An open letter
Dear bad Knives x Meryl writers,
Knives being a psychotic killer and hating her species is not something that Meryl can overlook and love him in spite of it. It's just something that will make her not love him. No, not even if he thinks she's an okay human. I mean, really. "I think all black people are inferior and need to die. Oh, I didn't mean you." Substitute "black" with "human". Could you love someone like this? Also, come up with better reasons for Meryl to switch her affections from Vash to Knives. People aren't totally bound to "their type" of love interest, but you'd think being all in love with someone and then switching to someone who's everything the first one isn't would create a bigger stir. Think harder.
On the other hand, don't. Just write about them having loveless yet really hot sex. That's about the closest you're going to get to in-character.
Plzdiekthx,
Me.
