Vash needs to be shown more often speaking French
Translation:
Vash: Say, are you fucking with me or what? Quit your bullshit before I knock out one of your teeth!
Knives: Go die, you crybaby.
Vash: Now you're gonna behave and let my friends take care of you or else I'll throw you into the desert as a snack for the giant worms!
Knives: Sure you will. /s
Vash: Uggo!
Knives: Simpleton.
Vash: Idiot!
Knives: Asshole.

Publishers’ Binding Thursday
This week’s publishers’ binding is an edition of How Private Geo. W. Peck Put Down the Rebellion or, the Funny Experiences of a Raw Recruit published in Chicago by Thompson and Thomas in 1900. The volume also includes Peck’s Boss Book. Both were written by Wisconsin writer and politician George W. Peck. How Private Peck Put Down the Rebellion was illustrated by True Williams, who also illustrated many of Mark Twain’s books, and Peck’s Boss Book was illustrated by H.E. Patterson.
In 1863 George W. Peck enlisted in the 4th Wisconsin Cavalry Regiment as a private and this book includes humorous sketches extremely loosely based on his time in the Union Army. Peck owned and edited several newspapers in Wisconsin in which he published his famous Peck’s Bad Boy series among others. Following his newspaper career, Peck was mayor of Milwaukee and shortly thereafter governor of Wisconsin.
The binding is a blue-green color with the title stamped in gold at the top of the cover, with an illustration of a man trying to get on a horse stamped in black below. The spine features the title stamped in gold and an illustration of something exploding above a soldier’s head stamped in black. Also in the book is the bookplate of Philip J. Hohlweck, who donated the book to our collection. It features a map-ish design with a ship and has this lovely sentiment: “There is no frigate like a book to take us lands away.”

I loved LOVED a word, a look, will be enough. I’m obsessed with the way you write jason and tim. No pressure to answer this at all, but I was curious if you have a headcanon about how the missing spleen reveal eventually goes
Jay »
Good afternoon Timothy.
« tim
uh oh
Jay »
I just had a fascinating conversation with Doc thompson
Care to hazard a guess about what?
« tim
pollen season
Jay »
No.
« tim
bird flu
Jay »
Is there a reason you havent told anyone in your life that you dont have a fucking spleen?
« tim
okay first of all
i’m not sure why doc thompson felt the need to tell you my private medical information
pretty sure they have a rule about that
Jay »
It’s not her fault.
I mentioned that you got whammied with that stupid germ bomb from Typhoid Tony or whatever the fuck his name was
« tim
vik vyral
Jay »
And she got all serious and told me I should get you into the clinic asap, and I was like no he’s fine now, it was basically a 24 hour bug, and she was like no, theres no such thing as a 24 hour bug for him, he needs to come get his blood tested yesterday
And then she clearly realized I had no fucking clue what she was talking about and clammed up. Wouldn’t say a thing. Told me to ask you myself.
Jay »
The look she gave me when I said you slept it off and went back to work. Like I should know better. like I was letting you be careless and shit bc thats just how I am or something.
« tim
“letting” me?
Jay »
yeah. Letting you. I know you know what I mean
« tim
i’m not sure i do.
Jay »
When youre with someone you take care of them.
I dont pretend to know much about this shit but I know that.
I’m not talking about handcuffing you to the radiator. Im talking about knowing whats going on with you and knowing that sometimes you let shit slide that I wouldn’t. When it comes to you
You do that for me and the others all the time. Thats how it works.
« tim
doc thompson doesn’t know you’re “with” me
Jay »
If you think everyone doesn’t know exactly what’s going on then your detective skills need work
Jay »
Also, Jesus, Tim.
« tim
ok sorry, i didn’t mean the scare quotes part
but did you pause to consider maybe there’s a reason i haven’t told everyone other than whatever shortsighted masochistic bs you’re assuming
Jay »
I dont need you to tell everyone. I’m not asking you to write a report on it.
Just like. if there’s any other major medical shit can you maybe tell me
Before you fucking die of a sinus infection or whatever bc the asshole who lives with you didn’t know your immune system has the horsepower of a bicycle
« tim
did you know you curse more when you’re fronting like you’re not worried about me
Jay »
I’m actually not fronting! in this moment!
« tim
okay
well. i am sorry
that sounded sarcastic bc of who i am as a person
but it’s not. i mean it.
Jay »
Sorry for yelling at you
« tim
i dont wanna go into it over text but i’ll tell you tonight. okay?
about what happened.
also there’s nothing else. it’s just the spleen thing
ok?
Jay »
Okay.
« tim
well and the mango allergy
well. and i’m double jointed specifically bc i have joint-hypermobility syndrome
which is why im so flexible :)
but also why i dislocate things a lot :(
um and im mildly allergic to carrots, bananas, pineapples, and most legumes, but it’s fine they just make my tongue itch
i think that’s all
Jay »
Tim can you be honest with me for a second
« tim
yeah…
Jay »
Are you inbred
« tim
NSJDN/&2&jdj?!_£_??
Jay »
Like are you that type of rich person
You can tell me. We are not going to procreate so I dont mind either way
« tim
just scared the living shit out of an intern who had never seen me laugh before. i think she thought i was choking
jesus CHRIST
i will see you at home.
Jay »
You
didn’t answer the question….
