So I wasn't the only who was saddened by the ending of DoC? It actually took me a while to realise why that ending made me sad (given that it was essentially a good outcome for Vincent, not to mention the world had been saved), until I realised it was because while Vincent didn't have to sacrifice himself for the Planet, Chaos did (well, went dormant again - you know what I mean). I always wanted a fic about Vincent saying good bye to Chaos since then, and I guess this is the closest I've got so far, so...
