he reached out. he reached back. to dolph. his breath stops in his chest, heart hammering because no one really does reach back. it always feels like dolph is clawing, holding on, trying and sliding down. like he's trying to climb out of the hole of what he was made of. fighting what he was doomed for. no happy endings.
oh, he wants to close the distance, swallow it down. he wants to bridge the gap and never feel like he missed out. that vash is here. that vash can need him and it'll be okay. for both of them. they don't have to orbit forever and ever, they can just be.
instead he takes vash's hand and brings it up to his mouth so he can press a kiss to his palm. feels his fingers tremble as he clasps his wrist. feels the world shift. because this is not going to last, but this is the first time he's ever heard vash say he'd try. and he said it to dolph.
oh, what a tragedy that it's the happiest he's felt in some time. will it work? who knows.
he'll try. they'll try. ]
I missed you.
[ his voice is choked with tears that threaten to burst through. ]
