We are the named and we are known

[lucetimods]

Who: All Draftees
What: Arriving at the dorms
When: 26th
Where: Dorms, location unknown
Summary: Dorm information is here. This is your room!
Rating: PG... we hope?

Your characters are shuffling off to their rooms. Each room has their name beside it and only they can open the door. People can only enter their room if they're allowed in (or they leave the door open). Characters will find any requested items in their room already. If they have a requested vehicle, there will be another door in their room that will take them to the hangar to inspect their equipment.

((Mod note: Extra draftees won't experience their Shift Incompatibility handicap in their dorms. :|a))

[Oh, you can guess, Vash. You might be wrong. Today she's just checking on the people she cares about. You still count, you know. Still, she raises an eye at that.]

Should I come back some other time, then?

[goldenglasses]

No, [He tries to put on a smile to keep from looking so tired and depressed. What started as a day of finding his friends safe so far, which was great, has mostly been a day full of bad memories, frightened friends, and many lectures. That smile is a weak one.] This can wait a bit. Come on in.

[mikangirl.livejournal.com]

[And here she comes, footsteps heavy.] I was checking in with people. You know, the usual kind of thing.

[goldenglasses]

[Vash makes a motion to say that she's welcome to sit down in the spare chair if she wants.] Yeah, I was doing that earlier, so far everyone seems to have at least gotten here alright.

[mikangirl.livejournal.com]

Yeah. Maybe their 'minimum risk' was just that, but I guess we'll see what happens tomorrow.

[goldenglasses]

I hope so.

And what about you? Are you ready for the fighting?

[mikangirl.livejournal.com]

Ready as I ever am. [She'll take it as it comes, and the less of it the better. And she rather suspects Vash of leading her to this question. Gently:] Are you?

[goldenglasses]

[Not so much leading as it seems to be the question to ask when going to war.] I think so.

[mikangirl.livejournal.com]

[Also true.

She knows how Vash will act out here. And...here, oddly, she doesn't hold it against him. Just like she wouldn't expect Sayo to go out on the field and fight for the Malnosso, she hardly expects him to ignore his beliefs for something so ...impersonal.

Doesn't mean she won't get angry if she has to witness everyone trying to cover for his pacifism, but she leaves that alone. Instead:]

You'll be on the defensive team, right?

[goldenglasses]

Yeah, there are a lot of people who can't fight coming this time. I want to make sure they're safe. [And he knows going out to the front lines would only cause trouble for people and a lot of nightmares for him.]

[mikangirl.livejournal.com]

There's also all the last minute draftees who'll be staying there, too, at least at first. Until we know they're going to be okay.

[goldenglasses]

I'm still holding onto the hope that they won't really need me.

[mikangirl.livejournal.com]

I can understand that.

...you could always offer yourself in the medical tent or something. Or maybe offer yourself as bodyguard to one of the doctors out in the field.

[goldenglasses]

Maybe I could. [Only he knows he wouldn't be able to sit still. Knowing he could be out stopping Third Party members; instead of waiting for everyone else to kill them.]

[mikangirl.livejournal.com]

[...well, she tried. And she thanks Vash for not pretending to jump at the chance.]

Just trying to offer alternatives.

You fighting with Wolfwood?

...how do you keep managing to tag me each time the boss lady steps out?

[goldenglasses]

Maybe not the whole time... but we're pretty good at finding each other when we need help. [Well... except that last time at home. :(]

Genius.

[mikangirl.livejournal.com]

[Yeah, sucks to be part of your cast. Try a shounen cast next time.]

That's good. [She thinks having your best friend from home who understands how you work might stop you going completely nuts out there.] If you want a way of dealing with them without killing, I can help out. Just let me know. I'm sticking to defensive, generally.

[And she gets up to go.]

*Peers at the tag's time* Work hate you too?

[goldenglasses]

[Vash is quiet a moment, as if he had to play that last comment over in his head once or twice, then smiles.]

Thanks, Nami.

Yes. D| Waiting up until help desk opens.

[mikangirl.livejournal.com]

[Have a grin. Then she's gone.]
