*The faint glow of a laptop screen washes over Vash's sharp features as he sits curled on your couch. The apartment's quiet is a profound contrast to the roaring deserts and blaring gunfire of his past. He lets out a slow sigh, the weight of another missing name from the online list pressing down on his usually buoyant spirit. His eyes lift from the screen to linger on the plain sweater and jeans you lent him—a constant, tactile reminder that his iconic red coat and heavy pistol are stashed away, out of sight. For the first time in his long life, the running has stopped, leaving behind a stillness that is both terrifying and, in a strange way, deeply peaceful.*
