goldenglasses | [Accidental Voice]

Vash, you're talking to yourself.

[Someone might still be asleep] Powdered too!!!! Are… are those sprinkles!?

[ Okay, okay, she won't yell at him to wake up, but she's taking this as a sign for something. She'll go in, lay the cloth on his head, and then head out for a bit. ]

[Snore. Mumblings about all the delicious varieties of donuts!]

[ She'll come back a little while later, change that cloth, and shake his shoulder. ]

Hey, Vash... wake up.

[He blinks his eyes then sits up with a yawn] Something wron-[Oh hi there cloth! Blinks down at it as it falls into his lap. Hm… he probably should have noticed that sooner.]

[ She shakes her head. Her hands are behind your back right now. ]

Feeling any better?

[He scratches the back of his head with a small laugh] A little bit. Don’t feel cold anymore at least. How are you feeling?

I'm alright. I'm congested again, but some rest has helped me.

You talk in your sleep, did you know that? [ She sits on the edge of the bed, keeping whatever was behind her back at her side so it's hidden. ]

[eep. Turning a bit red] Uh… I did?

Mm. [ She takes the paper bag she's ducked beside her and hands it to him. ] You were asking for these.

[Huh… paper bag? What would he have been-]

DONUTS!!!!!!!! [Eating one NOW!]

[ She laughs lightly. That was Vash's normal self, alright. He was healthy. ]

[Om nom nom! Between a mouthful] Mmmhm! These are so good!

I thought this would be good medicine. [ She laughs a little. ]

They can cure everything! [Playfun grin] You should eat some too to keep from getting sick!

Ah, no, that's alright.

Thanks. I'm feeling much better now.

[ She nods. ]

You're welcome.

[ She pauses a moment. ]

Vash... what does... what does she tell you, in your dreams?

Well, normal things I guess. A lot of times she sings. Actually... she tells me I'm too serious a lot...

Edited 2009-12-07 17:48 (UTC)

Haha, really? She thinks so? You must be a very different person, in there.

Well... I do ask some serious questions sometimes...

[Sigh; playful pout] The meaning of life is so hard to figure out...

I don't think it's something you can ever find a real answer for.

[Nods] She says that everyone's ticket is blank. So I think she means that it's up to everyone to figure out what the meaning of their own life is.

I like that... I think it makes sense.

She's pretty good a putting things in terms I can understand.

I'm glad you still have her with you. It sounds like she's a big help.

I was worried she would leave when... [Naw - he doesn't want to think about that] But I should have known better.

You were the only one who would have left you.

I-I'm sorry. For putting you through all that.

Vash, it's been a long time since then, for me. I'm just glad you're alright. What worried me the most was you.

[hasn't been that long for him though - but he'll give you a smile] I'm sorry. I won't forget what you said that day.

You'd better not!

If I do - I give you permission to slap me. Just... don't think I'll let you get away with it ALL the time. ~~[Like you do all the time anyway]~~

Can I get that in writing?

I suppose - but I could just say you took advantage of my delicate state!

But I'm sick, too.

I'm sicker! [You'd think he'd be too old for these kinds of games]

Maybe in the head.

Yea-! [Waiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit] Hey!

[ She covers her mouth and laughs. ]

Picking on me while I'm sick! [Pout]

Edited 2009-12-10 23:07 (UTC)

I'm sorry... is there anything you want?

More donuts!

... Maaybe that can be arranged.

Really! [Vash will be heartbroken if the donuts are a lie too...]

Really.

Oh boy! Maybe this place has some with glaze!

Maybe.

But these were great. Thanks Meryl. [Big smile for you!]

You're welcome, Vash.

Oh! I almost forgot! I talked to Kurtis! He's doing just fine! In fact he was GLAD to be dropped over the water! Apparently if he's thrown against something hard he explodes.

He-- wh-- He EXPLODES?

Hahaha! Yeah. Surprised me too. [Continues laughing like it's no big deal.]

[ She sighs heavily. ]

This place just gets stranger and stranger.

Yeah... and here I thought some of the guys on our world were strange. I think this place has them beat.

