Who: Vash, Sam, & Nami
Broadcast: None
Action: Water Temple
When: Right now

[Vash floats near the water temple. Having heard of there being a treasure possibly from home inside. It was an interesting prospect.

Having not even thought to ask if anyone wanted to join him on this dangerous adventure he hesitates a bit as he wonders how risky this might be.

Then he starts forward. He's Vash the Stampede! How dangerous can one temple be? He'll probably survive just fine!

Probably...

Of course, having two guardian angels who looks suspiciously like a pirate navigator and a American hunter would probably greatly up his chances at survival.]

If you have a way to break it from a distance? Then by all means, break away! I always like the idea of having a safe and quick escape route in case one is needed.

[namisan]

Okay. In that case, you guys might want to back right up.

[Both because she's not sure what's going to happen in this place if she introduces highly pressurised air, and in case of traps. She unhooks one piece of the climatact from its holster.

ASSUMING YOU'RE BOTH VERY SMART PEOPLE and even if you don't (she tried to warn you), Nami's going to lean around the edge of the doorway and throw a gust sword into the room. It's cutting wind capable of downing monstrous fishmen, it's gonna snap those tripwires with minimal effort, especially when it slams water across them, too.]

....................

[Sam's just gonna paddle off while you do all that.

Vash, you gonna come hide behind this pillar over here, or???]

[goldenglasses]

[Oh hell yes he's getting out of the way. He's learned working for her that when Nami tells you to move, you move! He swims as quickly as he can to follow Sam behind the pillar.]

Go Nami! Show that wire who's boss!

[He ducks back behind when he sees Nami wind up. He doesn't need to see as he can hear the gust of wind that blows through the room. He can also feel the backlash of the water as it's pushed forward and back as the sudden new rush of air displaces it.

Then there's the thumping, crashing, and smashing sounds that comes from the room. Once Vash peers around again when the noise stops the room is nearly unrecognizable. Ancient rocks fill the room. Thrown about by the wind and having fallen from the ceiling. Luckily enough still enough room to get in and move onto the next challenge.]

Yeah, I think I'm pretty glad we didn't get crushed under all of that.

[namisan]

[...uh.

Well.





Shit. That was a lot more violent than she was expecting this close to the entrance.]

[namisan]

[STILL, THAT BEING SAID--]

Room one down! Let's go!

[namisan]

...after you, Vash.

[collegedropout]

..... Nami.....

[omg judging you

don't just throw our friend into the danger headfirst!!

Sam sighs, Which is really just a small current from his mouth, right. Then he starts swimming before the two of them, eager to find what's inside -- and of course, being the first on the chopping block in case something goes hideously wrong.]

Hope nothing alive is in here. I deal with that enough back home.

[goldenglasses]

[As put out as Vash looks at Nami's suggestion that he goes first Vash was still moving to go first. That was until Sam started moving to be the first at the door. Just not being as good of a swimmer he doesn't even make any real attempt to be in front.]

Why do I have to go first? That's not fair! [Doesn't mean he's not going to complain about it even with Sam clearly beating him to the door. Or originally willing and wanting to go first.]

I hope not either. I'd really rather not have to deal with that. [From what he's heard about Sam he's a "Hunter" and considering how most people disagree with his no killing policy? He doubts very much he and Sam will agree. He also heavily doubts Nami will side with him either and that weapon of hers is not one he'd look forward to trying to find a way to counter.]

[namisan]

[Judge all you want, Sam Winchester, this isn't actually about cowardice. She reaches out to latch onto Sam's shirt and pull him backward to let Vash go first, which isn't something she could have managed if they weren't floating in water, but hey, what can you do?]

If you didn't want to go first, you shouldn't have shown you could spot trip wires under water at thirty feet.

[SERIOUSLY THIS IS COMMON SENSE JEEZ. Though she knows Vash well enough that she bets he was all too willing to go first anyway.]

[collegedropout]

[HRRRK —

He looks back with a 'what the heck, Nami' frown, adjusting his stretched collar.]

You know I deal with traps and ambushes for a living, right?

[goldenglasses]

What? Does being under water really make finding trip wires that much harder? [He kids as he swims ahead. He'll just use their bickering to happily put some distance between them and scout the next room. Not finding anything suspicious straight away he'll go ahead and enter the room.

Vash is more than happy for the two to fight between each other for a bit so he can hopefully keep them out of danger a bit longer.]

[namisan]

Yes. [To Vash, you big jerk. Then she raises an eyebrow at Sam.]

Not specifically, no. You've never said that. [She's being pedantic. She's also generally treading water in Vash's general direction, so let's bicker on the way, shall we?] But either way, Vash saw it, we didn't. He can find them, we'll disarm them.

[It's probably not so extremely important, but if you're gonna judge her for waving Vash ahead she's gonna be a little bitch about it :T

...also you have a bad track record at getting hurt, god.]

[collegedropout]

[He rolls his eyes and keeps on swimming ahead.

BICKERING WE SHALL. Sorry Vash, couple's quarrel.]

Just because I've gotten hurt around you before doesn't mean I can't handle some wire traps.

1/3

[goldenglasses]

Yeah, Nami! He can handle wire traps! You know, If he had seen it! [Vash is the most helpful ever. He's got your back Sam even if you don't want it. No need to thank him.]

Huh, I wonder what this does... [Just going to pull this lever here that says: Pull me and-]

[goldenglasses]

[BOOOOOOOOM!]

3/3

[goldenglasses]

Hey!!! Good news! I got the next door open! [He sounds super happy and energetic about that so he's probably fine.]

1/2

[namisan]

[namisan]

[Stabbing a finger at Sam.] Don't say it.

[Okay so she forgot you were STUPID IN OTHER WAYS jfc you're as bad as Luffy-- swimming in after your sorry ass now, Vash.]

[collegedropout]

......................

[Holy shit, Vash. I just. Alright.]

I don't need to say anything you're not already telling yourself.

[I'm just gonna go in last this time.

For my personal safety against my squad.]

[goldenglasses]

[So the room looks a bit exploded. But the door to the next one is open! Miraculously Vash looks completely untouched by the blast.]

What? [He can see that unhappy look on Nami's face.] It said pull me! It's hard not to pull a lever that's asking to be pulled! But! Lesson learned! I won't pull the next one if it comes up again!

[namisan]

Good plan. [She looks around the trashed room (so this is the theme of this run, is it) and then back to Mr Untouched with a curious look, then sighs, heading for the next opening. The room ahead is much longer, with a lot of small passages that seem to head off it.]

Oh. Wonderful.

[It's okay. All the supposed extra passages tend to end with dead ends covered in sharp spikes. That's not ominous at all!]

[collegedropout]

[Yeah, Sam doesn't like that at all. But he does stop and appears attentive.]

The current's flowing that way. [He motions with a nod, and scoops a small square of cotton material out of his pants pocket to watch it travel along the faintest tug of the water. He'd considered it plausible after seeing everyone's hair lean just a bit to a particular direction, but this is good testing, here.] ... I figured we might run into mazes or something, so.

[goldenglasses]

[Vash watches the cotton float away. Eventually coming to land on some spikes.] Doesn't look like we can just let the current take us either. We'll have to swim against it then?

[Suddenly wishing he was a slightly stronger swimmer, but he thinks he can do it.]

[namisan]

[Nami approves of your common sense, Sam. She also watches the cotton float its merry way across the room. Kind of interesting how it sort of swerves a third of the way across to meet those spikes. Hmm. Conflicting currents.

This requires some headtilting and thinking. Don't mind her, carry on.]
