[Vash had just finished raiding his fridge and made himself a ham sandwich. It was perfect. Cheese, mayo, lettuce, tomato, and plenty of ham! He set it on the table and with a smile on his face he was just about to sit down and enjoy this tasty meal when - Poof!

He found himself falling backwards into the nothingness where his chair should have

[Oh, well, that's nice. Wolfwood finds you hanging on a tree outside their apartments... Why is it you cause him so much grief? Granted, if he left you out there and just walked off, he'd be better off... but then Meryl might get mad if you caught a cold or some shit.]

Not again... hey, Needle Noggin! Wake your ass up! How'd you even get up there?

[Yeah, he basically picks up a palm-sized rock and flings it at the spikey-haired man. What won't kill you will make you stronger.]

A desert of...GREAT FLAMING CACTI!

[wanderer_jack]

No, it was merely that...[Jack ran across the branch and leaped fluidly onto the ground nearby.]...there were not storms and rains of such strength in the future ruled by Aku. It was often very desolate and barren, but no, not quite a desert.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! SCARY!

[goldenglasses]

...sound rough. I'm sorry to hear that.

AND THERE ARE NO DONUTS IN THE FUTURE!!

[wanderer_jack]

[Jack picks up his one sandal and dusts it off.] It is not without hope. I seek to return to my proper time and defeat Aku before his evil has chance to spread across the land. My time here in Luceti has merely taught me that perhaps a true domicile would not be a burden upon me.

No.... you lie! YOU LIE! D<

[goldenglasses]

Then I wish you luck in defeating him. You know, if you ever need a hand getting around town or settling in, you just have to ask. I do kinda owe you for for destroying your tent.

SEARCH YOUR FEELINGS, YOU KNOW IT TO BE TRUE!!

[wanderer_jack]

I thank you. And do not worry, it was not solely your fault that my tent collapsed. More than just you have landed upon it since your departure from my camp.

NEVER! I REFUSES TO BELIEVE IN A WORLD WITHOUT DONUTS!

[goldenglasses]

Well, it's the friendly thing to do too then.

NO VASH YOU ARE THE DONUTS!!

[wanderer_jack]

I would say I could have salvaged the tent...[He lowered his head and let out a loud sigh.]...until the priest with the large cross landed upon it.

...I may be okay with this.

[goldenglasses]

[LOUD LAUGH] Yeah! That'd be Wolfwood, alright!

For every donut you eat, you devour part of yourself...

[wanderer_jack]

Yes, that was his name. His cross impaled the tent. [His eyebrows twitched as he recalled the events, still horribly fresh in his mind.] And my hat was also crushed in the tussle.

But if I eat it... then it becomes a part of me?

[goldenglasses]

Ah, sorry about that. Hopefully the clothing shop will have another one? [And feel free to notice Vash gave you a different name than the one Wolfwood called him. Of course - was Wolfwood talking about someone else that wore a long coat and spiky hair?]

It is a vicious cycle...you masochist.

[wanderer_jack]

Perhaps this is a sign that I should begin searching for a domicile, one that I do not merely stake into the ground and hope it outlasts the elements. Maybe...I have been a wanderer for long enough.

But... the donuts!

[goldenglasses]

Yeah, I was a wanderer back home myself, but I've found I've grown very fond of living in the village and being able to talk to my friends quickly. Although I'd be lying if I said I'd never want to travel from town to town again.

The donut is a lie!

[wanderer_jack]

I traveled out of necessity, to find a way back to my own time or at least defeat Aku. Since it seems neither are here in Luceti, I believe that my need to wander can be satiated without fearing a flood washing away what I staked as a home.

YOU LIE!

[goldenglasses]

...I can understand that. I had something to take care of myself back home, but that's home, when I'm not teleporting all over the place, Luceti isn't a bad vacation really.

Do I? Or are you just afraid of the truth?

[wanderer_jack]

[Jack grins smugly.] Yes, you seem most adept at finding trees to hang upside down from.
