trying to be manly and act like he's not upset. Vash mentioning the reason for him being upset isn't helping.
that Will sucks at hiding his feelings. It's written all over his face. :C He wonders what's wrong, though.
tries grinning, 'Nothing's wrong mate~'
shakes his head, not believing it. "No, you tell me what's wrong."
crosses his arms, 'It's just... he left me alright?' He looks off to the side. ((I don't blame Canuck, I still talk to her etc /disclaimer))
((But you have to leave when you have to leave ^^; ))
frowns, concern evident in his eyes. He furrows his eyebrows, lips pursed. "...Canada?" :C [Why did she have to leave anyway? ;;]
(( Uni is starting for her next week? :c ))
scowls, 'No effing Santa Claus.' He probably didn't mean to snap ;;
frowns again, this time for a different reason. He crosses his arms, "Well, *sorry*" [Aww :C :C :C]
(( You should probably ask her though /doesn't want to speak out of place ))
looks off to the side, rubbing a temple with his hand. 'It's fine mate... Canada did leave.' He's still touchy about it, 'Do we have to talk
[Yeah I should, once I get iChat to work OTL]
(( Yeah ;o; I hope it works!))
places a hand on his shoulder warily, not exactly the best at showing concern. He sighs inwardly. "No, we don't if you don't want to."
smiles slightly at the hand on his shoulder, 'I don't really.' He's trying to forget it ;;
a small half-smile and nods. "Then we won't talk about it."
pokes his side, 'How have you been?'
tilts his head, shrugging. "I've been alright. Nothing much." He pauses and continues. "...You?"
sighs slightly, 'Better...' He grins, 'What have you been up to?'
scratches his cheek awkwardly, "Well actually I feel like I lost a day of my life..." Which was because he went chibi.
blinks... 'I bet you were little again...' He skips a beat before teasing, 'You make a cute kid mate.;
's nose twitches, "Am not. My younger selves are stupid." He hums, "You make an interesting little person."
rolls his eyes, 'Depends what age I am... I went through a rather... interesting phase.' He pokes his nose, 'That's why your younger selves_
only seen him as a little child, if his plurker recalls correctly. "Ah, a little kid. You brought a snake into my house." His nose twitches-
pokes his nose again, 'Yeah... I heard about that mate... what was it's name?'
squints, trying to remember. "Tom and Wod, I think." He swats his hand away, "You have to be the worst name giver ever."
pokes his chest, 'The second one was Rod... I had a problem with my rrrrr's,' He rolls the r's, smiling, 'Bruce has a great name!'
rolls his eyes and swats Will's hand away again then gives a golf clap. "Australia; best at rolling r's," he mutters teasingly. "Hm, no he-
pouts, 'Bruce has the best name ever Vashiwashi.' He takes in the claps though, mocking Vash by pruning himself.
shakes his head, "No, I don't think so Willikinns." He doesn't like Bruce itself so.
would be upset to hear that he doesn't like Bruce D:
'He has the best name mate.'
snorts and just nods. "Sure he does." Which is why he didn't say it out loud~
nods, flicking some of his hair. 'Admit that I have the best naming abilities~'
shakes his head, "I may admit to liking your hugs, but you suck at naming."
grins~ Vash likes his hugs. He pouts, 'But I gave you the nickname Vashikins... don't you like that?'
twitches, "I like that name as much as you like being called Williepoo."
twitches, bristling. 'I hate the name Williepoo.'
waves a finger, nodding smugly, "Exactly."
grabs his finger, 'Will.'
((Orz, Will why so fail xD? ))
meets his eyes, grinning, "Willie the pooh?"
[Will so faildorable lmao]
takes a while to get that... since he's not 7 :T. He lets go, 'Then you're Vashore'
shakes his head, clearly amused. And Will calls himself smart. 8D "Better than Vashikinns."
