    Summary

    Wolfwood ignores his gripe. “You’ve been moving weird all day. What happened? Are you hiding an injury? Spill it,” he adds, when Vash starts to speak. Vash shuts his mouth with a telltale click, then lets out a huff, giving Wolfwood a particularly grumpy look as he turns around and begins the tedious process of unbuttoning his duster. Rather than continue to push, Wolfwood folds his arms across his chest and waits. Taps his foot, even. He’s fine with being obnoxious about this, so long as he gets results. Vash very rarely gives unless you needle him a little. Lucky that Wolfwood’s so good at needling.

    Finally, Vash drops his arms and allows his jacket to slide to the floor. The cause of his discomfort is immediate evident. White feathers have sprung over his exposed back, the length of his non-prosthetic arm, peeking out from the neck of his shirt. They bulge from his pants, his long, strappy boots. As Vash turns to face him again, Wolfwood sees that quills are even peeking out on his cheeks, unfurling before his very eyes as Vash gives him this incredibly miserable wet cat look, folding his arms across his stomach.

    Wolfwood helps Vash alleviate a little feather-related discomfort.

    Summary

    “...Oh, but Mr. Vash, if what you’d rather have is a quiet evening tonight after your bath, that’s okay. You are my family, but it’s whatever you feel like doing, since it is your birthday. Don’t feel like you have to celebrate it in any particular way.”

    Millie’s sweet. The reality is, if any of them tried to “force” a celebration on him—not that they would—Vash would probably make a clean and quick getaway. He’s not above just splitting if the situation gets hairy… Even these days, in this life, where he’s trying to get a little bit better at staying. The consequences of getting overwhelmed are just too steep (for others and also for Vash himself) to risk it, these days.

    Thinking about it, though, Vash isn’t sure how to answer Millie because he just doesn’t know what he wants. The bath, he’s pretty sure about. Vash is pretty hyperaware of his water usage, so he never takes baths, and will be happy to indulge tonight. His achy joints will be even happier. His specialty donut is also a given.

    What Vash knows for sure that he wants, otherwise, isn’t something he can have.

    Summary

    “How do two grown men not have eight hundred double dollars between them?!”

    “Wha—” Vash was averting Meryl’s eyes, which was frankly ridiculous considering he had sought her out for help in the first place, “Meryl! The economy is in shambles!”

    The economy was decidedly not in shambles.

    Summary

    “‘So, what am I s’posed to look out for? Sinners? Signs and wonders? The devil themself, lurkin’ ’round the corner to lure me into a life’a degeneracy?’

    The expression of the stranger in white lights up like Wolfwood has presented him with the most wondrous gift.

    ‘Very glad you asked. Angels, sir! Real life angels! Well, you’re most likely to know them under the colloquial term Plant, but that is so... technical, don’t you think? Unbearably plain. It is divinity made flesh we are talking about, after all!’”

    In which some people worship Plants as angels of salvation and Nicholas D. Wolfwood comes to regret not making this particular cult his problem sooner rather than never.
