A soft laugh
"Yes it has been!"
Wolfwood will never know.
"I wanted to say congratulations to you first of all what with the little twins on the way.
Make sure vash keeps herself out of trouble"
He sighs and struggles to light his cig.
"I knew our freedom was too good to be true, nothing in this world is for free...
Say Luida do you think Vash would hate me if I decided to go back?"
"Could you come with me?"
He needed to learn to trust the people Vash and his siblings did, shaky hand reaches out for Luida.
"Sorry, I'm not used to people caring about me."
It was the truth.
"Seth, even if you just let them look at any wounds you have. You're safe here.
If you want you can have a sibling with you, would that make you feel safer?"
He tenses and gets up, trying to stop himself from panicking they mean well..
"No tests, I'm fine.. see I'm fine."
No more tests, he is trying so hard to appear fine.. he had to trust everyone but it was hard.
"vash will find a way to be around don't worry"
A small frown at the wince
"Don't you start saying that young man. What I want you to do after you've eaten is march straight to the med bay and get checked out. I don't know what the eye have been doing but I want to make sure +
"Of course, my family is the most important thing to me..."
A small smile.
"But Vash should be here with Nico, Vash makes Nico happy.. and he deserves happiness too."
He winces and clutches his side.
"I'm fine."
"quite a smart boy.
And what vash did or didn't do.
He did it /for/ Nicholas.
No one has to feel guilty about it. And I know he'd do It again in a heartbeat if he had to, because that's just who he is."
"It's nice, I'm thankful for whatever Vash did for us, but I know he did it at the cost of his own freedom.."
He flicks a veggie off the plate.
"Nico thinks we're all stupid but I know he misses Vash and Damien feels guilty for taking that away from Nico..."
A soft laugh
"Honestly wolfwood and vash are joined at the hip so all of us on ship three consider them married!
So yes, you're considered vash's family to me."
A soft sigh at the other question
"He...vash..
He went to knives. It's how you're all free"
"We are Vash's family?
Where is Vash by the way?
Seth was asking..
Don't have the heart to break it to him.."
A hand runs through his hair.
"I'm good at farming, everything else not so much.
Ah yeah me and Nico smoke
Bad habit to stop."
"well, you get to have the chance to be one big family now.
That's the charm of this place you see, it brings people closer
And vash, well, he's a big ball of trouble so he's probably out there getting chased as normal"
"But Vash isn't here..
I won't do anything without him
He promised we'd all be together.."
A soft sigh, and he is still eating the food.
"Having all my siblings in one place is weird... we never got to be together."
"you'll be able to do whatever you want from now on"
She's pushing a small plate of pastries over to him too
"Eat as much as you want, there's plenty available"
She's now sitting opposite, chin resting on a hand and watching
He is approaching @BotanyLu he seems anxious, avoiding eye contact.
He doesn't feel like he deserves a second chance.
"Damien said you wanted to see me?"
A shake of her head
"Nonsense. You're vash's family, that means you're ours too.
And if you're looking for something to do, if you're good with your hands Im sure brad can use another set helping around the ship.
But please don't force yourself to do anything. Let yourself +
"Not used to having this much freedom, and I don't think the others do either.. right now all we are doing is running you dry, you already got so many mouths to feed."
He feels guilty not earning his keep.
"Sorry, must be a lot for you guys as well."
Luida was busy doing her rounds for the day, busy checking her tablet when she heard damians voice, luida glanced up, a smile on her face
"You wolfwoods and smoking" a soft laugh, "there's an area outside the ship you can smoke and we do have a crew kitchen you can use to +
Restless, he was restless with nothing to do, him and his siblings were safe now right so why did it feel like he was going insane?
He got up and did the usual rounds, making sure everyone was okay, tucking Mel and Seth in before going for a walk.
He bumped into @BotanyLu
+
"He better not be with that stupid brother of his or so help me."
He was not going to calm down, he was going to get Vash back even if it mean't dying.
Looking over at Luida he nodded.
"Take care of them for me yeah?"
"wolfwood-
I'm not exactly sure myself"
Oh dear..this has vash written all over it
"Please take some time to calm down okay?
Your siblings are all here. And they're all safe"
He is rushing to @BotanyLu he is winded hands trying to grip the punisher, he was trying to look for a certain blonde only to be met with his siblings and Luida..
"What the fuck is going on?"
