[It’s been a few days since the draft, but even though he hadn’t been sleeping very well the last couple nights, last night was better. Really, it’s hard sometimes to feel down with Milly around again. That unshakable optimism must be contagious. Or maybe it was the fact that he hadn’t had any feeling of Knives being close since he returned from the draft. Maybe he was sent home! That would be nice.

They had all been brought together again. It feels almost like a dream as it would have been impossible back home, but now not only were the four of them together once again, they had a home together. A place they always knew where to find each other at the end of the day. It was also hard to believe, as he thought about it, how many friends he had grown so close to after being here for over a year. Good friends.

Really, it’s hard to hate Luceti when it’s given you all that.

So Vash is visiting his favorite spots. The flower shop is first on his list, then it’s to the bakery for some lunch! He’ll take his haul of donuts to the fountain to catch up on his people watching until they’re all gone. He doesn’t have too long to linger there, with the weather warming up and the snow melting he heads out into the forest to see if any of the flowers he’s planted have started to grow back yet.

Okay… so that’s a bit of a disappointment - BUT IT’S OKAY! The snow is only just starting to melt so they still have time to wake up and start growing. Besides, he likes the snow, he’s a little sad to see it go. He thinks Milly would have loved to play in it.

He had intended to head home after checking on the flowers, but it was so nice out that he changed his mind. Opting to pull his harmonica out and practicing a bit on it. Of course as the journals like to do, it turns on against his will and records the music that he plays for awhile. Then he talks out loud to himself for a bit.]

I can’t wait to see your flowers bloom again, Rem. I know they’ll be beautiful when they do. I’ve been trying to take very good care of them for you.

It’s nice here, when it’s quiet like this. I haven’t forgotten what I have to do back home, but I really like these peaceful days here.

[A pause.]

I did the best I could, Rem, but I’m not sure if I really did anything at all. I wonder what you would have done differently. Was there something I didn’t see? Something else I could have done? I sometimes wish you were here with me again.

[This entry will be locked from Knives, Legato, and Yuber by the end of the day.]

Current Mood: content

[The journal falls open just in time to catch a pained gasp, followed by some rather upset sniffling.] T-t-that hurt! B-but R-R-Rem said dreams aren’t s-suppose to hurt! It’s so cold. Rem! Kn-nives! [Finally the journal catches a glimpse of little Vash as he shakily tries to stand up in it‘s view. His trade mark spiky hair is gone. Instead it falls most the way down his back, but those eyes and that mole are the same. He‘s also severely underdressed in just the new feather pants. Look ma! No scars!] W-Where are you?! Joey? J-Joey, can you h-hear me?! W-what part of the s-s-ship is this?!

[There’s a pause as if he’s waiting for someone to answer, then he tries to take a step forward. Instead of moving his feet come flying out from under him and he lands hard on ice again with a frightened yelp. Once he gets his breath back the soft sobbing starts up again.] Rem. P-p-please help me, R-Rem. Where are y-you?

(ooc: Space and time? What is that? Whoever wants to run into poor Vash is welcome. He’s stuck out on the frozen lake!)

Current Mood: cold

[Today, Vash can be found most anywhere, except his place. He’s avoiding CH4 for some reason right now. He’ll be leaving at the crack of dawn and staying out until very late at night. He also doesn’t stop to visit the bakery. The item shop and grocery store are fair game, and so is the bar. He’ll be bopping around until he starts to feel restless and move on, but he has a very important announcement to make.]

[Filtered from Legato and Yuber//100% Unhackable]

Hey, everyone! It was Naoki’s birthday last week. Not a fun week for a birthday, so we need a party to celebrate it the right way. If you’re a friend of Naoki, seen him on the street, or just want to meet him? You’re invited! How about… two days from now! On the ninth in house number thirty one! There’s not too many people living around there so we can be loud without upsetting anyone! [Comment spam log to come in a couple days~]

Oh… Sanji, you can make the cake, right?

[A bit later, Vash will be at the flower shop and again notice that Flonne isn’t there.]

Has anyone heard from Flonne in a while? I haven’t seen her around the flower shop at all lately.

[…ahah, yeah. Vash just isn’t going to mention that post of Legato’s.]

[Edited after being given the idea] Hey! Brook! Luka! Do you think you two could help with the music!?

