That is not about to happen.

By the way, Vash. I have met one of your friends already.

Human. From ancient Japan. Long black hair. Well-mannered, for a human. Female. Dead as I am?

[Good luck trying to get him to remember her name though.]

[God DAMN it, Tomoe!!!]

[goldenglasses]

[No. No. It's okay. This is fine. This is probably fine.]

[goldenglasses]

[THIS IS NOT FINE!!! TOMOE CAN'T DEFEND HERSELF! SHE WAS THE LAST PERSON VASH WOULD HAVE CHOOSEN TO INTRODUCE HIS BROTHER TO!]

[goldenglasses]

[Either way it's too late now and at least Knives didn't sound disgusted talking about her.

For the love of Rem he can't let Knives find out about some of the stuff this city has forced them to do together.

Crap. Crap. Crap. Crap. Crap!]

[goldenglasses]

[Well... at least it wasn't Azwel who would likely over share. Tomoe would keep the sex at the very least private. So, maybe this isn't all bad.]

Done with the comments (for now) but don't think Vash isn't still freaking out on the inside

[goldenglasses]

[Wait. How long has it been? SHIT! He needs to say SOMETHING to his brother!!!

When he finally speaks he sounds very relaxed and casual.]

Oh?

[Say something more than that you idiot.]

That sounds like Tomoe. [If Knives might one day hurt her he should at least learn her name.] She has been very kind to me while I've been here.

[arkfall]

You remember I can sense your emotional state too, don't you?

Same as you can sense mine, if you try. Do I feel angry with this Tomoe woman?

[He's mostly apathetic towards her, with, perhaps, a tad bit of curiosity.]

[goldenglasses]

Even from here?! [Knives had always been better at what their abilities could do. Mostly due to Vash just never really wanting to flex his powers to learn what he could do.

After a brief hesitation he does fdu to reach out. To sense how his brother was feeling. He hopes the curiosity he feels is a good thing. It was hard to tell at the moment.] No. You don't.

And... [Another brief moment of hesitation.] And I'm really glad you don't. [Vash was a little worried that with her long black hair she might remind Knives of Rem. Even if to Vash the two look nothing alike.]

[arkfall]

Being connected, talking like this, makes it easier.

I met this woman on the bus after I arrived in the city. She received your text not to talk to me while I was speaking with her.

She told me about her death.

[goldenglasses]

She did? [Maybe it was knowing Tomoe was a dead human that helped?]

Well, I'm glad you don't hate her. Maybe I could bring her over to dinner now and then?

[arkfall]

Perhaps you could.

[The idea of eating with her makes his skin crawl, but he's trying to be better. He needs to be better for Vash.]

She was worried about you. She contacted me to ask if you were safe.

[goldenglasses]

I hope you told her that I'm safe because I am safe. I'm alright in here. [He's just bored and lonely.]

[arkfall]

I told her you told me you were safe.

[goldenglasses]

And I am. It's actually one of the nicer jails I've been in. It has air-conditioning! [That's not something most people boast about.]

[arkfall]

Air conditioning.

Alright. That is actually impressive.

[goldenglasses]

The best invention. Not that it's needed very much in winter.

[A beat.]

You know, our contract is coming up. We should probably make sure it's renewed again once I'm out to sign it.

[arkfall]

You would be willing to do that?

[He had assumed that now that Legato is here and Knives has a contract, Vash would be less willing to continue theirs.]

[goldenglasses]

Yeah. I would be alright with keeping it.

[Although... nothing asked nothing ever gained.]

But what about changing it just a teeeeny tiiiiiiny bit. Just to say I'm allowed to live on my own? [He tries to ask it in a casual way. Like it was no big deal at all.]

[arkfall]

[That suggestions spikes a dark, possessive desire in Knives. He liked having his brother in the same place as him. The idea that Vash wanted to move out made him feel like Vash was wanting to run away from him.]

Why?

[goldenglasses]

Well, Legato could have his own room then. Some space to call his own.

And I could still come over and visit. Have dinner and such. I would just have some other space to invite people over to or you know... spend the night a couple times a month?

[arkfall]

Oh yes. I'd imagine Bluesummers would take to that well. He wouldn't at all see no longer sharing my room as a punishment.

[goldenglasses]

[D-damn it.] He might? You know... bigger space? [Yeah, Vash doesn't sound like he believes what he's saying at all.]
