[Today Vash is at the Battle Dome. Not usually his favorite place in Luceti, but even an expert gunman needs to practice if he wants to be ready for anything a draft might throw at him. So he's running a few simulations.

He's set the settings and enemies to random, but cranked the difficult level up to high. It doesn't give him much trouble. Even the first setting on the moon doesn't slow him down. He easily compensates the weightlessness, gliding around easily enough. The fact that his gun doesn't work is a problem at first, but he gets good at sneaking around the robots that come after him and takes them down hand to hand and with a knife hidden in his boots.

The next is in a forest. This time it's panthers and other exotic creatures that are after him. Not to mention the hunters in there that are not happy to see Vash at all. It doesn't take long to shoot out their legs and ditch the animals. The scene changes quickly.

Old Western. Now THIS was familiar a small town filled to the brim with bandits. Very familiar. He shoots quickly, bandits fall one by one by one. Clutching at arms and legs when suddenly a man appears, that looks strikingly like Vash himself, and without even a second thought Vash shoots him right between the eyes.]

STOP! [The scenario stops but takes a moment to disappear. Vash stares down at his brother until he vanishes. With a sigh he runs his hand through his hair. It was getting long and shaggy.] I messed it up again. I should have- [He shakes his head.] Can't change the past. [He exits the room, having enough of this and grabs his journal.]

[Voice]

Anyone a hair stylist? I think I need a trim. Or maybe even a change. [He makes sure to give the journal a nice, happy grin.] And to everyone new coming in I hope you're able to settle in! Things may not always seem so great here, but it's not all bad, right? At least the food is free! It's nice not having to worry about having spare cash on you all the time!

[Whatever, Vash. Sanji's not about to indulge your whining. Switching the convo. B|]

Oi, where's your coat? I forgot you had more clothes than your usual outfit.

Eh, it's more of a desert coat. This was a bit warmer for winter. All that leather I have to wear under it was a bit of a pain to put on anyway.

Aa, I guess that makes sense. [He sends a glance to Vash's hair]

New hair-style might be nice to go with the new look, too.

Yeah, that's what I was thinking. Don't know why I didn't think of it sooner actually.

What sorta look would you go for?

Not sure, but the curly eyebrow look I doubt will work for me.

[Oh look at that - Sanji's foot all up in Vash's face.

Wonder how that got there]

[Probably much the same way that Vash ended up on his back on the floor.] OW! OW! OW! OW! MY BNOOBS!

--So anyway, Broom Head.

What did you want to drink?

[Look at all the shits Sanji gives to your pain]

[Vash gets back into his seat, holding his nose carefully.] Something with a whole lot of ice in it.

How about lemonade? [La la la, getting to his feet with a smile. 8D

It's nice having a regular kicking bag again]

Fine, fine... and extra ice. And maybe a new waiter that won't kill me before I order too.

Unless it's about food, I don't take shitty requests. [And he'll be back in a few moments with that lemonade and ice. The latter will even come nicely packaged in a plastic bag]

[Vash happily takes that bag of ice and presses it to his face.] So any suggestions for someone who can't eat baked goods anymore?

That shit depends. Is it just baked foods or can you not eat anything too high in carbohydrates?

[Because that's kinda what it sounds like here]

I don't know. I've tried breads, cakes, and just about anything in the bakery. That's all out.

[Hearing it a second time, Sanji's gotta admit that's a pretty cruel punishment for a guy with a sweet tooth. He hums to himself]

How about nuts of some kind? Especially if you give 'em a bit of seasoning, they can be pretty good.

I guess so, but they'll never be gooey and fresh like donuts were!

Of course not, dumbass - they're nuts. If they're gooey, you shouldn't be eating them.

I want some donuts.

Well you're not getting donuts.

But that's what I want and crave! I need them!

Would you cut out that racket?! I said you're not getting any!

I KNOOOOOOOOW! AND THAT'S WHY IT'S SO HARD!
