Potatoes?

CHARACTERS: Vash & You
TIME: Today
LOCATION: Mess Hall
WARNINGS: Alcohol and being blackout drunk

[ There's a bit of a mess in the cafeteria, and the mess is named Vash Saverem. Slumped over the table like an oversized toddler, the engineer is clutching a pail like it's the most important item in the world.

Whatever is in it smells awful. Like straight up death and dumb ideas. Trying to grow potatoes from synthesized ones was one horrible mistake, and trying to ferment them into alcohol an even worse one. How he's even managed to drink himself stupid on it without throwing it up from the taste alone is impressive.

He just - he needed to get that image out of his brain by any means possible. His twin, filling the sky with blades, slicing through stone like it was butter. His laughter. So yeah, he might have been binge-drinking from a pail of cloudy death vodka.

...the only redeeming quality in this pathetic display is the P-HYMN-1.A on the table next to him, showing acceptable levels of methanol. He'll live, but he'll be wishing he didn't when the terrible moonshine has run its course. ]

Ah. Say no more. Never enough booze in the world to stop, but it helps... a little.

[He'd wait his turn, but as soon as he could take a swig he would. The thought of the Reapers, of London burning, it all came back to him in that moment, the memory that was lingering there that somehow he had seen things, seen wars that made their fights pale in comparison... but those had never happened.]

I ever find who did this to us, I'm giving them a present. Special delivery from me.

[He might have patted his gun.]

... It depends a lot on what they're responsible for. If they're respons'ble for fucking with me, I'd settle for a punch to the face. If th'stuff I saw? tha's a whole other thing. Might be doing folks a favor with what I saw.

But they're not here.

[He sounded less haunted, but the man had seen aliens attempting genocide. That was ... a lot to handle. If someone was responsible for that he wanted to put a bullet in them.]

Yeah... we definitely agree there. Nobody needs that shit.

[He blearily grabbed for some water and brought it over, setting it on the table with a thud.]

before you do that. Try small sips. Just small ones...
anesthetic_rage: (Time for a well-deserved rest.)

HAHAHAHAH

[It was a gruff, raucous sound that came out like a guttural growl when he laughed, but it was genuine enough at the very least. He also had the decency not to slap the engineer on the back. that would be counterintuitive right now wouldn't it?]

That's definitely a first for me. Most people are only grateful when they're behind me and I've got the gun, hehe.

Yeah... yeah, I know. But it's my most marketable skill. Plus, I'm good with stun rounds.

[He gave him a wink as he said it. He was definitely not above non-lethal responses. If anything, he kind of preferred them. Dead crewmen didn't help anything.]

Maybe I should pick up a hobby... sides drinking.
anesthetic_rage: (Let's do this the hard way.)

Ya'd be shocked how much ya can make it one. Folks just love goin t'bars. Hah, not really something we do these days though. Never was much of a bar goer. Those places are ...

[He paused and frowned before taking a swig. He was about to say "Bars are killing fields" and he knew it was right, but he had just enough sense not to say it right now. Only... how did he remember that? Weird.]

Have to take ya t'the range. get practice with stun rounds.

...

[Ok, that was officially a fucked up memory to have gotten. It was inherently just... bad. A different kind of bad from hoards of monsters and robots. It was personal.]

Sorry bout that. Mebbe... stun gun. Something that feels different. Just for stopping someone doing somethin stupid.

Don't want to give you a flashback
anesthetic_rage: (Got anything smart to say?)

[personal profile] anesthetic_rage 2025-04-21 02:02 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, s'pose that's true. No real flash if y'can already see it in your head.

[He waasn't half as blitzed. He'd come to this party late, but he'd be feeling it tomorrow. Still, he'd picked up something about that other person being terrifying.]

You got a hell of a whammy with those visions didn't ya?
anesthetic_rage: (I love my work.)

[personal profile] anesthetic_rage 2025-04-25 04:28 am (UTC)(link)
You'n me both. Not sure what's worse. The vi... nah, it's the visions.

[He reached over and patted him perhaps a bit too roughly on the shoulder with what looked like an attempt at a sympathetic look. he was pretty terrible at this.]

We should get ya R&R. Drinking's never enough.