I'll have to agree with you on that one.

It doesn't matter where I go does it? [There is a bit of a playful tone in that voice though.]

Edited 2009-12-12 05:02 (UTC)

I guess it's your black cloud, Mr. Vash.

I bet you like it. I must be easier to keep track of when I can't skip town.

It does make my life simpler. But, I'm not an insurance agent, here. I haven't done anything along those lines in a while, now.

Should I go start some trouble then~! [And you will ALWAYS be his insurance girl!]

Don't even think about it, Mr. Vash. [ D'aww-- wait, not sure if endearing. ]

What! Don't need you getting rusty insurance girl! [XD A bit of both really!]

There's no way I'll get rusty. I'm a master at my work.

We'll see about that!

Are you doubting my abilities?

Mayhaps!

Well, I don't have anything to worry about with you around.

I do my best!

I guess you're a natural at your work, too.

You could say that! [Oh... uh sneeze!]

I guess I should get your donuts.

[He grins] Well, it's pretty cold out. Maybe it can wait; don't need you getting sick again too.

Mm, true. I would probably get sick if I keep going out.

Yeah... it would be bad if we BOTH got stuck in bed.

We'd starve.

And then you couldn't bring me donuts later!

No, not if I was bedridden.

ALRIGHT! I've decided! You should stay home and warm so you can get me donuts later!

I think I can go along with that decision.

I thought it was a pretty good plan!

Mm. [ She smiles softly. ] Here, how's your fever? [ She reaches a hand out to press to his forehead. ]

[He's still a bit warm; but nothing serious. He smiles at your concern.] I'll be alright.

It's almost gone. Still a little warm.

I'm sure I'll be up and about to cause you stress in no time. [Smile.]

I'm overjoyed. [ She smirks and withdraws her hand. ]

Just need some rest. I'll be fine. Promise.

[ She nods and goes to stand. ] I should let you get to that.

M-Meryl? [A pause then a smile] Thanks.

[ She looks a bit surprised, then smiles, a bit shy. ] You're welcome, Vash. Get some sleep.

[ She touches his shoulder a moment before leaving. ]

[He'll give a small nod and smile as you go. He'll go back to sleep after you're gone.]

Vash?

...you okay?

Mmmhmm. Sprinkles. [snore]

Edited 2009-12-07 06:24 (UTC)

[...talking in his sleep? And snoring. Juuust like Zoro. We have ways of fixing this.]

Hey. Vash.

Edited 2009-12-07 06:25 (UTC)

Fill'er up grandma!

[There goes the journal flying to the floor] GAHHHHHH! Wha-[THUNK!] Aiiiaiai.... [Someone may be on the floor now you meanie]

Edited 2009-12-07 06:44 (UTC)

Morning.

[Muffled from his face being planted in the floor] Morning… [Pulls self upright] Is everything alright fair maiden?

I'm fine. You're the one that sounds like hell. What happened? I thought you were going to the desert.

You sure? I thought I heard someone screaming…

And I was…

[Wait, wait, she remembers something--]

Did you get ditched in the lake?

Y-yeah... [sniffles] How's Brook doing?

About as good as you, I'd say. Need anything?

Naw, I'll be fine. [Nervous laughter] Didn't realize he couldn't swim.

It's not the thing that really jumps to mind when they meet a skeleton, Vash. Don't sweat it.

Luffy can't swim either. Neither can Chopper. [You know. Just FYI.]

R-really?

I would think it would be a nice skill to have when you spend most of your time on the sea.

It's because of the fruit they eat that gives them their power. Carries one hell of a curse for a sailor.

[You know. Phenomenal cosmic power. Itty bitty swimming skills.]

That's... annoying? [coughs] I'll have to apologize later... wasn't excepting the trip to end in the lake.

It's not your fault.

How did you end up in the lake, anyway? I never got round to asking Brook.

Not... exactly sure. We ran into this weird guy in the desert. I think he teleported us... [Sniff]

Teleported you?

...wasn't Kefka, was it?

Oh! No!

