Long Goodbye

...Miles...

((Vash got yelled at for making several mistakes at work, anybody else who works as a Farmhand! Feel free to notice. He's also walking around like a zombie and wearing his eyeglasses everywhere, hiding his eyes because of the glare they provide. He's missed two mornings of exercising, Ranulf! Got up too late and all. He dropped $80 at

*at the bar, drinking whiskey or some similarly liver-crushing drink*

You've got the look of a man who's drinking for all the wrong reasons.

[love_and_donuts]

*siiiiiiip*

*clunks glass on the bar*

...Do I? I've always thought I looked like a broom.

'Cause of my hair, see.

If I didn't know better, I'd think you were dodging the issue.

What's your name, broom?

[love_and_donuts]

....

Vash the Stampede.

If you want to collect the warrant, you'll have to wait until I'm done with this whiskey, thankies.

[leadsneverdie]

*after drink number too-many*

Don't suppose your liver would like you to call it a night?

[love_and_donuts]

*hiccup*

...No, it's totally fine.

*swigs*

Wha's yer name.

[leadsneverdie]

At the moment, I'd like to call myself the Voice of Reason.

As it stands, I'm simply Balthier.

[love_and_donuts]

Balthier...

Do you live in the'partments? Nice place. *goofy and, because his eyes are obscured by his glasses, kinda creepy grin* I live there.

'll by m'self.

[Farmhand, hi!]

Um...are you okay?

[love_and_donuts]

*cleaning up whatever mess or mix-up he caused at the farm*

*low tone* I apologize. I'll be more on top of things.

*one might notice that usually, Vash practically WHISTLES while he works*

[epicdigger]

No, no, it's okay!

[Helping him to clean it up]

Everyone has an off day sometimes, after all... I just meant you seem really sad today.

[love_and_donuts]

...

*glances at Simon - he didn't know it was that obvious* Oh...

*work work work* No, I'm fine. Like you said, I'm just having an off day.

What's your name?

[king_of_thunder]

... Usually, you at least try to look like nothing happened.

[love_and_donuts]

...I'm sorry. I can't...

[king_of_thunder]

"Sorry"? For what?

... Whatever. Your poor acting was annoying.

[[ooc: Too bad Ren can only comfort others by insulting them or something. *headdesk* Well, it does work with some people...]]

[love_and_donuts]

*painful smile* ...Heh. I'll keep that in mind.

((It works on Vash! :D))

[for_the_queen]

Vash.

Did... did you lose someone too?

[love_and_donuts]

...

Miles is...

[for_the_queen]

Miles... A friend of yours, I take it. ...I'm so sorry.

[love_and_donuts]

*the fakest and most strained smile you've ever seen* He was the only one...that I ever...
