[ Hands on his hips, he looks down at himself. He's just wearing a dress shirt and a little brown vest. It's very simple, a lot simpler than the clothes he was able to buy in the Underground. ]
I kinda wore similar stuff when I went by Eriks. [ Turning his attention back to Livio, he looms over the presents. Meager as they are, it's the thought that matters. ] Need some help carrying those?
[ Vash laughs a bit before giving Livio a pat on the shoulder. Sometimes it's nice to wear something different. ]
Thanks, big guy. [ Being closer lets him see the smushed food which has him smile more, not that he's happy about it but more of a "god well nothing I can do here" vibe. ] Sure. Tell me what ya got?
[ livio still has the suit.... but he's kind of self-conscious about it now that they're back at home, so he's in his regular cowboy getup ]
[ it's mostly sweets and snacks, but the kind that is pretty hard to get your hands on in no man's land. he obviously went through a lot of trouble here. ]
[ a few donuts for vash, too ]
Just stuff I thought you guys would like... and, um, the kids of course.
Kinda miss how convenient it was to get food over there....
[ His cowboy outfit is a lot cuter, anyway! Vash peruses and sees the donuts which he imagines are for him. ]
Try not to give it to them all at once. Too much sugar means they're going to be a handful for us.
[ Hehe as he takes a bite of the sweet treat. ]
We do have a bit more resources ever since the Earth Forces integrated the plant dome! Some businesses of theirs are opening shop, too. Wolfwood and I went to a gelato place before coming here and wow. Thirteen flavors? Not the same as the Underground, but it's something.
I'm sure it's nothing you can't handle, Vash the Stampede.
[ a bit teasingly. but honestly, livio is too much of a pushover to not give them everything at once if they give him puppy eyes or any equivalent, so someone else will have to take charge ]
[ he seems happy vash likes his donuts though. yay donuts ]
Gelato... here? Wow, that's incredible!
[ he never thought something like that would be possible ]
[ In the playful and melodramatic tone that these kids would rob him of his lunch money, if he had any. He does love playing with kids, though, but the sugar is likely not appreciated by their parents.
... What they don't know won't hurt them! Anyway, yay donuts. Vash talks after he takes another bite, polite for once in not talking with his mouth full. ]
Yeah! Gelato—well, not here in the colony. [ ... ] But why not in the colony? Maybe I should tell them to figure out gelato.
[ Livio... Is a good boy... Why can't Wolfwood be as nice to him like Livio? Vash thinks this because he can hear the same teasing in Wolfwood's voice, but it's ANNOYING and MEAN. ]
You bet!
[ Vash agrees... And now that the colony isn't using most of their energy to beam S.O.S. messages into space, they can focus on other things like assisting those boarding to return to earth or make gelato. Just something for him to think about later, but he pats Livio's back a couple of more times. ]
Want to go see the kids first? Or should I show you to your room.

[ he knew vash was in hiding but has no concept of what he looked like as eriks. but he's ready to be supportive as always. ]
No, it's fine, I have it.... [ the food is a bit smushed with all the things livio's holding ] But are ya hungry? I have some snacks here...

[ a bit teasingly..... albeit probably the most gentle teasing vash has ever gotten in his life. this is truly as far as livio would go ]
If anyone could pull it off, they could. [ they are very smart here in the colony!! it's a whole different atmosphere. ]

T-Thanks...
[ there's definitely a hesitation when it comes to seeing the kids. livio's sure they would be scared of him. despite him bringing gifts. ]
.... Maybe my room first?
[ while he tries to figure out a way to drop off all his gifts and treats without the kids seeing him ]
