Mine Forever by KBstories for spicecandy
Fandoms: Trigun Stampede & Trigun Stargaze (Anime 2023-2026), Trigun Maximum (Manga)
14 Jul 2026

Summary
“Around him, the ambient pressure changes. The air becomes charged with static, countless branches overhead rustling in the wind arising. A storm, rolling in.
Vash doesn't notice any of it. He's too busy staring at the root-like growths beginning to poke from the bark: midnight purple and speckled in a teal glow, they shyly wrap around his fingers. He… recognizes that glow. Has seen swooping lines of it carved into a wide-eyed gaze, staring back in mirrored surprise.
Vash.”
In which one Vash sees death coming and another Vash offers him love and peace, at the end of all things. Or: Vash the Stampede group therapy, round 2 (gone sexual) (gone R18).

Fall Together by KBstories
Fandoms: Trigun (Anime & Manga 1995-2008), Trigun Maximum (Manga)

Summary
“Wolfwood is lounging in his usual spot on the couch, head cushioned on one armrest and feet propped on the other, when he plucks an unlit cigarette from his mouth and suggests:
‘How ’bout a wedding?’
His tone is casual, explorative. Just another idea among many he and Vash bounce around when the air around the orphanage grows stagnant beyond the desert heat outside and an irrational sense of claustrophobia starts to set in.”
A superhuman outlaw and an ex-priest ex-assassin aren’t the types to marry — or are they?

Travel Well by KBstories
Fandoms: Trigun Stampede & Trigun Stargaze (Anime 2023-2026), Trigun Maximum (Manga)
25 Apr 2026
Tags
Summary
“Everything happens all at once: lightning strikes; every Plant marking on his body awakens at once; the void disintegrates in a burst of feathers; their softness engulfs him, wings upon wings upon wings; Vash gasps awake from deep unconsciousness—
—to a familiar azure sky stretching endlessly in every direction.
Two suns, parent and child. A sand-hazed horizon. White, fluffy clouds… Almost familiar, then.
No Man's Land. Vash is home again.”
In which one Vash needs an out and another Vash needs someone to talk to. Or: the best group therapy is that which Vash the Stampede can give himself.

Desperate Things by KBstories for TradingJack

Summary
“‘So, what am I s’posed to look out for? Sinners? Signs and wonders? The devil themself, lurkin’ ’round the corner to lure me into a life’a degeneracy?’
The expression of the stranger in white lights up like Wolfwood has presented him with the most wondrous gift.
‘Very glad you asked. Angels, sir! Real life angels! Well, you’re most likely to know them under the colloquial term Plant, but that is so... technical, don’t you think? Unbearably plain. It is divinity made flesh we are talking about, after all!’”
In which some people worship Plants as angels of salvation and Nicholas D. Wolfwood comes to regret not making this particular cult his problem sooner rather than never.

Summary
“I see how it is. That feeling, this... yearning that's bigger than one lifetime could contain. It's not a figment of a homesick mind, or a pining man's heart. It's them. We were meant to be, weren't we, Vash?”
In which Vash and Wolfwood get to share their tomorrows, in one lifetime of many.

Summary
"If things only stay exactly like this, nothing will go wrong.
Nobody will get hurt."
Or: Ilya Rozanov has already lost a loved one to suicide. He can’t let it happen again.

Summary
“Sprawled belly-down, Wolfwood is little more than tousled black hair and flashes of bare skin under largely kicked-off covers. The rhythm of his breathing gently shifts the slope of his back; big inhales and whuffling exhales that Vash teasingly calls snoring when he wants Wolfwood to get all huffy about it, and a miracle in the hushed moments after the day has ended and all there is to do is fall asleep together, chest to chest. Heartbeat to heartbeat.
That feeling — this sight — the deep-rooted joy it causes — is something Vash got impossibly close to losing. To never experiencing crucial parts of it.
It’s the holiest thing he has.”
Vash and Wolfwood enjoy a late morning of their tomorrows.

04 Jul 2025
Tags
Summary
“‘Ms. Alien Queen, if I may... Who is Red Riot? A War Generation Hero like you and Mr. Bakugou?’
The question halts Mina in the tracks of her anecdote, a tale about the U.A. of old and the squad of friends she went Pro with nearly two decades ago. An auditorium of the academy’s best and brightest hangs onto every word on her lips – the presence of a Top 5 Hero tends to have that effect on them.
Within the class, murmurs arise; in the far corner, Katsuki glances up from the papers he’s grading, right brow twitching upwards. They both must share the same thought:
How can they forget about Red Riot?”
In which Kirishima Eijirou loses his way and finds it again with the power of friendship.

Summary
"Vash, hair still wet from a shower and back in the JuLai-red varsity jacket he rarely — if ever — takes off, continues typing away on his phone, utterly unfazed by the sudden appearance of a man clad entirely in black a handful of steps away.
‘Good?’ he asks, giving Wolfwood a glance and a small smile like his day has been brightened by Wolfwood’s mere presence in it.
At least, that’s how Wolfwood tends to feel around Vash. Their shoulders brush as he walks past him, automatically grabbing Vash’s sports equipment to take it home. ‘Mh. Let’s go.’"
Vash 'the Stampede' Saverem and Nicholas D. Wolfwood have been living in each other’s pockets for years, and know all there is to know about the other.
Or do they?

