My brother likes cowboys. I guess when I saw this one I was feeling nostalgic?

( For a guy who tries to kill you and then burns himself to a crisp rather than admit he was wrong, you know how it goes. Vash doesn't even let his thoughts turn that way though, resolutely corralling them away from anything painful or sore with both booze and sheer stubborness. )

And then one of the kids in the orphanage said that Halloween had to be spooky, and cowboys weren't very scary - which, actually some of them could so be scary, depending on if they were a good cowboy or a bad cowboy - but anyway! So I had to fix it. And ghosts are freaky, right? I think if I ran into a ghost I'd be at least a little startled. So, cowboy ghost.

( Wisely. Because it made sense to him. )
