skipping stones ... [active/open]
Characters: Gumi, YOU, ANYBODY.
Location: Outside, near that darned lake.
Time: Late Afternoon/Near Sunset.
Content: So Gumi feels she might've messed something up and she's frustrated. She's outside to try and make herself feel better.
Format: Any style goes!
Warnings: A very frustrated and potentially pissy evil-but-not-really genius girl? BEWARE.
Gumi grunted, chucking a stone across the water and watching it skip. She used to do this when she was angry back when she was young, back at the monastery ... it was calming then. She hadn't done it in some time, but on a wing and a prayer, maybe it'd work again.
It seemed to be working, at least a little bit. Now she was focusing more on how far she could make the stones skip across the glassy surface of the water instead of how crappy she felt. If she ran out of stones, she really couldn't be sure how she'd act around people, but this was helping for the time being, right?
Right.
She chucked another stone at the water, watching as it sunk.
She growled, picking up another stone and trying it again. It skipped a couple of times, then sunk.
... Better, but not her best.
