[Vash was not happy last night when the droids had snatched him up on his way home last night. At least he hadn't been gone for very long and they had only turned him human for awhile! Only, they turned him into a 133 year old man. At least dropped him off in the village this morning!

If only they had gotten him a walker too. Vash manages to shuffle his way to a bench near the fountain before his energy wears out and he opens up his journal.]

Heh, sorry if I worried anyone back home. I'm back now. So you can stop worrying Amelia-chaaaaan! Hahahaha! [If the Malnosso think they can put him down by making him old they got another thing coming. And yeah, he's not coming right out and saying who he is right now. That would ruin part of the fun!] Think one of you could come down and give me a hand getting home?

[Private to Winry]

Ah, and Winry, if you have a moment could you help me remove my prosthetic arm? It's Vash, the Malnosso decided to age me just a bit and it's a tad too heavy for me right now.

[End Private Message]

Oh! And Sanji! Do you think you could help out an old man and make a quick delivery? The bakery seems so far away now. These old knees just can't take it!

[And until someone comes to help him home, Vash will be relaxing in that bench enjoying the weather. He'll also take advantage of his old looks to make some cat calls at any pretty girl passing his way.]

That's all right. [Wow, it's... odd seeing him with all those wrinkles.]

[Action]

[goldenglasses]

Thanks for coming out to me. I never realized just how heavy this thing is!

[She opens her box, and starts pulling out a couple tools.]

Yeah, well it is made out of metal. I hope it hasn't burdened you too much yet. Do you want me to keep it in the smithy until you need it again?

[Action]

[goldenglasses]

Not too much yet. I just got dropped off a little while ago. And if you could it would be great if you could hang on to it for me. I'll probably need it back in a week or two.

[She smiles.]

No problem. I'll keep it safe. [Winry begins to detach the arm.]

[Action]

[goldenglasses]

Thanks. [No wait. Wasn't there something he usually did before she looked at his arm before.

Huh. Oh wait! That's right!]

Just be a little careful. I have a gun hidden inside the arm.

[She freezes for a moment, and gulps.]

You... you do?

[Action]

[goldenglasses]

Yes, I'm sorry, I usually try to take it out before I have you work on it at all. If it bothers you I can take it home with me.

[Action]

[installing]

No, it's-

[She inhales deeply, and then breathes out slowly.] It's fine. This is my job.

[Action]

[goldenglasses]

No. It bothers you. It's alright. It will be fine at my place.

[Action]

[installing]

Vash stop. I meant what I said.

[Action]

[goldenglasses]

I'm sorry. I just don't want you to be uncomfortable.

[Action]

[installing]

There are some things I have to learn to deal with. This is one of them.

I'll be careful, all right?

[Action]

[goldenglasses]

I'm sorry. [He points down to the forearm.] It's hidden in a chamber, here. As long as you don't tamper with it, it won't go off.

[Action]

[installing]

[She tries to smile as she returns to disconnecting his arm.]

Don't be. Your my customer, remember?

[Action]

[goldenglasses]

Maybe, but I don't need to making you uncomfortable either.

[Action]

[installing]

It's okay. It was unavoidable this time. [All right, there. It's all disconnected, and she carefully moves the arm away.]

[Action]

[goldenglasses]

Ah! Thank you. I feel lighter already. [Although it was going to suck having only one arm.]

[Action]

[installing]

Just be careful, okay? Your balance is going to be off without this.

[Action]

[goldenglasses]

Thanks. You're right, this will take some getting use to, but it's not the first time I've gone without it for a bit.
