[Vash was sore. Spending several weeks combat testing for the Malnosso was a pain, but the points he earned that he one day hoped to spend on seeing Noah one day were hopefully worth it.

Long hair still tied back in a pony tail, wearing the green long sleeve shirt and brown pants that he wore during the combat tests, and sporting a few new bruises and a slight limp, he drops himself in Good Spirits first. Needing a good stiff drink.

It's while nursing his fourth or fifth drink that he eventually opens the journal.]

Hey there. I'm back. Sorry, I was gone a little longer than expected. Hope things weren't too hectic at Seventh Heaven without me. I'll be back to work tomorrow. Oh, and as long as things are working normally around here still, welcome to all the New Feathers. Hope your stay here won't be too horrible or long!

[For the next few hours Vash will be working his way through a bottle of whiskey. Then it's off to the grocery store to restock his apartment. Speaking of which, the very moment he gets back to community building four he'll be attacked by a couple cats who have missed their favorite scratching post. Feel free to run into him at any point in his wanderings today.

After relaxing just a bit at home, Vash does finally decide to open his journal just once more.]

I'm back. [It's all that's said for now. He's not really sure he wants to talk to his brother anyway. Still, one never does make the best choices while buzzed.

It's later on when he finally checks his calender and sees just what day it is. Or close to. July 21st. They just had to bring him back in time to remember the anniversary of the destruction of the city of July. He was going to need a lot more alcohol over the next couple days.]

Guess I was just wondering if I should say welcome or not! Do you have telephones or radios where you're from? These journals kind of work like them. If you speak into it then anyone else who has one opened can hear you.

[Hope you don't mind Revy coming over to snatch up your journal and inspect it, Vash. She thumbs through the pages and even shakes it out a little.]

How the hell does that work? This thing's made of paper!

[Vash doesn't mind at all. He's half blown it up before and it eventually fixed itself. He doubts Revy will do much worse to it.] It's actually a lot more complicated than it looks. It even takes video. Here give it back and I'll show you where the camera is.

You should have one too. It would have been near where you woke up.

[Revy tosses the journal Vash's way.]

Yeah, I saw. [Belatedly. She hadn't noticed it the first day she arrived in Luceti, but then it had mysteriously shown up by her bedside 24 hours later.] But I ain't much of a book person.

[Vash nimbly catches the journal and opens it up.] Well, this book may change your mind. You see this here? You can press it and talk to everyone else who has their book open too.

..I see. So is that what you folks do for fun around here? Just call up everyone like a bunch of gossipy old ladies?

[She doesn't sound very enthused about the idea.]

[goldenglasses]

Well, I wouldn't say that's the only thing for fun around here. There's lots of other things as well. It just makes things easier when it comes to talking to each other.

[Too bad Revy rarely feels like talking to people. But she does need to learn more about her situation. She shifts her weight slightly, a hand on her hip.]

So how long you been in this dump for, blondie?
