... Submarine accident—like... Submarine for the ocean?

[ WATER???? ]

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.

But it was friendly fire.

[ Vash doesn't looked bored at all, but has them frown. ]

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.

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.

New Sieg, right? I know some of America, but that doesn't sound like a city there...

[ Vash is in a weird middle place. ]

It makes me wonder how much of the stories I read were accurate.

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.

[ it's okay. All cities are real. ]

You know what type of history my brother was into?

[ "was" ]

What type? Guns? War history?

[ SOMETIMES, PEOPLE... CHANGE... IN WAYS. ]

The bible and cowboys.

[ i mean she just assumes dead, but ]

I'm not big on the bible, but sure. Cowboys can be cool.

[ Change can also mean death. ]

Can't say I'm big on, either. [ Despite gunslinging. ] Your world is "modern"-ish, right? Past cowboys.

[ ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ sometimes you have dead brothers ]

Yeah. Like, we... had them in the past. But not so much these days. Still a lot of movies about them, though.