...although... I dunno what Kefka looks like under his make-up. [Cough] This was a guy with long blonde hair and two different colored eyes.

[Blinks. Oh hello thar.] Did he rant about worthless humans, too?

He said we weren't very entertaining a few times.

Wow. Guy's got a pretty small repertoire. That's Yuber, I think. Ran into him in the snowball fight, too.

I- [Opps, sorry coughing fit Nami]

Edited 2009-12-07 07:43 (UTC)

...are you sure you're okay? Remember I live with a doctor. He'd be happy to check up on you.

I'm fine. Just need some rest is all really.

Mmm, if you say so. [Is totally going to be throwing the reindeer at you anyway, kthx.]

[Well, he did just give a donut to Brook... so obviously he's sick.] A drop in a lake will do that. [Sniff] A couple warm nights in bed can do wonders.

Oh, I know. Well, at least you've got Meryl to look after you there.

I do! She brought me some donuts!!!!!!!!!

[Snicker.] Donuts?

YEAH! A whole bag! Just for me! ~~minus one for Brook~~

I dunno, Vash. You'll get fat.

No I won't! I need these to get better!

Like Luffy needs meat?

[Except Vash is joking around] Well! They're an excellent pick me up!

[So's Nami |D]

Well as long as you get lots of fluids and stuff. Did you find who you were after in the desert?

Well... no. But it's alright! Turns out one went home and the other was in the village all alone so it's alright!!

[...hesitantly.] Weren't you looking for three people?

Well... we didn't find the clown man... but that's probably not a bad thing. Evil tends to stick around and is hard to get rid of.

Heh. Good point. Well, he'll turn up again when he wants to cause trouble, I bet.

And I think people appreciated that you tried to find the others, anyway.

As long as everyone is safe I'm happy. [sneeze]

[D'aww.]

Get some rest, Vash. And get better soon.

[Finishes up last donut with a sad sigh] I guess I'll try to get a bit more sleep. [Yes. He's really crying] I'm out of donuts!!!!!!!

[Snort.] Go to sleep, you big baby.

Hm... although. There's still the one I was saving for Brook... [Oh wait... journal still on] Yes ma'am. I'll get some sleep.

...are you okay?

[Luckily Vash was given a heart attack not too long ago and is still awake otherwise you would have gotten mumbled at] I’m fine! [Sneeze]

You have donuts?!

[Obviously he should talk to Chopper about this kind of medicine. Surely if he slipped him a few as well, the doctor would have no complaints]

I do!!! Meryl brought me some!!

[Have an envious Brook] I certainly wish I had some donuts.

[He does have soup though. You can probably hear him slurping it]

Hm. [aw... he does kinda owe Brook for the near drowning experience] I guesssssssssss I could save you one.

[~~Though technically Brook owes Vash for saving him from drowing in the first place~~ Of course he does]

Really? [Sneeze] One with sprinkles?

Sure! I'll set it aside or I'll accidently eat it.

You don't sound too well. [sniff]

Wonderful!

Me? I'm all right. [Skeletons can't get sick. Pay no attention to the sneezing. That's not being sick] I think you sound worse than I!

I'll be fine. Just need some rest!

That's very good to hear! I suppose I should allow you to do just that then. [But he's so booored. And he wants that donut. Oh well, maybe he'll just send someone over later to get it for him.]

You too. Sorry you got sick!

Oh it's no matter! To tell the truth, I don't think I'm sick at all! [Just oddly miserable. He hasn't been sick since he was alive though, so how could he be sick now?]

Really? Luka mentioned something about your bones possibly breaking. THat didn't sound good.

Oh yes, that was very unpleasant! Fortunately I was able to warm up, however, so it did not become an issue!

Oh good!

Did you find donuts, Vash?

I did!! Meryl brought me some! [Between a mouthful] Mmmhm! They’re so good!! Nice and fresh!

[She chuckles a bit.]

You seem happy. How have you been those days?

[Sorry he has poor manners - talking with mouth full!] Pretty good! Found almost all the people I was looking for. I wound up in the lake. But Meryl brought me some donuts and people are safe so that’s good. AHHHHHHHHHHHH! Delicious!

