After watching the series I came across this fanfiction and thought the extra depth it created in Vash and Knives's arguement was perfect. It's a post-series fiction with Vash and Knives playing chess and discussing their disagreement without guns. ;) Anyways, I thought others might enjoy it, and although I could have postato it as a link, I felt it deserved the higher recognition it would receive as a soapbox.

So here we go: Spiders and farfalle

It wasn't the first time. It wouldn't be the last. But they continued, on and on and on, searching for a clear reconciliation that never seemed forthcoming....