[I'm freaking loving this ok ;u; lol ilu bro]
a better University than Vash. 'I like Vashikins... it's my name for you~' He grins, pinching Vashikin's cheeks, ''Cause you're just that_
important to me, eh?' (( Ilu more~ ;o; I don't know what you're loving though ))
purses his lips as *another* blush starts up. Goddammit, why does this always happen? He swats his hand away. He doesn't know how to say-
that he's touched. He would never admit to that, actually. [XD I love their convo lmao]
(( They're just so silly~ ))
squeezes his cheeks one last time before letting go, a smug smile on his face. 'You look like a strawberry today~'
scrunches his face up in disapproval. The blush was still not dying down, though. "N-No I don't!"
presses a thumb inbetween Vash's eyebrows to ease the crease, 'You really do mate... maybe I should call you Strawberry Shortcake. Shorty_
for short.' Yes, he's pushing.
would rather be called a tomato, darn it. ;o; He flicks Will's thumb and shakes his head, "No, no, i'm not short." :T
looks down with a raised eyebrow.
scowls and flicks his forehead.
surprised he can reach there
surprised he can see past those eyebrows~ 8D
surprised Vash doesn't have frown lines yet 8D He picks up Vash, smirking.
surprised that Willie hasn't gotten any shorter from carrying him all the time. He flails.
... wonders how that would make him Shorter. He throws Vash over his shoulder, 'So... what kind of adventure should we go on today Vashore?'
... meh. He tries to get out of Will's grip, even if that means falling on the ground. He grits his teeth. "I don't know!"
tightens his hold, 'Well... um.' He doesn't know either but the wriggling loosens his hold.
hums, making hand movements that Will can't see. "An adventure to candy mountain," He replies sarcastically.
they aren't rude. He puts the other down, bored now that he isn't reacting. 'Candy Mountain Charlie~'
assures that no rude gestures were done. He brushes his shoulders a bit before looking at the sky. It was a rather warm midday. "Want to-
why the other is brushing his own shoulders, silly man. He nods though, 'Yeah...' That would help to take his mind off of things,'At yours?'
stops looking at the sky and nods, humming. "Yeah," He says, tapping his chin. "Unless you want other wise, I guess."
shakes his head, 'That's fine... the weather's a tad cold in Australia at the moment...' He looks up at the sky, 'Should be clearing up soon
crosses his arms and nods, "My place it is then. Maybe we can go swimming in
ice."
.... would make a face about how cold it could be if it didn't sound so interesting. He crosses his arms, copying Vash, 'Really?'
an amused half-smile. "Yeah really." Sure, it's cold, but it's also really pretty. CB
an amused, half smile. 'That sounds .... cold, but amazing.' It's hard to stop bouncing about in excitement but he's dedicated to mimicking_
still doesn't notice that Will is imitating his actions. Hmm. "It *is* amazing." He blinks at the other's bounciness.
excited~ He blinks back, 'So when are we going?'
realizes it now. He grunts, "Stop copying me," He says before grabbing the other's hand and starts dragging him somewhere, "Now, actually."
smiles, 'Did you know that imitation is the greatest form of flattery?' He allows himself to be dragged along.
snorts and rolls his eyes, "Yeah, right." He drags him until they reach the lake. ...Then he realizes they didn't bring equipment. Time to-
renting would work... since all he has is the clothes on his back, and a wallet. 'You sound annoyed mate...?'
only that too. Oh well. He sighs inwardly. "I like to work with my own equipment?"
meaning more the 'Yeah, right.' But this works, 'I know what you mean. It's good to know where your equipment has been and if it works.' He_
saunters off to the renting place, 'But nothing wrong with living on the risky end of life every now and again.'
hums, shrugging as he follows along. "That's true," He mutters as they enter the shop. He walks up to the counter to rent two sets~
going to pay for his own. Way to dent his manly pride. He hovers, looking out at the lake... 'There's ice in there?'
paid for both of them~ How's that for manly! 8D He snorts, "No shit sherlock."
scowls, 'Well my dear Mr Watson, why don't we get in there and investigate?'
nods, "That's what we're going to do," He answers as he hands Will's equipment to him.
gets to putting it on right there and then. Surfing has ruined his sense of modesty it seems. 'Thanks mate....'
blinks and shrugs. If that's what the guy wants to do, then whatever. He nods once, "I'll change in the locker room..."
it's fine, other people are doing it too... he thinks. Well whatever, 'Okay mate, see you out there.' He's going to check his equipment in_
nods again, already heading to the locker room. "Meet me there in around ten minutes." He then proceeds to change.
distracted by an animal and arrives 15 minutes later... ^_^'
starting to get impatient, so he glares when Will arrives. "About time."
