"Whoa, you alright?

"That fall you took looked like it scraped you up bad... Hang on, I've got some first aid in my bag." After jogging closer to Chara, Vash sets his rucksack down as he speaks, arm rummaging through its magically enhanced infinite contents.

There's a red woven bracelet tied around one of the bag's front straps. It's a bit faded from exposure to the sun for nearly a year now.

their [re]-"introductory" thread is still ongoing, but Vash has been struck by Chara's sense of independence first and foremost. it seems to be what they let themself be guided by, in lieu of any group of friends or an adult who walks alongside them (which is concerning, but considering his "newness" & how things are on NML currently Vash is unfortunately more used to this sight than not).

Chara is a kind kid. someone who's evidently eager to please, as well as yet another person who's familiar with Vash's past self enough to extend that kindness at any opportunity.

over time, the Stampede's worries on how Chara's being taken care of will grow, if those aren't addressed sooner than later. that's much more important than figuring out who his past self had been to them. as nice as the guy is, Vash has already failed too many children in being ignorant and negligent toward how they're living their lives
