Yeah I think we're playing a game of hide the woofwoof dick. Also if you can't be arsed to make side characters, store brought is fine.
Livio is here because Meryl and Milly adopted him like a stray since he was having problems making ends meet at the orphanage. He's the "sound guy" and he's in charge of "acoustic checks". He's very good with the boom mic as a bludgeoning weapon.
an important principle of fandom (and life, actually) is that if you want more of Less Popular Thing, it is good to create positive spaces and events for it. however, if you use those spaces to take cracks at the More Popular Thing which you perceive as stealing oxygen from your Less Popular Thing, you do not increase the audience for Less Popular Thing. you decrease it, because you irk people who like both Things. and depending on the relative popularity, there are quite possibly more people who like both Things than people who only like Less Popular Thing. (not to mention - you kill your chances of recruiting people who like More Popular Thing but are neutral on or haven’t considered Less Popular Thing.)
you’re not campaigning for votes (where There Can Be Only One), you’re marketing for a share of people’s attention. don’t be petty. be effective.
lots of things can be read into Vash bonding with Wolfwood (older brother) and Nai's cult kidnapping and brainwashing younger children into total obedience (Wolfwood's younger brother) and Vash seeking out the company of humans who resemble his foster mother Rem Saverem and are characterized by a loving and nurturing personality. Vash likes motherly women (Rollo's mother, the mother in the first episode) and black haired humans whose most defining character traits are pacifism, idealism, compassion, protection and self-sacrifice (Luida, Meryl, Wolfwood) all traits that can be found in Rem. Wolfwood is what Vash wishes his brother was: someone still redeemable. A strong older brother who is protective of his younger siblings, someone who deeply cares and doesn't try to mask his violence as love. Livio is what ep 11/12 Nai wishes his brother was: an empty husk that only lives to realize Nai's ideals and does what he tells him to do without questioning anything. Even after living over hundred years apart from each other, they are still looking in others for some kind of replacement for the family they've lost.
