[Action/Voice] Backdated to Jan. 12th

[Vash hasn’t been having a good week. Shortly after this failed conversation Wednesday evening with his brother, he’s weaving his way through town trying to get himself to the clinic. Blood has stopped spilling from a deep cut just above his fake arm on his left. His right is still bleeding a bit and his bigger problem. The collar bone having been neatly cut through. His head is a bit cloudy from the pain and blood loss, but he keeps going in a fairly straight line.

It’s after he gets treatment that he then faces the part he’s been dreading even more than facing his brother. He opens his journal, but it takes him awhile to write out a filter with his sore arms.]


[Filtered from Knives, Legato, and Yuber // 88% Unhackable]

[Even after the filter goes up he’s quiet for a long time. Unsure how to start.] I… I’m sorry, but… [A long pause. He takes a long deep breath, then slowly lets it out and forces himself on.] But there was a man dead out in the woods. I… I’m not sure who he was. I’m sorry. [Damn it, Knives.]

He had short, dark hair. I’m sorry I don’t know much more than that. He was already gone when I found him. I… I’m sorry if you knew him. [Yeah, too bad Vash doesn’t know that Jack is immortal and is probably already alive again by the time he makes this post. Of course, he doesn’t know that, so now that he’s not bleeding to death, and has at least one - mostly - useable arm, he’s heading back out to take care of the body if the Malnosso haven’t gotten to it yet. (Or you know… the body hasn‘t walked off yet!)]

Yeesh... and I'm guessing Legato is probably skipping through the fields at this, too.

But it's good that he didn't decide to just start shooting up people for the hell of it; even if he's plotting something, at least there's time to just sit and think.

...Malnosso won't let him get too far, anyway. Or so I hope.

[That doesn't sound good at all.]

Well... He wasn't surprised to see me, so that means...

[He's from before he died.

...A curious addendum:]


He also called me Chapel.

It is. At first I just figured he didn't give two shits about mixing us up or something, but it's still damn weird, considering he asked if I were still keeping an eye on you.

I sure hope so, or else I was going to suggest he's starting to lose it even more than he was back at home. [If the man could actually lose it anymore than now.]

So... does that mean... you can stop bullets and send them back at people, too? Or make knives from your body?
notabluesbro: ([Worried] Well that's a giant lightbulb.)

Maybe he did something back home. Something that changed the way he works...

...We'll keep our eyes peeled, Vash, and we'll deal with shit when it happens. Don't think this is just going to be your fight. We're all in this together.
notabluesbro: ([Serious] Here I am.)

I'm serious. You know this isn't just your problem—and all of the 'hmmm's in the world isn't going to change the fact that you're gonna have help around.

Get used to it.
