to everyone who's been worried about burglars and weird strangers at your doorstep: it's me. PLEASE let me in, because i've been given a job, and that job is to make sure your house or hole in the dirt is soundproofed.

i'm not doing it out of civic duty, the locals still have most of my things and i'm only getting all of them back if i play nice. so i'm playing nice. help me help you make your residence death-free and i get my things back. we all win.

yours truly, a neighborhood quiet maintenance guy.

ps. does anyone have crabsticks?

you're a ridiculous person, meat loaf
i hope you're proud of yourself
because you're really amazingly something else i can't wrap my head around

and hey if i were insulting you i'd just insult you to your face

[ex_criticality719]

... you're really doing that nickname huh

And I really can't help who I am you know??
You just got to do what feels right to you.

[ Deep. But he's got several fabricated layers of personality going on, so what does he know. ]

i guess that's... is manly the right word?

[nishizono]

of course i am
snd i wouldn't call it manly so much as rude
you really like seeing the positive to other people, don't you?

i've never had that skill. what's it like?

[ex_criticality719]

i can't say i'm particularly glad about that
but maybe I can change your mind

[ Do you feel these sunshine and rainbows, my dude. ]

Way to put me on the spot! No one has ever asked me that before
it's a little lonely but i think it's worth it
if I can make one person feel like they mean something, it's the best feeling in the world

[ And if he could see his face when he types that, he'd get the impression it's less of a hippie ramble and more of a man clinging on to a desperate belief. ]

[nishizono]

[ he's being blinded by all this positivity what the heck ]

so you believe in the good in others
because of something like
i don't know, karma?
is that a thing where you're from

no one's ever given me a real reason to be kind or anything to other people, so i've never had to be a good person for anyone but myself.

[ex_criticality719]

no
I don't think there is a higher power or any special system like that in place
So, that's why we as people have to do our best to be that influence
Someone's got to, right?


[ And that ended up getting his only friend killed. He still hasn’t addressed that yet, but he does distinctly remember begging a God to spare Wolfwood's life. Funny how that happens. ]

Hm, you should try it some time. You might wear it better than you think.

[nishizono]

what, kindness?

[ the only person who was kind to him, for him and not for the men he represents in life, had ended up dead. maybe they have something in common with that fact, but it's a bitter commonality far as tetora's concerned. ]

maybe i'll try when i feel like it.
no promises.

[ex_criticality719]

yes
and mercy
and all those hard things

a maybe is better than a no!

[nishizono]

how are you so optimistic it's so fucking

argh

WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU

[ex_criticality719]

ahahah i've upset you
I'm sorry
You would have gotten along with some people I knew back home
They are of the same mind.

[nishizono]

I DON'T GET IT

you're really open and generous with people's outlook it's almost unbelievable

does it ever flag with you?

[ex_criticality719]

it's resulted in a few scrapes and bruises along the way
I had a good upbringing I guess

[nishizono]

i never had one of those, so.

[ex_criticality719]

[ He's not going to pry into that. He knows life is wild and rough and just about anything can happen to anyone. He's sure a touch based telepath has seen some messes. ]

I'm sorry. It's never easy, is it.

[nishizono]

[ more than just some - boy is he a font of horrors and nightmares. ]

i doubt it ever does. i'm over it, myself.

[ex_criticality719]

[ He very much doubts that, Tetora. He's had a century and a half to come to terms with the sudden destruction of said good upbringing. He is still a mess. ]

That's good. Dwelling and anger never helped anyone.

[ But practise what you preach, Vash. ]

[nishizono]

anger's the only thing that keeps me going anymore, can't agree with you.

[ex_criticality719]

hmm maybe you need a distraction
basket weaving is good
you know, get out there and find a new passion!

[nishizono]

basket weaving
you want me basket weaving

do i look like an anything-weaving kinda guy to you
