i love to read meta of knives as an abuser and nod my head thoughtfully at all great points and then once the post ends i go back to considering him as my darling son who never did anything wrong ever

#let him out your honour yeah he did it all but i dont care #he had some points #so what he and his twin brother fell into and perpetuated the cycle of abuse that hurts each other #they broke out of it at the end. that has to count #“we cant go back. we cant be those brothers again. so ill kill you if you kill me. why didnt you kill me. WHY DID YOU SAVE ME”#and then at the end he did the thing vash tried to save him from anyway (disappearing forever and ever and ever and ever and )#sorry. lots of thoughts abt these tragic siblings #forever thinking about how vash threw the first stone between them #like that fuckssssss me up #i know tristamp changed that #but to me its always. knives loving him thru violence bc its the only way that makes sense. only for vash to use it on him #so of course knives lashed out. imagine realising the thing u use to protect ur brother can hurt you back just as bad #imagine killing a town of people that hurt your brother only for him to shoot you #and then you cut his arm off #not taking any critique at this time. im fully aware of the text. im just choosing to love him anyway :)#this is also why i find swap fic sooooo compelling. where vash is the dangerous one and knives is his victim #oooo u are two sides of the same coin. you could have been each other if only a few things went differently #but you could never be The Same
