I've been thinking of making my own rain code persona for a while now (I definitely won't use them for oc x makoto things, definitely)
And I've been bouncing around Forte ideas that might fit them the best that's also unique. Currently, I'm thinking of giving them UV Sight.
UV Sight gives them the ability to see anything under blacklight, the type of UV light used in investigations, making it easier for them to spot evidences that may be missed by the naked eye.
They can turn this vision on and off willingly and also have sunglasses they can wear to act as filters if needed provided by the WDO.
Overuse can cause them headaches and temporary light sensitivity. Thankfully, their eyes are adapted so that they won't suffer from any damages from UV light (or else they might've develop cataracts early on)
This next part isn't real but- There was this thing I read in a fanfic once about how a species that could also see UV light saw that there were patterns on human skin because of normal human cell growth and called them "pretty".
Back then, I thought that was so cool that it completely rewired my brain and somehow I thought that meant human skin glowed in their eyes and emitted pretty patterns in the air when new cells grow within the skin.
Some google searching now showed that this is false and my thoughts on how it actually looked like was completely different.
BUT I think the concept I came up with is still really cool. So I say fuck reality and I'll give my oc the ability to see people's skin glow and emit pretty patterns when new cells grow.
When it comes to normal humans, they can see them normally glow and emit patterns when new cells grow, however these patterns fade when cells decay. On the other hand, homunculi glow brighter and the patterns doesn't show any sort of decay because they don't fade.
My oc would be quite confused by it at first but think nothing of it because it's such a small trivia thing. However... there is someone who glows brighter than the rest....

The pub scene is even funnier when you consider that poor Mr. Brown of Brown's World of Carpets has likely had this longtime pash on Aziraphale and, like everyone on Whickber Street, he has no idea who exactly The Ginger Goth With The Old Car is. He knows the prevailing theory is mafia but Mr. Brown of Brown's World of Carpets has seen Ginger Goth hanging around Mrs. Sandwich and her "Sandwich Shop" and also around the bookshop a bit and also some naked guy was also at the bookshop recently, so... what's the likeliest conclusion drawn by Mr. Brown of Brown's World of Carpets? That the old bookseller's lonely and paying for it.
He sees them come into the pub and thinks Aziraphale is classy like that and is taking the sex worker for a drink first or maybe that's part of it-- he's gone the whole 'boyfriend experience' route. Mr. Brown of Brown's World of Carpets sees Aziraphale with that chest stroke of that Thin Dark Duke he's paying and while Mr. Brown (of Brown's World of Carpets, just FYI) isn't here to judge and gets it as he's lonely, too... and while he does think the bookseller picks some hot ones... he wants to give Mr. Fell the real thing. The kind of love you can only get between two middle-aged, still-sorta-closeted queers like they are. He'll be someone the bookseller can talk to and find some genuine chemistry with, Mr. Brown of Brown's World of Carpets will be, so he decides to shoot his shot and knows the bookseller is skittish from their past interactions, so he goes for the meeting option. He'll have to come over to drop off the chairs, of course. Give them an excuse to talk more, alone, when Mr. Fell is not, erm, entertaining.
And poor Mr. Brown--President of the Whickber Street Shopkeepers and Traders Association, Mr. Brown of Brown's World of Carpets is-- fine, upstanding, boring as all holy fuck fella... He's met by Crowley coming over with drinks and a greeting that says this is neither the first time, nor, he doubts, will it be the last that he's had to Husband the bookseller but again, Mr. Brown of Oh, You Know By Now thinks this is a bit, so he's not intimidated.
"I was just absolutely hitting on him for real, unlike you," is what he basically told Crowley when explaining what they were chatting about.
And Crowley's like lol you got him flustered enough to host this meeting. Good on you, Mr. Whoever the Fuck You Are from Whatever Shop You Run. Look at you *go*. 😍 I've got a new favorite human, Aziraphale.
He's all "you astonish me" to Aziraphale, teasing him like you're leading the poor, balding bastard on, angel. I know it's hard for you to reign in your divine sex appeal but you should maybe try. His heart is only human, after all.
Mr. Brown still thinks Crowley's a sex worker though so he doesn't give up and is all like remember, Mr. Fell, our date is right after work on Thursday in a group setting to set you at ease but I'll see you first to set it all up because I want you and I want to make sure you know I'm not just here for the business meeting.
Crowley: That's it-- I'm adopting you, Ballsy Mr. Carpet. I like your style. But you'll never wear my angel down. We've been married for 6,000 years. I am definitely up for saving you from some demons on Thursday though and making it rain on you and literally any fruity, single shop owner in the greater metro area next season. You're on the deck after my shop lesbians. Now piss off, Mr. Barnes. We haven't been to the pub in ages and you're in my seat.

I just can't stop thinking about how differently Vince treats Rody.
Remember that scene with Vincent and one of the cooks on Day 3? Pretty messed up already, but one detail that makes it even worse caught my attention - cook's posture. Hands still behind his back, no struggle. Complete obedience. Employee is being humiliated and threatened, but there is no sign of resistance. It just shows how inadequately high Chef's demands are. How harsh he is.
And when we have Rody. Fella was late on his second day and also got soaked in the rain making Chef himself take care of that wet dog. Buddy ignores his intied tie even more than dirty dishes in the kitchen, talks to his boss in informal way without a second thought. And ofc can't forget about the elephant in the room - restaurant review mentioning Rody's poor service.
And yet... Vince tolerates him. He simply doesn't pressure that much or even turns a blind eye. Harsh professional who only cares about restaurant's prosperity... suddenly had a change of heart.
Cold-hearted chef: you better not be silly clumsy ginger guy with dog vibes
Rody: hey
Cold-hearted chef: 🤯🤯🤯
I just can't, my heart is melting 😭😭😭
Here, take this stupid hyperbolic meme as a reward for enduring my writing
