[Thankfully (for him), Vash is nice and comfortable in his house, thank you very much.]

( he survives death by pillow launched at mach speed* from the second story window of the inn another day.

( there's no response for a long while and then: )

i don't like how friendly you are with me when i've been nothing but awful to you. it makes me feel worse about it, but it also feels like how people who hurt me have lied to me before.

let me earn it. but also, try to get mine. it's not something i do easily.

[Vash also takes a moment to respond. When he does, his handwriting is a bit more rigid — like he's really focusing on his end.]

look, starshine. i can promise to try. but here's the problem with all of that. i'm treating you like i'd treat just about everyone else. you can ask anyone around the grove. i spent several days playing pranks on gnosis and being silly with him. i've palled up with pure vanilla and shared a pizza slice with him because we only had one hand between us.

the world is cold and mean. i know it better than anyone else, i'll bet. which is why i try to give just a little bit of warmth and kindness in everything i do.

like i said. i can try to reign it back. but while i'm doing that for you, can you do something for me? can you try and see things from my perspective?

( it IS cold, which is precisely why she can't trust this treatment. but


it's enough for right now. there's no response but she lets her peach-sugarglider leave a pawprint in ink to show she sees it. )
