Who: Vash and you!
Broadcast: Yes
Action: The Space Bar
When: Right now!

Video

[It's taken Vash a lot of talking to get himself to make this post. He was embarrassed and shy which was making it very difficult. Still, it was something he had been thinking about for months now so he really needs to do it. No point to keep putting it off.]

So, ah, I know there are some doctors on board. People skilled with magic too. Is anyone good with getting rid of old scars. Like really bag, old scars? The kind make up won't cover up?

Action

[Vash will also be working his bartender job at The Space Bar later on. Standing behind the bar with a big smile on his face.] What can I get you? [Come tell the bartender all your problems!]

Yeah... Yeah, of course I am. It's your body. I want you to be healthy and happy in it. Whatever you want.

You're beautiful either way, Vash. [She's gotten push back for calling men beautiful before, but "handsome" feels sort of old fashioned to her and hot isn't really what she's going for here even if it applies sometimes.]

Yeah, but I could look a lot better. You can't tell me a bit of metal is comfortable to snuggle up against.

[He's right about that, but she's not confirming it. She's also pretty used to it. Not just from Vash, but from, you know, that one metal ex who killed her.]

I do worry about the medical implications of having metal like that attached to you. I mean, it doesn't look infected or anything, but long-term it could lead to heavy metal poisoning if it isn't the right kind of metal and I don't know if your world really had the technology to figure that kind of thing out.

I think it's made from left over space ship scrap metal. It's designed for space so it's probably fine.

It's designed for space so it's probably fine? [She laughs.] Vash, what does that have to do with organic life? [Your science is broken.]

I have no idea, but I'm hoping it's fine.

[That gives her pause.] I hope it's fine too. I'm not rooting for heavy metal poisoning.

I've had a doctor I trust back home look at it. He's not concerned so I don't want you to be either.

But I've barely even begun to worry about you. Why would you take that away from me? [Teasing. She doesn't really feel relieved by even the best most trusted doctor in his world unless maybe it was someone from the first generation of humanity that got there who still knew how to fly across the galaxy before it was more about survival.]

I could be more reckless and give you something to actually worry about if that's what you'd prefer.

Oh, I have no doubt you will given enough time.

So there you go. Don't worry about the scars. Worry about the fire I just started!

We don't tease about fires on my ship, Vash.

Yes sir, ma'am, sir! No more teasing about fires!

Good.

.......You didn't really start one right?

I didn't start a fire. Promise! [He crosses his arm in front of his heart.] I'm from a desert, remember? We've very fire safe in the desert.

Thank you.

Did I just thank you for not setting the ship on fire? My bar has gotten way too low.

You're very welcome! And funnily enough that's not the first time someone's said that to me.

[Just shaking her head at him.] So, um...have any doctors or healers replied?

One has actually. He's going to take a look, but he's not so sure the ships will have the equipment he'll need to help. I'll, ah, I'll tell you about it after he sees me?

Yeah, I'd like that. [And she'll try not to interfere too much even though she's protective.]

We, um, we do have that surgical suite that Dr. Crusher set up on the Iskaulit for working on Wrath. I'm not sure if it's all still there or if her leaving made it disappear or it's been picked over, but there could be things there for it.

I'll have to check it out. Do you think that place had an X-ray machine?
