[ and here it is: the disappointment that they feel towards wolfwood’s reasoning for what he had decided on. it’s not surprising anymore that it happens and wolfwood barely reacts to what they say—it’s a lecture with a core message that he has heard plenty of times already. “why are you giving up before you try?” “why resign yourself without trying?” and so many other variations of it. all things that wolfwood has been criticized for independent of void archives.
the irony, of course, is that the person who would nag wolfwood constantly about this was the most resigned about. whether he knew that or not didn’t really matter too much as it didn’t change things for when wolfwood flipped the argument around, he was also caught on his back foot. (god the two of them were hapless…) nevertheless, wolfwood is curious to know what they think if he had changed the angle of which they were approaching this. ]
Has it crossed yer mind to think about how the other guy is gonna react to all of this? [ wolfwood asks plainly and simply. ] Yer more or less aware of the kind of situation that I’m in…
[ they don’t know the finite details or the exact nuances that make up his situation and why wolfwood seemingly digs his heels into the ground whenever they try to suggest an alternative. they certainly don’t know anything about vash other than what they can infer, but wolfwood asks the question. ]
‘nd what? I just spring these feelin’s on him and expect things to go okay?
[ this isn’t some sort of romantic comedy or tale of romance. things aren’t as simple as confess feelings and receive positive outcome. wolfwood continues to give them further context to the situation he finds himself in. ]
That guy is the type to run away before allowing anyone to get too attached to him. [ and yet, it’s clear that the two of them have become impossibly attached to one another. wolfwood isn’t ignorant to that. ] But if ya want to split hairs over this then fine—I wouldn’t say anythin’ sooner to him than I would now.
He has plenty enough on his shoulders than my feelings being thrown into all of that.
