Under a lot of construction! But feel free to comment if you feel you should be on here. Vash never forgets a face so really if he at least got your name you should probably be up here. Chances are you're on my list; but it's long so feel free to comment!

Jan. 22nd, 2019 11:20 pm[As soon as Time touches the feather the desert vanishes and he'll find himself sitting around a table with three people sitting around with him. Several empty bottles litter the table and each person has a glass in front of them.
A nearly forgotten poster advertising a quick draw tournament is currently being used as a coaster.
Milly, the woman with long hair is smiling.] Oh. Let's see. This is getting hard! [Her face is slightly flushed from all the drinking the group have done so far.] Never have I ever... oh! Crashed a car!
[You feel yourself pout.] I said I was sorry! And I carried the both of you to town in the end. Won't you ever forgive me?
[The shorter one smiles around her glass but she doesn't drink from it.] Nope.
[Milly looks a bit surprised.] Oh yeah. I forgot all about that.
[Both him and Meryl look back at Milly in surprise.] HOW COULD YOU FORGET THAT?!
[The other man seems to be too busy considering the drink in his glass to join in that amazement.] Does a motorcycle crash count? I don't think it counts. It's not a car.
Oh, well, I haven't been in a motorcycle accident either, Mr. Priest! So I guess that means you drink!
[The boys grumble, but in a good nature sort of way, and take a drink from their glasses.] My turn now, right? [Wolfwood smirks in Vash's direction.] Never have I ever had a bounty on my head.
HEY!
Drink up, Stampede. [Wolfwood sneers as the two girls laugh as you alone drink.]
Never have I ever- [Meryl starts before you have even finished drinking with a wink towards Wolfwood's direction.] Styled my hair in a way that tries to defy gravity.
[You takes another shot as your three friends laugh together.] Well, fine never have I ever stalked a man across the desert.
[Meryl shrugs and takes a drink where as Milly looks slightly concerned.] We don't stalk you, Mr. Vash. We follow you for work.
Well, fine then I haven't followed someone all over the planet because of work.
[Milly nods, satisfied, and takes her drink.] Never have I ever, um, [The tall woman pauses and tries to think quickly.] Oh! Spent a night in jail. [Once again both boys drink.] You too, Mr. Priest?
It was a misunderstanding is all! [You mutter: yeahright under your breath so Wolfwood looks you directly in the eyes in response.] Never have I ever been shot in the stomach by Brilliant Dynamites Neon before.
THAT'S CHEATING! [You cry out and shove your friend in the shoulder as he laughs at his own cunning.]
Nope! It's fair! Drink up, Vash! [Meryl says as she helpfully refills your glass. As you down your drink, enjoying the burn from the strong alcohol as it goes down, she takes her turn.] Never have I ever caused so much damage that I had insurance agents assigned to me.
Hey! [You take another drink as Milly now figures out what the other two have been doing.]
Hahaha! Never have I ever been chased by an entire town! [You drink once again. You also can't remember a time you felt so comfortable with a group of people to allow yourself to drink this much. In fact, you may actually finally be getting drunk despite your high tolerance.]
Can we play a different game now? [You plead as you put your head down on the table feeling slightly attacked by them, but in a good fr. The friends laugh and pull out a deck of cards to play instead.
It's a good night. Filled with friends and good times. It had been such a long time since you've had a night like tonight. It feels great.
That is until the drink really starts to add up. Then it feels a little less great, but still good. The four of them stay up really late and eventually the two Insurance Girls, as Vash like to call them, eventually leave to head to bed. Wishing you good luck at the competition tomor-- today as they leave.
The hotel room door opens as they exit and suddenly Tim will be back in the desert. The feathers still fall all around and in all colors still. The glint in the distance is getting closer. Do you continue on? Avoid the feathers? Or try to touch more.

Jan. 20th, 2019 10:39 pmWhen you enter Vash's room the man himself is no where to be seen. At first it may seem like there is nothing but endless desert, but squint and off in the distance there's a glint of light reflecting off a shiny surface. You will feel a pull towards that glint. Something you can't quite put words too, but a feeling of familiarity calls you towards it's direction. Continue forward and eventually soft colorful feathers begin to rain down from the sky. They drift down slow enough that they could be avoided or collected, but should you touch any of them a memory will trigger.
Once you reach that item out in the distance it is revealed to be a giant light bulb. If you have not viewed any memories all that will be inside in a round ball that somewhat looks like it could be made from organic tissue. Between one and two memories viewed and there will be vaguely humanoid shape of a naked woman starting to emerge from the sphere. Between you and the glass her skin looks as if tinted light blue. Her hair appears to look a bit like the feathers that still fall and are also tinted slightly blue. There's also the hint that she has extra limbs and body parts still waiting to emerge from that ball. Having viewed three or more feathers and the creature inside will be fully awake. Her eyes black open and empty, but a friendly smile on her face. She's strangely beautiful even with strange extra body parts that seem to grow out from her. You feel no fear looking at her.
She reaches out her hands and presses them onto the glass. Waiting. That strange sense is stronger now that you are in front of her. She radiates the feeling of kinship and eventually you'll get the additional feeling of what she's waiting for. Ask her your question and she will try to answer it. The feathers still continue to fall all around.
OOC: The Plant will tell you where the exit is if asked or where Vash is hiding. It will also answer any specific questions your character might have about Vash. Although the answers will be portrayed through feeling and could come out murky.
See the below list for the type of memory you'll see for each feather color! When it says random it is because I have a few key memories written and they'll be passed out though an RNG I have set up! A couple RNG have potentially triggering content in it, but if you let me know they can be easily removed!
You can pick multiple of the same color feather. You'll either get a different memory from the theme. Or at least a continuation of the the core memory.
White feathers: Random sad memory (CW: likely to involve death or violence)
Purple feathers: Random happy memory
Green feather: Memory of Lost July or the destruction of Augusta (CW: contains body horror, violence, and mass destruction/death)
Red feather: Random childhood memory (CW: RNG could land on child abuse – if you wish to avoid please let me know.)
Pink feather: The Big Fall (CW: Death of a family member)
Blue feather: The final showdown with Legato (CW: death and violence)
Yellow feather: Memory of how he got a random scar (CW: Violence, blood, ect.)
Brown feather: Random Gun-Ho Gun fight (CW: Violence, death)
Black feather: Random Wolfwood memory (CW: RNG could land on a memory involving death – if you wish to avoid please let me know.)

