[Vash felt himself starting to wake up. Only it was a strange sort of feeling. He wasn’t cold and he was comfortable. It was something he hadn’t felt in the past couple weeks and for the past few days any changes that happened between bouts of sleep wasn’t a good thing.

As he dragged his tired and worn senses out of rest he then remembered that Meryl had been with him. With an arm he reaches out, touching the shoulder next to him, still too tired to make a coherent sound just yet.]


-A few hours later.-

[Now fully awake Vash opens his journal, holding his head, sounding tired, and dizzy.]

Hey, I’m back. [Is the wind suddenly picking up?] I should be home soon. [Yeah, the wind is picking up.] Hope I didn’t - WHAAAAAAA! [In mid sentence Vash is sent spinning off like the Tasmanian devil, dropping the journal too the ground. Opps. Hope that house was empty. Because the Humanoid Typhoon has just taken out the living room.]

Ow…

(OOC: Vash has been turned into a literal walking typhoon! Feel free to talk to him over the journal or run into him anywhere around town/forest as he attempts to get home. He can go wherever the wind takes him! Trying to keep this lighthearted so no major injuries if you wish to get caught in a whirlwind with him. Also, if you want something broken just let me know in subject line or hint to it in brackets! Otherwise I won’t have Vash break anything without permission!)

[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.]
goldenglasses: (Why'd I have to get the hicky there?)
[He was dreaming, he was out in the forest, but this wasn’t like most of the dreams he had that were in the forest. He was fighting someone, but who…? Legato? No! It was---!!] Wolfwood! [His stressed brain works over time as it seems to take everything in at once. He’s in his room. Something cold on his wrist - handcuffs - his ankle too. The end of the fight comes running back to him. Wolfwood was alive and taking safety measures.

Good. He deserved to be chained up like a monster. Just thinking about what he’d done makes his stomach turn. Without even really thinking about it he slides himself up trying to bring his knees to his chest. He should call for Wolfwood, make sure he was alright and to get out of these chains, but… he just couldn’t look him in the face right now. I tried to kill him. Ugh. He lowers his head; afraid he really was going to be sick.

Then sometime after one of his roommates have set him free and he can get to his journal he‘ll put up a filter, although it takes him a long time to speak into it after it goes up.]


[Filtered from Legato // 100% Unhackable]

[At first his speaking is very quick and precise, like he’s rehearsed this. That won’t last long though.] Everyone, I’m sorry, if you spoke or met me recently that… it… it wasn- [A sigh and maybe what could be the sound of a piece of paper being crumpled.] I can’t say it wasn’t me, it was… but I would never… what I said these last couple weeks, I would never normally say or do those things. I am so sorry. So, very sorry. [He not even going to bother to ask you all to forgive him.]

[Filtered to Kaori // 100% Unhackable]

Are you alright? I… I’m so sorry that I hurt you.

[Written to Legato // 100% Filtered.]

[Vash hesitates on this. He’s pretty sure Legato would also rather pretend the last couple weeks didn’t happen, but still, Vash couldn’t do that. He also couldn‘t bring himself to speak it either. So after a long pause he quickly scribbles.]

Thank you.

[This post may or may not have been made from within Vash’s closet. He knows he has to go back outside at some point - even just to make sure Legato hasn’t gone on a rampage - he’s just not ready to face people yet.]

[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!?

goldenglasses: Maker on LJ (This world is made of... LOVE AND PEACE!)

[Alright, Vash has had enough. He’s let Legato way too far into his head. So what if he’s here? He hasn’t tried anything that he knows of yet. So today is operation: Cheer up already. It starts on his way to the bakery with a strong filter against Legato and Yuber.]

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

ATTENTION LUCETI! With everything that’s been going on I feel that it is of dire importance that I remind you all that this world is made of….

LOVE AND PEACE!

Love! And! Peace~! Love! And! Peace~! Love! And! Peace~! Thank you! And have a nice day!

[After that “very important” service announcement Vash will be arriving at the bakery and ordering three dozen donuts. That’s right. Three dozen. He’ll be taking his haul to a bench to people watch and chow down, humming to himself and yelling over just how GREAT those donuts are.

When lunch is over he’ll be heading to the flower shop to lend a hand and just see all the flowers. Just seeing them makes him happy. His last stop on his day of happy is a quick trip to the bar for some happy drinks. He’s been drinking out of depression too much lately, he’d better fix that. Don’t worry, Wolfwood and Meryl! He won’t be TOO drunk when he gets home. Maybe… you totally won’t hear him throwing up in the toilet later. Maybe…]

goldenglasses: (Looking for answers - finding none)
[Vash gets an early start today. His first stop even before the sun is really up is to stop by the rubble that was once community building four. He searches through the rubble carefully for some time, before he apparently finds what he’s looking for. Several broken flower pots. It’s as he feared, the flowers that had been left behind that Rem had cared for have been crushed under the rubble. As it sinks in that one of the only mementos he had of Rem in over hundred years is gone he starts to tear up, but he has other things to take care of today.

