Ah,, the school production
How you've missed the last minute rehearsals, the after show parties, mouthing conversations across the stage and that one girl who got the lead and won't shut the hell up about it
What's not to love ??
Okay,, maybe you're being unnecessarily pessimistic
Because you'll still come back
Every
Single
Time
Honestly,, it's a problem at this point
Like masochism but without the physical pain
Though it is sometimes physical
Like,,
Whoever the fuck is responsible for some of these dance moves needs to chopped into little pieces and fed to some hungry piranhas
You've rolled your ankle and nearly shattered it into smithereens about a hundred times
Rehearsals have just started and you're on your first fucking dance number
Clumsy is looking like a bit of an understatement at this point
You're not normally like this, you swear !!
You're just not much of a dancer
At least not these dance moves anyway
Who decided a high kick followed by step-turn followed by another high kick and then a roll and then a fucking leap into yet another bloody high kick was a good and necessary part of the routine
You'd do just fine with a few arm waves.. maybe a YMCA if we're feeling particularly adventurous
You have a few choice words for them
Or maybe a whole ass speech
We'll see how articulate you are when you find them
As you huff and puff through your anger you don't notice the sound of footsteps behind you
"What are you doing?"
An ungodly shriek flies from your lips as you jump nearly three fucking feet in the air
You curl into a nearby wall, grasping at your chest as if that would slow your racing heart
"What the hell, man?"
You groan at the cackling boy behind you
Aaron Z
Fucking prick
Since being forced together as what essentially boiled down to patient and nurse,, the two of you had grown close
Bit hard not to when you can't catch a single break from one another
"Couldn't resist, sorry."
You held up your fist, shaking it mockingly
"One of these days I'll get a bell on you and then we'll see what's funnier."
"I could be wearing a foghorn that goes off whenever I come within 6 feet of you and you still wouldn't notice. You'd be too stuck inside that head of yours."
You roll your eyes but concede with a smile
"Whatever, man."
"Anyway, wanna let me in on what has you so.. "
"Excited? Thrilled? Jumping for joy? Sure thing, Z, let me fill you in on what I so dearly love about these shows!"
Z furrows his brow and looks almost.. scared ??
Dramatic fucker
"I've truly missed practically breaking my ankle every other second oh so much, haven't you?"
"..I just got off crutches.."
...
Fuck
"Right, that was ill-timed, huh.. but you get my point!"
Z kinda just stares at your blankly as you fight the urge to sigh
"..Okay, so maybe you don't get my point.."
"You know, I don't know if I even know my point.. oh well, just know that my feet hurt and I'm ready to throw hands!"
Z blinked at you slowly before nodding
"Sure, you do that.."
You,, lost in your righteous fury,, don't register the sarcasm and nod firmly
"I absolutely will do that, just you watch me. I swear, when I get my hands on that-"
"Z! We need some help with the choreo over here, could you spare us a second?"
Your eyes narrow at the interruption before widening in slow realisation
"Be right over!" Z yells back before turning to you. "See ya."
You glare at his shrinking figure..
So he's the bitch that's decided to cast ruin upon your ankles..
Very well,, two can play that game !!
You'll give him just as good as you get
Over the following weeks you pulled some..uh,, harmless (??) pranks on Z
All necessary reparations for the damages to your body,, mind and soul,, of course !!
Really,, you didn't ever do anything bad to him.. just caused some mild inconvenience
Like,, when he changed shoes for dancing you'd spray the insides of his trainers with water
Or putting his playlist on shuffle when he's across the room
Or "accidentally" breaking his bluetooth connection by turning off his speaker and then turning it back on again.. multiple times throughout rehearsals
You would never do anything actually harmful !!
All tricks are mildly inconvenient and annoying at worst and funny at best !!
You swear !!
Please no arrest..
A month or so before the show you notice Z getting actually frustrated at one of your little.. pranks
So you decide to quit them,, they were pretty petty after all
Unfortunately,, in the process of putting a stop to your trickster ways Z notices you in your trickster ways
Needless to say,, he's not all that.. impressed
(It's not your fault the guy's been attempting to break your bones every rehearsal,, whether intentionally or not..)
So an apology it is..
SIKE
As if !!
Just because he's perpetually in crutches doesn't mean you want be
Haha loser..
...
Okay,, okay
So maybe you do apologise after all
That last thought made you feel kinda bad.. it's not Z's fault his limbs are too long and don't listen to him
(It's prolly because they're so far away from his brain..)
Although,, and you hate to admit it,, he somehow overcomes the limits of his lankiness and becomes quite.. graceful when he dances
It's pretty cool to watch..
He looks very at home,, not just in the space but also in his body
It's enchanting to watch
(IN A COMPLETELY PLATONIC WAY AHAHAHAHA)
Haha..
.. anyway
Z, to your surprise, takes the situation really well
Like,, bursts out laughing kinda well
Which, let's be clear, you were so relieved by, you'd been expecting him to be pretty upset about it
But no,, Z's spent enough time around his friends and their pranks to be able to find the humour in your "revenge"
If anything you accidentally incite a prank wars type situation
Which really solidifies your crush ahem,, sorry friendship
You know what they say,, friends that prank together stay together
(Though I guess it's less pranking together and more each other.. oh well)
The war spans the rest of the rehearsal period,, each one a (probably sloppy) attempt to one-up the last
It's fun
And better yet it's mostly harmless
Mostly...
