The Infection Begins...

[misterbrief]

Who: Bebi Vegeta and everyone who wanted to be involved with the Bebi Plot
What: Tuffle Infection Plot!
When: May 6th- May 12th
Where: Everywhere in Luceti
Summary: Bebi has infected some of the residents, who have infected other residents, who have infected...you get the idea.
Rating: R at the worst, if it's higher take it to somewhere else.

There's no sign-ups, so join in if you'd like!


It wasn't until the day of the sixth that Vegeta finally had been able to get out of bed after a few days of a high fever, and his agenda today included making visits around town, to see a few people he knew. A monumental day for him, or rather, the parasite controlling him.

To everyone else, the week started as normal. But as the days go on, more and more fall to infection. People go missing, for a day at most, but they come back. And they too, are sick, but not for long. Some make their way to go work on something important, but no one knows what. But there is something amiss, and only the residents can save themselves from coming under control of this parasite.

It hasn't been going. I still haven't decided if I've time to waste for that.

[Okay, there's got to be another way to get to Vash. He glances around the bar, looking for an idea. Maybe if he can get Vash to walk away from his glass? A distraction, that would be nice...]

[goldenglasses]

[Unfortunately a bar being what it was doesn't have too much in it. A few tables, a bar, and at the moment the place is mostly empty. Of course, the bartender does seem to be busy and if Vegeta wanted a specific bottle that Vash would be forced to get up and not lean over the bar to get. That might distract him a bit.]

I suppose for a guy who can shoot energy and fly already there's not a whole lot the spirits can teach you, is there? [Not that Vash is trying to call the spirits here weak. They've actually been very useful to him. It's more he doesn't think Vegeta probably needs more tricks up his sleeve than the man probably already has.]

[misterbrief]

That's what I first thought. [He gets an idea. He leans over the bar and grabs a bottle himself. If Vash does it, Bebi can do it too. He doesn't care about the bartender anyway...]

But, I've changed my mind a little about things.

[goldenglasses]

Yeah? Going to try to talk to Nala then? She's probably the easiest to get a hold of too. Although you'll probably have to smile and not be so grumpy all the time to get her to warm up to you! HAHAHAHAHA!

[misterbrief]

[He just glances back at Vash, and smiles.]

I was thinking about that one. I'm sure she and I won't have any problems.

[He takes a huge swig right out of the bottle he's taken, but uses that exact moment to plant something inside it with his mouth. Slamming it down on the bar, he slides it over to Vash, offering it to him.]

[goldenglasses]

[Vash grins.] Skipping the glass? Alright! Two can play this game! [Only instead of taking the offered bottle, Vash leans over the counter again. Grabbing a half full bottle of Wild Turkey for himself.] Sorry, but I don't second kiss men. Now... if you were a beautiful and sexy lady on the other hand.

[He sighs. Dreamily. Apparently picturing that his company was someone other than Vegeta. One in a very skimpy dress.]

[misterbrief]

[That makes Bebi turn his mouth up. Second kiss men? ....what...?]

How lewd! I don't want to hear about your sexual fantasies!

[goldenglasses]

[Vash just gives a one shoulder shrug and takes a long swig from his own bottle. Debating if he could manage to get Vegeta passed out drunk or not. He knew of ways to cheat at cards, but Vegeta had a sharp mind and the outlaw knows he won't be as easy to trick as some drunks in a bar back home would be.]

So, what brings you into Good Spirits? Just thirsty or trying to forget something?

[misterbrief]

I've just been busy. I thought this would serve for a nice little break.

[Busy infecting people! And what a lie, he wouldn't go on break until he got everyone.]

[goldenglasses]

Yeah? With the training? [Vash grins over the lip of his bottle. A mischievous one that looks like he's possibly about to make a joke.] I suppose this is where I should apologize for missing out on so many classes.

[misterbrief]

You should. I don't see a single cut or bruise on you that would suggest you've been doing anything at all. I could change that.

[That would also give him another way at Vash.]

[goldenglasses]

Hm, naw. Actually I've been trying to think of a way to tell you I want to quit. [Seeing how he doesn't actually take any lessons from Vegeta.] It's just really not my style. I really am more of a love and peace kind of guy after all!

[misterbrief]

...I know. People like you would do well to...spread a little peace around here. No one gets along here, now do they...

[He takes another sip from his bottle. It's infuriating that he hasn't managed to get Vash yet.]

[goldenglasses]

[Now that wasn't at all like the Vegeta he knew. He sets his bottle down.] I dunno, I thought we weren't doing too bad. Er, well, at least until recently. Do you have any suggestions?

[misterbrief]

A few. But I don't think anyone would willingly let themselves help out. It's a tad unorthodox, you could say.

[goldenglasses]

Yeah? What is it? As a hunter of peace it's my duty to find better ways to spread it's message!

Is it hugging people? Because some people I've found out are a bit sensitive to being touched. Especially women. [Really odd that.]

[misterbrief]

I suppose you could do it that way if you wished. But, I know you...if I told you you would just get all cross with me. Best if I just kept it to myself.

[goldenglasses]

Awww! No I won't! I even cross my heart and hope to never eat another doughnut or drink another drop of alcohol! [He even crosses his hand over his heart as he says it.] We're friends, aren't we? You know you should be able to tell me of all people!

[misterbrief]

Don't lie to me, I know that alcohol is a crutch for you. [Sort of, he knows Vash loves it.] We are friends. But that's why I'll just let my own secrets stay just the way they are- secrets. I wouldn't want to lose a friend.

[goldenglasses]

Exactly! It's how you know that I'm being the most serious that I can about keeping a secret! And if you're spreading love and peace trust me, there is no way you'd lose me as a friend! [Not that Vash thinks that's what this Vegeta imposter is doing at all.]

[misterbrief]

Let me tell you this, friend- [He takes another swig-] if everyone simply did what I'd want, there would be no fighting, everyone would work together as a whole, and no being in the universe would ever want to cause us trouble.

I could show you, if you're really that interested. But don't say I didn't warn you.

[goldenglasses]

Hm, I suppose you do sort of have a point there my friend! [Vash laughs. As if Vegeta had been joking.] Although I can't say I can really see how something like that would work! [He grins and takes a drink. Clearly thinking now that Vegeta was just being ironic.] But I'll bite. How would you do it?

[Although he looks utterly relaxed at the moment. Vash is on high alert. Knowing he probably just invited a whole lot of trouble onto himself, but also curious just how this could all work. The more he knew the easier to stop it.]

[misterbrief]

I'd prefer to take that outside if you really would like to know.

[He's had enough, he's going to hold Vash down and force feed him DNA if he had to at this point.]

So why don't you join me out there and I'll give you a quick demonstration.

[goldenglasses]

[Vash lets out a disappointed whine.] Is this another fighting thing? Because I'm kinda enjoying this drink and I'm kinda a bit too buzzed to be even mock fighting right now. It also sounds a lot of work too.

[misterbrief]

There's only fighting if you choose for that to happen. There's no reason at all for a fight. And I don't think you'll want to try that with me.

[Though it would be very entertaining if Vash tried to resist, for Bebi.]