He slips his sunglasses on his head, takes a few of the dried out petals, sticking them in the pages of his journal, and will then head for Flonne's Flower Shop of Love, spending most of the afternoon there attempting to clean the place up and take care of the flowers. He does the best he can, but he honestly doesn’t know for sure how to take care of the more exotic-looking ones.

After getting the place as clean as he probably can, he heads out again. Headed to the forest, but he has a long walk in mind. You're welcome to run into him during the start of his walk, but really only those who spend nearly all their time in the forest should find his final destination as he picked it out with the idea that it was far and out of the way. The couple flowers he had kept at the apartment weren’t the only ones she left behind and he’s relieved to see that the ones he planted are still safe. He’ll spend the rest of the day checking on these flowers and making sure they’ll be alright before headed back to wherever he and Meryl have been staying since their apartment came down.]

(ooc: Feel free to run into Vash anywhere he’s at today or call for him over the journals. He does have it on him and will answer it - or feel free to comment on the flowers he just crammed into it!)
goldenglasses: Maker on LJ (Still a momma's boy)
[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.]
goldenglasses: Maker on LJ (Excellent!)
[Early this morning Vash awoke from what he thought was a bad dream. Although he could hardly remember the details; but just opening his eyes in bed and he had never felt so thrilled to see color. He practically leaped out of bed, practically because leaping typically means landing on your feet and not your face. After a quick recovery he runs into Rem and Meryl’s room. Watch out you two your suddenly returned gunman is in the hugging mood. The kind of hug that involves swinging if you’re short enough.] AHHHH! It’s so good to see you! [Feel free to let the guy know he’s been gone a few days and it wasn’t quite a dream.

Then when he can escape Rem and Meryl or they kick the extremely happy man out he’ll be around town practically skipping everywhere he goes.]
AHHH! It’s a great day~! [He’s happy to see all the people and he’ll be making a stop to check on Katie specifically, he can’t shake this worried feeling he has about her. And if you’re a friend of Vash’s and he knows where you live he might be stopping by. He just wants to see everyone and validate that yes - everyone is still where they should be. But beware... he hugs.]
goldenglasses: Maker on LJ (OMFG WUT!?)
[Vash had thought a leisurely walk though town would be a fun idea. And hey! It’s a cute little butterfly fluttering to him.] Why hello there friend! [He’s even more amused when it lands on his forehead.] Hey there, I’m not a flow-OW! Did you just bite me!? OW! I think you just BIT me! Butterflies don’t bi-OW! You DID bite me! Get off! [Vash shakes his head and dislodges the tease and then flaps his arms trying to get it to leave.] Shoo! Get out of here! Leave me alone! [Wait… now there’s TWO!? Where‘d that one come from!?] What kind of butterflies are these?! [And Vash takes off running and screaming, waving his arms in the air.]

[Voice]

Rem! Meryl! Whoever is home! Close the windows and don’t let any black butterflies in! I think they’re zombies or something. Everyone else stay clear! They bite! And are very persistent!

[Feel free to run into him pretty much anywhere. He’ll be warning everyone and saving (or getting in the way) of anyone under attack by the butterflies. Oh, and he won’t be killing any.]

goldenglasses: Maker on LJ (Missing you)
[Today, like most days, Vash is out in the forest. He’s settled himself down next to a patch of flowers. He’s been thinking a lot lately, maybe too much, as he just sits running his fingers through the grass and looking around.] I wish… I could share this with all of you.

[He sits quietly for a while before tears start slip down his face.] Damn it, Raven…

[Why can’t he ever save any of his friends? This isn’t a good time to be homesick on top of it all.]
goldenglasses: Maker on LJ (Shit... who's bed am I in!?)
[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.]

[There is a very wet, drunk, blonde headed man screaming through the journals.]

HEY EVERYONE!

It has come to my attention that many of you here are a bit violent. Really now, can’t we all just get along? So everyone needs to remember what this world is really made of! And what is it really made of you say? Why that is simple! This world is made of…

LOVE AND PEACE!

Say it with me everyone! Love and peace! Love and peace! Love and peace! [And with that the post cuts off with some mad laughter as well as a repeating of “Love and Peace” over and over. Drunks shouldn’t be given magical journals, even if it wasn’t totally his fault – he’s not sorry for this post. You all do need to learn to love more.]
goldenglasses: Maker on LJ (At peace - halfway there)
[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?)

[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.]