Current Mood: restless

[The other day Vash had been horrified to find every time he tried to leave the apartment he found his traditional jacket missing and a horrible sweater, pants, hat, make-up, and accessory in its place. Of course, like most, he first tried to rip it off, but of course that failed and now he's decided to just make the best of things.

So he's walking around town, checking out the Halloween decorations, with donuts shoved onto his new 'claw' trying to make the best of the situation. Eventually he takes out his journal.]

[Filtered from Legato // 100% Unhackable]

So... I'm assuming the forced costume part isn't a normal part of Halloween, is it? The decorations are kinda cute. Well, I guess if you like bats and spiders. The happy-looking pumpkin faces are cute, though. [A pause as he thinks it over.] So, what exactly is this holiday supposed to be about? [No really, he's confused. There's so many cute things mixed in with scary things he's not sure what to think about it.] Something about the dead coming back, so we get candy? How does that exact--[There's a sharp, and rather frightened gasp, as Vash suddenly drops his book and it slams shut.]

Current Mood: guilty

[Today is the day Vash hates the most out of the year. The anniversary of the “Big Fall”. The day the ships crashed into the planet Gunsmoke. The day Rem died. He heads out early and quietly, his usual smile gone, he can’t even muster enough energy to put up the mask of a smile he usually wears.

Most of the day he’ll be sitting quietly around the square to people watch. Seeing people going about their days, looking happy to be alive, usually helps, but not today. Eventually he takes out the harmonica he’s been learning how to play and attempts to play Sound Life, but can’t get it just right. He gives up after a couple attempts and bows his head into his hands.] I’m sorry Rem… I haven’t… I… [I killed someone. I haven’t taken care of Knives. I left you. You were here and I wasn’t there to protect you again… And now he’s crying.

Later, when he can get a hold of himself, he’ll wander out deep, deep into the forest. A spot he picked because he felt not many people visited this area. This is where he planted the flowers that Rem left behind. He tends to them and spends a few hours practicing the Earth magic he knows.

As it starts to grow dark and cold he winds up at Good Spirits. He‘s got a bottle of whisky next to him up at the bar, but he‘s nursing that glass in front of him. Glasses pushed up on his head, even if he is indoors, and head bowed. He‘s not crying, just exhausted after a trying day.]

Current Mood: nostalgic

[Today started like most mornings for Vash. He got up, did a little bit of training, took a shower, then started breakfast. There was something missing though as he got started. Wasn’t Rem usually up by now? As his bread turned to toast, he went to check on her to see if she would like anything for breakfast. After not getting any response from some light knocking, he quietly opened the door.]

Rem, are you awa- [All of her things were gone and Rem was nowhere in sight. All that was left were her flowers. He quietly shut the door and picked his journal up off the kitchen table.]

[Voice]

For those that knew her. Rem, she- [Long, long pause.] she’s been sent home.

[Action]

[Meryl, if you’re home you have about forty seconds to come find him before all you’ll have is a note saying that Rem was sent home, he went for a walk and would be back later. Whether Meryl catches him in time or not, he’ll eventually head straight into the forest as he just can’t stay in the apartment right now. He’ll walk for a long time, going deep into the woods before he realizes that this is dangerous. He’s not paying attention to anything around him, so he’ll climb up into a tree in the hopes to stay clear of at least some of the dangers in the woods.]

Current Mood: crushed

[Vash has been dumped into the forest unceremoniously after his first trip to the labs. They were nice enough to leave his journal beside him but not his clothes. Which is making it not only hard to hide his old scars, but even harder to hide just how hurt his right arm is in just the new feather white pants. Arms aren’t suppose to be at those angles or bleed so much.

After some time he’ll manage to push himself up into a sitting position and rip his pant legs to at least make some bandages for the deeper cuts. Besides the arm he does have some bruising for being a stubborn captive and is a bit pale with some very dark circles under his eyes. He knows he looks like crap so it takes him a bit before he finally opens his journal being careful to show only his face.] Ah, sorry if I worried anyone, but I’m back now.

Luka are you alright?

[Filtered from Rem and Meryl // 40% Unhackable]

Ah… is there anyone at the clinic who can set broken bones right now? Ah-haha… and if possible, don’t suppose I could see a male doctor?

[And with that Vash is going to rest against a tree for a bit before attempting to get up and make his way to the clinic through the forest to avoid as many people as he can.]

