    Summary

    Meryl looked away, paused, and then cleared her throat. "This doesn't change how…how I feel about you."

    The words shocked Milly. She'd braced herself for Meryl to react out of fear—disgust, even. Not whatever this was. As she looked closer, she could see that Meryl was now blushing furiously.

    How I feel about you.

    Why did that make it sound like… But, no. Surely not. People didn't feel those kinds of things for her. The conviction that it could not be true made her bold, made her press the issue.

    "And…and how do you feel about me?"

     

    Through a series of unfortunate events, Milly accidentally outs herself as trans to Meryl. However, Meryl’s reaction isn’t what she expects. Fluff ensues!

    "I wasn't sure you were coming back tonight."

    "What, ya missed me that much?" He says with a laugh.

    Meryl opens her mouth to respond, but the tears renew themselves before she can manage to speak. Her shoulders shake as all of the feelings she's been holding back finally come pouring out.

    "Oh. Oh, shit," Wolfwood says, voice dropping with concern. "You were bein' serious."

    Summary

    Qifrey will teach them everything he can, for as long as he’s still here. He’ll protect them with everything he has. He’ll make sure they’ll never want for a home or a meal or a smile or a gentle word. It’s what a good professor would do for his students.

    But the idea of being a father

    A seamstress mistakes professor and apprentice for father and daughter, and Qifrey grapples with the concept of parenthood.

    Summary

    Milly has gotten into the habit of worrying about her superior.

    Well, it has long since been known to her that Meryl would rather her not view her in that way. They’ve traveled together far too long for Milly to call her ‘Ma’am’ anymore. Honestly, she feels that she’s close enough to her not to, and she’s been referring to her as Meryl for quite some time now. But she’s gotten herself into the habit of viewing Meryl as her superior anyhow, as an ideal. Meryl’s independence, while so shocking and even a bit offensive to her when they first met, has become a quality Milly can say that she admires. This makes it all the more worrying that Milly is looking after her now. Meryl’s always done a wonderful job at taking care of herself, for such a young woman with a disadvantageous stature. And yet, Milly is carrying her on her back, as Meryl rambles drunkenly.

    Summary

    ”Hey, shortstack. . . can we come in?”

    Wolfwood’s voice comes muffled from behind the door. He and Vash have been bickering outside the bathroom where Meryl closed herself in, urgently whispering back and forth. She can’t understand most of what they’re saying, but it isn’t difficult to guess it has something to do with the blood on the handle and the hole in her side.

    Or, getting shot puts Meryl in a position she hasn't prepared for.

    Summary

    Especially with the hustle and bustle the holidays bring, Vash and Wolfwood were two much-needed seasonal hires for the fashion shop. And who was Wolfwood kidding, he also thought of this job as an excuse to hang around Vash more often, to see his boyfriend and sneak kisses in the stockroom throughout the day, breaking apart when they would hear the incoming echoes of Knives’ loafers or Elendira’s heels on the tile floor.

    Summary

    Not that he’s really thought about that. They haven’t talked about what they’re going to do after this; they haven’t talked about much of anything at all. Meryl fought tooth and nail when she realised Wolfwood was taking them both away from the heart of the conflict. She stopped fighting about a mile out, when the impact of the great blast finally hit them, a sonic boom so loud they felt it down to the soles of their feet. From there, it was back to the ruins with the hopes of finding the man who brought them together in the first place, but that had been a largely silent endeavour. Unsuccessful, too.

    They found Vash’s jacket, eventually, buried under a piece of rubble, somehow untorn despite the damage it had endured. No wonder Vash could live so recklessly. His coat was bulletproof. Didn’t mean a whole lot when he’d probably been vaporised while wearing it, but the coat itself was a neat relic. Wolfwood had handed it off to Meryl with the implicit request that she not take it out in front of him; he doesn’t really deserve to look at it.

    Since, Meryl hasn’t spoken. It’s uncharacteristic of her.

    Summary

    They have their fights, but the challenges that Wolfwood poses in those moments are all targeted and impersonal. Revealing, yes, but not if you don’t know how to look. Vash prides himself in not coming across as someone who knows how to look. If Wolfwood isn’t being playful or absentminded, and it doesn’t seem he is from his posture, then…

    “...I haven’t thought about it very much,” Vash admits, a more serious answer now to honour Wolfwood’s more serious question. “I used to, when I was younger.”

    “So decades ago?”

    “Haha.” Yes, decades. “It’s the sort of thing I think every man ends up pondering in his lifetime. Not so weird, right? Especially when you see so much death… but you know, I’ve never been the type to do anything out of a fear of consequences. Whatever is waiting for me after all’s said and done, I want to do good for the sake of it, because people deserve it. Not because there might be a Heaven waiting for me.”

    Wolfwood shifts his weight; the balcony railing creaks as he does. “‘S the exact kinda idealistic answer a guy like you would have to offer.”

    ---

    Vash and Wolfwood discuss theology, choice, and doing better.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    I love how well this series fills in canon and makes something that would normally be clunky (making the lyrics of the show dialogue) into something so natural and believable. I straight up cried several times reading these pieces. Marvin's internalized homophobia and his struggle against forcing Whizzer into gender norms is handled particularly well and such a nice supplement to the text. I've reread these more than once and will definitely do so again.
