[The video starts with a rapid, bouncing motion of the sky as if the book had just been dropped and landed on it's spine before falling open. It's quickly followed by a long yell and a LOUD splash! The image bobs up and down a moment before slowly the book starts to slide and tip over. Water starts to creep up and take over the screen as there's another splash and the sound of a man taking a LARGE breath of air.]

AHHH! Oh man, I think I saw a bright light that time! Or maybe that was the su-[Glub! Opps! No time to try to relax just yet. Luckily there's another gasp shortly after that.] GAAHH! This swimming thing is hard- [Opps, there went the journal. There's a muffled yell before the book is yanked up and out of the water.]

Oh man... it's soaked. [At last there is a view of a rather wet Vash, staring into the journal as he clutches onto a small piece of drift wood. That's a LOT of water behind him.]

Uh... is this thing still working? Ahahaha... heeeey there guys. No need to worry! But I uh, won't be home tonight. Or... uh... maybe a week. [He glances up. A big revealed grin shows up on his face.] Oh good! I can see the mountains from here! Now I know which wa- [Whoops, he got a little too excited, the book joins him back under water as he flips over his little piece of wood. It takes only a few moments for him to surface again.]

Aiaiaiiaiai... man that's cold and was that... salt? I'll just be home as fast as I can, okay?

I don't know. How did you wind up in the mountains? Only, switch the girl out for a demon and there was more teleporting than tossing.

[notabluesbro]

... You're kidding me.

[voice]

[goldenglasses]

[He flicks his hand in and out of the water to make a some splashing sounds.]

Re: [voice]

[notabluesbro]

... How far of a swim is it?

[voice]

[goldenglasses]

I don't know. Far? [He flips the journal around. You can KINDA see the tops of the mountains.... sometimes as he bobs up and down.]

Re: [voice]

[notabluesbro]

... How the hell are we supposed to find you with just some mountains?

[voice]

[goldenglasses]

I DON'T KNOW! DO YOU THINK I PLANNED THIS!?

Re: [voice]

[notabluesbro]

I DON'T KNOW, DID YOU?!

[OBVIOUSLY I DON'T BELIEVE THIS I'M JUST FRUSTRATED AT YOU

CLEARLY YOU'RE TO BLAME OKAY]

Re: [voice]

[goldenglasses]

WELL I DID-uh oh...

Re: [voice]

[notabluesbro]

Come again?

[voice]

[goldenglasses]

I uh... think the mountains are getting smaller.

Re: [voice]

[notabluesbro]

Then stop letting them!

Who's coming to get you??

[voice]

[goldenglasses]

DO YOU THINK I'M LETTING THEM!?

[Not answering that second part. He'll let you know when he finds out. |Db]

Re: [voice]

[notabluesbro]

YES!

[HUFF Lord help me.]

If you can see the mountains, then you know which way to start swimming, right??

[voice]

[goldenglasses]

I'm TRYING! I don't seem to be going anywhere! [What is current?]

Re: [voice]

[notabluesbro]

[URGH]

I thought you said you were kinda okay at swimming??

[voice]

[goldenglasses]

I DON'T REALLY KNOW! I've only been swimming once before! AND IT WAS IN A LAKE! The water didn't keep moving around!

[His instincts are enough to keep his head above water and a TINY bit of swimming, not enough to swim the whole ocean like a pro! But oh, how he wishes!]

Re: [voice]

[notabluesbro]

Then kick faster!! Doggy paddle more, or something!

[voice]

[goldenglasses]

I'm trying! I'm trying! I'm-AHHHHHHHHHH! [Sorry Wolfwood, the journal just got dropped into the water. It's just going to sink for a bit as Vash is startled by a mermaid.]

Re: [voice]

[notabluesbro]

Vash??

Hey—Don't you go dying out there, or I'll kick your ass!

[GODDAMMIT, now you've got him panicking.]

DAMMIT, SPIKEY.

[When he hears back from you, he'll determine that he'll definitely kick your ass regardless of if you dying out there.]

[voice]

[goldenglasses]

[It's some time before Vash is shaking his journal out on shore trying to get it to work again, but he manages it! And he already figures he's in trouble.]

Hey, Wolfwood! I figured out how to get back to shore!



...ever heard of a mermaid?

Re: [voice] 1/2

[notabluesbro]

[HNNNGH]

Don't freak me out like that! Geez!!

Re: [voice]

[notabluesbro]

... A mermaid?

[There's a beat, as he calms and recalls the memories of a little dirty orphan getting told ocean stories by a guy with a damn curly eyebrow.]

Half-fish people, right?

[voice]

[goldenglasses]

Yeah! I found one! Or well... she found me, but she got me to shore! [Tired as hell and soaking wet, but he's so happy right now.] Katie helped me out too!

[Yeah, both of them saved him... somehow. TIME AND SPACE BE DAMNED!]

Re: [voice]

[notabluesbro]

... Katie, huh?
