I need advice!
( Hello network, here's your friendly neighbourhood Stampede about to fully launch into something with no forewarning and no introductions. It's how he makes friends ... and also enemies, don't worry. ) So, we have to get jobs, right? But I'm not exactly sure what I'd be good at. I usually just do whatever people need around the towns I'm visiting, which means I know a little of most things. But I figured this place was new and people might be a little more cautious about that. So I made flyers!
( In one hand - metal, blue sometimes sea green - Vash holds up a stack of leaflets. )
Only when I was trying to give them out I got a lot of dirty looks so can someone tell me what I've done wrong! I really want to be useful while I'm here.
( Turning the flyer around so that his ( unfortunate ) captive audience can see. The design is obviously home made, and probably in a rush. On the paper it proudly proclaims
VASH THE STAMPEDE
RENT BOY
WILL DO WHATEVER YOU NEED
COST: ???
Below that is a crude drawing of the man himself - a stick figure with a triangle body ( his coat, sadly missing ) and a mass of spiky hair. It has a crude beaming smile on the circle of a face. )
Is it the drawing? I could have done better I guess, but I was in a hurry. ( A pause, a slow dawning realisation. ) Aw, shoot. It's the name, right? I didn't use my civilian name! Crap, that's probably a no-no.
( Nothing else could be the issue.
... Right? )

who says they don't?
( Champion of the People, Vash the Stampede, ready to fight. )
i don't really mind bad pay as long as i'm doing something useful. i don't really need money for anything much beyond food, right? they gave me some for the crabs and that's already more than i had before so i'm good on that front!
no subject
okay.
why, though?
why do men wear corsets? give me one good reason and then i'll be convinced you're not lying to me.
no subject
He takes a little longer to reply this time, mostly because his brain is helpfully not supplying a single thought. Saying to look cute feels vapid and in all fairness, Vash hasn't met many men in clothes like that. But there have been some. Usually the town outcasts ... )
maybe because they want to??
why do men wear shirts? it's just clothing.
( And then, entirely too late, and with far too much enthusiasm because his compression suit is kind of like a corset, right? )
posture!!! back support!!!
