#i overlooked it for awhile but its just too fitting for vash to be tormented by himself

[threegunbrainrot]

yall isnt it kinda fucked up that in trimax eriks arc—even when vash has scraped together the most fragile, bare-bones version of a peaceful life—he still ends up tormented by himself in the most literal sense

literally someone who took up his own name and decided to torment his new precious home. i feel like nightow just grabbed me by the shoulders and screamed "look it's a metaphor!!"

because of who he is, vash will never be able to leave his past behind. it's too great and too bloody. it follows him into a domestic life in the form of a REAL, PHYSICAL MURDERER.

like holy shit. the things that guilt does to this man. the way he's eternally crushed by the weight of his own expectations and fears. man.

(edit: idk why i specified trimax but u get the idea)