There was that one time a bucket barely missed your head when Z was attempting to douse you in glitter
At least you would've had a concussion in style ??
Anyway,, the prank war was pretty much harmless
No fatal wounds were received which has to count as a win,, right ??
You both made it to opening night unharmed !!
And someone seemed to pick up on your disgruntled attitude during dance rehearsals because suddenly there were a lot more breaks and in depth dance breakdowns
And wouldn't you know it,, the ensemble began picking everything up 12x faster
A greater miracle you've never seen
And if by opening night the prank wars are somehow still going..
Well,, the glint in Z's eyes whenever they catch yours tells you more than enough
You're in for a treat

asking and receiving (bonus below readmore)
[ID: A black and white, digital Trigun comic of Vash and Wolfwood. In the first panel is a close up of Wolfwood's mouth as he says, "Vash". Accompanying it is a close up shot of Vash's eye, widen and cheeks flushed. Wolfwood presses a knee against the open space between Vash's legs and says, "Tell me everything you want from me." Wolfwood's face is equally as flushed. He continues to say, "I'll give it to you. Everything." As he talks, a wide shot shows the both of them in white space. Vash is sitting, leaning a little back with both hands pressed against the surface he's sitting on. Wolfwood is in his white dress shirt, stripped of the blazer. He's still leaning in with one knee in between Vash's spread legs, his right hand touching Vash's lips and his left hand behind his back.
The shot closes in on Vash's mouth and Wolfwood's hand against it, pressing down on the lower lip as he says, "You have to ask though. Go on." His hand moves down to Vash's chin, gently holding it. With a shy and uncertain expression, Vash hesitantly asks, "Um... K... Kiss... Please?" Wolfwood, without wasting a second, leans in and kisses him and indulges by pressing deeper, eliciting a small noise of surprise from Vash.
Wolfwood moves away from Vash first and with a smile, asks, "What else?" Vash tugs on Wolfwood's left sleeve, wordlessly budging Wolfwood to give him his hand that was still behind his back. In the next panel, Vash utters, "Hold me..?" He's holding Wolfwood's left hand with his own while his right hand is reaching for his waist. Wolfwood complies, moving his left hand to Vash's shoulder and his right hand continues to touch Vash's cheek. Wolfwood asks again, "What else?"
More comfortable now, Vash leans in to kiss Wolfwood. Wolfwood catches him immediately, pressing his thumb against Vash's lips to stop him before demanding, "Hey. Ask." Vash looks back in surprise and Wolfwood meets his eye with a quiet, insistent look. They're quiet for a moment before Vash leans in again and curtly requests, "Kiss. Me." Wolfwood says "Good", smiling as he lifts his hand away, and meets Vash's lips. In the next shot, Wolfwood had adjusted his position, sitting on Vash's thigh. The hand that was once on Vash's cheek has moved its way to Vash's nape, pushing away the collar of his jacket with his pinky. His other hand continues to grip on Vash's shoulder. Still kissing, Wolfwood asks again, "What else?"
In the next shot, Vash is starting to turn, moving Wolfwood with him. Vash asks, "Let me on top of you?" Wolfwood says, "Mhm" before asking again, "What else?" The next panel shows a close look of Vash's face. He's looking down, flushed and shy just as he had been at the beginning, but now, more decisive. Vash asks, "Wolfwood... Let me have you..?" A panel of Wolfwood taking Vash's hand into his, pulling it towards his chest. The next panel shows Wolfwood lying down where Vash had laid him. Vash's hand is on Wolfwood's chest, covering the cross of his rosary while Wolfwood's hand lingers against his, loosely pressing Vash's hand in place. He looks up at Vash with a shy smile of his own, flushed cheeks. He says, "All yours."
A panel shows a close up of Vash's tender gaze before he leans down to be closer to Wolfwood. The final shot is a front view of their positions, Vash's face turned away from the viewer; Vash is leaning over Wolfwood who's lying down with his right leg draped over Vash's legs. Wolfwood's left hand holds onto Vash's left arm. With finality, Vash says, "...Mine." End ID]
[ID: A follow up bonus comic in a looser, sketchier style. They're laying comfortably in bed when Vash asks, "What was that earlier?" referecing to the start of the previous comic. Wolfwood glances away and says, "To get you used to it. Asking. And getting what you ask for. Since you're alwasy hesitant about it." Vash's eyes widen, tight lipped. Wolfwood continues, "Knowing you, it'll be a tough habit to break..." When he says this, Vash can't help but laugh, unable to deny it. Wolfwood slowly brings a hand to Vash's cheek and continues to say, "So I'll keep trying -- whatever ways I can... to get it through your thick skull." Vash takes Wolfwood's hand with his, kissing the the palm gently. Wolfwood's eyes soften and holding onto Vash's cheek, he leans in to try for a kiss. Vash says, "Hey..." before stopping Wolfwood's lips with the back of his hand, a smug look on his face, "Ask." Wolfwood's embarrassed and with little irritation, asks, "Really?" Vash smiles, saying, "You're in need of practice too." They pause for a moment, Wolfwood looking contemplatively, before he's leaning in again, asking, "May I please kiss you?" Vash looks him in the eyes and says, "Yes." The comic ends with a "chu", indicating an off-panel kiss. End ID]
