    Summary

    Vash and Wolfwood take on a job: fix a stranger's car on the edge of a desert town, collect the money, and move on. They work in near silence, talking only about bolts and wiring, both pretending that everything is normal — except that nothing has been normal for a long time. When the sun begins to tip toward the horizon, Wolfwood asks a simple question about the future, and it slowly turns into a conversation about what kind of person you'd want beside you. Before either of them realizes it, they're both dangerously close to saying out loud what neither of them has dared to say before.

    Summary

    “That’s quite the scowl you’re wearing,” the bartender says, the same dirty sunshine casting itself across the bridge of his nose. “Your drink ain’t to your liking?”

    “Drink’s fine,” he replies, and neither of them mention that it’s only half empty. “But I’m hoping you can help me with something.” He hates having to get to this part—in any other trip around this rock, it’s nothing but noise. It’s more work avoiding information. And yet, no one so far had said anything, had known anything— “I’m looking for someone.”

    Around him, the story is taking its traditional shape against his shoulders, creaking at the edges like the premonition of a storm through the woods. It doesn’t fit him, he thinks. It hasn’t fit him in a long time.

    Nicholas places his sunglasses on the bartop, arching one eyebrow as the bartender watches him, glancing toward his glass of watered-down whiskey. The ice had melted an hour ago. “The town’s a big place. I’m guessing you haven’t had any luck so far.”

    “No,” Nicholas tells him, pushing aside his glass. “But he’s hard to miss. He’s blonde, hair like needles, with a doofy face, probably some shades he wears. Usually wears red. Causes problems by breathing."

    Summary

    Wolfwood’s palm landed on Vash’s forehead, heavy and warm and edged with the sharp bite of calluses.

    The world went white.

    Vash had learned long ago that time was different for humans. They needed nearly a quarter of a second to react to anything, and Vash had fundamentally shifted his systems to stay aligned to that, because life got boring fast when everything moved slower than you. But the weight of Wolfwood’s hand on his forehead opened up the gulf between the click of the second hand, and Vash was falling, falling, falling, through endless milliseconds of blinding light as a bell tone rang in his bones and started to vibrate outwards--

    Deep inside Vash, a door labeled NICHOLAS D. WOLFWOOD opened to let a spark through, one unmistakably flavored with cigarette smoke and gunpowder and all-encompassing guilt. A soul with a direct line to his. A connection between two fucked up points.

    Summary

    Vash goes through another life. He's done it enough to be pretty good at it, these days. They're getting easier, even if "easier" means a string of murders while trying to make friends anew. Not his usual bullet-ridden trouble, but this is meant to be a kinder, gentler life, after all.
