Better than nothing. But we’re still no closer to knowing what that barrier thing even is. [ … ] At this point though, I agree it’s to keep us in rather than shut us out of something.
[ controlled chaos? is that what they’d call it? ]
[ it’s fine… i too passed out. when will this heat end so i can snap my sleep schedule over my knee once more? ]
I really don’t get how a place can survive without greenery. There’s none? At all? This isn’t just like a desert area and then you stumble across civilisation and parks if you hold out long enough?
[ he fucking hates it, thanks vash. shu has never wanted to live laugh love in his life. ]
Mm. He seems kinda flaky, in terms of if something is going to be difficult. Funny that he was the first one to ask about all the potential death, then.
[ He says, being an old person himself, but... They can move on to photos. ]
... I think it's supposed to be... Posed? Pictures? Never seen a place like this myself, but I thought it might be fun to record some memories before shit hits the fan.
Yeah. Fulfilment’s kind of a vague term though. What works for one person does’t work for another, so it probably takes some people longer.
[ grandpa vash ]
… [ he looks thoughtful and then pulls a face — a slight one, with a little twist of the mouth. ] Mm. You’re expecting that to go like they said it would too?

vash may have one (1) wave. ]
You exploring?
no subject
[ He shows pictures of. A group of blahaj. He took these. ]
We got this and a park instead.

You don’t like the singular tree and slide?
no subject
[ And the first removal begins, but he doesn't add that. He keeps on smiling, anyway. Look at his shark family. ]
I like the singular tree. It's more than I'm used to.
no subject
[ there’s a smile on his face that isn’t exactly … pleasant might not be the right word. it’s quite a dry smile. ]
But it’ll vanish eventually.
[ …. hm. ]
No greenery where you’re from?
no subject
Desert planet. Saaaand as far as your eyes could see.
no subject
Desert… [ huh. not the first time he’s heard about a desert planet. ] No cacti?
no subject
I think there's a prickly pear here and there, but pretty rare.
[ How do you like his shark pieta? They are posed under the neon lights that say "LIVE LAUGH LOVE." ]

Juuuust sand. The worms are a native species there and they seem to be doing fine.
[ Puts on sunglasses on top of his sunglasses. He comes over with some sunglasses, too.
But ends up holding Shu's hand. ]
We've been trying to contact earth, though. Been at it for a hundred years.
no subject
Guess they've had more time to adapt.
[ oh.
i guess they are holding hands now. ]
At what point do you give up?
no subject
[ Dude with the "give up when the going gets tough." ]
no subject
[ ... ]
Mm. He seems kinda flaky, in terms of if something is going to be difficult. Funny that he was the first one to ask about all the potential death, then.
no subject
[ Does that help. He swings their hands a bit. ]
It seems like he really wants to live again.
no subject
[ swing, swing, swing. touch week is so funny because shu's fine with this but also like 'hm. what do I do' ]
Don't most people? That's what makes the upcoming weeks so potentially volatile.
no subject
[ Speaking of doing things, he bumps their shoulders and whispers: ]
Want to take picture?
no subject
[ like. rich people too. damn. he lets vash bump their shoulders together, and moves with the force of the bump a little lazily. ]
...
I'm not a big fan of photos. Is this place meant to be different, somehow?
no subject
[ He says, being an old person himself, but... They can move on to photos. ]

I'm hopeful that people want to avoid violence.
[ Hopeful doesn't quite mean he's naive. To kind of take the edge off of things, he puts on a mustache that makes him look like the Lorax. ]
no subject
You can have all the hope you want. But people are gonna want to live again.
[ ergo. not even your false Lorax 'tache can save you from that truth, vash. not even speaking for the trees... ]
1/2
[ There are so many here that have something to live for. He knows, so he looks like a sad Lorax. ]
But it doesn't mean we can't keep looking for another way.
no subject
[ Vash is weirdly strong for looking like a noodle, so he DRAGS shu to a studio room. ]
no subject
...
[ and what a whiplash it is. ]
What, get them in before the inevitable happens? [ he's not even being a debbie downer, he's just a ✨ realist ✨ unfortunately. ]
no subject
Ideally, we should have nice moments in between. [ He's going through the backdrops. ] Never forget how to laugh and smile.
