I was also freaked, because the episode is like one of those movies like A Simple Plan, where everything starts out ok, but then one thing goes wrong, and soon the whole thing snowballs from bad to worse to a total nightmare.
Oh, that's my FAVORITE aspect of it. It's such a horror movie; there is something dreadfully wrong here, and things fall apart. I love love love it. I agree that the crew was really well-done. JoeyxRem! XD
That's not quite the same as using his Cutie Moon Rod to transform and purify Knives of all negative energy and evil thoughts.
Thanks, I'm not EVER going to get that image out of my head. There's a fic I've read that has good ideas but the execution is less then stellar--anyways, in it, Meryl knocks Vash out and goes to kill Knives because someone has to and she won't let Vash hurt himself that way. Very interesting concept. The fic fadingembers and I are working on deals with the non-redeemable thing to some extent, but I'd love to see more fics that touch on it.
I have a question, because you've read more VxM fic than I have... how come in most of them Vash's extensive wounds, scars, and body mutilations aren't mentioned during the sex scenes? I mean, sometimes there's talk about scars, but no one has yet mentioned (that I've read) how uncomfortable that big metal grate on his chest would be chaffing against Meryl's boob. Major chafing, there, I would think.
My guess is that people mostly get caught in the moment of writing sexy pr0n and don't think about it, or think it detracts from the mood. I'm probably guilty of this a little; I know we've mentioned it before, but I think the first fic fadingembers and I co-wrote lacked mention of scars. Oopsie.
arafel has scans of a doujinshi in which Vash's grate does scratch Meryl. Heh. He makes it better, though.
Speaking of... I just realized that I love that scene in episode 18 where long-haired Vash is sitting up in his hospital bed, upper body naked, talking to Knives and sort of looking down in profile. His face and hair looked very hot in that scene... whereas most of the other scenes the long hair wasn't that flattering.
Mmm, it does. And that's such a dramatical scene! My favorite instances of floop hair occur in Live Through, though. Favorite episode omg.
I'm thinking of looking for screencaps... do you know any really good screencap sites for Trigun eps?
Planet Gunsmoke (dot com) is the mecca for Trigun screencaps. I use it for all of my iconning needs.
BTW, if you ever want to yap on AIM or sth, my name's JainaX. But don't feel obligated. ^_^
