Fics like regret

Knives walks straight backed across the desert sands, never wavering. Occasionally, he looks back to make sure Vash is following, and the image is so similar to their earliest years on this planet that it hurts to think about. It makes Knives look younger, less cruel. It tempts Vash into deception, into taking Knives’ hand again, allowing him to lead them through the endless dunes. Then a body appears in their path, rotting and half-buried. Its hand is outstretched, frozen in death as it waits for salvation, and Vash banishes any thought of seeking comfort in Knives before the millions of dead humans begin their cries for help anew. Why didn’t you stop him why did you fail why did you let us die why did this happen why why why why Vash has to look away, drowning in guilt. Knives only curls his lip at the sight, as if looking at a particularly unappetizing meal. They continue on. Vash doesn’t know where they’re going. It doesn’t matter anyways. (knives wins and all humans die. knives does TOO much to try and keep vash alive and content in a planet populated by two).
