In the cover of the dark, Livio waited for Nick to settle the not-angel in the backseat and crawl in next to them. Livio drove slowly, taking each curve down the winding road gently, so as to not disturb them more than they had to, and to keep Nick’s stomach from jumping into his throat each time they drove past a cliffside. The heat that poured from the vents was nearly tangible, turning the air in the car humid, and leaving Nick miserable under his coat. But soon enough it did its job, and the angel moved in their sleep, curling in on themself and shivering as their body finally woke from the cold enough to save itself from it. Blood was smeared on the seats, dried on Nick’s skin and clothes. Downy feathers fluttered to the ground, and he knew that Livio would likely never rid the car of them entirely.

Or: a simple hike takes a drastic turn when Nick and Livio stumble across an injured angel alone in the woods.

Chapters: 3/5 Fandom: Trigun Stampede (Anime 2023) Rating: Teen And Up Audiences Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply Characters: Nicholas D. Wolfwood, Vash the Stampede (Trigun), Meryl Stryfe Additional Tags: Hurt/Comfort, Angst, Angst with a Happy Ending, Post-Episode: e12 High Noon at July (Trigun Stampede), Amnesia, Dissociation, hints of vashwood, maybe mashwood too, but Wolfwood is in no way ready to address it, Vash gets his Eriks era, Injury, Sharing a Bed, grieving for someone who’s still there Summary:

Vash was dead. Wolfwood didn’t realise at first, because the body they found was still breathing. There, crumpled in the center of the crater, bloodied and singed, nothing but the desolate grey of sand soft rubble in all directions, yet his chest rose and fell and when Wolfwood pressed his hand to it he could feel the weak flutter of a heartbeat beneath his shaking palm.

Idk if your still doing vashmeryl suggestions (or if this is too spicy) but Meryl kissing Vash’s scars maybe? Your art of them is amazing by the way

I might of gone a bit overboard with this one lmao

Fic rec for trigunfanficappreciation week because I don't think I've seen anyone else raving about it?

No Name on the Bullet by @yellowocaballero is probably one of my fave trigun fics, top quality role swap au with fantastic characterization. It manages to somehow be exciting, funny, and full of depth, more people need to check it out.

Summary:

Miracle on Gunsmoke! When the beloved angel Vash the Stampede visits the poor and downtrodden, hope follows in his wake. His mission may save humanity or destroy it, but only one thing is certain: that he's the most obnoxious brother of all time.

Meanwhile, travelling physician Millions Knives just wants to atone for his past by saving lives and taking care of his brother once and for all. Life would be a lot easier if he could just kill off the female reporters and bratty priest dragging him around, but apparently murder was bad or something. It's going to be a long road to July.

Esht's Trigun multichapter recs

Becoming Eden by Lenipez is the fic series ever. like, at all. I don't even know how to describe it in a way that would do it justice. just the tags alone on the first installment made me feel like a cat ready to pounce and once I did I was utterly lost in the sauce and still am!! this epic synesthesia sci-fi blend of all three triguns changed my brain chemistry in a way that matters and became my ultimate inspiration in formatting (did I mention, the formating here is INSANE)!!!!!! an absolute must-read

Write Your Ticket by WateredMyCrops starts out vashwood-centric but is, in fact, polygun through and through. this series is quite literally about breaking free from the narrative in ways that can't be reduced to a simple "fix-it". it's about recognition through the other and acceptance, and it makes me stim exessively every time I get a new chapter notification

Bluebells by eezybree is a very grounded story. the wild old days are over, but even a peaceful life has concequences. that is to say, vash can't just barge into meryl's apartment drunk and expect everything's gonna be ok between them! both are racked with trauma and grief, but they try to mend this wreck of a relationship day by day. and oh boy, am I invested in their progress!!

Like A Limb by CommanderGoo is art. the post-canon aftermath of meryl&vash's traumatic mindmeld is explored both through words and illustrations that bring the haunting atmosphere to another level. this too, is yuri and oh boy does it include some visceral body horror and altered mental states!!!!!!!!!!!!

there is a season for all things by SolidShrimp is the most ace heatfic ever. I don't know if it's about the mashwood dynamic here, the way they are willing to try this new weird thing for vash, or the fact that plant reproduction in this fic is so incompatible it doesn't resemble sex as humans understand it, but it is very compelling to me as aro/ace spec! a very enticing read

love and leg stretches by verboseDescription is perhaps the most compelling modern au to me. trigun is such a specific can of worms that's hard to transpose to modern day earth, but this fic manages it with ease. that, and it's t4t4t4t polygun with top tier disability(_es of all sorts) representation?? a delightful story about wolfwood being roped into a polycule through physical therapy while reimagining major trigun characters and plot beads in this setting
