#also not me thinking about knives still being a kinda washed out version of vash and his eyes being a kind of pale almost sickly green

[silly-bean]

Today I'm thinking about how BLR gave Vash green eyes and how much I love the idea of his eyes being green.

Don't get me wrong, blue-eyed Vash is fantastic. Glowing blue eyes is one if my fav character things ever (yall know this already if you've seen my ff7 stuff) and it's really only trumped by wings/winged characters. But there's smth about him having green eyes that's really cool to me

The color green is a rarity on no man's land, especially in tristamp w/ there being even less vegetation/water available than in '98/trimax. The only green really to ever pop up is the really bright green in the worms or in some peoples eyes or the muted/dark in fabrics. The people have knowledge of the color, but it's something unnatural to them, something rarely seen.

So, Vash having green eyes?? Green green eyes?? Eyes that change shade and hue in different lighting and depending on his mood?? Eyes green like plants should be, not like eyes usually are, a color very few people have reference for.

Idk smth smth it's common in this fandom to associate all the parts of Vash with plants (flora, not the interdimensional generator ones) and spring and stuff like that, and I think it'd be fun if his eyes also reflected that.
