[When the voices suddenly come on, the entire screen's black--prooobably because someone's ass is crushing the journal. Maybe Wolfwood's. Of course, he's too busy not noticing because-]

Iiii don't think that's right, needle noggin.

What? That's what the instructions say! You're just being stubborn because you got it all wrong...!

[there's the sound of waving paper] Ha, very funny, you being right.

I am right!

It's upside down, you idiot.... Why did I ask for your help again?

[...mumble mumble] There're so many steps...

[grumble grumble] It's a demon crib; it just won't let us build it. She's going to have a baby and we'll be stuck in the front mashing crib legs together--and could you get those damn cats outta' here! They're distracting!

Aww, what? They're just hungry! Maybe if someone fed them like a decent preacherman.

That's not my job! I don't want cats--!

[... Are you two married or something. Milly would wonde--CRACK]
....

Spikey.

... A-aha. Yeah?

Did you break it.
....

WOLFWOOD NOOOOOO [CRACK

Oh look, you can see the two of them now! Wolfwood is very sweetly bending Vash's leg at an impossible angle in the middle of a sadly wilted crib that VASH RUINED GODDAMMIT]

ERUGHGH!! I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY--

DO YOU KNOW HOW HARD IT IS TO FIND A CRIB IN THIS PLACE?!

UNCLE! UNCLEEEEEE!!! MY LEG'S BREAKING, AAAAA--

A LEG FOR A LEG!!

THAT'S SORT OF HARSH--EIEIEIEIEI!!

[[ooc: ... dual-post. enjoy two idiots.]]

You know what. I'm not even going to touch it anymore? [He sets the leg down.] How about that? You can put your OWN crib together, by YOURSELF.

Thank you, Vash.

[See? she at least can be a little polite to the poor broomhead. But once Wolfwood speaks, Miyabi just smirks and sets her sword back into the holster at her hip.]

Oh, I can do a lot of things with a brush. I think you'd be surprised, Mr. Wolfwood.

...

Like what other things? [He rubs his chin, thoughtful.] Since Vash has so heartlessly abandoned me after letting someone else fix his mistakes, might as well learn more about your cool powers, right?

I didn't abandon! I was bullied and it's obvious my help isn't wanted!

Mister Wolfwood, you should gladly accept and appreciate any help offered to you, even if it's not from the one who did you wrong. [Words of wisdom, and then--] Besides, would you really want Vash to fix something as important as this? I don't think you'd end up with a crib if that happened...

[She shoots Vash a quick, playful grin then moves the conversation elsewhere, to her brush skills.] Well, the things I can do aren't...exactly my powers. They're those of the gods from my homeland, but my people can use them because we train to serve those gods and keep them known and loved by the people. There are a lot of different powers, but essentially they control the very fabric of existence itself.

Wind, water, earth, fire...I can control them once I learn the right skills. Rejuvenation - the one I used just a while ago - can repair or replace broken and lost things, I can make plants grow and revive dead ones with Bloom...and I can slow down time for a little bit as well. That's Veil of Mist.

Oh, I knew better than to ask him; I'm just bugging him for no good reason.

[He's pretty impressed with that list, though.]

So you can do what the malnosso do with the houses around here? Fix them like nothing ever happened, I mean. Seems like some pretty handy abilities you got there, even by Luceti's filial standards.

Yeah, very handy if it keeps my leg from being used as a crib replacement. [Yeah, he's still sour about that.]

That's not very nice... [Maybe she'll make lunch for poor Vash later. He really did seem sorry, and Wolfwood was being pretty mean to him. It's not his fault he's so clumsy.]

Mm...yes, kind of. But unlike the Malnosso, I get really, really worn out if I use my skills too much. The stronger ones especially. Rejuvenation itself is very...tiring. But I've mastered it pretty well, so fixing little things like this is no trouble at all. Just, actually fixing a house would be pretty hard, I think.

[Even if she has done it before, when Ammy was still around to help her. The earthquake a few years ago really made Miyabi learn, and learn fast.]

Still... it's pretty damn cool. It's not often people have the ability to fix things, instead of breaking 'em. [He's admiring the handiwork as we speak, man] Things break in this crazy house all the time; if I pay you somehow, you think you'd be for fixing those?

-and they're not ALL my fault. [He felt it important to add that bit in there.]

[Oh, goodness. Miyabi laughs quietly, and holds up a hand.]

You don't have to pay me anything! If you really need something fixed, I'll do it whenever I can, it's good practice. I haven't gotten a real chance to in a long time.

Oh, but if you have to give me something, just promise you'll be careful from here on. If you keep breaking the things I fix, I won't help you fix them anymore.

I can promise! You can, too, right Vash?

[less breaking stuff, riiiight?]

Yeah, yeah. I can promise too. And more than you can.

All right, good. If anything else breaks though, just let me know and I can come over to fix it. [She approaches the crib again, and inspects it curiously. It looks a bit like what she thinks it is, but...still different. If it is what Miyabi thinks it is, then--]

...Is someone having a baby?! [8DD]

Well, of course! Me and my wife are expecting a little kiddo soon.

[silly miyabi, you JUST now notice. tsk tsk]

Hence why he got over angry at such a little detail as a broken crib leg. Expecting parents tend to be over dramatic.

[Hey, she's never seen a crib like that before, okay? Her people use hollowed out acorn or walnut shells for their cribs. BUT OMIGODS, BABY. They're going to have a baby! A little, tiny, adorable baby!

]

Aaah, congratulations to you both! You must be so excited! Is she expecting soon? Can I see the baby when it arrives?! Oh, you have to show everyone!

Vash! [ROUNDING ON YOU NOW. WITH A WAGGLING LITTLE FINGER.] Don't talk like that! Of course Mister Wolfwood would be angry, that's where his baby's going to sleep! You'd be angry too, if someone broke the place you had set aside to make your newborn baby the most comfortable!

Besides, you're clumsy. [Huff.]

Yeah, Vash. Don't insult my parental instincts!

[now where was i]

She'll be expecting sometime around the middle of May, if the estimation're right. You can definitely come and visit with the kiddo.

[Vash huffs, putting his hands on his hips and turning his face away from the pair as he mumbles to himself.]

Hmph! I'm not that clumsy. Everyone makes a mistake now and then.

Yes, but you make much more than a mistake. [Miyabi grins at Vash, enjoying the playful teasing, before turning back to Wolfwood with a wider grin.]

I'd love to, thank you very much! But only when you're all ready. I'd hate to be a bother with the stress of everything.

Are you kidding? You, a bother? Considering my neighbors are the straw hats and the state of my house most of the time, you're a welcomed sight. I've been learning how to balance stress levels around here.

[by beating up vash, duh]

You know you're welcome here anytime Miyabi! My room could actually use another painting actually!
