I so nearly made it two within a month

but that was realistically never going to happen.

Duality

The sequel to Need, as requested by mistressrenet. Or maybe not as requested, but it's what she got anyway.
W/V, NC-17, swearing, blah, blah, blah.

You make me hurt. I'm all ouch and in shock at the reveal at the end with Legato and and and...gah ::wibbles:: superhot but fantastically ...smooth. clicked oddly into a sort of space with each other and it's so fucking transient. "his own personal Judas" WAH. love that, love the whole thing. Thank you

[tiggymalvern.livejournal.com]

Yeah, sorry for sticking the ouch in there. I just can't seem to let these guys be happy without dropping something unpleasant on them. Nasty habit I seem to have picked up from canon, because just everything between the two of them is too fucking transient *sniff*.

but they are so beautiful with the hurt.

I'll have you know that I had the following songs playing while I read this. The songs came on at simutaneously the worst and best times because it's like, GUTPUNCH.

Alive

_{Ain't it good to breathe the air
Another spin around the sun
On this spec of life in the universe
A little piece of life in everyone
Ain't it good to be alive?
Ain't it good to be alive?
To feel the sun strong against your face
It spills over me like the milky way}

Fine Again

<sub>It seems like every day’s the same
and I’m left to discover on my own
It seems like everything is gray
and there’s no color to behold
They say it’s over and I’m fine again, yeah
Try to stay sober feels like I’m dying here

And I am aware now of how
everything’s gonna be fine one day
Too late, I’m in hell I am prepared now,
seems everyone’s gonna be fine
One day too late, just as well

I feel the dream in me expire
and there’s no one left to blame it on
I hear you label me a liar
‘cause I can’t seem to get this through
You say it’s over, I can sigh again, yeah
Why try to stay sober when I’m dying here</sub>

...and you really need to hear these 'cause...yeah

yeah, it fits your fic so perfectly. ::tears:: just...yeah. especially Fine Again with the way the manga ended? 'cause shit.

Damn, aren't they just.

You know there are Trigun AMVs to both those songs available at amv.org? And I love them both, because they're not technically outstanding or anything, but just gutpunchy. But then it's not hard to make an emotional AMV about how much it sucks to be Vash. The first one's by Premonition Studios, the second one's by Josiah-X.

There's another too by Lord Byron Productions to So Far Away by Stain'd that gets me on exactly that same level. Ack, I could list quite a few more too, but it's so dependent on musical taste whether that kind of thing works or not.

[permetaform]

XD that's hilarious! I actually had both of them playing in the background. The Fine Again with the Wolfwood POV makes more sense to me thematically so I like that better tho storywise the Vash POV vid to that song is a bit stronger.

[tiggymalvern.livejournal.com]

Yeah - I kept both copies of 'Fine Again', but I watch the Vash one more often because I like the way it holds together better as a narrative. Plus, I get kind of bored of Wolfwood vids because they all use the same damn footage.

I spent basically 3 solid days downloading and watching Trigun vids from that site to make sure I didn't miss anything decent. I kept 28 of them.

And no, I'm not obsessive at all. Honest.

[permetaform]

oooooo! Wanna compare notes? do you have AIM? Or we can just do it over email or LJ...I think I have maybe 12 or 14 but I've deleted aLOT too...

[tiggymalvern.livejournal.com]

Give me some time to get my thoughts together and look through the vid list and I'll email you.

[permetaform]

=) sounds good.
