The First Doughnut:: Dawn of someone else's new day

[mayflychaser]

[1:313 Miller Street, in front of his house, morning]

[Slowly, softly, light poured into the master bedroom.  Vash's eyes opened.  He did not otherwise move.  The events prior had drained most of his spirit for much anything.]

Augusta.  I destroyed the entire city, didn't I?...

...didn't I?

[Vash bolted up right suddenly.  He was on a bed, in a room,

[Himeno's out for her morning jog when she sees Vash.]

Nope. You don't look dead to me.

[mayflychaser]

[Vash turns his head quickly as he's snapped out of his thoughts suddenly.]

Who...are you?

[white_pretear]

I'm Himeno.

You must be new, hm?

[mayflychaser]

...You could say that. Where is this place? How far are we from Augusta?

So I'm not the only one disoriented by the amount of greenery here...?

[mayflychaser]

It's a beautiful scene. And yet...I don't know how I got here.

[Vash pauses]

...are you also from Augusta? Or another town nearby?

[ergaleomancer]

I'm from London. But everyone here is from different worlds, let alone cities.

[mayflychaser]

London? That was a famous city on Earth, wasn't it?

[Vash pauses to consider what he's just been told.]

[Don't mind if the sociopath happened to have overheard you there. Behind you.]

Are you normally well-known where you're from?

[Just a pleasant looking young man here. Nothing strange at all.]

[mayflychaser]

[As long as he doesn't have the exact same look on his face of a certain blue-haired nihilist Vash turns around, blinking in the direction of the voice. He pauses to consider the answer.]

[mayflychaser]

Why yes I am. A lone drifter, a hunter of love, a chaser of peace. Not really much beyond that though, haha...

[Vash begins laughing sheepishly, putting his hand behind his head.]

[hungry_monster]

[No he actually appears to be a normal person.]

Such strange things to be well known for.

[But he says it with an amused smile.]

I'm guessing you just woke up here then?

[miss_enma_ai]

[A small girl is watching you.]

[mayflychaser]

[What was this now? Vash raised a hand to wave at her, keeping his voice down a bit more]

Yo! Hello there!

[miss_enma_ai]

[Blinks. Have a quiet emotionless voice.]

...Yes?

[mayflychaser]

[Vash approaches the girl, bending down on his knees and giving a warm smile.]

I'm a little lost here. Can you tell me about this place?

[Have a sigh.]

What do you mean by that? Bakery? There's one down that way, at
Achewood.

[mayflychaser]

[Vash grins]

Achewood. I'll keep that in mind. I take it you're from around here?

[diafryougi]

For the time being, yes.

I am Azaka Kokutou. If you have any questions, I may be able to answer them.

[mayflychaser]

Another mysterious arrival. I've begun to meet a few now.

Thank you. How much do you know about this place?