Current Mood: sore

[The sun is out and Vash is in fairly high spirits after a couple of stressful weeks. Nami’s back, Rem is here, Meryl isn’t upset with him, and it seems the people running around murdering have been at least stopped for now. So he’s decided to make a couple stops today. First on that list is House 6 to see how Nami is doing. After that he’ll stop to visit Kohaku if she’s home.

Then he’s going to stop at the library to find a book on growing plants indoors. Afterwards, he'll stop at the flower shop for pots, seeds, and dirt before heading for home. Feel free to run into him between any of his stops or at the library and shop.]

Current Mood: chipper

[Shortly after this thread on the 14th Vash is quickly making his way back to town. He has some work to do. For those of you that know Vash well the usual happy tone is missing from his voice.]

[Filtered to Simon Belmont // 100% Unhackable]

Mr. Belmont? My name is Vash. [He knows they’ve talked once or twice, but it’s been awhile.] I would like to ask you a few questions if I could about Aku and your whip.

[Filtered to Miyabi // 100% Unhackable]

Miyabi, you said your sword Sumomo could cut Aku. Do you know how it was able to do that?

[And because Vash is smart and will figure out Aku’s weakness eventually there is a voice post to the masses sometime later.]

[Filtered from Aku, Kefka, and Yuber (Just go with the badguy list. Yeah that works.) // 100% Unhackable]

Uh, this is probably a strange question. Does anyone know a way to give bullets a - uh, holy quality to them? I don’t think just blessing them will do the trick.

[With that done Vash can be found headed toward the weapon shop. For those who meet up with him or try to talk to him about something other than Aku stuff will find that he’ll drop his serious act and try to act happy as usual. Although Meryl may pick up that for the next couple weeks someone will be having trouble sleeping and up late most nights.]

Current Mood: pessimistic

[Vash today is standing outside of Community Building Four staring up into the rain, a happy smile on his face and laughing joyfully. His arms stretched out, he’s already drenched, but doesn’t seem to mind. After a few minutes he opens his journal.]

Hey Meryl! It’s raining outside! [Would anyone care to explain to him what a raincoat is?]

(ooc: I checked the calendar! It is indeed raining!)

Current Mood: ecstatic

ALRIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGHT!

I am Vash the Stampede! An ace bounty hunter here to serve! Got a baddy laddy you need brought in? Just give me a call! And if you have a bounty you might as well just turn yourself in now! For there is no escaping my expert marksmanship!

Now accepting applications for cute sidekicks. [What? Every bounty hunter has one!]

Edit: [Look out Luffy. Someone has been told about your bounty and has now set up a little ‘trap’ in the square for you. Namely - a piece of meat sitting on top of a rather obvious net, but the sign says it’s free!]

Current Mood: working

[After taking a few days to himself to fully process the whole "return to life" thing, Vash is finally getting out to visit the people he said he would.

His first stop is Flonne’s Flower Shop of Love. He’s hoping Flonne is there today as he doesn’t know where she lives. (Seeing the flowers is also a plus!) His next stop is Kohaku’s place! He makes a pit stop where he thought Miyabi’s house was only to be disappointed that he can‘t see it. Silly snow. Then finally the last stop he makes is the Straw Hat residence. For those he’s visiting he looks perfectly normal except for the small bags under his eyes. Someone hasn’t been sleeping well lately. At some point during his walking he pauses to jot down a note in his journal.]

[Written // Filtered to Adell // 5% Unhackable]

If you’d still like to talk I’d be happy to meet you somewhere. Just need a time and place.

[Voiced // Filtered to Guy // 90% Unhackable]

Guy… I wanted to thank you… for looking after Meryl while I was [pause] gone.

[Feel free to bump into him while he walks from place to place!]

Current Mood: chipper

[If you happen to be walking in the forest this afternoon, you may notice something strange. There is a man lying in the snow who apparently thought it would be a good place for a nap. And napping is just what he’s doing at the moment. Thinking that maybe the past couple months have only been a dream - that is, until he starts to wake and notices two important things. He’s cold and wet. Gunsmoke is neither cold or wet so then - it was real? His eyes finally snap open and he bolts upright. He’s breathing heavily as he waves a hand in front of his face before something else hits him.] Meryl! [Snatching the journal at his side Vash will be opening it and nearly shouting into it.]

