Uhh. From what I gathered, basically they'll be coming to pick everyone up in a couple of years. Told us to hold out until then, but they... Ended up coming early?
Yeah. The USS Kanaloa. It was a world war II submarine that got—um. [ she sounds a little self conscious like she thinks this is probably boring to him, but she carries on anyway. ] Well, we were taught it was sunk by an enemy sub chaser.
Yeah, I don't know. With different worlds it's all crazy. Like, Shu is from America like I am. But a city I've never heard of. I don't think it exists in my world.
[ and frankly that's weirder than people from entirely different worlds. anyway, she lets out a small sigh. ]
Yeah, it was—it was an accident that got covered up. It's sad.
It's like an extra place where it doesn't belong. It's weird.
[ she says, also from a made-up city. ]
... I don't know. When it comes to the big stuff, even if the victors write history, it's still impossible to hide the more messed up stuff they've done. But... I think small details probably get lost a lot. Not even maliciously.

Anything in here from your world?

[ that seems good. she thinks. but she will lead him along to a big monument of some kind. is that a bird. who knows. ]
Yeah, uh. A couple things like this are around here.
no subject
[ And then he died, I guess. It's very shrugs for him, but... THIS MONUMENT. Pooh bear meme. ]
Is this... Art?
no subject
[ she can't fully wrap her head around it though. like... are they really getting everyone off the planet...?? ]
Yeah. It's a monument for a submarine accident.

[ WATER???? ]
no subject
But it was friendly fire.
no subject
I've read of history before... But only some pieces here and there. Even then, it might not be the same as yours.
[ Genuinely, he is sad dog. ]
Friendly fire—that's heartbreaking. Saying the enemy caused it doesn't help, either. War is a nasty thing, I've read.

[ Vash is in a weird middle place. ]
It makes me wonder how much of the stories I read were accurate.

You know what type of history my brother was into?
no subject
What type? Guns? War history?
no subject
The bible and cowboys.
no subject
I'm not big on the bible, but sure. Cowboys can be cool.
no subject
Can't say I'm big on, either. [ Despite gunslinging. ] Your world is "modern"-ish, right? Past cowboys.
no subject
Yeah. Like, we... had them in the past. But not so much these days. Still a lot of movies about them, though.
no subject
I guess cowboys still have their charm. [ Which makes him want to ask. ] Have family yourself?

I'm sorry!
