Trigun Fics
Here I am compiling all my fav Trigun fics, from heart wrenching to fluffy, and everything in-between. Mostly Vashwood! This is a living document and is updated regularly ^.^
(Explicit fic recs are listed separately due to link limitations in Tumblr posts)
Organized by rating > word count > status. Any fic that features "+" after the word count is on-going/uncompleted. As they finish, I will add the final word count.
Please tag an author if I haven't! I tried to find them all, but there are a couple I couldn't/wasn't sure about
Special shoutout to the YAT and Pen Pal Discords for providing so many of these (and writing several)
Read the tags, you know how it goes! And feel free to leave your own recs as well!

First time with Knives
Tumblr media
Summary: You let your demons win and decide to ask Knives if you can sit on his lap, curiosity takes over Knives and some smut ensues
Content: no established relationship, both are virgins, Knives is pretty nice here but will be his usual self in the second part (if I finish that...), reader is female, reader is an overthinker, pet name (Knives calling you good girl & slut, reader calling him master) Only finguring, Like 1.5k words long?
A/N: first time writing smut! I'm sorry if it's not too great <'3 also this is super self indulgent, I only made this for myself but since there's so little Knives smut in here...I must share
NSFW warning!
You've been wondering for a while, how does it feel to be on master Knives lap? To feel his heartbeat, to feel his warmth- or lack of- to have his strong arms around your delicate body. This question has bugged you for weeks, and it was starting to become more of a need than a want. The more time passed, the more you couldn't ignore it and today you finally decided to figure out what would be his reaction. 
"Knives?" You quietly muttered in a room with nothing but the empty piano that you're so used to seeing be played by the man that has captivated your heart. It felt odd being here without Knives around, almost as invading his privacy, but curiosity got the better of you as you made your way to the piano, your fingers gently brushing over the tips of the keys, too scared to actually play any notes to alert the master.
"Y/N?" But there it was, the familiar voice that always made your body jump. You quickly turn around and place your arms behind your back. "Knives! I'm sorry I didn't mean to touch it..." You tried to explain yourself but he only walked towards you, his expression was hard to read under his coat, you could only hope he wasn't angry at you. "Why were you here?" He asks in a softer tone, genuinely confused which makes you sigh in relief, thankfuly this won't be your last day on this planet. “Um..I was actually looking for you.” You admitted, lowering your face to avoid eye contact at all cost.
“Did something happen?”
“No- actually,” You start, taking a moment to collect yourself, finally meeting his eye. “Can we go to your room?” You manage to blur out, a little more enthusiastically than you wanted to. He’s taken it back a little by your honesty, he scratches the back of his head questioning if he should even let you in, and what could be so important that it needs to be talked about privately, but seeing you anxiously wait for an answer makes him give in, he turns around and waves for you to follow him. You smile as you excitedly walk alongside him.
You enter the room, and suddenly all of your anxieties come crashing on you as soon as you realize what you truly wanted. You gulped as your hands fidgeted with each other, how do you tell Knives- basically your master- you want to sit on his lap? And so much more than that??  Your thinking gets interrupted when he points to the bed for you to sit, your heart suddenly begins to beat louder and louder as you feel your chest build a twisted knot. Is now a good time? I shouldn't do it- but when else should I?? Wouldn't he kill me if I even mention this? You tried to speak but words wouldn't come out- “I want to sit on your lap!” ...okay well maybe you just needed your lust to take over your rationality.
His eyes widen as he stares at you, lost entirely for words. “W-what? Why?” He manages to say through the confusion, you cover your mouth as your cheeks heat up- oh my god you dumbass- “I’m sorry I didn’t mean to say it like that! I’m just…curious” You wish god would just strike you down with lightning already. He takes a moment to think and the room goes uncomfortably quiet, until he sighs and removes his coat, showing his muscular build, has his arms always been that big? And his hands…your mind trails off, losing focus on anything else besides his body. Knives sits on the bed, reaching out his hand to you “Come here.” Your heart feels like it could leap outside of your body, it was almost paralyzing but you still manage to sit on top of his lap, feeling as though you were seconds away from melting away.
Your eyesight gets slightly blurry as your brain- no, your body tries to process any of this. “Is that what you wanted?” He asks, not seeing any point in this, you could only nod in response, thanking god he can't see your immensely flustered face. He scoffs in response and places his arms around you. “You humans are so odd- what's the point of something so…” He says, suddenly stopping as he stares at your tiny body compared to his, your gentle hands becoming a nervous mess, your knees slightly rubbing against each other, your breathing, and your heartbeat so close, how your body felt against his…why did it bring his attention now? “Master?” You question, making him focus again. “You’re the most confusing human I've met, I could never figure you out.” He states, never removing his eyesight from your body. You can’t bring yourself to say anything besides an awkward laugh.
