Tropedia

  • Before making a single edit, Tropedia EXPECTS our site policy and manual of style to be followed. Failure to do so may result in deletion of contributions and blocks of users who refuse to learn to do so. Our policies can be reviewed here.
  • All images MUST now have proper attribution, those who neglect to assign at least the "fair use" licensing to an image may have it deleted. All new pages should use the preloadable templates feature on the edit page to add the appropriate basic page markup. Pages that don't do this will be subject to deletion, with or without explanation.
  • All new trope pages will be made with the "Trope Workshop" found on the "Troper Tools" menu and worked on until they have at least three examples. The Trope workshop specific templates can then be removed and it will be regarded as a regular trope page after being moved to the Main namespace. THIS SHOULD BE WORKING NOW, REPORT ANY ISSUES TO Janna2000, SelfCloak or RRabbit42. DON'T MAKE PAGES MANUALLY UNLESS A TEMPLATE IS BROKEN, AND REPORT IT THAT IS THE CASE. PAGES WILL BE DELETED OTHERWISE IF THEY ARE MISSING BASIC MARKUP.

Travis might sadly feel it always rains on them, but this is a trope of joyous precipitation. Romance is blooming, life is good and the lovers are caught in the rain, but fret not: they are so happily in love they, dance, play, kiss! Soaking clothes and all, the surroundings don't bother them: they are together and in love.

This is for one of those moments in the romance arc, where there might be a montage of happy moments to depict the pinnacles of new love, or just of the characters' love reaching an apex in the story. It can be a moment where one character finally admits/declares their love and the backdrop of rain serves as the crescendo. Another scenario could be where misunderstandings are cleared up and the lovers share a reconciliatory moment in the rain.

Often the catalyst for finally letting true feelings out, settling matters and usually with the climax of a cathartic kiss to complete the moment.

Compare Snow Means Love, Together Umbrella and Caught in the Rain. Subtrope of Empathic Environment
