she is very happy to take selfies, maybe surprisingly? maybe it's just that she likes having people who like being around her. out with the squirrels means that shenhe is feeding them spaghetti because why not, these fat fucks will eat anything.]
Enough of them in a tree would be a problem for the tree. [... pats a squirrel. They are trying to climb into your coat, Vash.
[ he actually is very excited to collect photos on his phone.
Is this... the special spaghetti. Help. Vash doesn't judge because he has fed animals a bunch of things. The wild beg, they do not choose. As he's taking a video of Shenhe patting a squirrel, he sputters. ]
[i forgot that the spaghetti costs money so pretend it's something else like idk alfredo. it's just pasta.
anyway there's two squirrels trying to get in his pockets and one is crawling up his sleeve. shenhe just watches with the kind of terrible gremlin amusement that she's learning from people like wolfwood.]
[ Where are these little freaks, anyway. Vash tries to scruff one that's trying to check his back pocket. Sorry he has no real cake or metaphorical cake. ]
Plus, do you think you can take them out without burning my clothes off in the process?
[ Him trusting she won't burn him real but instead HIS CLOTHES WOULD BE IN DANGER. The logic is impeccable ]
[yeah no she would set his clothes on fire, probably. she just has a lot of confidence.]
Some of them are nicer than others. [she says with a huff. she tosses the squirrel in her hand away and it shrieks the whole time.] I do not reward the ones that bite.

Vash digs his heels into place, freezing in hopes that the squirrels will just LEAVE HIM BE. No, they scale him like a tree. ]
I don't have any more food! [ Desperate: ] Shenhe, help!!
no subject
shenhe doesn't laugh but this is hysterical. she stands, as the squirrels start chewing on vash's fingers.]
Hold still. [and she summons a fire sword? PLEASE]
no subject
Suddenly, he's hugging himself, like that will keep the squirrels in place when they're just scurrying. ]
Don't hurt the squirrels!!!
no subject
she just gives him such a like ??? look]
You asked me to save you. [that is what she's DOING, vash]
no subject
Yes, but that doesn't mean kill them!

Yes. [she could absolutely take them out without setting his clothes on fire??? she is so offended that he thinks she can't aim wow
but it's fine, she just shakes out the fire sword, and reaches to pluck the one on his shoulder off of him. it squeaks angrily.]
They're going to chew through your clothes if you're not careful.

[ FIRE IS DANGEROUS... VOLATILE... IT SPREADS... He is, however, impressed and it shows, but. Squirrels. ]
I thought we made friends with them...
[ The one he scruffed is more calm, considering it didn't find anything in his back pocket. ]

no subject
This one seems nice?
[ Despite her threatening to kill them, he lets her hold it. ]
Even though it was being a little goblin scurrying all over me. [ ... ] It was kinda fun, though. No Man's Land doesn't have a lot of animals.
no subject
No, I didn't think that it did. Wolfwood mentioned it is mostly sand and sun. Not many things live well in that.
no subject
We do not, but do you know what we do have?
no subject
... What? [wary....]
no subject
[ In which we can wrap up them going to the museum so Vash can show her a display of No Man's Land whale-sized worms.
i hope she is impressed, but also not ]