The room goes silent, all you can hear is your own heartbeat. It feels awkward- or are you the only one seeing this awkward? No it most definitely isn’t just you- You continue to overthink everything about this situation but a sudden touch in your leg makes you gasp quietly, looking down to see his big hand caress you, drawing circles in your leg. Oh god oh god…. Your breathing becomes sharper, your eyes somehow losing all focus yet still stare intently to his hand. Knives didn’t know why, but your small body being so near to his…it made him curious. He moves his hands on your upper thighs to see your reaction, another gasp comes out of you, interesting. He pushes on, moving to your inner thigh, every slight touch would make your body quiver in response and beg for more, your legs spread wider as your breathing was no longer trying to hide your lust as it turned more into quiet panting.
"Knives…" you murmured under your breath, turning your head to face him but you can't bring yourself to see his eyes. He tilts his head to try and see your expression, he wants to see your cute face as you melt under his touches, he wants to see what makes you excited and what doesn't, he wants to see you, but you look away before giving him that chance. He grunts silently, moving his hand closer and closer to your sensitive area but he stops entirely, making you almost look at him- but you can't, it's too embarrassing. His other hand touches your belly over your clothes, you bite back a moan as his long finger gently makes his way to your chest, and then your nipple that was showing through your shirt. He begins rubbing circles again, this time a moan comes out, you want him to just hurry up and put his dick inside you, but gosh this felt so fucking good, you couldn't complain. He stops, now putting his hand behind the shirt and touching your warm body, making your whole body tremble, every small touch felt like heaven to you. His other hand still hasn't gotten there yet, and your hips became desperate as you started thrusting a little, hoping something would make your aching body feel something, but there's nothing there. "What do you want me to do?" He whispers into your ear, almost taking a bite but he resists his urges, you gulped and tried to speak but nothing but quiet moans came out, you could barely focus at all and he didn't like your silence at all, so he began to finally touch your aching are, but only slightly over your panties, it could barely be called a touch. "Knives…" you moaned trying to get him to touch you, to fuck you, but he doesn't do it. You couldn't take it anymore "Please…" you beg, but he still doesn't do anything. "Say what you want." You hesitated, but you knew you had to swallow your pride and just say it. "Touch me more..fuck me already please.." You blurred out in between your desperate panting, he smirks to himself, placing a quick kiss on your neck "Good girl."
He finally begins rubbing your pussy, it's slow and nowhere near enough for you, but you still exhale in relief. For someone who's never had sex before, he sure knew how to use his fingers. He used two fingers to rub your area, the rest to touch the surroundings, after a bit, he lifts up his hand and shows you his thick, yet delicate fingers. "You're already this wet, huh? You've been thinking about this for a while haven't you?" He teases, you shake your head no but we all know better than that. He removes your soaked panties to the side, taking a moment to himself. Fuck that's hot, he thinks before he begins to rub your clit with one finger, you loudly moan at the cold surface hitting your warm inside, grabbing his arm to calm down your pleasure, it didn't work. "Wait-" you tried to say more but the sudden thick finger pushing in made your head jolt back with a loud moan, your eyes started to get watery and your body wouldn't stop shaking. "Do you like that? Or would you prefer…" He inserts another finger in, they both push in and out of your wet pussy, making lewd noises that covered the room, it was embarrassing to hear but it made you so desperate to hear more, especially from him. Your hips moved accordingly with his fingers entering you, making loud noises as the two clashed between each other, your mouth drooled as tears began to fall, his hands never stopping from touching their respective areas. "Faster.." You commanded but he didn't obey, he stopped touching your nipple and turned your head to finally see him "I'm the master here, not you." Suddenly his lips meet yours, if you weren't already feeling dizzy then that definitely changed now. You wanted both his hand and tongue deeper and deeper, you wanted him to touch your g-spot, to make you see the stars from so much lust, you wanted the man you loved to turn you into a complete mess.
The kiss was sloppy but you never moved away, even when you needed to catch your breath. He pushes you away for a moment when he realizes so, you gasped loudly as a string of saliva connects the two of you. You could hear his breathing now become less controlled, his pacing becomes faster, you grab his arm tighter and your mix of moaning and panting echoes through the room. You begin to cry at how overwhelming it all feels. "I'm going to cum-" you groaned as you could feel it build up from inside you, he kisses you again, this time using more of his tongue, never once wanting to leave you as his fingers fuck you harsher and faster, he let's out a small groan at the sight of your quivering body, such an adorable human now looks like a total slut. "Knives!" You screamed, your back arching back as you could feel the inside of you get full with your orgasm, you kept gasping for air and your body gave in, he never removed his hand till you came down from your high. He kisses your neck once more, his other hand that has been touching your chest moves to remove your tears. You rest your head on him and your panting turns into breathing again. "Fuck…" you whispered, he stops kissing your neck and finally removes his now slimy hand from inside you, he let's out a quiet moan in between your neck, did this really just happened? 
You turned your body around and placed your hands on his chest, your breathing now becoming normal but your eyes were full of pure lust. He didn't fully show it, but fuck he was hard, who wouldn't be after their first time with someone as cute as you "Please..I want you inside of me" You beg, legs still trembling but needing more, and how could he ever deny such a beauty of her wishes.

