I know. [ she stays here a moment, head on his shoulder. i think she's tall enough to reach his shoulder. ]

I think I know how to let people in now. Some of you won't give up anyway.

[ I believe in her, but Vash would definitely lower himself if she isn't. ]

Some of us are big pests. It's a problem.

[ashmark]

It really is. I'm supposed to suffer alone, and you're ruining it.

[piteous]

Hey, that's me, too!

[ the solitary sufferers is this team. ]

[ashmark]

Stop it. [ giving him another gentle squeeze. ] We can't both suffer alone together, that defeats the purpose.

[piteous]

It's kind of funny to imagine, don't you think? Same warehouse, different corners of the room, just suffering silently.

[ He laughs a little... Relieved, happy, even though there's still some sadness as an undercurrent. They survived, against all odds. Might not mean much, but emotionally that is a lot. ]

We're still here.

[ashmark]

Like I'd let you get away with that. I hate being alone. I'd have to suffer right next to you or I wouldn't let you suffer at all.

[ they're still here. something something, this should be a blessing. it's kind of a complicated feeling. ]

[piteous]

Wow, we're just a bundle of contradictions.

[ In the end, despite Vash being solitary in his own way, he loves company too much.

After a couple of moments, he lets go. ]

I shouldn't stop you from carrying out your day.
