[Early this morning the droids had swooped down on Vash during one of his regular trips through the woods. They came fast and hit hard so he had no time to give warning, but it's alright. As he was back by the afternoon, his journal falling open on the ground as he's returned. Only it shows a small boy with long, blond hair with a blindfold over his eyes, a pointy, party hat on his head, and a small strip of paper in his hand. The boy feels around blindly for a moment.]

Come on guys. Am I getting close? Why's it suddenly so cold. Knives? Rem? [A pause and he flails his arms a bit more.] ...Joey? Is this some kind of joke, because I don't really like it. [Finally he pushes up the blindfold.] Hey! This isn't the ship! [There's a pause, and suddenly a smile breaks out on the boy's face.] This is Luceti, isn't it!?

[He looks around, finally spotting the journal and quickly picking it up.] Hi everyone! The snow's all gone! I went home for a little bit, but now I'm back! Is Nicholas still here? Or Sanji?

[Then suddenly, his smile breaks into a pout.] HEY! I didn't even get a piece of cake yet! [That's just not fair!]

[Tiny Vash will be making his way to the village to explore everything again. He'll be sure to stop by the Flower Shop also the bakery and Seventh Heaven for food. Also the clothing store as his clothes aren't exactly early spring appropriate. He'll also play around the fountain for a bit. Feel free to run into him anywhere!

Of course, for the next couple weeks he'll also be staying at House 5 causing mischief for the Trigun members.]

[You know, Senri could notice right away that this new kid entering the flower shop looks suspiciously familiar to one of his friends. A friend that he happens to see there quite frequently.

But fortunately enough for Senri's brain, between being much tinier and having long girly hair he's more or less wondering if Vash had a little brother he just never knew about. Wondering so much in fact that he will pause from his duty of staring lovingly at the flowers to stare slightly-confused-but-mostly-curiously at the mini Vash.]

[Amelia doesn't reply right away. She's too busy staring at her journal, wondering what on Gunsmoke is actually playing on her page. Because everything from those names to that blonde hair and that goofy grin really only means this kid can be one person.

And that makes this all very weird.]

...Vash?

[What's up, little Vash, you aren't the only one around the fountain today! Naoki seems to be heading there as well— Rather engrossed in reading something, it takes him a bit to notice someone else there, but.

Don't mind if he watches you for a few, Vash, blinking.]

[Vash is a little too busy to notice the strange stares he gets. He runs back and forth between all the flowers. Gazing at them all lovingly for a moment before moving on. That is until he gets to the red geraniums. That's where he finally stops and carefully reaches out to slowly turn the pot. Wanting to take in every petal.]

[Vash stares at the book for awhile. Head tipping slightly as he looks Amelia over carefully.] I'm sorry, but I don't think I know you. How do you know my name?

[Vash is a little too distracted to notice the stares. This fountain has an awesome ledge that needs to be walked around! Not to mention that water! Once he gets done pretending to walk on a tight rope, Vash reaches in to splash at the water.]

AH! That's cold! [Not that the cold stops him from laughing and splashing again.]

[Heh. Naoki chuckles to himself, watching the antics.] Careful you don't wind up falling in, there.

Oh! I'll be careful mister! That'd be TOO cold!

Good to hear. Being sopping wet isn't so fun, after all.

[Even less so if one has as much hair as Vash does...]

[Alexei will be at the flower shop when Vash pops in there, though he won't recognize him at all. His mind was off somewhere else, still trying to get over the fact that Bellemere was gone.

Meanwhile, a certain black cat that was following him around did take notice of Vash. He seem rather confused, tilting his head to one side. He seem to recognize Vash, by scent but...Vash sure looked a lot different than he remember. Was this the same Vash?]

[Vash is amazed by all the flowers that greet him when he enters. He spends a few moments taking it all in before he spots Alexei. Ah-ha! An adult!

Vash makes his way over and shyly tugs at the man's cape.] Excuse me, mister. Do you know if they still have red geraniums here?

Well, maybe if it was a little warmer out it could be!

[Alexei glances down at the boy who was tugging him.] Geraniums...? [...Unfortunately Vash picked the wrong person to ask about flowers.]

I'm afraid I'm not familiar with the different types of flowers. You would have to describe it. [Hermes will be circling Vash peculiarly for the time being]

[Vash leans down to pet at the cat that circles him. It sure is cute!] Well, they're red and they have lots of petals, around five or so!

[...Welp, that only helped a little.] ...I'm not sure if they're the right flowers, but I did see something further back. If you'll come this way.

[He'll start moving, Hermes follows behind although he stops just ahead of Vash to make sure he was following]

Okay! [Vash will follow closely behind, sweeping his eyes over all the other flowers that they pass.]

[Well, that answers that. Amelia somehow retrains the desire to smack her forehead in "thanks" to the Malnosso, instead focusing on the kid.]

I'm a friend of Wolf--Nicholas. [And of Vash's, but that won't help much just now.] We live in the same house, actually. He's told me about you.

My name's Amelia. Are you okay? You're not hurt or anything?

Oh yeah. If it was hot, I might join you in jumping on in the fountain.

Hey! Do you know how to swim?

No, I'm not hurt.

Nicholas lives with someone now? That's good! I'm glad he still had friends, I feel bad that I left him.

I do, yeah. [He grins, questioningly.] Why?

If it warms up, do you think you could teach me!?

[He blinks-- Caught by surprise by the request, but soon he laughs.] Sure, why not. I've never tried teaching someone, but I can give it my best shot.

Really! Oh boy! I hope it warms up soon!

[Yes and that is precisely when Senri will snap out of thinking mode and gently-but-firmly grab the flowerpot to stop the pot from turning. Because he is just a tiny bit protective of the flowers. Especially these flowers since they are a constant reminder of his first... well... technically second meeting with Vash when he learned how precious these flowers were and how to take care of them.]
