[Accidental Voice]

[goldenglasses]

[It’s a quiet day in Vash’s room; a quiet that is broken by a thump as his journal falls to the floor beside his desk. Then the camera is suddenly blocked as death from above! a black cat jumps down on top of the journal and begins batting and ripping at the corners of the flapping pages. The cat suddenly stops it’s attack and freezes up when a door opens and the sounds of footfalls can be heard followed shortly by the sloshing of water.

How dare the funny man in the red coat pay more attention to those flowers than her! Kitty is off and the journal is left with a view of Vash’s wall as he suddenly yelps as the cat uses her claws to get his attention.]

Oh, hey there kitty, shouldn’t you be in Wolfwood’s room terrorizing him? [There’s a soft mew from the cat followed by the squeaking of bed springs.] Hmm, you really do need a name, we can’t just keep calling you ‘the cat’ forever and Wolfwood was pretty adamant about not naming you Nichole. [A chuckle here. Yes, he finds himself funny.]

Hm, but what would suit you? Sally? Naw, you don’t look like a Sally to me. Hm, maybe Bailey or Buttons? No, not Buttons… Bailey isn’t too bad, but I bet I could do better. Milo - nah, that’s more suited for a male cat. Zig-zag? No, that’s just silly. Oh! I know! How about Tesla! I’ve always liked that name. What do you think? Do you like Tesla? [There is a pleased purring sound from the cat, from the name or the petting she’s getting it’s hard to tell.]

I think it will do. [A contented chuckle.] Never thought I’d have a pet. It’s hard to take care of one when you’re moving all the time. It’s nice. I think I kind of like staying in one place. Don’t you, Tesla? A whole year, I think that might be a new record.

[It’s Vash’s one year anniversary today! He’s so proud of himself for managing to not knock over any buildings during that time! You may have to yell a bit loudly if you’d like to interrupt this “important” conversation as his journal is on the opposite side of the desk. If you just keep listening you might hear more!]

[Wary look]... You're not apart of his crew too, are you?

[Voice/Filtered from Legato]

[goldenglasses]

Me? No! Not at all! I'm perfectly normal! [LOUD laughter.] No special powers or anything like him! AHAHAHA! Just normal little o'l me!

[Voice/Filtered from Legato]

[sonatasedge]

For some reason, I have trouble believing that. [Dry dry voice.]

[Voice/Filtered from Legato]

[goldenglasses]

[The laughter stops and he takes on a rather utterly confused tone.] What? That I'm not part of his crew? We're not even from the same planet.

Re: [Voice/Filtered from Legato]

[sonatasedge]

[He is definitely not grinding his teeth...]

That you're normal.

[Voice/Filtered from Legato]

[goldenglasses]

Oh, well, I guess I am a little taller than most people. Does that count?

[Voice/Filtered from Legato]

[sonatasedge]

[Takes a minute to regain his cool. Really, he can deal with dumbasses. He deals with Black*Star all the time, right? But Soul gets the feeling Vash is just playing the fool and that is what's pissing him off.]

... No. Dunno how you're not normal, but that show you put on made it pretty obvious that you're hiding something. [His tone also says that he doesn't really care to know what it is Vash is hiding, he's just stating it because he wants to make a point.]

[Voice/Filtered from Legato]

[goldenglasses]

[Shrugs with a sigh as if he's bored.] If you say so.

[Voice/Filtered from Legato]

[sonatasedge]

Hn. Whatever it is, that's your business. [Small grin.]

You're a cool guy, you got a name?

[Voice/Filtered from Legato] 1/2

[goldenglasses]

Me? Cool!?

[Voice/Filtered from Legato] 2/2

[goldenglasses]

[And then quickly speaking in a deep, 'manly' voice.] Uh-um, I mean of course I'm cool! Probably the coolest man here! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

[Then back in his normal voice, like he wasn't just acting like a deep.] Oh - and it's Jordan.

[Voice/Filtered from Legato]

[sonatasedge]

[He suddenly regrets calling you cool.]

Ah... Right. [>.>]

[You just can't stop lying can you, Vash? Now he just doesn't even know.] .... Jordan, huh? [skeptical, unsure]

[Voice/Filtered from Legato]

[goldenglasses]

Yup! What's your name friend?

[Voice/Filtered from Legato]

[sonatasedge]

It's Soul.

[Voice/Filtered from Legato]

[goldenglasses]

Soul, huh? I like it!

[Voice/Filtered from Legato]

[sonatasedge]

Thanks...

I'd say I like yours if it was your real name. [He's about 50/50 on that, actually, but he figures this is the coolest way to find out.]

[Voice/Filtered from Legato]

[goldenglasses]

Uh... okay.

Then what's my name then? As I apparently don't know my own name.

[Voice/Filtered from Legato]

[sonatasedge]

[So you like playing hard to get, do you, Vash?]

Hm... you look like an Ogilvie Stickbottom, to me.

[Voice/Filtered from Legato]

[goldenglasses]

Ogg..vee what?

[Voice/Filtered from Legato]

[sonatasedge]

Ogilvie Stickbottom. [Completely casual.]

Stickbottom is easier to say though. [This is your new nickname, Vash.]

[Voice/Filtered from Legato]

[goldenglasses]

Stickbottom... riiiiiiight.

[Voice/Filtered from Legato]

[sonatasedge]

[Nod.]

So, Stickbottom. You like music?

[Voice/Filtered from Legato]

[goldenglasses]

Yeah, who doesn't like music? I've been learning how to play the harmonica lately too.

[Voice/Filtered from Legato]

[sonatasedge]

I've met a couple people who don't like it. Ch, uncool.

[Ah~ Harmonica, a blues instrument, the sister genre of jazz. He smiles pretty genuinely at that.]

I'll have to hear you play sometime.

[Voice/Filtered from Legato]

[goldenglasses]

Oh well, I'm not too great at it just yet. Still just learning. [He's past the horrible and bad stage, but still very much amaturish.]