Meryl! [He quickly softens his voice and puts a soft smile on his face. He’s really back - no need to worry people so much by freaking out.] Uh - everyone. I’m back. I’m sorry if I worried you, but I’ll be home soon.

[He makes good on this by standing as soon as the post is done and making his way back home. He’s stumbling a bit as he makes his way back to community building 4 but otherwise looks fine.]

(ooc: May be slow tagging back. Going to bed soon. I WAS going to post this tomorrow but a few people wouldn't stop complaining. So. I decided to post and not tell them. HA! Revenge! I think?)

Current Mood: thankful

[Vash can be found sitting on a bench in the plaza, his glasses on and a very grim look upon his face as he looks the place over. He’s thinking back to the incident with Kefka. A man died and he hadn’t been able to stop it. There must have been a way. What had he missed? He’ll be sitting there for a while, teeth clenching as he tries to figure out what he did wrong. Meryl is welcome to pick up/comment on the sober mood he’s probably been in the past day or so.]

Current Mood: Emo

[There is a large man in a red coat carrying a bag about. Is it… Santa!? No. It’s Vash. He has some gifts and he’s out looking for people to give them out to. So if your name is Luka, Flonne, Eiko, Kohaku, Salt, Miyabi, Toph, or Sokka please be expecting a Vash to run at you in the street or be stopping by your place if he knows where you live.

Meryl - your gift he will be giving you when he gets home.

And if you live at the One Piece house. You have a sack with a crudely drawn Vash wearing a Santa hat picture drawn on it with the words ‘Ho Ho Ho!’ pinned to it. Someone doesn’t want to be around when Sanji gets his. In it you will find gifts wrapped for each member with their names on it.

( Free stuff! )
Vash is also carrying candy canes and cards. So if he’s met you even just once - feel free to either find a card or show up and retrieve it. Feel free to also approach the strange man in the red coat if you haven’t met. He has extra candy canes! He also loves kids, so if you're a kid in the area, there will be a stranger offering you candy. Of course you take it!]

[Vash is once again Christmas shopping. He’s almost done but this seems familiar. Hm. But something is missing. Wait. He knows.]

Hey. TWINKLE TOES!

I’m still waiting on payment for our bet. I’ll meet you at the fountain. Ask Nami; I’m sure she has a few good ones to choose from! Or stop by the shop and grab a pretty one! I’m waiiiiiiiiting~! [By waiting he means hiding nearby.]

[Thanks to Yuber throwing his search party into the lake; Vash has found himself joining the ranks of the sick. Although he tried to change out of his wet and freezing clothes right away it was too late. So he’s in bed with a light fever. And he might have fallen asleep with his journal open.]

Rem… it’s so hot and dry… [There’s a bit of muttering] …you’d like her. Mmmhm. [Some rustling as he rolls in bed] saw one… so red.

[Then he’s quiet for a few minutes]

Ahaha! Are all those donuts for me!? Oh! You shouldn’t have!!

Current Mood: sick

Has anyone seen a man who… well, looks like a clown? I saw him go into the portal but hasn’t come back yet. Also trying to find Miyabi who may or may not have gone through the portal. She’s a Poncle - really small and wears a butterfly cap. Everyone else that I know of who went in has already come back…

[Filtered from Kefka - 20% hackable]
Oh. And a man named Sabin. His friend doesn’t think he used the portal but is also missing. He’s tall and muscular. With blond hair, blue eyes, and a loud laugh.
[Unfiltered]

If anyone sees them please let me know? How big is this place anyway?

Meryl. I’m going out to the desert for awhile. Don’t worry I’ll be back.

[Yes he’s off to search for the missing in the desert. He knows it’s a mostly fruitless endeavor; but he has to try. Feel free to run into him on his way.]

Hey! Fair maiden! I got my coat back so I can return the one you let me borrow! Let me know when you’re home sometime so I can return it!

And Meryl I’m going exploring! Would you like me to pick anything up for you while I’m out?

[Vash can be found wandering around the village. Where exactly? Pretty much anywhere. His goal was the repair shop to look for his gun but it’s not that he’s lost… he just doesn’t know where he is. Feel free to bug him around town.

After his shopping he’ll be coming home and while putting things away someone notices his own letter. After reading it a couple times he’ll be looking for Meryl to ask her about a couple things.]
