Vash’s expression sobered ever so slightly. Just as he feared, not a single person reacted to his name in the slightest. On top of that, Ba’al went on to explain that Earth was home to the 7 billion people it [i]used[/i] to inhabit. Humans left Earth; that was a fact. Or at least, it was a fact where Vash came from. A thought hit him, then - time travel maybe? Plausible given everything else that had happened, but still not a great explanation for all the strange people and creatures surrounding him - unless Earth really was this bizarre and Rem just neglected to include quite a few details. 

Liking the idea of scouting the area, Vash already planned on joining Ba’al’s team, but found even more incentive to join their group when he found out that Asphyxious planned on going, as well. “I guess I’ll tag along with you guys!” Vash chirped, hurrying along behind the two of them. He didn’t get a good vibe from the lich guy, and decided it was best to keep an eye on him. On top of that, he [i]did[/i] agree with the notion of exploring the place and hopefully finding some answers. “Oh! When we’re done exploring that tall building, we should probably search for the local Power Plant, too.” he spoke up, hoping to find a Plant he could communicate with and hopefully learn some things from. He didn’t spot any large, bulb-like structure on the horizon, as was typical where he came from, but he figured any Plant could easily be obscured by the tangled mess of buildings. [i]…Assuming there is a Plant.[/i] he thought a bit grimly, not really wanting to know how any place could survive without his sisters providing everyone power. This place was definitely weird but he still hoped for something familiar to cling to.
