Summary
“My business is the pursuit of peace and love,” Vash says. Nicholas lets out a loud bray of laughter. “What?!"
Nicholas snickers, not even bothering to attempt politeness any longer. “Love and peace is a funny pursuit when you share a name with a man that’s shot so many bullets he’s earned sixty thousand Union dollars on his head."
Vash cocks his head at Nicholas, and his eyes wander down to the gun at Nicholas’ hip before flicking back upwards. “Ah, but Father,” he says piously, “I’m sure you know first-hand how the path of peace requires much of us all.”
Nicholas narrows his eyes and wishes for a cigar. Vash stares back with wide, innocent eyes. It’s infuriating; it’s delicious; it makes Nicholas want to prod at him until he finds what’s hidden underneath. Anybody could be fooled by that face, by that careful expression, by that deliberate and rehearsed body language, but Nicholas wasn’t anybody, and he wasn’t fooled.

Summary
“I’m sorry,” Vash says finally, without meeting Wolfwood’s eyes. “That you have to deal with … all this.”
“I’m sorry, too,” Wolfwood grumbles. “Since you’re bitchin’ more than usual. Layin’ yourself all flat and apologetic—skeeves me the hell out.”
Vash blinks, the eyes on his arms blinking with him, and his silence turns a little chagrined.

Summary
“I’m dreaming, and dreaming about you, that’s all,” Cliopher informed me. “For one, I don’t believe in fate, or destiny. Second of all, you’re dressed like Fitzroy Angursell, and that’s clearly not right.” Oh, but this really was dangerous, for you and for me. “Third of all, if this is real I’m probably going to get executed tomorrow for the really very egregious etiquette violations I’ve already committed, and I would prefer not to be.”
“Nobody’s executing you,” you said sharply. You were not going to let anyone. Not Cliopher Mdang, your competent, intrepid, unpolished secretary. (Your soulmate.)
“You see?” Cliopher said. “Unrealistic. Definitely a dream.”
