High Noon at July

[love_and_donuts]

[Private, unhackable]

On a sandy planet, a city was destroyed. "July" it was called. Not a soul left alive. I don't know how it happened, but I was the last one left alive. I stood amongst the rubble, a ragged brown tarp all I had to drape about me. My weak body had survived whatever blast took out the prospering capital. Everyone that I knew

*stares down intently for a few moments, arms crossed against his chest*

...What is wrong?

((Roommate-worry-despite-himself time~))

[love_and_donuts]

It's nothing, Miles.

I just ate something that didn't agree with me! *clutching his stomach* Hoooo boy, I might have to run to the bathroom at any moment's notice! Oh, yup. Yikes. That's the LAST time I eat at place...D8

... *not believing that for a second thank you.* I see.

Are you sure this has nothing to do with your recently recovered memories? That would seem an obvious factor in strange behavior so suddenly.

... ^_^ You're too smart for me, Miles.

*smile plastered on throughout* Yup. I remembered a...really horrible disaster.

It was unbelievable. A city was completely destroyed.

I should be dead...

*listens quietly throughout, glancing to the side* How did this occur? An entire city.. no wonder his demeanor. Hm

I imagine if the situations were switched you would be foolishly telling me how I should embrace the life I have been spared. Perhaps such advice would be helpful to you now.

I don't know...I can't remember.

Heh heh... I think you're right about that.

But...it's still difficult to stop my hands from shaking.

... Come have tea with me. *said as an order but he's trying, really*

[We can just assume they had tea, unless you'd actually like to log it again ^^ Say they talked about things]

[love_and_donuts]

Miles...

Heh. *sheepish grin* Thanks.

((Yeah maybe not log, but we could have them converse a little here anyway~ It takes forever for me to make log replies what with all the 3rd-person narrative, but just them talking would work for me~♥ 8D))

[Do talking here then~? Gotcha]

*makes hardcore tea for Vash, something sweet because he figured an idiot guy like him might like it. Miles doesn't particularly care for it, but oh well*

It's a shame your first memory here was so dark Mr. Vash. *pauses on this. He started calling Tamaki and Franziska - not going there, not going there..- by their first names, and he's certainly.. though he's loath to admit it.. more friendly with Vash then them. He struggles with this for a moment, taking a sip of his tea to cover before continuing* Perhaps it is simply a spell of bad luck.

*enjoys the relaxing effect the tea has* Yummy~♥

My first memory...? !! *suddenly starts clearing his throat, because obviously the tea must've gone down the wrong tube, yes, of course* Eh...heh...R-right, yeah.

*goes silent*

*puts his teacup down - and then suddenly bursts out the comedic tears of justice* OH, MILES, I'M SO STUPID. HERE I AM TAKING ADVANTAGE OF YOUR TRUST IN ME AND I'M HIDING ALL THIS STUFF FROM YOU *collapses to his hands and knees on the floor* AND I'M SO SORRY MAN I MEAN WHAT KIND OF TERRIBLE EXCUSE FOR A HUMAN BEING AM I AND OH WAAAAA~

((Sorry for the delay X_X Fail

And LMAO that icon is made of win XDDD))

*was in mid-sip when Vash started to make a scene, nearly choking on his tea when the other started yelling about being terrible and secrets. He manages to compose himself as quickly as he can, looking down at Vash with a stern yet bewildered expression.*

Va- What on earth are you talking about? You've hid something? *gets up and pulls Vash up, scolding* Get a hold of yourself.

*terribly ridiculous-sounding sniff*

I...

*lets Miles help him back into his chair* ...I didn't want you to...think I was a bad person. Eh heh, heh...it's funny, really.

*looks up at Miles, grinning through what is left of the tears on his cheeks* ...I'm a criminal.

*pauses at this to stare at Vash, noticing his staring after a moment and looking away, taking his seat once more and pinning the blonde with a serious expression.* Why would you say this?

[Filter]

[love_and_donuts]

Yup, I knew it...

*holding his chin in one hand, staring into space* I remembered about something else before this recent memory. I have a warrant out for my arrest. I was suspected in the murder of someone, a Count. The reward is $$60 billion double dollars.

^_^;; I know that no one here will come to collect the warrant here, at least I hope they won't, and even if they did there'd be no one here to give them the reward money, but...

*stays silent for a moment, absorbing this new information with surprising conflict. He looked over at Vash, it was Vash.. an idiot yes, harmless, perhaps not, but a bad person? Miles simply could not see it. It was foolish, ridiculously so, but Vash had proven himself time and time again a good man, and a good friend. Miles let out a soft sigh.*

I cannot see you capable of killing another man. *pauses, raising an eyebrow at Vash* I have no doubt you were framed, you're simply too idiotically sentimental to kill another human being.Wright informed me that I myself was framed for a murder once. This is proof ridiculous accusations pop up more often then they should.

As for reward money if anyone bothers you tell the patrolmen - they will deal with the fool.
