[Grune loves taking walks in the woods. She likes listening to the birds chirping and the river flowing...

...but she doesn't like listening to glass shattering and people sobbing.

She walks in the direction of that second, heartbreaking sound, not quite sure who she's about to find as she calls out:] Hello? Is someone there?

[Vash knows he's way to upset and drunk to deal with Grune of all people in person. So he doesn't answer her call, but he doesn't move either.]

[Grune wanders a little closer, and then:] ...Vash? Is something the matter?

[Vash sits where he was with his glasses on his face, not bothering to look up.] I'm fine.

Are you sure? [He doesn't look all right. He looks sad.]

[Grune just sort of…looks at him for a moment or two. Then, she walks over and sits down next to him under his tree.]

[Vash moves his head away, so he doesn't have to look at her. He's afraid if he looks he might not be able to keep himself from crying again.]

[After another moment, Grune reaches out to take his hand, if he lets her.] Are you sure you're all right? You look a little sad.

*kicks Vash* Normally he's so talkative! goldenglasses July 22 2011, 02:21:05 UTC
[He lets her, but it's limp in her hand.] Yes. I'm fine.

I've done a 32-comment thread with Dhaos with him saying nothing but "Nn," once. This is nothing. XD lostinmyway July 22 2011, 02:27:48 UTC
[She laces their fingers together anyway.] Hmm. All right.

[And that's all Vash has to say for the moment.]

[Grune is quiet for a little while, too. She starts to hum at one point, looking around aimlessly at the view.]

[It's the quiet that eventually gets to him. The sobbing starts up again and he brings a hand to his eyes.]

Oh, my. [So he really was sad.

She lets go of his hand, but only so she can put her arm around his shoulders and try to pull him into a hug.]

[And for awhile, that's all Vash does. Once or twice he tries to say something, but the words get muddled in his drunken mind.]