Dropped at the lake... Ah, you where with Brook, right? Did you got sick?

[Sniffles a bit] Yeah... I was. And I did - but only a little. I'll be better with a bit of rest!

Be sure to not pass it to Miss Meryl, she doesn't need to get sick again... She's not sick again, is she?

Well... she fell into the lake too. But so far seems alright.

()

Someone doesn't deserve donuts if he gets his friend sick.

Why does everyone blame ME!?

Because you should take care of her. You also got Brook on the verge of having all his bones breaking.

[That's not a teasing smile what you peek over there, nope.]

[Not noticing the smile. Zooming in on the breaking of the bones] Is he alright!? I was just talking to him! He just sounded sick! Oh man!

He's dead.

Then again he was already dead.

[Laughing at you now.]

[Well before you reveal it was all a joke... Vash is so VERY close to crying]

GAH! So mean! [He clutches his chest] You made this poor thing go bada-boom, bada-boom!

[Still laughing a bit before stopping, she's still smiling though.]

Aww, I'm sorry. I'll compensate you, yes? What do you want?

More donuts? [He already ate all the ones Meryl gave him]

You really remind me of my brother...

[Laughs a bit.] Fine, I'll make you donuts, anything else?

Oh you WILL! Gee thanks!!

No! The donuts will be fine!

[Chuckles, it's like KAITO but with donuts instead of icecream.]

Do you want them today or tomorrow? It won't be right now, I have to prepare them.

Mmmhm! As soon as possible! They're best when they're fresh!

Don't you think you have ate enough for today? You should eat other things to get better soon. We have to go make more snowmen before the snow melts.

One can never have too many doughnuts!

Your health can. I don't want you to get stomach ache besides a cold.

They won't make me sick!

They will. Too much food of the same kind will affect your health and donuts aren't the healthiest elements of the food chain.

But they make me happy! And feeling happy makes me feel better!

They will make you equally happy if you have them tomorrow instead of all of them today. If you ate them all now, tomorrow there would be no donuts for you.

[OMG! Logic! But still... that means none today...] All riiiiiiiiiiiiight... [pout]

Awww, don't pout. Isn't there anything else you want? If it's not donuts I could bring it to you now.

Well actually... if you could bring us some more soup maybe? Meryl isn't the healthiest either and that way neither of us would have to cook dinner later.

Okay, I'll be there in a bit. Can I use your kitchen? That way I can be sure the food is warm enough, if not I can carry it from my home.

Sure! Sounds fine!

...Doughnuts?

Yeah!! They’re delicious! I really like the plain ones - but there are so many delicious delicacies to chose from! The glorious powdered ones! The playful sprinkles! The royal glazed!

What are they exactly??

YOU MEAN YOU'VE NEVER HAD A DONUT BEFORE!

That's TERRIBLE! It's HORRIBLE! It's a downright CRIIIIIIME!

U-uhm, but...It's not like I can eat them!!

And I don't know the name of very many foods anyways!

Why not? Are you allergic?

Allergic..? No. I can't eat anything made from a plant or animal.

Wow... really? That's... like everything isn't it?

Yes. The only things I can have are milk, and honey.

Well! Milk and honey are delicious too!

They are!

And! You don't have to worry about burning down a house with cooking!

Yes, that's a very good thing!

Vash? Hey, you okay?

Yeah. I'm alright. I was just talking in my sleep. Sorry!

But hey! I think I heard Miyabi over the journals! Sounds like she's in the village somewhere and is safe!

Oh, I see!

Yeah! She came back home!

I'm glad she was okay and not lost in the desert!

Yeah, I'm glad too! Thanks for helping me look for her, Vash!

No problem at all!

What are you doing?

[Psh. Sleeping of course! You get a bit of snoring in response before being yelled at] Oh no! All... [snore] gone!

[What.] ... Hey.

[Might need to try a little harder. He's sick and out of it a little XD] Closed....? Nooooooo!

Hey!

