[ DON'T LIE, you know it would be nothing but a maze made out of halls of mirrors spaced with trees from which donuts grow with the real vash being a gigantic lightbulb at the center ]
Well, I have to admit, you were pretty wise about knowing what was happening when everything went dark like that.

"Knowing" me... I don't think you have to worry about that kind of thing.
Holly knows exactly how I like my tea and when the best time to make me some is. Maya can immediately tell when I'm having an off day—she once snuck into my room in the middle of the night with a box of donuts, because I took a bad shard. You know how to cheer me up in almost any situation, even if it's just a glass of juice and a touch of kindness. I can trust Panther and Wolfwood to have my back without needing to question it or look behind me. And everybody knows what I like to eat.
[ because that's always her wish, tbh, and here... there's nothing but honesty. ]
But I'm glad that you know that we love you in our small ways, too.
[ at this moment, a young lion comes trotting in through an unusually large cat door. it's wearing a magenta pink collar, and the mane growing int above its head is oddly spiked. it looks a little bit doofy with all of those spots still on it--but then, that shouldn't surprise anybody, should it? ]
[ on the lion's collar are a series of tags in the shapes of hearts, like so: ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ and at the very front, just in front of the purple tag is a silver one with the name VASH engraved on it ]
I had a guess, but it seemed kinda conceited, so, y'know...
[ He bends down to gently ruffle the tiger with the FRANKLY FANTASTIC hair fashion, and catches a glimpse of the collar as he does so. He gently turns it to take in all the hearts, smiling fondly. ]

Re: TRUE HEART
Nah, I'm just a wise guy who says wise things. I'm the picture of sageliness.
