    Summary

    No job was ever so simple. Yet for once, Wolfwood let himself believe in the mundanity of the position. That after so many years spent on the move, here was a strategic opportunity to stay still and smell the salty brine of the sea. He could disappear into the most remote region of the stormy coastline, where no man dared to go.

    All he needed to do was guard a lighthouse.

    The listing failed to mention it would talk.

Old friends reunite to investigate and find themselves ensnared by something powerful, forced to revisit their rawest losses and mistakes.

    Summary

    "Counterweight hangs in the center of the Golden Branch star sector, a forked path where the Perseus and Sagittarius arms of the Milky Way come together. Because of its location, life on this planet of billions brims with energy, and an exchange of cultures has led to an exchange of technologies. Automated robots valet vehicles, starships launch in the distance at regular intervals, holographic pop idols perform for holographic crowds. Giant humanoid mechs aid in tasks civil, commercial, and military, and sometimes you look up to them and think: We could have made them look like anything, but we made them look like us."

    --

    Desperate for money after burning one too many bridges with the local crime syndicate, Nicholas D. Wolfwood takes on an unusual and suspicious job on behalf of the mysterious corporation known as Sandtrak Synergies: bodyguarding the wanted hacktivist known as Vash the Stampede.

    Summary

    This is easy. This part of the after. Conversations that don’t mean anything. Conversations about bad smut and the garden that’s failed, because neither Vash nor Wolfwood have the ability to keep even hearty things alive in the climate. Talking about Wolfwood’s troublesome motorcycle or Milly and Meryl’s latest front page story. All easy and palletable. Frustratingly empty and Wolfwood feels himself losing Vash with each of these conversations. 

    “Vash.”

    Vash’s eyes darken immediately. “Hm?”

    “We should go somewhere."

    “Go somewhere?”

    “Sure. Why not?”

    “Why so?”

    Wolfwood came prepared for this. If he tells Vash that he’s worried Vash is withering away here in this house, that Wolfwood misses his spark, his life, that Wolfwood can’t bear how little he can help him, then Vash will find a way to dismiss it. Talk around it, laugh it off and tell Wolfwood to go visit Livio in November or join Midvalley when he travels. 

    “You’ve been all over the place, yeah?”

    Vash’s mouth purses lightly. “Sure.”

    “Well I sure as shit haven’t, you should take me somewhere.”

    Or Vash and Wolfwood heal in the aftermath of Knives one destination at a time.

    Summary

    (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.

    Summary

    During a game of cards, an older man spoke of his grandmother who’d seen a man that’d looked like a shooting star running through her fields of wheat and saltgrass, only to vanish at the town’s eastern border. From what she’d seen of him, he’d looked too sad to make a wish on, and she hadn’t much liked the idea of wishing on a dead man in the first place.

    The story hadn’t been much of anything. It certainly didn’t tie to the lake in any concrete way, and it didn’t mention July, and it didn’t have the tension that every other rumor did.

    But Nicholas finds himself in some stranger’s grandmother’s hometown north of July anyway, a couple hours’ ride up a highway that looked to be maintained only by the grace of God and hand-mixed pitch. It’s bigger than July, but that isn’t saying much. Its defining feature is a bar that markets itself as a Real Western Saloon, complete with swinging doors and a dusty piano that plays two hairs offkey to keep the tunes jaunty. What’d once been those saltgrass and wheat fields sport maize these days, and they stretch for yarz down the highway.

    When he breathes in, he can taste lakesand against his tongue. He presses it to the roof of his mouth as a reminder, as an omen.

    Summary

    His memories trickle in, he tries to remember what he was last doing. There was Hopeland, and there was red. A lot of red.

    Vash.

    There’s an uncomfortable feeling in his chest at the name, the face. Spikey, Needle-noggin, Blondie, all his stupid nicknames for one very familiar face.

    He died, the knowledge doesn’t feel as scary as it should be. Just strange, like the first time he saw Vash talk to a plant. Like something beyond his comprehension was placed right in his lap.

     

    Wolfwood wakes up almost twenty years after his death. Things have changed, the world is a kinder place than he left it. There's only one thing missing.

    Where is Vash the Stampede?

    Summary

    Picks up where Stargaze left off.
    On the day Vash departs Noman’s Land, he makes one final stop at the lake created in July’s crater by Nai’s last run. He intends to say goodbye to his brother and make a vow to protect their sisters.
    Instead, Vash and Wolfwood find Nai - naked, fully restored, hair now long and black - collapsed at the water’s edge.
    In the months that follow, the twins dance around each other as they work to repair their relationship, find out what it means to be brothers again, and maybe build something more.
    Nai just didn’t expect the Punisher to be so involved.