One Last Post
Mar. 28th, 2015 11:05 am[It's nearly time to leave. Vash is all packed and ready to leave in the next couple days. So he takes a couple hours out of each day before the departure to do some walking down memory lane. Over five years. Never before had he ever stayed in one location for so long since The Fall.
There's the house where he lived with his family. The bakery that gave him so many donuts and he once broke into with an old man and a pirate. Good Spirits where he spent many nights. Seventh Heaven where had some of the best food of his life. He sits at his favorite spot next to the fountain for people watching. So many hours spent here just watching people.
Walking through the forest to remember what the world looks like in green. A quick teleport to the beach to see the ocean on last time. It was still so breathtaking. The smells, sounds, and the magnitude he'll never forget.
He lingers at the flower shop where he got to spend every day surrounded by flowers. He hopes whoever decides to stay will take care of the place. He takes a few of the flowers and presses them into his journal. He tries to use older entries in the hopes he won't pester everyone else with sudden flowers, but today he just really doesn't care too much. He wants to take some of this color back with him to the desert.
Perhaps it will even catch a moment where Vash talks out loud to himself for your character her hear.]
I... I don't want to go.
(OOC: Literally catch Vash ANYWHERE. He will be visiting all locations of Luceti as he tries to remember it all before he has to make a choice to stay or go.)

[The video feed starts up mid afternoon with Vash grinning into the camera. For those good at picking up differences in smiles there's a huge difference in Vash's today. You thought he was happy before by the way he smiled and acted? Well, now he's beaming because he's finally, truly happy. He's no longer just pretending and the reason will be pretty clear as he finishes setting up the camera so he can sit on his couch with a small boy on his lap.]
Hello, Luceti! [He nearly shouts the greeting. Hardly able to contain how happy he is.] Your local Vash the Stampede wanting to apologize for missing out on work and not being around. I'll be back at Azalea and Seventh Heaven soon! I've just been a bit busy! [He grins and bounces his leg to make the boy on his leg bounce slightly.] Right Noah?
[The boy nods, but stays quiet.] But we also have an important message as well! Ready, Noah? Just as I showed you, okay?
[Noah prepares by holding up his arm and looking up at Vash for confirmation as Vash clears his throat 'dramatically'.]
This world is made of- LOVE! AND! PEACE!
[As Vash shouts his message he and Noah both pump their arms back and forth. Vash more confidant and Noah a bit hesitant, but with a smile on his face. Back and forth they go as Vash continues to say the mantra. Fingers spread in a V shape when their arms are pulled back then the fingers cross together as the arms are pumped forward. Noah doesn't join with the shouting, but he seems to be having some fun with the arm movements.]
LOVE! AND! PEACE! LOVE! AND! PEACE! LOVE! AND! PEACE! LOVE! AND! PEACE!
[And somewhere in the background, for those who can hear past the screaming, may be a priest shouting about not using his son to spread propaganda.]

Voice/Action
Nov. 24th, 2014 09:12 pm[Vash has been very busy the last couple days since returning from the past. He'd been pouring over his journal. Reading what had been changed and what hadn't. It also took him a day to really get up the courage to ask. What if things had changed so much that Noah no longer existed?
Early morning on Monday he opens his journal.]
Who do I need to speak with about kids who have been removed from Luceti? And about getting them back? I want to know more about Noah Wolfwood.
[Please. Please don't tell him that he's no longer there. He's hoping that now things have changed (for the better it seems) he's hoping maybe he could now get the boy back.
While he waits for someone to see his question and respond Vash will be trying to get his life into a somewhat normal routine again. Visiting Seventh Heaven to do his job of helping out there for the morning. For lunch he'll be stopping by the bakery for his normal doughnut haul and eating them while people watching near the fountain. Later in the day he'll also be working at the flower shop. He'll also take a wander through the forest to see if anything had changed very much before he ends his night at Good Spirits for a couple drinks before bed.]