[There's a bit of muttering. Someone's awake finally but not sure what woke him. Yawwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwn!] Weird dream.

[... He's almost speechless for a moment.] You were sleeping?

[Oh! Why hello thar journal! Picking it up now.] Oh! Hello~! Yeah! I fell asleep looking over the journal.

What were you dreaming about? It sounded pretty terrible. I think.

Oh! It was wonderful! There was this room filled with donuts and beer! So many different kinds! IT was beautiful!

But then it ran out!!!!!!!!!!

[That was the terrible dream that he had?]

Is that supposed to be a nightmare?

The worst kind!

Hardly!

But there were no more donuts!

And?

There were no more left to eat! It was horrible!

It's not exactly the end of the world.

I KNOW! It was WORSE!

No. It wasn't. It was the furthest thing from it.

[He sighs sadly then moves on] How have you been!?

Fine! I'd ask the same of you, but it doesn't seem like that nightmare did much for you.

Well... I fell into the lake and got a little sick from it. So I'll blame the nightmare on that.

You fell into the lake? Hwo did you end up close enough to fall in?

Well... actually... we ran into this blond hair guy in the desert and he teleported us over top of the lake.

He... teleported you over the lake? From the desert?

Yeah... if he didn't attack us first for no reason it would have been really impressive. But I was a bit distracted by the not dying and being cold and wet thing...

Did you happen to catch his name? [Because Edge would be the best ninja ever if he could single-handedly beat this guy.]

[He shakes his head] No, he didn't say it. But a friend says she thought it was a guy named Yuber.

Alright! I'll keep that name in mind!

Yeah he-WAIT! You're not thinking about going AFTER him are you!?!

Of course not!

Oh! Good! Because he used some really weird lightening magic stuff that looked really dangerous.

[Is that a challenge?]

Doesn't sound all that dangerous.

IT'S LIGHTENING!? How is that not dangerous!?

You can just evade the attack.

I... don't think the guy who got hit by it would say it's an easy thing to avoid.

He simply wasn't fast enough.

It's lightening. Kinda hard to outrun that. [Vash's tone just went a bit lower. It's a friend of his you're talking about]

No need to outrun. Just a simple side step would suffice. [Like he notices that. He's too caught up in his own ego.]

Yeah. And get caught in the after blast.

Maybe a large leap, then? [Because people can do that.]

Have you SEEN the damage lightening can do?

Of course. I'm just saying that nothing is unavoidable.

[Alright. He'll give you that one.] I suppose there are flukes... [But not much he's gotten a sneaky suspicion you ARE planning on going after this guy and he wants you to REALLLLLLLY think about it.]

No flukes! Just skill! [Yeah, Edge is totally considering it, btu he probably won't out of his way for it.]

Hey! I believe very much in the power of flukes! They're a great thing! [And keep him alive.]

It's just skill, any way you look at it!

Tell that to my friend Meryl would you?

[That sounds like a female's name. Edge is interested.] Maybe I will.

Although I doubt she'd believe you. She's convinced EVERYTHING I do is a fluke. Okay most... [lie - only some] But not all!

I can be very convincing! [Or so he likes to think. Once again, ego.]

Good luck with her. She's very stubborn. [Oh yeah... and sneeze - he's suppose to be sick! XD]

I'll get onto that as soon as I can. Hope you feel better.

I will, just need more rest.

Then you should probably be resting.

I believe I was resting before someone woke me up! [But there is a playful tone in that voice]

If you could call that resting. [Yeah. He took a cheap shot at your horrible nightmare, Vash.]

True! I should thank you for saving me from that nightmare!

You're very welcome!

Thank you! But yes... I suppose I should try to get more sleep without nightmares. [Sniff]

Get going, then!

Yes sir! [snuggles back into bed and shuts the journal this time... instead of falling asleep with it open]

Uhm, Mr. Vash?

[Sorry, the Vash you are trying to reach has eaten donuts and gone back to bed. Please leave a message after the snore.

Snore.

Although he's still mumbling in his sleep.] Creme filled...

