamina finds himself when the mayor's latest announcement plays. He was on his way to the clinic to see Dr. Resarci, hoping that the doctor at least might be able to get him back into battle and patch up this scenario rather than a wound. That trip is halted as Kamina stares, scowling slightly and muttering under his breath while the message plays.]

I don't like you face very much, old man... Tch, you're like all the others. What're you trying to pull?

[Before he becomes too irritated with the latest intrusion, the weather icon clicks out of place to show a cloud with snowflakes falling from it. That's all the warning he gets since reading any messages that appear is still somewhat beyond his current abilities.]

What the he--?

[The wind picks up, the sky darkens, and suddenly snow begins falling all around. Kamina takes a step back to gape at the sky -- he hasn't seen snow before.]

[Clenches his fist and yells at the sky.] Is this supposed to beat my spirit? [Kamina shivers, suddenly a lot less fiery as it sinks in just how cold the temperature has gotten. In combination with the snow and wind, it's far beyond the normal desert atmosphere he's accustomed to. Not one to be beaten, however, Kamina snorts and continues his trek towards the clinic.]

[Or at least he goes in the direction he thinks the clinic is in -- everything is covering up with snow!]

[Xion is also outside when the weather report comes on. After her conversations and free meal at the restaurant, she decided to just explore the town at her own pace. If she finds the answer to her clue, she finds the answer. She took her time wandering around, seeing what store sold what and what kind of food was made at this restaurant and that restaurant. She's on her way to finish exploring the square when her CAT turns on.

She checks her CAT after the mayor's message -- and then performs a double-take.] Huh? "A chance of showers and thunderstorms... rain followed by freezing rain and sleet. Today's high 75... 'eff'... and 25... 'see'. Today's low minus 10 'eff' and minus 23 'see'. Winds out of the Southeast at 40 to 50... em-pee-aych."

[She has no idea what most of that means, but from what she does know, she can tell something's not quite right.] But... That's not what the mayor -- Gah!

[The rain hits her suddenly, accompanied by a lightning strike that is much too close for comfort. Close enough that she can see where it landed, even. She stares at the spot the lightning struck incredulously and finds herself immensely glad for her Organization coat, what with its hood and weather resistan -- ] Aaaahhh! [THAT lightning strike was even closer!]

[Xion's just going to start making a mad dash for the nearest building, thankyou. Luckily for her, it's the library. Unluckily for her, the rain has become sleet, and the ice is all ready acclimating on the ground, making it slippery -- enough so that she finds her feet moving out from underneath her, sending her crashing to the ground.] Ow!

[The landing has turned on her CAT's video function, though at first all anyone can make out is the inside of her coat pocket and the sounds of sleet, thunder, and cloth rustling.] Ugh... [Xion tries to get to her feet carefully.] Didn't the mayor say it's sunny...?

[Unfortunately for one Irving, he enjoys taking walks, especially in the morning, so he is outside by the Town Pavilion when the CAT activates.]

Thunderstorms and a high of 43? Celsius? What sort of weather is—

[It is the sort of weather, apparently, that Brax gets, along with freezing rain and sleet. Not to mention the handy 60 mph wind which would like to push him South-West. Worst wind direction ever.]

[Prioritizing admirably, he puts his hand on his hat to keep it from blowing away. The CAT, alas, is rather haphazardly shoved into his pockets, somewhat ruining its view, but the audio is still running]

Some meteorologist's contract really needs to be terminated.

[around 8:15 a.m. every CAT and vidscreen in every single part of town turns on, a short instrumental montage plays featuring parts of the town at their finest before the images focus in on the town hall, and then fades away to show the friendly visage of Mayor Caligin, and his office, as it fills the screen. he flashes a winning, sparkling smile before he speaks--but don't worry, the message is pre-recorded so the Mayor won't be seeing any of his people in any...compromising positions.]

Good morning citizens of Luministi! I am very proud to learn that you are going out and exploring our fine town. I hope our little Verita has treated you well. No doubt she has; she's a very good girl. [smiles fondly]

Now, I have been informed that there are a number of concerns--[he cuts off, his attentions looking to the side of the camera. a piece of paper and a hand belonging to Miss Osculia comes in to view and Caligin smiles warmly as he accepts the paper. his eyes quickly scan the contents of the notice before he glances up.]

Oh, what wonderful news! It appears that our new up-to-the-minute weather predicting software is ready for a test run. All pertinent updates are being sent to your CAT units as we speak and should finish uploading by the time I am done--[there's a pleasant 'ding' noise. Caligin picks up his own CAT, which might look slightly darker to those with a discerning eye--or is it a trick of the black and white image?--and nods approvingly.] A sunny 72°F with clear skies, a slight breeze and low humidity. Sounds like my kind of day.

[he clears his throat, quickly setting his CAT down.] As I have said, this is merely a test, so if you encounter any problems, please inform Miss Osculia.

Have a pleasant day, Luministi!