rubs the back of his neck bashfully, 'I was just talking to this little critter...'
sighs, grinning a bit. "Why am I know surprised?" He gestures for the other to follow. "Let's get going?"
nods, following him along. Get ready for extreme whining about how cold it is. 'Yeah... the sooner we start the better.'
braces himself, then. He smirks as they reach the lake and crosses his arms. "Care to do the honors?"
looks wary. He steps in though on to jump straight out with a sound of discomfort. 'It's cold.'
blinks and stares, incredulous. He face-palms. "What did you think? There's *ice* down there."
makes a face. He's a hot country, he doesn't do well in the cold. What does Vash expect? 'It's the summer though...'
thought he had winters. Well, he couldn't blame the guy. It *was* cold there. "Yes, but it's still cold. Want me to go first?"
nods, looking a bit put off. And he has winters... but his tourist company compares them to European Summers... so... :3
those are really warm winters, then. He goes into the lake slowly and nods his head a little.
watches before gingerly following, 'You look like a bobblehead doll.'
grins and takes Will's hand lightly, "How do you like the water, miss~?" He teases.
blushes bright red in embarrassment. 'I-I'm fine!' It's really cold for him though ;o;
hums smugly, still not letting go of his hand. "Are you sure, though?" He asks before dragging him downwards.
half way through replying with an affirmative when he lands in the water with a shout. He immediately scrambles to get back up, teeth_
chattering and eyebrows furrowed.
follows him up, laughing. "I don't think you're fine," He says, smirking at the other.
scowls, 'I-I-I am!' Or he will be when he gets used to the water.
Vash
wonders 14 years ago
when that will be, then. He lets go oh his hand, "No, you're not."
swims a bit back and dips his head in to try and get used to it some more. He pops up, looking a little more... relaxed. 'I am mate.' Only a
smiles a bit and nods, "Then let's go?" He says briefly, before diving under water without warning.
hesitates before following. He sees the block of ice and stops in awe... that's pretty amazing...if only his camera worked underwater.
he could have brought an underwater camera or something. He stops swimming to look if Will's following him. He's already far ahead.
tries to catch up, not wanting to hold him back. His eyes are stuck on the ice formation.
grins at how distracted the other is. He waves for him to catch up, also observing the ice.
catches up, floating beside the other as he peers up at the ice... it looked huge
starts swimming again once Will is beside him. And yes, they *are* huge. Also maze-like. Anyone up for a race?
up for a race, he was born for racing. Rushing to catch up with him, he tries to think of how they can race... maybe one to see who's the_
that's a good idea. He nods once to initiate the race then starts swimming fast. Be wary of the ice.
slips inbetween cracks in the ice, pausing as he looks around him in awe... it was like the Ice Queen's Castle. He swims around, careful of_
the ice like Vash said to be.
swims around the ice and curves, staring at his reflection a few times. It looked like a fun house or something.
hasn't looked at himself in the ice... He catches a glance though, smiling when he sees himself stretched out. This was amusing.... but now_
he needed to find a way out.
turns right at a fork, separating himself from the other. Oh, now to find an exit... Ah! He swims fast, towards something that might be
swims the other way, only to find another fork... and then yet another. He can't see anything close to an exit o.o
unfortunately swims into what seems like a dead end. Sighing inwardly, he swims back out and decides to go back to the fork. Left turn!
by now at a dead end, turning around to see Vash. He hides behind a corner, willing the other to turn the other way. He's going to escape_
didn't see him yet, luckily for Will. He goes the way the other went a while ago, dead set on finding the exit. Hey! Isn't that cheating? :T
they said the first one out... it might be cheating though. He passes the whole... hesitating before going off in another direction to find_
runs into yet another dead end. Fabulous. He swims back as fast as he can to find the real way out. He spots Will and wonders where he's-
going. He follows discreetly.
swims past the original exit, staying as close to the outer wall as possible. He eventually does find an exit, turning round to find Vash.._
He didn't have the heart to leave him stuck down here.
swims up to him, before Will goes to find him. He takes his hand and starts swimming to the exit.
starts when the other takes it, afraid a monster of some sorts has come to take him. He stares at the other as they swim along, heading for_
the surface when they get out of the exit. Vash can let go of his hand now~
(( Sorry missed the first bus and BLAH, Sunday services ))
lets go of his hand, amused even though technically, he lost. What's Will going to ask for now, he wonders. [It's mmk bb~ /pets]
surfaces, tugging off his mask when he gets there. He floats on the surface, 'I won~' he chimes, grinning.
takes his mask off as well, panting a bit. He chuckles, "Yeah you did."
smirks, shaking his hair dry. 'Meaning I get something, right?'
waves a hand, "Yes, yes you do. Name what you want."
