Anytime, anywhere

[endthem]

[watching is what Legato does. Granted, he's been forced to do so from a much closer proximity than he's used to since the removal of his arm, but it is still a habit that he deeply indulges.

Observing the masses, tracking behaviors and motions on both a grand and minute scale. There is nothing new about this. However, instead of that dispassionate expression that constantly hangs on his face, his eyes seem to have a bit more life to them than usual. He is watching, but not as a man observes the meaningless activities of ants. No... Legato, for once, is not hating what he is seeing.

There is curiosity and perhaps the occasional bit of sorrow or confusion... but no hate]

((ooc: Legato and his new metal arm and lack of hate for humanity can be found just about anywhere in town. In the square, seated on benches or at cafe tables outside, bumming around the bakery, hanging around the clinic to get his arm checked on, etc))

Sometime, someplace

[goldenglasses]

[Vash had just been to the bakery to get a box of donuts and had planned on finding a good place to people watch and devour them. That is until his eyes fall on the man in the bench he was planning on sitting in.

Instead of turning to leave, in hopes of avoiding a confrontation, he sets his box down and starts to march up to stand in front of Legato.

He has some words for you.]

[endthem]

[he glances up as Vash's presence comes closer... though there is something of a surprised blink when he catches sight of that expression.

Goodness.

As Vash approaches--] Something wrong, Vash?

[goldenglasses]

Yes. I'm not going to stand to allow you to hurt my friends anymore. Stay away from them. If you so much as think of hurting any more of my friends, I'll kill you. Do you understand? I don't care how many times I have to do it. You won't hurt my friends anymore.

[endthem]

[his brow raises in surprise.

Was he hearing this correctly?]

That's a bit much, don't you think?

[goldenglasses]

No, my friends are precious to me and I refuse to lose any more to you. [He honestly doesn't understand why he didn't do this sooner. Their lives greatly utweigh yours after all.]

[endthem]

[he pushes himself slowly up to his feet, then]

It has taken you this long to come to that decision, mm?

[goldenglasses]

[Vash stands firm.]

It's taken too long for me to decide.

[endthem]

[an almost curious tilt of his head]

...Are you trying to frighten me?

[goldenglasses]

Only enough that you know that I am serious about this. I don't want to have to kill you here if I don't have to.

[endthem]

How many have I hurt here, Vash?

...Or is this anger over the past?

[goldenglasses]

Both, you have hurt people here and it's time I learn from the mistakes of my past. I'll do anything it take to protect my friends now, don't think I won't.

[endthem]

Anything?

[he can't help but smile]

Considering the poor job you've done of it in the past, I find that hard to believe.

[goldenglasses]

[Vash's hands clench into fists, but he bites his tongue for a few moments before speaking. You have a point after all.] I'm not going to let them down anymore.

[endthem]

...That is admirable talk at least.

[goldenglasses]

Don't make the mistake of thinking it's talk, Legato.
