I can imagine this scenario in my Trigun Modern Au happening a couple of times.
Wolfwood and Vash get into a fight. Like not a shouting match kind of fight. Like a full on knock down, drag out, fists and teeth and full on violence type of fight. The kind where knuckles split and noses bleed and all that.
Adelha doesn't stop them. No she does not. She herds her puppies and kitten into her bedroom to shut them in. Then she just sits and watches these two duke it out. No words from the Irish lass as she waits for them to get it all out and do the macho fistitcuffs.
Both men end up laying on the ground and huffing for air. Wolfwood is cussing in between pants and growls. Vash is doing his best to get more air as he silently seethes. But then both men have Adelha kneel over them to just lightly tap each of them on the forehead. Her way of saying their fight is over. She gathers her adopted family and current dumb men to the bathroom. Packs of ice on black eyes. Her first aide kit is out and she is tending to scrapes and split skin. While she gently talks to both men. She doesn't scold them for fighting. She doesn't lecture them about the idea that violence isn't the answer. She instead talks them through what started the fight. She reminds them both they are unconditionally loved. That they are friends and family to each other and to her.
Adelha acts as the calm soul to get them to sort their emotions and thoughts after the anger and ferocity has worked out of their systems with healing and love. She gives them a balm to their aching spirits and their aching bodies. Vash asks why she didn't stop them. To which she states a simple truth. "Sweetheart. You both needed to let it all out and act on the rage and tension. It's not the first fight I have seen where two people duked it out over a conflict. It will not be the last one either. I've gotten into a scuffle or four, myself." Wolfwood and Vash looked shocked to hear that.
Wolfwood and Vash find out later from Adelha's guardians that she has gotten into bar fights before. Eugene and Claude smiling like proud parents as they recall the time a braggart got too drunk to keep his hands to himself. He'd decided to take a swing at a terrified bus boy for no good reason. Next thing the bastard knew, he was on his ass and sporting a broken nose from Adelha getting involved. He then got his ass handed to him the next night when he came back looking for trouble slash revenge on the bus boy. How Adelha had hauled him into the back alley and gave him a pummeling. Eugene grinning wide as he noted he'd never been happier to pay bail for anyone than when Adelha had gotten arrested along with the drunk.
Thoughts came to me.
Original:
Honestly, I love it when characters relapse. When someone who’s gotten over their anger issues falls into a situation so out of their depth they fall back on their old habits. When someone who’s learned to open up becomes a recluse again in order to cope with something outside their control.
There’s just something so horrible, so toxic, about watching a character grow and then slip back into their old selves in order to cope, bc you know they still care, that they’re the same inside, but watching them hurt so hard they don’t know what else to do brings a sense of catharsis.
he refuses to eat anything but the zombie meat
Relationships are like food.
I just thought of this analogy and I think it works really well.
When making a meal you need to have a good flavor balance, you need the salty, the sweet, the savoury, and the spicy.
You are a part of the meal to so you need a food that compliments you well too. For example I think of myself as like a potato, I'm not super flavorful but I'm a good base and I go well with a lot of different flavors, aka I get along with people very easily. But there is certain foods that I get along with best and those are like my friends and family.
And so having relationships and making friendships is like making a meal. Sometimes you might need a bit more spice in your life so you will hang out with a more adventurous friend. Or maybe you don't like spice so you hanged out with a more sweet friend.
But it's still important to have a balance in your diet, to much of one thing can also be bad.
And some times someone doesn't compliment your flavor and it's okay. You can't expect everything to taste good together.
This also might be why opposites attract, they taste well together even if it's an odd flavor combination.
I just think that this is a cool concept and way to look at relationships.
