The ice isn't the only thing cracking right now. Spring storms can be violent, and the thunder is strong enough to reverberate in your chest. Outside of the chilly cave, a torrential downpour makes it nearly impossible to leave the cave and get your bearings. However, through the weather, and past the giant things that seem to be moving in the weather, something large looms in the distance.
The rain and the moving things make it hard to be sure, and you can't even see the horizon line, so it's either a very large body of water, some sort of man-made structure off in the distance, or both. Until the storm clears, no one can be sure which it is.
1. Someone, though, their voice just barely echoing off the walls, seems to be coming up with theories. Is it you? Do you think this is a waste of time?
2. Are you trying to go out into the hostile weather, risks be damned? Is it because you don't care? Do you think you can survive it?
3. Being trapped in a cave full of people stuck in pillars of ice is weird, isn't it? Isn't it even weirder that you used to be in one and now you're not? Are you going to help the others trapped in the ice? It should be warned that trying to break someone out when they're not awake to help will shatter the pillar, and the person inside.
4. As the storm clears up, night has fallen. Thunder booms in the distance and the sound of insects and wild animals picks up. Wolves howl in the darkness. Is now the time to make a move, or are you going to stay in this uncomfortable, but untouched, shelter?

You're from a city? What's that like - or is Angel Grove just a town near a city - I've never been. To a city, I mean!
no subject
[Just gonna. Casually drop that.
Jason blinks a little in surprise at the way Bruno perks up. Never been to a city? Really? Poor guy.]
Well, I called it a town, but yeah. It's a city. Not a huge one, I guess but we're right near Los Angeles, y'know? [Everyone knew LA!] It's big and the weekly monster attacks are kind of a pain, but it's home. I'm not really sure what else to say, though.
[He shrugs.]
Got anything specific in mind?
no subject
Moon.
[ ...Well, that's. a thing.
Moon-invaders sound a lot less likely to be "unjustly maligned" ...or. real, to be quite honest. He doesn't want to think this fellow is lying, of course, but... maybe it's a joke? Or possibly the guy just has no idea what he's talking about. ...Or maybe there really is a witch on the moon who invades a specific city on the regular, he supposes it's possible. ]
Nothing specific in mind, no, I was just, uh, wondering... I'd have to see the place to have better questions, really, but uh - so why does this moon-lady attack your town so often?
no subject
[Just. Going on, as if the whole 'moon witch' deal isn't actually incredibly strange. That's just his life now. Even if it sounds like total and utter fantasy to everyone around him.
At Bruno's question, he stops and blinks, drawing himself up a bit.]
...You know, I never thought about that?
[A deep thinker, Jason isn't.]
no subject
[ Has anyone tried that yet? Bruno doesn't want to volunteer to be the one if not, but... somebody needs to ask... ]
There's got to be some reason for it, surely attacking a whole town all the time takes effort on her part...
Maybe there's something, if dealt with, that will mean she stops causing problems. ...Or um, if she can't stop, maybe she'll try to help with fixing the problems after, at least...
[ If she's responsible for the current situation, and shows up, should he ask? Hm. There's got to be somebody who'd be better suited to it, but, well... what if everyone's thinking that...? HM. ]
no subject
[Evil taunting, sure. Making her monsters grow? Oh yeah. Talking? Not so much.
He's not even sure how to contact her. The moon's pretty far off, unless he could just teleport there? That'd be something to ask Billy or Zordon about, though.]
I wouldn't hold out much hope, but it's at least worth a shot. I guess someone should've thought of that before now, huh?
