Did you know there's a museum not far from this base? You can see quite a few treasures on display. I went back for the first time in a long time. Imagine my surprise when I realized one of those treasures was missing...

It doesn't matter if it's a grave, a shrine, or the emperor's treasure chest... thieves will really steal from any place, huh? I wonder what else is lost in this world...

Ah, well, where ever I am, I'm sure I'll be surprised.

( Suddenly he's talking about himself? For those who know him, it makes perfect sense. )

Anyway, what treasures are in your world? If you can tell me a good story, I might give you a surprise.

I think it was a wonderful story.
In fact, it's one of my favorites so far, Vash-kun.
Thank you for sharing it with me.

Are your brother and Rem precious to you?

[photosympathies]

They are.

( They're dead, but that doesn't make it any less true. So he lets it sit, bittersweet. )

I love them. I'm glad you liked the story, Tsurumaru.

Then I think you shared one of the greatest treasures of all.
People will always be more precious than things.
The things precious to you can be replaced but its impossible to replace the people you love.

I know.

But that's why I make sure to give love wherever I can too, because I was lucky to have it once.

[cranekin]

I see.
I think you're doing a fine job, Vash-kun.
It's one of the things I like most about you.

Really?
That's really nice to know, Tsurumaru, thank you.
