... We went to a freaky carnival and at times we would see things, then feel nothing. Made it difficult to stay together when we didn't care fuck all, but the rollercoaster was the last part of the carnival and you all found us in the cars.
[ Vash says this all incredibly annoyed, not at all bothered by it. There may have been more, but this is the best summary despite how there were an incredible amount of shitposts he can make about it. It isn't the time and, honestly, it felt like a feverish dream. Feeling apathy in waves is so far removed from who he is, so it felt like he was dissociating.
But he smiles again. ]
I think trying is better than not trying... And from our time here, Jonas, I think you're a good guy. [ A WIP! Mother talk always has Vash go quiet because it may have been so long ago, but he thinks about Rem unfortunately every single day. ] I know. I'm glad you got to meet her, even if it isn't the real her.
I hope she made you guys feel at home, like she did for me and Knives.
[ honestly this is a completely fair summary and jonas sort of nods along because, well, what else do you say to that. ]
Missions are always designed to make things into a huge mess and fuck with your emotions, apparently.
[ but...somehow vash is still smiling and jonas is kind of amazed by that. ]
I'm...trying to be that, too. Good and bad are subjective and whatever but I know what kind of person I want to be. If somebody else thinks it, then...maybe there's hope. [ honestly. this is a mood though. ] She...didn't even really question why we were there. Just welcomed us and let us stay. She kinda reminded me a little of my own mom, so...it was nice to have that again. Even just for a little while.
The great thing about time is that people can change. I'm rooting for you, Jonas.
[ As the weird ancient annoying friend, or as a once upon a time younger brother in the distant land of CYOA, Vash believes in Jonas. ]
Your mom sounds sweet... [ Because, well, Vash thought Rem was sweet, even if she was an airhead. ] I'd like to hear about her sometime. Not now, or soon, but one day.
...thanks, Vash. I'll take it. [ because sometimes you don't have as much support as you would like, and you don't always think you deserve the support you do get. at the rest of that, though: ]
She was, yeah. [ a pause. ] My mom was probably my favorite person in the world. I haven't...really talked about her much, lately, but one day. I wouldn't mind.

He places a hand on Jonas' shoulder, but doesn't squeeze or rub. He doesn't know what secret injuries you might have. Just the ghost of a touch. ]
Take your time.
