    Summary

    Wolfwood looked back, staring at where their hands met, eyes barely widening, but expression otherwise unreadable. Vash couldn’t say it, couldn’t bring himself to ask, the selfishness of it stung like bile in his throat. He couldn’t bear to let go, either. Any attempt at words just echoed through the chasm inside him, bouncing back on themselves until it was white noise, pointless and empty and lost. He swallowed. It was late. They were both exhausted, and he was keeping Wolfwood here in the cold.

    “…please.”

    Summary

    Vash returns by his side, flashing him an embarrassed smile. Seeing him naked in these circumstances is certainly preferable to the humiliating way he revealed himself in front of the whole town that welcomed him, but Wolfwood stays focused on Vash’s face, the sourness of those events still too heavy on his tongue to indulge in the sight.

    He’d wonder how a man’s self-worth can sink this low, if it wouldn’t be so hypocritical of him—and Vash didn't look like he cared, anyway.

    Summary

    Upon hearing his name being mentioned, the black-clad man merely tips his head in acknowledgement. “And Mr Wolfwood is …?” Vash begins, as if he’s supposed to recognise that strange man with his equally strange-looking crossbow. There’s a hint of a crucifix incorporated seamlessly into its prod and tiller, making the overall design look way bigger than the standard-shaped crossbow weaponry that archers normally wield.

    “Hunter,” the man drawls at once. He takes this as a cue to approach them with a laidback gait imbued with the right amount of poise that serves as a warning to the next fool looking for trouble. All at once, Vash knows better not to end up at the receiving end of his bad side. “Nicholas D. Wolfwood, at your service.”

     

    ------

    When magicless warlock Vash meets hunter Nicholas D. Wolfwood, he chalks it up as happenstance. It's not every day you meet a guy with the right amount of confidence and the perfect level of aim to take down creatures causing havoc. With werewolves attacking towns at random, Vash supposes it is only wise that they team up.

    But everyone else knows the story. After all, is anything with Nicholas D. Wolfwood by chance, ever?

    Summary

    Not everyone deserved saving. Certainly not those who were so damn keen on dying. If pointy-haired gunslingers with a God complex wanted to throw away their one golden shot at a life lived — bully for them, or whatever. Plenty of other sad sacks here would swarm into the vacancies that martyrs left behind. There’d be little weeping over it either.

    Not everyone deserved saving, so Wolfwood couldn’t say why his shoe was burning a hole in the footwell as the van pitched and jolted across the pitted desert sweep. Or why his hair was dripping sweat into his eyes, a knot of something like nausea balled up under his sternum.

    Vash gets more than a little hurt. Wolfwood patches him up.

    Summary

    He hates the way Vash is looking at him, the disbelief mixed with hope. He doesn’t deserve to have Vash gazing at him at all, not after what he’s done. “You really think that?” Vash whispers, and Wolfwood equally hates the fact he’d ever believe otherwise. “I’m helping make a difference?”

    He forces himself to meet Vash’s eyes again, keeping his voice as measured as he can. “It’s what you do, isn’t it?” he says, and there’s a hoarseness to it. “It’s what you always do.”

    Having accepted his death, Wolfwood instead struggles with the fact he survived and is forced to find a new purpose. It takes a village to raise a child, but a repenting priest and an immigrant space explorer to raise a whole orphanage.
