Why'd You Kill the Merchant?!

[sansseraph]

Who: ALL O' Y'ALL
Broadcast: If you want
Action: FRICK YEAH PARTY AT THE JUNKYARD...I mean, Waystation. Junkstation.
When: 10/07 - Event End

It looks more like a junk heap than a waystation, but luckily there aren't any math fetishists to add you to the pile (hopefully). Talk to the scavengers and heed their warnings...if you want. Or perhaps you'll approach a shady individual for purchasing or selling stuff.

"Welcome, stranger!"

[At this point, Stefan hesitates. Not because he keeps it private - his open admittance of the invasion says as much - but because so few people have believed him or taken it seriously.]

Well, uh... back on my Earth, there was an alien invasion. It lasted for four days, but it might as well have been an eternity. Only a few countries were unscathed, and my grandparents' country - the desert one I mentioned - was one of them.

[Being forced onto an alien reality television show tends to open one's eyes to the seemingly impossible and unbelievable. Never mind, that Vash has been an invading race in a way to the sand-worms on his planet he doesn't even question it.]

Really? Just four days? Do you know why they did that? I just mean, that's pretty quick. Did you get them to stop? Or did they just leave?

[stefanged]

The reasons don't matter at this point but yeah, we had to fight them.

[We, because Stefan's already indicated that he can take scavengers with no sweat. After a whole fleet of invaders, everything seems easy.]

The rest of the planet's recuperating and rebuilding. Even if it'll take a while, I think we'll bounce back.

[goldenglasses]

I'm glad to hear that you should be able to bounce back. I'm also glad you have family where it's safe to start from.

[stefanged]

Thanks. I'm glad they made it out alive too.

[Figures that the one time they gather for a family wedding, they'd get out of an alien invasion unharmed.]

But in the meantime, I don't think I'm allowed to visit the market anytime soon.

[goldenglasses]

Really? Why can't you visit?

[stefanged]

Because I'm pretty sure half the waystation saw us running.

[Vash... bro....

He was trying to be funny, but Stefan's pretty sure he can't go back anytime soon unless he wants another round of kung-fu fighting.]

[goldenglasses]

Oh yeah. [Vash laughs and slaps his forehead lightly.] I suppose you wouldn't really want to visit after something like that.

[stefanged]

Probably not. [It's okay, Stefan's laughing too as he reaches out and grips Vash's shoulder.] Thanks for having my back there.

I should head back to the ship, but I hope it doesn't affect your plans.

[goldenglasses]

No. I should be just fine. I was heading back to my ship anyway. [He's really not bothered about being seen there again anyway.] Take care and don't get any more fights on the way back.