[Voice] 100% Locked from Law
Oct. 6th, 2014 12:30 pmHey everyone! I hope everyone is settling in alright! I know there's a lot to get use to right now. Time traveling and such, but I just found out it's Law's birthday tomorrow! Think we should do something to make it special even if we are back in time at the moment. Like a surprise birthday dinner!
Now, we don't exactly have a lot of food here, but if people would like to come over for dinner and bring a little something to share I'm sure we could have a good time! I'll even trade... ah... something... for it? [He laughs.] Although I have to admit, I'm not very skilled past manual labor, but I'll sure try if you could help out!
For example, is anyone a really good baker? Law, can't have gluten and I have no idea how to avoid the stuff. But I think you can? Or... maybe not? Anyway! Suggestions for a birthday cake of some sort would be greatly appreciated!
[OOC: There will be a log post for tomorrow for people to mingle. Vash would just like some help with the planning for now!]

Sep. 24th, 2014 09:13 pm[Forest]
[It was getting colder so Vash was spending more time out in the woods. Enjoying the nature that was turning colors and feeling just a little sad watching some of the flowers he had planted in Rem's memory dying once more.] Well, little guys. I suppose it's nearly time for you to sleep again, huh? [Yes, he talks to flowers.] You were very pretty this year. I'll-- [He always sees Rem in his mind when he's out in the forest, but then she's just suddenly there. Vash's heart clenches tight in his chest for a moment as she looks down at something he can't see. Not that he notices, too busy staring at her happy smile.]
R-Rem! You're back! I can't believe it! [She was alive again. Where he can finally see her in person again.] Rem! [Why wasn't she answering him? He steps forward to touch her.] Ah, maybe you don't remember- [Something wasn't right. His eye sight had picked it up right from the start the way she wasn't quiet there. Yet his mind refused to believe it.] It's me, Vash. I've grown-- [Only he can't deny what his eyes see once his hand passes right through her arm. It's also then that he realizes he's been crying the whole time.]
Rem. [Even though she is nothing but a memory he can't look away. Soaking in this rare moment to see her. The ghost of her laughter in his mind. Or did he really hear it? Then the image starts to fade.] No. Don't go, Rem! Please don't go. [The plea is empty. He knows she's not really there. Yet it hurt to watch her go once again.]
[Outside Houses 6 and 5 - All week, any time]
[It didn't take Vash long to figure out what was going on. As soon as he did he parked himself outside houses 6 and 5. Either standing or squatting quietly between the two buildings. Eyes calm as he stares at the empty homes. For hours and hours nothing will happen, but Vash has a hundred and thirty years of practice under his belt. He hardly notices the hours ticking by. Only noticing days by the sun setting and rising which is when he heads home for bed.
Eventually his quiet and patient waiting will be rewarded by brief images throughout the days. A pre-teen Wolfwood dragging his cross behind him gets a smile from the gunman. Then there's a man with a long nose making a snowman in the front yard. He can almost smell the cigarette smoke as he watches Sanji yell from the kitchen window. At one point Meryl walks by. Seems she was upset by something that day, probably something he did. A man with white hair sits quietly on the roof. The roof seems to be a popular spot as Nami suddenly drops in the day after. One of his favorites is watching Milly wrangle a Christmas tree into the house with Noah in her arms.
He's happy to wait for the images to come. These now being the only way to see his family.]
[Accidental Music]
[It's a bit after watching a certain skeleton fade through the front door of house six does Vash think of something to do to pass the time between the next glimpse. He takes a now well used harmonica and starts to play. Of course he doesn't realize that the motion to take out the harmonica has turned the recording to the journal on. At some point the song will slowly change into another song. Eventually he'll catch on his journal is recording, but even after his turns it off he'll continue his vigil and play bits of songs he's heard during his time his time in Luceti as best he can on his humble instrument. Uncaring whatever the weather may be that day.]

[Vash woke up early on the morning of the 18th. His birthday. Another year in Luceti and another year older. He was what... 135, 136 now? It's a bit iffy with the way time works in Luceti. He pets the cats for a bit before moving onto his morning training. Once that's done he washes, styles his hair, finishes off breakfast, and opens the journal.]
Heyyyyyyy, Luceti! I know this place can be a bit awful sometimes, but never forget what this world and all worlds are really made of! For you see, this world is really made of--
LOVE AND PEACE! LOVE! AND! PEACE! LOVE! AND! PEACE! LOVE! AND! PEACE!
[As he shouts at the top of his lungs into the journals he also pumps his arms. Fingers spread in a V sign for peace up near his head, then the fingers cross together as he pumps his arm forward. He repeats the motion over and over as he shouts.] LOVE! AND! PEACE! LOVE! AND! PEACE! LOVE! AND! PEACE! LOVE! AND! PEACE! LOVE! AND! PEACE! LOVE! AND! PEACE! LOVE! AND! PEACE! Everybody join in! LOVE! AND! PEACE!
[He couldn't think of a better way to celebrate his birthday then by not focusing on himself, but spreading the idea of love and peace.]
