[This morning finds Vash waking up in the forest. He doesn’t remember much, except that his head hurts, but at least the Malnosso left him in his clothes for once. He sits for a moment, waiting for his head to clear a bit, before opening his journal.]

[Filtered to Meryl and Wolfwood // 100% Unhackable]Uh, haha… I’m back. Hope you guys weren’t too

Ah, thanks Meryl.

...I'm sorry, I didn't get a chance to warn you.

[bernardelli]

With him here... it would have been nice.

Filtered

[goldenglasses]

I'm sorry! The bots didn't really give me a chance! [Considering the last time they tried to grab him, he took them on a tour of the town - they figured quick and drugs would be better! 8|b]

...how was he while I was gone. No trouble?

[ ... She can't give him reason to leave. ]

No, nothing happened here.

[Sighs] That's good, I'm glad.

[bernardelli]

Just come home...

Filtered

[goldenglasses]

Right away! [And by right away... we mean Wolfwood had to go get him because he fell asleep. But he'll get home eventually! Heck! Wolfwood even sneaks out to the bar later so they can have the place alone again. Like old times... aw.]

I'll be there. [ And she will. She doesn't have much reason to leave, anyway. ]

[He'll come home with Wolfwood... eventually... he just looks tired, but otherwise alright!] H-hey there Meryl; sorry I'm late.

[bernardelli]

[ What? Home late? See Meryl sleeping upright on the couch, in an apron. ]

[goldenglasses]

[Derp, look what you did now Vashy-boy. You fell asleep and made Meryl wait so long she fell asleep! Now for the hard decision - wake her? Or let her sleep? Which will end in a smaller beating?

Well, that couch in that position probably won't be too comfortable in a few hours. He'll gently tap your shoulder.] Hey there Meryl, if you're going to sleep on a couch might as well lay down on it.

[bernardelli]

[ She glances up, groggy, and mumbles something. ]

Huh... Vash...?

[goldenglasses]

The man that would slaughter the innocents? Does the most evil of evil deeds with the price of sixty billion double dollars on his head? Why, yes! I am that man!

[Maybe if he jokes and acts like everything is okay, she won't worry he took so long!]

Oh wait... you heard that one before haven't you?

[bernardelli]

[ She groans sleepily and rubs her eyes. Sleep has not been her friend, this week. Not since she'd heard that man... That man... is looking for her. He knows about Guy and Guy doesn't seem to understand the situation as well as she'd like. She heaved a sigh and mumbles again. ]

Yes, I have... you're late.

[goldenglasses]

Yeah, sorry, I ran into a few friends who were glad to see I was alright on the way here. [Lies, but you two are lying to him, so it's fair!]
