What can you take from a corpse? Its clothes?
Its dignity? Its heart?
Nothing that it needs, now
the act of taking is made useless by death.

You want him to leave something behind. A lighter,
maybe. A pack of cigarettes you'll smoke
when you miss him.
A rosary to keep around your wrist.

You leave the desert knowing the only thing he left for you
is you.

He can feel himself regressing back to that angry motherless child. The one that wanted to hurt as much as he was hurting. It was something he always had to be careful with. Humans, with their fragile bodies, could never take the brunt of his wrath, nor would they deserve to. But Nai is no human. He's an abomination, just like him — they're the two halves of God's greatest atrocity.

And they bring out the absolute worst in each other.

And yet
And *yet*
Despite the pain
Despite the empty sky above
Despite the weight of heavy limbs
How can you not look up
And reach for the stars?
How can you not see that light
And see it shining in the eyes of others?
How can you have a soul
And not see the value in another?
I'm alone on this planet
Isolated
Trapped
By a body of my own making
By a mind of my own demons
But isn't that the beauty
And the burden?

“Next time,” Vash says slowly, eyes watching his own fingers wrap the last of the bandages around Wolfwood's wrist, “ask me. I'll take care of you.”

“It's rotten work,” Wolfwood replies, exhaling deeply. The smoke dances in the dying light coming through the tiny window, swirling and floating before it completely dissipates. It's not completely gone, just invisible to the naked eye. He wonders if he was referring to taking care of his injuries, or to himself.

But Vash takes it in stride, like he always does. He smiles and says, “Not to me.”

He has to believe he’ll see him again, that the tank will take him wherever Nico was stolen off to, that past the pain and push-ups, all his persistence will pay off in their eventual reunion, somewhere without hard bloodstained floors and harsh interior light, another place with an open sky instead of a skyscraper’s obfuscated innards, where any smoke he smells is a source of reassurance instead of trepidation, a reminder of his newfound home as opposed to homesickness, where the suffering will all have been worthwhile if it means he’ll have him back.

He has to catch up.

Post-canon fix-it Trigun Vashwood fanart. A traditional watercolor painting of Wolfwood with teal plant markings across his body, embraced from behind by Vash, who has red plant markings in turn. Vash's prosthetic arm matches the teal. The canvas is filled with floral imagery as well as wings. Vash is now part of a tree-like structure with its roots descending down the piece, covered in flowers & feathers; the tree trunk is the trunk of his body, & large petals with delicate pen markings extend to surround Wolfwood as Vash rests his forehead on his shoulder. Wolfwood's eyes are closed, his posture at ease.

It overlaps another watercolor piece; saturated rainbow flowers & flames are faintly distinguishable.

“Go ahead. I'm all yours,” Wolfwood whispers, a hair's breadth from Vash's ear. As soon as it leaves his lips, it registers as the most intimate thing he's ever said to Vash. Instead of wanting to take it back, he's glad he got it out. It's the truth, after all, and has been since... well, probably since the first time he saw Vash's real smile.

For a moment, he thinks Vash has him figured out, his heart torn from his chest to beat openly in Vash's hands, since the first thing Vash does is kiss him, hitched deep with desperation.

Trigun fanart of Vash the Stampede winking as he playfully falls backward and kicks one foot high into the air with an action starburst for effect. The piece has bright, bold colors combined with screentones; teal and hot pink lines draw the viewer's eye through the composition, dotted with matching stars. From the muzzle of his gun radiates a teal accent that calls to mind a crosshair or lens flare. The word STAMPEDE is written along the axis in matching teal. The overall effect is a fun poster of a hero.

Specks of regret, confusion, fear, and chaos
form a tornado, and I am the eye of the storm.

because it's something wild, disobedient,
won't lie down neatly and fold its paws
when there is a fire burning in it,
begging to run.
they stuffed it behind the bars because
how can any of us trust a creature like that?
sniffing around the campsite with dangerous teeth
that glint in the moonlight,
crossing the sands with an endless hunger
that threatens us with our greatest fear:
that we will be made to care, to atone,
that we will see the wicked stains we've smeared across this land
that you will ask of us: do better
that you will ask of us: forgive
and even as we lock you away once more,
you're forgiving us for this, too.

and when the silence comes,
you'll find it stays longer -
my nails find the indent
of a wound weeping.
My head against cold glass
is the only way I find comfort
when the silence burns
like salt in my wound.

paints a chilling story,
reading far too much into it,
I'll file it away for later.
