    Summary

    "How many times have they hurt you? How many times have they betrayed you? How many times have they lied to you? Treated you like an animal? Stolen that which was dearest to you? Questioned your every word? Laughed as they dragged you through the dirt?"

    During one of countless attempts to track down Knives in the decades after the brothers parted ways, Vash meddles in the wrong man's business and gets dragged off the map.

    Summary

    In the wake of what Luida is calling the “arm incident” Vash isolates himself. She’s watching years worth of carefully maintained trust and care shatter in one fell swoop. The boy, once happy, talkative and hyper is now a solemn thing that prefers spending time in bed or curled in the Thomas stables. Luida sighs as she peers through the glass door into the stables where their birds have all migrated to the little crater Vash has carved out for himself. He lies in a ball of red fabric in synthetic straw, back against his favorite of the flock. Wendy is the Thomas Vash has ridden for a few years, she’s as protective of and loyal to Vash as he is to her. Even now she has her neck curled around Vash’s shoulders.

    Summary

    Mydei grabbed the antiseptic and dabbed it on a cloth like he knew what he was doing. He did not know what he was doing. “Tell me if it hurts.”

    “I’ll scream.”

    Mydei presses it to the wound.

    Phainon screams.