    Summary

    “Hey,” Livio began, “were you in love with Vash?”

    “𝘞𝘩𝘢𝘵—” Wolfwood hacked loudly, coughing as he yanked his cigarette out and stared wide-eyed, spooked like a thoma. “Who the 𝘧𝘶𝘤𝘬 starts a conversation like that?"

    - - -

    Five years after Wolfwood's death, he crawls back out of his own grave. Somehow, tracking down Vash to give him the news becomes the most difficult part in all this.

    Summary

    “What’s your name?”

    “…Knives.”

    Vash’s mouth ticks downward. “Is that the name the… doctors gave you?” Knives nods. He listens to the thrum in Vash’s chest in the brief silence that lapses.

    “Can I call you something else?” After a beat, another nod. “How’s Nai sound?”

    “Short,” Knives says.

    Summary

    A tremor ran beneath the little thing‘s hide as Wolfwood ran the long golden feather between his fingers, brushing off the dirt.

    “Heya, little fella,” he whispered. “You still alive or what?”

    The defenseless little creature shuddered, its stumpy legs twitching as though it wanted to run, but it couldn’t even lift its head. It mewled softly, an animal sound of hurt, then laid back in exhaustion.

    ***

    Once upon a time, in the ruins of a kingdom far, far away, Nicholas D Wolfwood finds a little creature and takes care of it. Little does he know, the critter is a cursed prince…

    Summary

    JuLai wasn't lost. It was judged and found wanting. Wolfwood stands at the edge of a crater, where the very air became nothing and a hundred, thousand lives disappeared in a flash of violet, violent light. He shouldn't be here. Vash isn't here to forgive him.

    Meryl collects the stories of survivors, of the loved ones who remain after the destruction and looks to the crater and sees all the questions she'll have to ask. She doesn't know what answers she wants to find, or if she wants answers at all.

    There's something here.

    They aren't alone.

    Summary

    Suddenly, he felt a solid impact send him to the ground. He struggled to get up, but the man was quick to grab Vash’s gun out of his holster and toss it away while his other arm pinned Vash’s prosthetic down to the ground. “Sorry, Blondie…”

    Vash gasped, recalling those same words from months ago. He met the man’s gaze, and sure enough, there was a red gleam to his otherwise brown eyes. “It’s you-”

    His words died in his throat as the man leaned down and brushed his nose right against Vash’s pulse point, sending shivers down Vash’s skin. “It’s not personal, it’s just…” There was genuine sadness in that raspy voice, “...a man’s gotta eat.”
    -
    Wolfwood needs blood to survive. Vash's plant healing makes him sturdier than most. Necessity brings these two unlikely travel partners together, but is it enough to put an end to Vash's long-standing loneliness? Hard to keep your distance when a hot vampire is sucking you dry.

    Summary

    Nicholas D. Wolfwood manages to piss off Gunsmoke's most violent cryptid: Millions Knives. Despite his rage, Knives agrees to spare Wolfwood, but only if he successfully tracks down Knives' slippery, nomadic brother - another elusive cryptid simply referred to as "The Stampede".

    It takes years, but thanks to the aid of Zazie the Beast, Wolfwood tracks "The Stampede" to a small mountain town called TriPeak.

    Despite Wolfwood's desperation to catch the monster, his fondness for the town proves to be a slight distraction. The locals are nice, the cafe sells the best coffee he's ever had, and TriPeak is inherently charming, despite the perpetually grey weather.

    And on top of all that, there's one newer TriPeak transplant who Wolfwood finds particularly fascinating.

    Summary

    The things that make Vash who he is are so disparate and contradictory and so, so human that Wolfwood forgets on occasion that he isn’t: it’s only when Vash doesn’t eat for days and seems none the worse for it, or when he plucks the pin feathers that sprout on occasion along his hairline that Wolfwood is reminded that, despite all their hours together, a yawning chasm still stretches between what he knows and what there is yet to discover about the Humanoid Typhoon. 
    The gauge of what is normal and what isn’t for Vash uses metrics that Wolfwood cannot even begin to attempt to define, but about a month into their sojourn to JuLai, some time between run-down rest stops and no-name towns, Wolfwood begins to notice that something about Vash seems… off .

    Summary

    The orphanage looms at his back. It looks empty—abandoned. He wonders idly how long he's been out of commission for. The longest, before this, was four months—but that had been under the watchful Eye of Michael, not left to rot in a pit of his own making.

    I should be dead, he thinks. Maybe I was dead.

    There's a stillness in the air that feels unfamiliar, unnerving. Not like high noon before a gunfight but rather, the tense silence that comes after one, in the dusk.

    Something happened.
