[ the pained expression on their face as wolfwood recontextualizes things for them makes him wonder just what sort of thing is he making them think about this time? wolfwood’s not ignorant that much of what they stand on opposite sides of an argument with deal with how they can’t quite understand things from wolfwood’s angle, and the moment that they realize that, they become upset. sometimes it’s anger, sometimes it’s frustration, and sometimes it’s like this.
he hears what they have to say and there’s a saying that he has overheard a few times but will never put to words himself: “better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all”. honestly, it seemed to be one of the functioning principles that vash lived by. …to his detriment.
perhaps that’s why wolfwood is particularly cruel when he turns the scenario back on void archives. they’ve spoken to great lengths of the value of having more time with vash and how important it was. but they have a perspective that wolfwood doesn’t have. he knows there’s an end to his life. ]
Yer the expert in what’s good for someone who doesn’t have a known end to their lifespan. I just know that I’ve seen him cry over people who have died long before I was born. Every face he meets and every name he learns—he’ll remember.
[ and because of that, wolfwood has seen how lightly vash can live around certain people. how badly he wants to get close to people but is afraid on it because of how brief their lives are compared to his. oh if only wolfwood could have been subjected to that treatment instead of being clung to with desperate fingers after being unable to push him away. ]
How many memories can one human give someone who could live for thousands of years for it to be enough? [ a completely unfair question to ask of them and wolfwood takes it back. ] Don’t bother answerin’ that. Whatever it is, it isn’t enough.
