Summary
Essek watches the snowflakes dance through the air with lazy elegance; they land delicately and settle on his cloak, white blotting out the dark, one flake at a time. He should get up. If he stays like this much longer, he will be buried, and no one will ever find his body.

Summary
By the time they reach the city gates, Wolfwood is feeling noticeably out of sync with his body. The long, dancing double shadows cast ahead of them by the setting suns certainly aren’t helping, but the telltale numbness creeping into his tongue and fingertips warns him that he doesn’t have too long before the serum’s toll comes calling. He thinks he’ll make it, though; he just has to get Vash settled in some lodgings and bring back some takeout, and he’ll be all set to weather whatever the evening has in store.

(Or: we know Wolfwood can *survive* multiple doses of serum in the Stampede timeline, but there can still be Consequences™️.) -

Summary
It just doesn’t make any goddamn sense. He knows the Humanoid Typhoon can dodge—he’s seen the man dance through a hail of bullets like a fucking ballerina and come out of it with barely a scratch. But *one* cop with a sob story lined up a clearly telegraphed shot from a dozen yards away and Blondie just stood there and took it. Turned around and walked away like it was nothing.
(Short drabble; Wolfwood's train of thought between Vash getting shot and their conversation in the sewer in episode 10.)

Summary
Time travelers who plan to kill Superman never account for Martha Kent in their plans. She may not be the World's Finest, but she's a mother with a shotgun, and all told that might be scarier.

Summary
Now, that breath catches, stuttering over itself. It stops, and then Vash wimpers, curling in on himself, forcing his knees tighter to his chest. He mumbles something, desperate, a plea, an apology, calls out “Rem!” with ragged vocal chords.
Wolfwood sits up. He hasn’t seen this happen to Vash before, but he’s dealt with enough nightmares in his time. “Hey, c’mon, Spikey, wake up.” His voice is raspy with sleep as he puts a hand on Vash’s shoulder, shaking it, and-
Vash whips up, prosthetic hand grabbing Wolfwood’s wrist so hard he feels the bones grinding together. His eyes are open, blank and staring, wide enough that the whites shine in the moonlight, and his grip tightens even further.

Summary
Lina playfully nudges at Vash with her shoulder, which barely clears his elbow, and Vash tilts his head away until Wolfwood can’t see his expression through the fall of his hair. Wolfwood feels his skin crawl with the urge to…to do something. Put a hand against Vash’s chest to double-check that his heart still beats inhumanly fast. Push his fingers through yellow hair so he can see blue skies again. Grab Vash by the shoulders and yell, scream, demand, Why did you leave?
“A blessing,” Wolfwood echoes mildly, and takes a sip of water.
(Or: Two years after Knives assaulted Vash and Vash destroyed both Knives and JuLai, Wolfwood’s search for Vash ends in a small, backwoods little church with a young woman and a seemingly amnesiac man. Legato isn’t far behind.)

Summary
Wolfwood carries a body.
Vash is a walking death wish. A race between self-sacrifice and skill, and in all Wolfwood’s shitty years on this shit-ass planet he’s never met a man with so much of each.
So maybe Vash taking a bullet to the head for him shouldn’t have been a surprise.
