[ the way this means nothing to me but also did you gaslight us into thinking he was blond this whole game ]
Sand sea... sounds terrible. [ sea not made of water? breaks skateboard ] But it sounds similar. You bait a line and try to catch a fish in the water with it. ...I like swimming, but this is good too.
[ there are lots of aquatic activities!! ] Do you want to try?
[ He was completely blond at the beginning of the game is why I had to mention it has changed... don't want characters saying vash is blond and me being like no he isn't anymore... ]
Yeah! It beats pondering underground and listening to cave noises.
[ Fishing pole... Bait. He will prep. ]
It's seems like a peaceful activity, too. I could use some peace.
[ being canon familiar like how on earth did you manage to do this you stupid plant
haru, not being canon familiar: hair different ]
...Yeah. We all could. [ and fishing is sort of meditative, in a way. he'll help him bait his line if he needs it. ] I think most of us have forgotten to enjoy ourselves a little.
Yeah. [ the atmosphere is way worse now than it was at the very beginning. but people are closer to one another now, too. a lot about the game board has changed. ] The game's almost over. This might be all the time we get.
[ which sounds dark, but his tone is pretty neutral. like—may as well enjoy life if this is what's left of it? ]
[ Well, Vash just doesn't think they're choices kids should need to make. It's a sad thing, really, because in the end there's not much they can do here. He doesn't want to take away their agency, either. ]
If you ever feel super wound up, we can go fishing like this. Or swimming. I think I've gotten a lot better at the latter.
That's good. [ stoic, but sincere. ] Water can be dangerous. But it's also relaxing, once you stop being afraid. It's easier to float when you're not nervous.

It's kind of like worm wrangling, I'm guessing. People go out and catch worms, either in the desert or in the sand sea.
[ also me like i forgot to say most of Vash's hair is black with a blond streak in the front. At this point I can't hide it. ]
I thought you would be swimming.

Haru may help him like how he helped him with swimming. anyway, he nods as he starts fishing. ]
I agree... A lot has changed—and maybe people have changed, too, but that doesn't mean they don't deserve a moment of solace.

It doesn't matter what people are asking us to do. We already decided before then.

[ yeah like everyone out here is murdering and maybe that's the cruel necessity of this place and he hates it, but he does love swimming!! ]
Have you been practicing?
no subject
Kind of. I mostly swim to relax every once in a while, or just float around. The point is! It doesn't make me feel that nervous.

New worry, there's not much water in No Man's Land. I'll miss pools.
