['Wanted Criminal' makes Pure Vanilla arch an eyebrow, but his expression is amused and he hides his smile behind his cup a little. Though it's obviously there by the way his face crinkles, and there's a faint giggle underlying his words. Of course he does believe him, but he might tease a little, since they've established they're friends.]

Of course, mistaken identity. It happens often?

[The fact Vash knows Sparkling isn't a surprise, Sparkling is friends with everyone, and he feels proud of the fact. It's only fitting, the other Cookie is beyond charming. Pure Vanilla's head tilts a little to 'bio-domes', and he images a greenhouse. A place of life in amongst a barren land. It's lovely in his minds eye, even if he's slowly beginning to lose the details of what things look like.

And his expression is downright tender as he images Vash doing his best to help. Through all his perceived flaws, through mistake identity and being wanted... he keeps trying to help.]

[He smiles in memory to his own arrival, and how strange it was for a few months after. Crossing his legs at the knee, he settles his cup on one, beaming as a thought comes to him.]

I assume this means you have never experienced ice?

[Winter is coming...]