Huh? "Creme filled" ...? [wat]

Sprrrrriiiiiiiinkles

What? Why are you-- ... Ohhhh, you're sleep-talking, aren't you, Mr. Vash!

[snore]

Yeah, you're definitely sleep-talking ... M-Maybe I should leave him alone for now ...?

Mmmmmmhm... pretty flower. Eat.

----What?! No, flowers aren't for eating, even in dreams!

[Hm! A yell! Vash blinks awake.] Hm... wha-?

Edited 2009-12-09 00:23 (UTC)

O-oh no, I woke you up, didn't I ...

Oh! Flonne! It's alright! [Rubs his eyes and yawns] It's not good to sleep too long after all!

Well, if you say so ...

Uhm, do you usually talk in your sleep like that?

I was talking in my sleep?

Yes, you were-- Oh, and don't worry! It wasn't anything bad or embarrassing!

[This look he's giving over the journals says he doesn't believe that] Did my sleep talking bother you? I'm sorry!

Oh no, don't apologize! It didn't bother me at all!

That's good! How are the flowers? [As he's stuck and bed and can't see them]

Huh? Oh, yes, they're doing very well! Some of the newer sprouts are starting to bloom now, too!

Really!? That's great!!

Hehe, yep! Maybe you could stop by the shop and take a look at them sometime!

I'll come see them when I'm feeling better!

Huh? ----Oh no, you're sick?

Just a little cold. I got dropped into the lake. I'm already feeling much better.

Dropped in the lake? Wow, that's weird ... but at least you're feeling better, so I guess it's okay.

Yeah. Me and some friends went to look for some missing people out in the desert. But we ran into this weird guy with blond hair instead who teleported us over the lake instead...

What?! How cruel, doing something like that in weather like this ... I hope your friends are doing alright too ...

Well, one is a little sick and the other apparently was happy to be teleported over the water. I guess if he had been teleported over ground and he hit it he would have exploded...

Exploded ...? Oh, was that person by chance Mr. Kurtis?

Yeah! It was! You two know each other?

Yes, we do! Mr. Kurtis and I didn't meet each other under the best of circumstances, but he's a wonderful person!

Yes he is! And he was a big help!

That's not surprising -- like Mr. Gordon said, Mr. Kurtis is a true Defender! Even as a prinny, I have no doubts that he'd still be as great of one as he was before!

Mr. Gordon?

Oh, he's the current Defender of Earth and Mr. Kurtis' rival! I think they're friends now, though.

I'd say! I mean if even your rival says you're that good you HAVE to be pretty awesome! I'm glad he's MY friend now too!

Hehehe, I'm sure he'd be glad to know you think that way!

You really think so? [Happy laugh]

Yep, I sure do! [Oh Vash, your happy is so infectious.]

[Laughs slow and he grins] Take good care of the flowers! I'll stop by in a few days to see how they're doing!!

I certainly will! Feel better soon, Mr. Vash!

Don't worry! I will!

[A certain orange-haired woman told Chopper that Vash was feeling unwell, so he's decided to peek over the journals and take a look for himself.]

Umm...Vash? Is everything okay?

[Sorry Chopper! Vash went back to sleep after talking to the mean Nami. You'll have to try a little harder] Glazed...

[You're lucky Chopper has no capacity for drug jokes 8|]

...Vash? Vaaaaaash!

[Drugs! What drugs! He was dreaming of doughnutty goodness! Comes awake with a yawn.] Wa... huh? [So many people waking him up today!]

[Oh, of course.]

Nami told me you were feeling sick, so I thought I'd check up on you.

Oh! I'm alright! Just a little cold. [He's got the sniffles and a very light fever - not sure how much you'll be able to tell over the journals in that little picture because... he's not telling~!]

Are you sure you don't want me to come over? You sound...a little conjested. And you were saying weird stuff in your sleep.

Well... I do have a donut I owe Brook; but I'm really not too bad. Meryl's watching over me!

Meryl? Who's that? [Isn't she one of Luffy's friends?]

[laughs] So many people seem to have known her here. Sorry! No; she's a friend from my world.
