Snip Snap

Who: Sam, Nami, anyone
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: Bloodsport
When: 5th Feb

[The video feed cuts in on an angle, showing a clean bunk-room floor spattered with a few small traces of blood and a roll of gauze, and two people from the knees down; one wearing boots and sitting in a chair with his legs sprawled out, the other with custom heels standing behind him, keeping a steady stream of muttering--]

—my fault if I’m better than they are. [A bloodied gauze pad falls to the floor as she works.] You can’t hold a poker face, don’t play poker. [There’s a quiet hiss between teeth, and Nami’s low, quick apology. Sam huffs and twists, and there’s an audible crackle in his back somewhere — to which he grumbles:]

I really am getting too old for this.

Complain, complain. Here, this oughtta’ do it — I don’t… think it’ll scar. You should be good. Heh. [Sheepish.] … How old are you? In regular time.

I think I’m supposed to be thirty-something. Are we counting the last universe we were in? Anyway, you know, spiritually? Old man here. Pushing two centuries. Handle with care.

[Snort.] Spiritually maybe, but I’m pretty sure your bones aren’t that old. Quit complaining.

You can say that, but I have to write with this gimp hand. Stupid beer bottles. Remind me why I took up a bartending job.

You missed the excitement of home? [She rips off another piece of tape, sounding amused, and he gives a huffed laugh. Then a short, unsure pause.]

You okay? I mean, you had a moment back there. The guy with the freaky teeth.

[There’s a delay in answering as Nami works, then she replies too casually.] Yeah. Just took me by surprise, that’s all. Here— [There’s the sound of tissues being yanked from a box.] Stop bleeding all over my floor. [And after a moment, a change of subject:] Uh. I’m sorry.

You serious? Don’t even worry about it. Dean’s got us into dumber bar fights. Uhm… but, uh. Your hair is… Kind of…? [Spoken like a man who does not want to face a navigator’s wrath, and he trips over his words like they’re his gangly-ass legs.] It’s looking…

Hey I’m sure it’s in fashion somewhere in the universe. [Though there’s a long still pause, and then the heels move suddenly, turning away] It’s okay. It’s not practical anyway. I’ll just… tidy it. Or something.

[Sam rises up, turning on his heel as well. There’s a pat-pat as he taps the chair.]

I’ll just have to give it the Winchester treatment. We’re great barbers. Because, you know. Hunters are cheap-asses.

Uh-huh. Have you seen your hair lately?

… Wow, what’s that supposed to mean? [Off-camera, he flips it rather pathetically out of his face.]

It means I don’t think I’ve ever seen you cut it in the entire time I’ve known you. I’ve seen sheepdogs with bangs shorter than yours!

… Well… Fine. You cut mine, I’ll cut yours.

Mmmm… Sounds like fun. [Huehuehue.] But I’ll go first. I need to get rid of this lopsided look.

[There’s a click-clack as Nami sits down proper in the chair, and a woosh of what was likely some sort of medical paper as he wraps it around her neck carefully. Mostly because he knows the pains of John trimming his hair and letting it all fall down his shirt. And then, dramatically, he snips at the air.]

Don’t move. I’m known to be very dangerous with sharp objects.

Oh no. I’m terrified. [But she does keep still. She trusts you, Sam. And soon after, a long lock of orange hair falls to the floor by her feet. Sam wanders in focused circles around her, snipping here and there. If the camera could see him, there’d no doubt be a tongue poking out of the corner of his mouth. The concentration is too real today. Snip, snipsnackt — After a long moment, he leans back.]

I think… That should do it. [He sounds unconfident at first, but… then he hums a more comfortable hum of approval.] Yeah, I think. What do you think?

Hold on. I need a mirror. Or maybe I can take a photo-- [A moment later, the comm is picked up and Nami’s slightly battered face squints into it and… kind of realises it’s on. Welp.



Then with a cheeky grin, it gets put down more gently on the bed, showing the chair properly this time instead of the lower angle of it.] It’ll do. Sit. [She figures someone will tell her if her hair is a disaster soon enough. Sam, though, looks a bit nervous on second thought as he sits and appears in frame, bruises and cuts and all.]

… You’ve cut someone’s hair before, right?

[Nami laughs delicately, rounding behind the chair with a snip-snap of the scissors as she picks them up and gives her best innocent expression to the camera.]
Don’t worry so much!

...of course I haven’t.

[As innocent as a lamb~

Sam squirms and gulps.]


Hey, is your feed on?

[Snickt.] Nope.

You're both okay, right? [Said at the start at seeing the bandages and waiting to be noticed.

Of course, as the conversation goes on it's pretty easy to see that they're fine. So onto the dramatics.]
Nami! Your beautiful hair!

[Sorry, Vash, for not hearing you. Probably it was muffled enough by rumpled bunk covers and random banter and pained sounds. |D But Nami certainly hears you now.]

What, does it look hideous now? Do I have to hit my hairdresser?

[It's... certainly a lot shorter. And given there's a hairline cut that's been carefully stitched, Vash can probably take a guess at how she lost a chunk.]