Summary
“Vash, already an accomplice to Wolfwood’s insignificant crime sans the intention to rat him out to Home’s authorities, chuckles quietly. ‘Same to you.’ And: ‘C’mon.’
There’s a smoke detector hidden in the ceiling right where you stand, he doesn’t say.
The shadows here are too restless for the peace of mind you crave, a possible, too-honest alternative.
Instead, Vash simply nods towards a hallway rarely traveled to his right, Wolfwood’s left, and Wolfwood shrugs and follows, no explanation needed.”
Vash the Stampede and Nicholas D. Wolfwood reconnect with each other’s kindness after tragedy.

Death and All His Friends by KBstories
Fandoms: Dragon Age: The Veilguard (Video Game), Dragon Age (Video Games)
20 Nov 2024
Tags
Summary
"Crying silently, hurting in solitude, is an invaluable skill for assassins such as Rook and Lucanis to master. Murder is a messy business to deal in, and rare is the mark that will accommodate a bleeding heart when life and death dance so delicately on a knife’s edge.
This? It’s gut-wrenching. It’s loud. It’s damning, and briefly, Rook entertains the delirious hope Viago is nowhere near so the Fifth Talon will not witness his former charge shatter under pressure."
Or: Lucanis and Rook learn to enjoy the future they gave everything to save.

Soldier On by KBstories for Spacelullaby

Summary
“The new voice is deep, the kind of rough that settles pleasantly in Vash’s head without outright interrupting his thoughts. The confidence harbored in that handful of words could quickly prove obnoxious – like an old world radio host, or a pastor. Crossing the bridge to the entry plug with his Evangelion’s name on it, Vash throws a glance to the glass cube of the control center far above. A figure clad in the telltale gray of MOND’s admin staff gives him a lazy salute.
Black hair. Black sunglasses. A man that distance reduces to shapes and primary colors... and that voice, of course.
‘Name’s Nicholas D. Wolfwood. Do keep on walkin’, REM-01, we got a rampant act of God to put down out there.’”
In which Wolfwood’s new assignment is as troublesome as the moniker Vash the Stampede suggests - and a lot more life-changing than he (or Vash for that matter) ever expected.

Sweet Disposition [Podfic] by KBstories
Fandoms: Trigun Stampede & Trigun Stargaze (Anime 2023-2026)
25 Sep 2024
Tags
Summary
"By themselves those impressions wouldn’t be enough to trigger this inkling of… wrongness clinging to Vash like desert dust. For how prone he is to depressive mood swings, Vash smiles often and everywhere. No matter if he’s getting shot at, betrayed, kicked to the dirt and spit on — he picks himself up and laughs and keeps going, keeps outrunning the shadow of his brother towards a perpetually uncertain horizon.
Nobody wears fake cheer that well without something to hide."
Glimpse by glimpse, the gang pieces together who Vash the Stampede really is.

Summary

Grim-faced, Kirishima Eijirou fastens the black-steel guard around his jaw. Never again, he had sworn that night his best friend disappeared. I won’t ever fail you again, Katsuki."

Summary
“Bakugou wakes up.
‘Hunter’, hisses a man, ‘We don’t want your kind here.’ Drool drips from fangs too large for a human mouth to contain, eyes blood-crazed and hazy. The language of beasts is said to be indiscernible, made of labored breaths and shrieking, bone-chilling cries. Night is approaching and the Hunt ahead yet to properly begin; any lines drawn now remain blurry at best, their final shape to be defined much, much later.
A long night, a night without end, as some fools believe. Bakugou is no fool.”
A city overrun by beasts, a night that may last forever - and two Hunters fighting for a chance to see the sun rise together.

Summary
"Bakugou hates Instagram. Yes, he has an account anyway. Yes, he still uses that app daily, sue him. No, he doesn't follow the only account that genuinely brightens his day—
—but he does have a not-insignificant amount of the videos bookmarked. Videos that feature three essential things:
A piano, a red-haired man, and cats. Lots and lots of cats."
Bakugou the art conservator and Kirishima the pianist have admired each other for years, they share a love for cats and classical music... and they've never met.

renegades [Podfic] by KBstories

28 Dec 2023
Tags
Summary
"Into the dark, that thick, deadly silence, Izuku simply states: 'I'm here.'
A rush of breath, relief. A brief glimpse of crimson eyes, Katsuki leaning out of the gap between two buildings to visually confirm it's him. Scarlet stains his arms up to his rolled-up sleeves, hand to elbow.
That one glance is all it takes. Izuku closes the distance, more and more red revealed upon his approach: Red boots, red gears around muscled shoulders, red spikes of hair, blood, blood, blood, running down rock-hewn cracks on skin. Red eyes, squinting hazily at Izuku.
Red Riot, Musutafu's most wanted vigilante."
In which Christmas traditions and long-kept secrets collide, and Midoriya Izuku is there to pick up the pieces.