(Worst time to get nabbed by bounty hunters? Maybe when your alien partner's busy going through their seasonal thing.)
He closes his eyes, lets himself sink a little lower so he can make use of the pillows. Maybe Meryl has the right idea about a nap. His hand keeps ending up across his stomach and he should probably put the cigarette out because it’s a dumb idea to fall asleep with one lit. It doesn’t feel pressing though. It should, but it doesn’t. He’ll deal with it in a minute. Just wants a few more seconds of this before he has to move. Except it’s barely the afternoon and he’d got a solid eight hours the last night so why the hell is he nodding off like some toddler after a glass of warm milk? Nicholas sits up sharply and shakes his head, trying to shrug off the drowsiness, but it doesn’t fade. No – the room lists, and nausea churns, but the fog won’t clear.

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.

read on ao3
Wolfwood wakes up from a nightmare to find Vash sleeping on his chest. That never happened before. For some reason, he can’t bring himself to push him away. Why would he, when it feels so comforting?
Or, they lost focus and developed a queerplatonic relationship
Rating: Teen
Relationships: Vash the Stampede/Nicholas D. Wolfwood
Tags: Hurt/Comfort, Sharing a Bed, Fluff, Non-Graphic Violence, Blood, Dreams and Nightmares, Asexual Character, Aromantic, Crying Vash the Stampede, Asexual Vash the Stampede, Trans Nicholas D. Wolfwood, Touch-Starved, Canon Compliant
Words: 7,3k
Chapters: 2/2, finished
Notes: any story has at least two sides to it. I took this sentiment quite literally, so chapter one is written from Wolfwood's POV, and second one is from Vash's.

@hjemne are you seeing this???! this needs to be framed fr 😭😭
This week's Fic Rec Friday goes to Glazed and Confused by @hjemne !
I love the contrast of domestic fluff on wolfwood's POV and angst of miscommunication on vash's POV, and I really enjoy fics that explore Vash knowing about Wolfwood's betrayal and his actions and beliefs in spite of it(especially 98 Vash!! Rarely see fics about it)
Read it so this comic strip makes sense!

Bonus scene:
one of the botched attempts XD

something quick for trigun fanfic appreciation week
Tumblr media
Wolfwood from @madnessmadness ‘s Becoming Eden series, specifically inspired by a early scene in [The Whole Damn Forest]
I love him he is a little fucked up actually
I’m (very) slowly making my way through the second part but I cannot say enough how much of an experience this series is, it’s intense, wonderfully weird and filled with so much great imagery both in the metaphorical and literal sense

my contribution to trigun fanfic appreciation week
been going back and forth over whether to share some of my faves from last summer but yk what you only live once.
a tide of tender mercies by gloriousporpoise (vashwood, 23K, E) -- the ultimate post-canon tristamp fix-it, genuinely such a lovely self-contained story arc. if you're up for the emotional investment and a slightly longer fic this one is so worth it.
good lord, i feel like i'm dyin' by elemmacil (vashwood, M, 1K) -- I don't read AUs like at all but this is my exception. super short modern rock band AU that just hits all the right notes.
everything by goldenglitz, who writes some of my favorite t4t vashwood and just nails the trimax dynamic. a lot of vashwood tends to kind of smooth down their rough edges and these fics really embrace it instead.
... and I think that's how much I want to out myself on favorite fics for today. go check some of these out!
