    Summary

    "You keep everyone at arm’s length, like they’re grenades about to blow. But every time shit goes down, you come running to me with that annoying look in your eyes…” His voice trailed off, blue eyes instinctively darting down to her lips. “Like you’re one push away from either shooting me or kissing me.”

    Lady's eyes widened ever-so-slightly at the last part, but she quickly tried to mask it, shoving his hands away. “You really think you’re that irresistible?”

    “I think you hate how much you’re tempted.”

    NOTE: This is based on the 2025 Netflix Adaptation. NO relation to the video games, or the 2007 anime (if there is, it's purely coincidental). So, if you didn't like Netflix's take and/or its portrayal of the Dante and Lady, proceed accordingly. Thank you!

    [UPDATE 13/5/2026: BONUS CHAPTER POSTED]

    Summary

    Once a year. One bottle.
    Two ghosts.
    She bleeds. He pours. They pretend it's nothing.
    But ten years is a long time to spend it running.

    Disclaimer:
    I do not own Devil May Cry. If I did, this would've been canon—and therefore never written here.

    Set loosely across the years between DMC3 and DMC5, trying to make sense of Lady's evolution over time.
    Canon-compliant until it isn't.
    Angst, restraint, and some measure of healing.
    Thanks for reading—feedback is everything.

    Summary

    “It’s okay. It actually made me think that I wanted to ask you something.” Meryl finally resurfaces, slightly flushed now, her fringe sticking up like she caught a charge from rubbing her face against Vash’s chest. Vash can’t help an endeared grin, and can no less stop himself from patting down her hair than stop the suns from rising every morning. He lets the soft strands glide through his knuckles, then marvels at the way Meryl sighs and leans into his curled fingers. “You’re distracting me again… Do you have to do that every time I’m trying to ask you a question?”

    “Nobody’s stopping you,” Vash murmurs. Meryl’s lower lip juts out, but she doesn’t seem truly incensed. She snatches his hand from her face and presses her lips against it in a furious kiss, then sandwiches it between her cheek and the pillow.

    “Focus,” Meryl insists. Vash’s eyes zero in on her face. He focuses. Meryl’s lip twitches at the corner. “Would you tell me about her? Rem.”

    ---

    Meryl Stryfe, the woman who made Vash the Stampede want to stay, finds new ways to return his agency to him, day after day.
