Welcome to July Starter
RP Prompt:
Set during Trigun Stampede-ish during the time where Knives is going around stealing plants from towns to bring back to the city of July. you'd be dealing with the usual Knives, one who is out to kill humans and set his plant kind free. you'd be dealing with him at his 'headquarters' (some information I use is from the original trigun and the manga) Don't expect a kind Knives either. He is somewhat insane, certainly sadistic, almost bi-polar with his thoughts. can appear calm and collected one minute and an angry abuser the next. He has convienced himself that everything he does is perfectly fine, he is superior to others so he can do as he pleases. If his sadistic nature is too much I can tone it down upon request.
NOTE: you do NOT need to respond with the same amount, Im fine with a max of 2 paragraphs or less, if you want to write more you can but I myself may not respond with much more than 2 paragraphs after this unless im inspired with a lot of information from you. also please no 1 liners to this.
---Respond in a message with the title "Welcome to July" to continue this.---
Welcome to July
(set after Knives destroys Jeneora Rock)
The city of July, one of the three major cities in No Mans Land, bustling with humans thanks to the 3 large water providing plants. The largest tower to loom over everything was the headquarters of Knives and the 'Eye of Michael' a religious plant worshiping group who secretly did experiments on humans to 'improve' them. Some humans gave their lives to this group, thinking God would save them from the horrors that this desert planet offered in exchange for a sacrifice. The God they worshipped was none other than Knives, and he had no plans to spare their lives. 'they should all suffer' he thought bitterly as long fingers began to slide across the keys of a piano. A familiar song, one of his favorites and one he played often. The melody seemed hopeful, yet full of dispair as if his emotions were being played out on display. He rather enjoyed playing the piano, one of the very few things that brought him any joy on this planet.
How could he enjoy himself though? humans were still alive, his fellow plants still suffering in enslavement to them. Soon though, soon all his effort will bear fruit. He had been going around collecting his 'sibling' plants from the worthless humans, he needed them for his plans after all and the humans didn't deserve them. He still needed to collect his brother though, the thought of him bringing a smile to his face. It had been so long since he had seen Vash, he had missed his twin brother. Before the fall of Jeneora Rock, the last time he saw him was well over 100 years ago, he tried to get Vash to join him but he refused and sided with that witch of a human. Yet again a human taking his brother from him! He was growing irritated at the memories of that day, his hands stopping in their movements as he finished the song.
He could remember that day clearly, as if it just happened. Killing those worthless humans who had just killed off several of his kinds in the 'last run' the sounds of them screaming for help, that only he and Vash could hear. He could even remember so vividly slicing off his own brothers arm, Vash's gate had opened and he clearly couldn't control it, reminding himself that he HAD to stop him. 'He made me do it, he should had just listened to me! then I wouldn't of had to hurt him.' He was angry at Vash and even declared some of his plans to him, however he felt guilty after it had happened, hurting his own brother. He wasn't guilty about slicing off their arm, 'that was necessary' he reminded himself, it was beause he felt some joy from doing it.
He had isolated himself for several years after it had happened, wondering what was wrong with him to feel that way. He was confused for awhile till eventually he convienced himself that it was a normal reaction, it was fine. He was essentially the equivalent of a teenager at the time, eventually his body aging and maturing into his 'adult' appearance where he eventually stopped aging all together, looking the same for well over 100 years. His adult mind falling even further down the rabbit hole of insanity and rage. He knew his brother would come for him, he counted on his brothers love of humans to get him to come here. It would all go according to plan, however the next thing he heard was not.
An Alarm went off, turning his head towards the only enterance to the room when the doctor popped his head in to inform him there was an intruder in the facility. 'an intruder?' he thought, surely it was too soon for Vash to be here? was he that distracted that he didn't notice his brothers arrival? or was someone else foolish enough to come here? Perhaps coming to save one of the unfortunate human children the doctor used for his experiments. The thought amused Knives, 'let them come' perhaps he would allow himself some entertainment if they were lucky enough to make it to his location. He chuckled lightly, his fingers returning to the piano keys letting them dance across them with another song filling the air. Hopefuly that a new plaything would arrive to bring him some joy...
Additional note: if need be you can change some stuff, especially if your character is Vash you can either play it by what the show did or do your own take on it. let me know if you have any questions or concerns too.
