[...ugh. Fine, Gnosis will crack a smile too, but only because Vash is his friend and also Angelina bowling him over is admittedly hilarious.]
Admittedly, I was taking her out for another "prank", but I felt the least bit bad when I thought about the potential for your home to be covered in mud, so she's getting a bath instead.
[Surprise! Your dog is clean. Not that Gnosis' pranks have been unhelpful so far, he's slipped books and stuff in there... not very good at actual mean pranks, this one.]
[His response takes a moment, as he's quite distracted with Angelina. She continues to pound her forelegs into his chest, as if administering CPR. Each blow sends him further into the mud, and sends another bout of laughter into the air.
Eventually, though, he does wrestle the dog off him, and she promptly runs off to find a stick. Or something else. Hard to say.]
Aren't you a big softie! [He says it with a toothy grin, and a tone that's teasing over anything else. All told, one could believe that he was continuing to fool around. Unfortunately for Gnosis, though, Vash really does think that. Oops.]
I'm sure Liv and Nick will appreciate it. Don't want them gettin' caught in the crossfire!
[He loves them both enough to not subject them to his pranks. Or rather, these pranks. They get pranks of their own.
Perhaps, [he says to that first comment, noncommittal, even though he's leaning down to yoink Vash out of the mud as they speak.] You've at least been mildly entertaining all week. It's been good to get out of the lab, I suppose.
[Considering he glued Wolfwood back together and then immediately had to go make another prosthetic... but those are "right now" excuses. He has no remaining excuses for the rest of the time he normally spends holed up in there.]
Sometimes we need a little joy. And I know I needed the distraction.
[He's already going through the first stages of change, even if he hasn't quite let himself acknowledge it. The pranks have been a pleasant distraction from reality.]
It's good to see you out of the lab. Not that I don't appreciate all you did. Nick's already starting to move around better because of you.
...that's good. Glad to hear it. He doesn't strike me as the sort of man to sit down in a wheelchair for the rest of his life when he could be on the front lines, that's all.
[No, you stupid bird, you care about the Triguns be niceys to them.]
It did help to have your arm to study. I'm only sorry that it took me so long to perfect that. Hopefully you managed fine over the month without it.
