When We're Rollin Through the Wild Wild West

Who: Everyone! EVERYONE!
Broadcast: IF YOU WANNA
Action: Everywhere! EVERYWHERE!
When: Mid-September - Mid-October

[How's your ship doing, pardners? Is it still pretty damaged? Is it glitching out hardcore? Well, there is one place to land to take care of all that, and that's on a dusty old moon in front of a planet that no one wants to go to. On this moon, you'll find a civilization that looks a lot like one's stepped into a wild west movie, hardened cowpolk and mutant horses and all. Will you become a vigilante, hunting bounties and stopping gangs from doing their dirty work? Will you go exploring planetside, with a cowboy hat and a stalk of wheat in your mouth to complete the look? Good luck with that; there is no wheat. This town ain't big enough for all you flooters, but make it so! For the ratings!

In other words, it's a planet mingle! Get 'er done!]

[well! as Nel is suddenly looking up at Vash in wide-eyed horror, his new burly friend seems to not be taking kindly to this interruption.

the thug growls and goes to shrug the lanky stranger off of his shoulders, trying to elbow him back.]


Hey-- back off! The kid's busy.

[Vash let's himself be shoved. Letting go of the thug, but not Nel as he stumbles back into him from the shove. He keeps a firm grip on the elf to help keep them both on their feet as he steps back.

Only as he stumbles it looks like Vash just let's his arm drop, but Nel may feel a quick pressure as Vash casually pulls his wrist out of the thug's grip. Slipping the elfish wrist between the weak point of the man's thumb and fingers. It's over and out before anyone can blink. In fact seems to look like his arm just pulled out as Vash stumbled back into Nel.]


Yeah he is! We're off to the bar, right Nel? You really should come with! It's going to be a lot of fun!

[Nel gasps a second late as he realizes that Vash managed to pull him free... but the thug is much quicker to notice.

as soon as his prize slips out of his grasp, the thug leaps into action. growling and reaching for his weapon, he goes lunging right for the two of them.]

[That's good for him! Vash hardly seems to notice. Laughing and with a grip still on Nel, Vash spins them both around to head in a different directions. Moving at the last second to let the lunging thug go flying past them with his momentum and somehow Vash's foot gets in the way! Opps. How did that happen?

Not that Vash seems to notice. Too busy laughing and having a good time.]
I can't wait to get there! It's going to be so much fun!

Vash--

[Nel is scared, because Vash has done such a good job of appearing like he has no idea what he's doing, he has the elf completely fooled. Nel's voice is quiet and urgent. not quite pulling on his sleeve to get his attention and try to get him to stop making the thug mad, but very close to it.

and, of course, the thug doesn't care if Vash does know what he's doing or not. he's pissed off either way, with the man in red now adding insult to injury.

so, as soon as the thug catches his balance and whirls around, he's drawing his weapon at the same time.]


--He's mine, punk!
goldenglasses: Maker on LJ (Teehee! I'm going to kill you!)

[Vash has always enjoyed the idiot act. He debates apologizing to Nel later for all of this.

Vash turns towards the punk a bit more and maneuvers Nel away from the weapon. Ready to dodge and keep Nel safe from any attack the man thinks he's going to try to make with an amused chuckle.]
Haha! You're funny! People can't own people. Look if you don't want to come drinking and have some fun then we'll see you afterwards. Later! [Derp-a-derp. Walking away like the weapon is nothing.]

[and, of course, the guy is going to shoot at Vash's back, thinking he has an easy and very stupid target in front of him.]
goldenglasses: Maker on LJ (I will fuck you up)

[personal profile] goldenglasses 2015-10-02 08:43 pm (UTC)(link)
[Vash didn't really want to embarrass the guy this much, but if he's insisting! He will probably have to apologize later for Nel for the way Vash suddenly uses his whole body to push him out of the way. One arm wrapped around the Elf to carefully hold him upright and guide him to keep him on his feet as Vash whirls around his own gun suddenly out somewhere in the midst of all that.

The bullet flies off safely, hitting no one, but now the shooter has a gun leveled right next to his ear. Vash's voice takes on an icy edge to it as he now speaks. He didn't like being shot at very much; even when he did deserve it. That and now was the time to make his point.]
I don't think you heard me, friend. No one can own anyone. Nel is free to leave if he wants. Anyone can leave when they want.

[An unspoken message for this guys real buddies to either take off running or get hurt. Or anyone else stuck there like Nel to make their break for it.] Understand?

[anyone else around is certainly taking this as their cue to get lost while the gunman in the red coat his his sights fixed on someone else.

Nel's kidnapper, however, is a little harder to convince. he's looking a little hesitant, but he's still got his weapon raised and leveled, holding his ground for now.]


You don't want to mess with our business over this, boy. Drop the kid and go home!
goldenglasses: Maker on LJ (Ideas forming! And that is never good!)

[personal profile] goldenglasses 2015-10-08 11:35 pm (UTC)(link)
[Vash can't help a small snicker escape at being called a boy.] No, I'm pretty sure I may be older than you. [Not as sure as if he had been on his planet, but still pretty confident.]

And I don't think I'll be doing that. What kind of friend and crewmate would I be if I just left my buddy here with you? Pretty terrible, I'd think!

Besides, you wouldn't want this gun of mine going off now, would you? It would make an awful mess that I'm in no mood to clean up. So why don't we both just agree to disagree this time and go our own ways. Sound good?
