[Accidental Voice / Action]

[Vash has started to keep to himself more the past couple days. Rem's arrival had almost made him forget this day, but he could never really forget.

Today he heads out early, trying to leave the new house before anyone else is awake. He finds a spot near the fountain to do some early morning people watching before getting up and heading to the bakery. He stops outside, knowing this isn't really where he wants to be, it's just habit. He turns and heads to the flower shop instead. He doesn't stay long, just long enough to make sure that everything is still running smooth without Aerith.

He checks the time to duck over to Good Spirits quickly. He wants to be there and gone before Meryl's shift. He orders a couple of beers before he starts growing restless again. This wasn't right either. What was he suppose to do on this day? How could he ever fix this mistake?

Without much thought he grabs a couple bottle and heads out into the forest. He walks for a bit before just sitting down against a tree inspecting his find. People said this blue stuff was strong, now seemed to be a good time to try it out.

Some point in his drinking his journal falls out of his pocket and starts to record. For awhile it records very little until suddenly-]


CRASH!

[There's the sound of a whiskey bottle shattering as it's thrown against a tree. It's followed by silence that is slowly broken by soft sobs.]

I'm sorry... I'm so sorry. I - I didn't mean to.

(ooc: Anyone who wants to talk to Vash before he gets himself drunk is free to call for him over the journals! He'll have it on him all day! Or run into him pretty much anywhere.)

[Giles waits for several seconds to make sure that that's the end of the noise before he dares to speak. For one thing, he's listening for noises that might hint at location.

He knows the tune, even if he might not know the words. And this? This is concerning.]


...Vash?

[Yes, well, those don't sound like village noises. Since the boat is near enough to the forest anyway, Giles will start pacing the outskirts.

If Vash doesn't answer inside of ten minutes, Giles will call his name again.]

..."fine" in what sense?

"Fine" in the sense that all that breaking glass didn't slice you open, for example?

[Grune loves taking walks in the woods. She likes listening to the birds chirping and the river flowing...

...but she doesn't like listening to glass shattering and people sobbing.

She walks in the direction of that second, heartbreaking sound, not quite sure who she's about to find as she calls out:]
Hello? Is someone there?
lostinmyway: (Troubled.)

[Grune wanders a little closer, and then:] ...Vash? Is something the matter?
lostinmyway: (Troubled.)

Are you sure? [He doesn't look all right. He looks sad.]
lostinmyway: (Troubled.)

[Grune just sort of…looks at him for a moment or two. Then, she walks over and sits down next to him under his tree.]

[Jigen doesn't know Vash but he knows what a drunken fit sounds like. Many times has he experienced this same thing, probably with similar haunting memories--if that is Vash's case at all. There's silence from this gunman in attempt to observe anything useful before speaking calmly.]

Rough day?
lostinmyway: (Troubled.)

[After another moment, Grune reaches out to take his hand, if he lets her.] Are you sure you're all right? You look a little sad.
lostinmyway: (Troubled.)

I've done a 32-comment thread with Dhaos with him saying nothing but "Nn," once. This is nothing. XD

[She laces their fingers together anyway.] Hmm. All right.

If you ever need an ear, I'll buy you a decent drink. [A small sigh.] From one troubled man to another, I hope you get better.
lostinmyway: (Almost wistful.)

[Grune is quiet for a little while, too. She starts to hum at one point, looking around aimlessly at the view.]

[Staring never gets anything accomplished with these humans.]

What are you doing?

[sitting and crying and throwing glass things that miss by about a foot. ...She doesn't know he wasn't aiming at her, though. Hiding as she was.]
