It's raining pets! Hallelujah! [Action/Open/Ruby]

Outside

Jaune sticks his hand out the front door of the apartment building he lived in before he dared step out. It's supposed to be raining cats and dogs, as per the newspaper's readings... but he felt nothing. "Ha!" He smiles, "Thank goodness that weather report was wrong. Maybe the rest of them will be too."

Great! Now he can go march to Harry's office in Everglade and tell him that he's gonna sign up. Then Jaune could work his way up to being a real hero! It's kinda like when he joined Beacon - minus the falsifying of documents and all that. So on his way he goes! And he starts passing by the Bay when suddenly...

MEAO!

Jaune hears a terrified meow of a cat who falls from the sky, and he looks up just in time...!

... To have it land on his face.

"WAH! OH MY GOD!" He wails as the tabby starts flipping the heck OUT, kind of like he does. Before it scampers off and darts away though, it leaves his face with a frantic claw-raking. Jaune screams like a little girl as it hurries off, clutching his now scratched-across face - one big set of three claw marks diagonally across his face and a couple nicks taken off his chin.

"OH HORRIBLE PAIN!" He shouts, "NOTHING COULD BE MORE AGONIZING THAN THE PAIN I FEEL AT THIS MOMENT!!"

He kind of flails around for a moment before simply slumping up next to something - a vending machine we'll say. His screaming stops, but now he's all teary-eyed and miserable.

"What is WRONG with this place?!"

FOR RUBY AND ROOM MATES

So, life sucks now, as Jaune is kinda iffy about going out when he could get landed on by another cat - or worse, some kinda big dog. He carefully made his way back through the city towards home. He can just CALL Harry. Jaune's not too stupid though, and takes a route close to buildings, under tarps, or whatever else he had to do to avoid another animal onslaught.

As he goes however, and nears his home again, he hears this sad little whine.

"Eh?" Looking over, he spots this pitiful-looking puppy. It's so small, it must have just gotten its black fur in, and wasn't very old at all. It was around the side of Jaune's building, probably looking for food or something, and when it saw him, it kind of wilted and backed off.

"Aw, hey there little guy," Jaune smiles in a sorry way to the puppy as it tries to growl at him, but it doesn't seem very intimidating at all. Stepping closer, Jaune squats down to be more its level and holds out his hand. "Come here, I'm not gonna hurt you. I'm pretty sure you can take me anyway."

The pup seems apprehensive at first, but as Jaune wiggles his fingers, the little canine inches closer. "You're pretty tiny, aren't you?" Jaune asks, "Come on. You need something to eat."

It takes some time, but Jaune finally takes hold of the puppy and lifts it up to carry it with him. Poor thing seems scared, but more than willing to accept its fate should Jaune decide to kill it - which is totally not going to happen, by the way. Jaune instead brings it inside where he can take care of it. He spends a good deal of time making sure its warm, has some milk to drink and some food to eat... It was an adorable little black wolf puppy - way different than most of the things falling from the sky.

But he got himself an idea...

Jaune was at 402 pretty quickly, and while he knocked on the door, he had a feeling Yang and Ruby never locked it. He'd be right, as he opened it to stick his head in, with a bundled-up something-or-other in his arms. "Hey? Guys? You home?"

[No! No! This wasn't part of the plan. It kicks it's little feet helplessly as Jaune shakes it around.]

[It's a solid plan, but the Met is a bit more solid and heavy than a ball and Jaune's foot is probably going to hurt like hell after kicking it.

It will land in the bay with a splash, but it isn't long before it's helmet surfaces, slowly drifting toward the shore.

This thing can swim bro.]

[It certainly isn't that fast, even with his injured foot Jaune should have no problem getting away from it as it waddles along behind him.]

He looks like he needs a hand! And someone to take pity on him XD

[She's been following you for a while, invisible and out of your earshot because she's been laughing at this for a while. But now she's had enough laughs that she can take pity on you, Jaune. She was going to help you after the cat thing, actually, but... this happened, and she was curious. Sorry, dude.

She appears behind the little robutt, picking it up off the floor with ease and letting its feet dangle as she grips it by it's ....head?]


Okay, okay. I need to stop you before I die laughing. Well done little robot dude, that was the best thing I've seen in a while. [And the fact that, you know, she doesn't think Jaune is completely lame.]

[No! Not again! Why did it's master not come up with a safeguard against this!?

The Met's just going to kick it's feet helplessly while Marceline holds onto it. It's forced to watch Jaune get further and further away.

Oh well, at least it put the fear of God into Jaune, mission accomplished.]

[She's going to raise an eyebrow and chuckle at little kicky feet.]

I wonder if they do little cages that would keep you in it. You'd make an awesome pet.

[A cage? Oh dear. This is terrible.]