[personal profile] goldenglasses 2016-02-07 12:43 am (UTC)(link)
No, I suppose you don't have to hit him. Although he does have it easy with you as you'd look amazing even if you had no hair.

I guess, I was just, surprised is all! I didn't think you'd want to cut it. [He says want. Wondering if it will prompt the reason why it was cut and if it was indeed relating to that cut he can now see.]
namisan: (you don't say)

[Video]

[personal profile] namisan 2016-02-07 07:52 am (UTC)(link)
[She didn't want to cut it. It's kind of sad to see all that work go to waste. But on the other hand, Nami isn't going to make a big deal out of it, either. There are more important things than hair.

She'll feel bad about it for a couple days, maybe, but in the meantime she treats it casually--]
Eh, well. A girl could do with a change now and then, right? I wore my hair short for years, you know.

[Back when it was more practical and she couldn't fight from a distance. Well... she doesn't have the climatact anymore. It's kinda like going back in time.]

Oh yeah? Well, I can see why. It suits you. I like it!
namisan: (shootin the breeze)

[personal profile] namisan 2016-02-07 10:45 am (UTC)(link)
Great! Well, that's one vote in favour.

[Toph's doesn't count. >:c]

[personal profile] goldenglasses 2016-02-08 12:22 pm (UTC)(link)
So. Think you'll be doing anything else in the near future that will lead to another hair cut?
namisan: (got ur wallet)

[Video]

[personal profile] namisan 2016-02-09 02:20 am (UTC)(link)
Well, these kinds of decisions are spontaneous. Who knows?
goldenglasses: Maker on LJ (Hello~!)

[Video]

[personal profile] goldenglasses 2016-02-09 11:55 am (UTC)(link)
Well let me know if something else happens. If need be I can teach you how to style your hair into a Mohawk.
namisan: (amusement)

[Video]

[personal profile] namisan 2016-02-10 09:44 am (UTC)(link)
I actually already know! But thanks anyway.

[You can blame her mom for that one.]

goldenglasses: Maker on LJ (Hey!!! Me likey!)

[Video]

[personal profile] goldenglasses 2016-02-13 01:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, I wish you had pictures of that. I bet you looked either really cute or one tough as nails bad-ass chick!
namisan: (easy there tough guy)

[Video]

[personal profile] namisan 2016-02-15 07:57 am (UTC)(link)
What, are you saying I can't be cute and tough as nails at the same time?
goldenglasses: Maker on LJ (Default)

[Video]

[personal profile] goldenglasses 2016-02-15 09:35 am (UTC)(link)
I'm not saying you can't be both. I'm saying the looks would probably be one or the other.

I didn't think I did too bad...

[Vash, don't make him re-think his hairdo maneuvers.

Maybe he should just stick to lopping off a hunter's hair...]


Everything's fine, though. Just kinda' got into a big scuffle at a bar.

You know how it goes. Rowdy on it's best days?

[personal profile] goldenglasses 2016-02-07 12:48 am (UTC)(link)
It's not bad, really. I just didn't expect her to cut so much off. It looks great. [Of course he'd say that right now even if it didn't because Nami can hear this.]

And, yeah, I think I can picture a few bars like that. One or two. [Or lots.] But I'm glad you're both okay.

[personal profile] collegedropout 2016-02-07 06:32 am (UTC)(link)
Uh, thanks.

[He's mildly distracted by that hair, though.

You're commenting on hairstyles when you've got... that all going on??]


I'm Sam. Uh. Nice to meet you.

[He's an expert stylish, not cutter.] I'm Vash. Good to meet you too before you end up bald.

Oh, ha ha. Nice.

You should be careful; who knows who'll put hair remover in your shampoo.

[personal profile] goldenglasses 2016-02-08 12:16 pm (UTC)(link)
You do know if anything happens to my hair now I'll know who's cot to put itching powder in. And much, much more.

[personal profile] collegedropout 2016-02-09 10:39 am (UTC)(link)
What? That's a little dramatic!

If something happens, I had nothing to do with it; I'm a peace-loving sort.
goldenglasses: Maker on LJ (Ideas forming! And that is never good!)

[Video] Oh god no..... WHY

[personal profile] goldenglasses 2016-02-09 11:54 am (UTC)(link)
Oh yeah? Then you should know what this world is made of, then?

[personal profile] goldenglasses 2016-02-13 01:49 pm (UTC)(link)
No! See! If you were truly a peace-loving sort, such as myself, then you would know that the right answer is that this world is made of LOVE AND PEACE!

[He'd apologies for your ear drums if he cared.]

[Sam gives a long, unsure stare at the camera.

Is this a new social movement? Are we bringing back the hippies? Make love, not war??

STAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARE.]



Uhm.
namisan: (wow so that just happened)

[personal profile] namisan 2016-02-15 08:42 am (UTC)(link)
[And then Nami

leans over Sam's shoulder with a cheerful expression and gives Vash a wave.

And disconnects you. :D Bye.]


What a weirdo.