, wading in the water. 'A foot rub~'
makes a face, "Why would you want that?"
grins, 'Because it'll piss you off?' He smirks, looking self satisfied.
pokes his forehead in slight vexation. =n= "...Seriously though?" He hopes that wasn't his real answer.
to think of something else now... le sigh. 'Well what can I ask for, oh high and mighty one?'
shrugs, smirking a bit. "You definitely aren't going to ask for chocolate." Because he can get it anytime and yadda yadda yadda.
nods, 'That I can~' He thinks, 'How about a back rub?'
makes another face. "I'll just stick with the foot rub, thank you."
rolls his eyes, 'Then a chocolate cake.'
grins. That isn't as bad as the other too. "Done and done. Do you have a deadline, oh high and mighty one?" He teases, copying him.
laughs, puffing up his chest. 'I'd like it by the end of the week~'
nods, putting that in his mental checklist. "Alright, then." He pauses, then, "How did you find the ice?
smiles, 'It was amazing. I've never seen anything like that in my life...'
smiles smugly, crossing his arms. "See, once you get over the *cold*, it's pretty cool." No pun intended.
laughs none the less. 'It's just worth the cold mate.' He really doesn't enjoy being freezing e_e
pats him on the back. One wet pat. "Hmm, it sure is." He says proudly. CB
eyebrows furrow before he starts making his way to shore. 'It's not as amazing as the Great Barrier Reef' he calls back.
waves a hand, staring at the ice down below before heading to shore as well. He waves a hand, "I still need to go there."
blinks before he nods, 'That you do mate, we'll have to do that after laser tag.'
smiles a bit, "There should be a list of things we need to do, then..."
blinks before smiling, 'But there's only two things.'
shrugs, "We could always plan more," He says, smiling a bit.
watches the other for a moment, pausing in the water. 'I guess we could,' he says before swimming and then reaching the shore. He's not_
going to climb out in case it's cold. Vash can go first :T
climbs out first. Silly Will, it's not that cold. ...Alright, maybe it is. But he isn't going to say that to him. "Come on out."
stares at him, 'It's cold isn't it?'
shakes his head, poker face on. "Nope, not at all." He waves his arms for effect.
nods slowly, walking out slowly. He shivers when he's finally out, 'You effing lied!'
grins, shrugging. "Maybe I did!"
falls back in. He shivers in the water, "What was that for!"
smirks, 'For lying.' He's shivering too though. 'Why is it so cold here... isn't it summer?'
climbs out of the water and sputters a bit. He nods, "It is. It's just cold here, I guess."
snorts, rubbing his arms. 'You okay?'
nods again, "Yeah, I am. Are you...?" He smirks, "It being cold and your shivering."
starts walking back to the rental place, 'Y-yeah.' He's not going to give Vash more to tease him about.
follows along, mood light. Teasing Will is fun. "It's not that cold in the Great Barrier Reef, I'm guessing."
keeps walking, 'I normally go in the summer when it's warm.' He pretty much gives up surfing in the winter, he's a baby when it comes to the
cold unless he's properly bundled up.
hasn't gone surfing either, if he recalls correctly. "And I suppose the only thing you like doing in the winter is snowboarding."
shakes his head, 'I go swimming at the local pool and play cricket abroad when I get the chance. There's also the Tri-nations against Africa
and New Zealand.' He's really into his sports.
nods in understanding, tapping his chin. "Sporty I see." They reach the rental shop, where he goes to remove the equipment and all that.
sports! He uses the changing room this time quickly changing. He finds an heater, and practically sits on it as he waits for Vash.
really cleaned himself up. Sanitariness for the win. He stares. "What are you doing..?"
... 'What does it look like mate? I'm humping a heater~' And he's clean!
blanches, "And you're doing this why..?" He thinks it's not that cold anymore.
joking... 'I like that you think so highly of me mate.'
