    Summary

    Wolfwood took his hands away. Holy shit. His whole body buzzed, his mind struggling to make sense of what just came into his head - like trying to grasp a dream after you just woke up, the incoherency of thought as you drift to sleep.

    Vash flinched. “Told you.” Wolfwood felt guilty, but more than that, he felt stubborn. He grabbed Vash’s hands.

    “Again,” Wolfwood asked. “I’m not going to stop as soon as I don’t understand. This is about learning about you, Spikey, and sometimes not even humans really get each other.”

    Summary

    I never want to let him go, Vash realizes, and his teeth drag over his lip as his fingers run down Wolfwood's jaw, and maybe it's the alcohol, or maybe it's not, but Vash lets the levee inside him break, and the flood of selfishness comes rushing in, but he can't stop smiling.

    "Marry me, Nicholas."

    Summary

    The most awkward thing about it all is the stupid Get Out smeared across the wall in bioluminescent garbage, along the far wall across from the entryway, prominent in its placement. Handprints are peppered beneath it, dragged down as if through blood. If it wasn’t so overstated, so fucking cliche, maybe it’d make his stomach turn—or maybe it wouldn’t. It’s hard to tell these days, the things that hit his hindbrain versus the things that don’t.

    “This,” Nicholas says, gesturing at the wall, “is embarrassing for the both of us.”

    The thing haunting the house doesn’t have a name that he knows, and Meryl hasn’t given one if she’s privy to the information. So it’s just the Haunt, and Nicholas, and the desert that’s hiding them both.

    The Haunt drags a hand-shaped force through the faintly glowing text, spiteful in its delivery. Underneath it, something else begins to come alive, the letters bigger, the strokes broader, two fingers wide instead of one.

    Get. Out. Underlined for emphasis. Circled to make a point. And beside it, a frowning face with angry eyebrows—a child’s threat.
