    Summary

    It only occurs to her as she’s straightening up, Millie’s red tie hanging from her hand, that Vash really hasn’t left. When she turns around, their eyes meet; Vash had been staring at her. His glasses are off, hanging from his collar, revealing stark, electric blue. Meryl hadn’t forgotten the colour—could never forget anything about Vash, no matter how hard she’d wanted to try at one point—but they’re still so breathtaking in person.

    Meryl swallows. “You’re still here.”

    “Well, I like you,” Vash responds. “And you’re not filming me, so I’m not sure why I’d leave.”

    “That’s how it is, huh?” Meryl smiles.

    ---

    When Meryl and Vash finally get a moment alone after all is said and done, Vash gives her something that he's been meaning to give her for years.

    A series of one-shot short stories.

    Summary

    With no further recourse beyond double texting—which goes against her principles—Meryl plops herself down on the couch and runs the material through her fingers. It smells like him, the coat does. Vash uses a mild cologne, a sort of woodsy scent Meryl has never had the courage to ask the name of. When Meryl presses the neck of the coat to her nose and breathes in, she can pick out Vash’s laundry detergent, his fruity shampoo, another slightly sweet underlying smell that Meryl can only associate with Vash.

    She then pulls the jacket away, because she’s probably being weird. Smelling her friend’s clothes. It has a good heft in her arms. It’s leather after all, and larger than any of the clothing in Meryl’s closet. When she sits forward and pulls it on, her arms are completely engulfed by the sleeves. The coat itself swallows her, reaching almost down to her knees. Not that that’s unexpected. Vash is a big guy. But it’s something else, being faced with the tangible proof of that fact, when Vash usually keeps her at such a distance.

    Now Meryl is definitely being weird.

    ---

    Vash leaves his jacket at Meryl's apartment. Meryl responds to this as anyone would.
