Interesting note, but Sorin's question is something Vash SHOULD already have an answer to and potentially not even be phased by in the slightest depending on what point in his timeline he's from, as it's near-identical to the initial problem posed by Knives about butterflies and spiders.
Oh I'm aware of the similarity to the butterfly/spider problem. I even loosely referenced it in my post. Problem is, Knives was totally right - it's impossible to save both. Vash didn't have an answer to that problem then - and I don't think he does now.
Edit: It's also slightly worse than the butterfly/spider problem because it frames Vash as the potential murderer, which I'm pretty sure Knives never brought up. I think I had originally planned to mention that in my post, but I may have forgotten to.
If he was attempting to make Vash reconsider anything at all, it really shouldn't work.
Well duh. I think I've even blatantly stated in the OOC that it'll be impossible to change Vash's mind on any of this. He's been presented with plenty of good arguments over the years as to why his logic doesn't work. But it doesn't matter - because he's dead-set in his ideals and he'll never change.

@Dead Cruiser: I'm going to have to go with the others' suggestions and vote that you edit your post so that this never happened since at the moment you've thoroughly ticked off and alienated enough player characters to the point they have to attempt to kill off yours or else it would be OOC. Also the fact that this is turning into a huge cluster-ck situation and I don't want it to deteriorate any further, along with the fact that your character is powergaming to an extent.
I'll see if I can edit my post tonight, as well.
Edit: Oops, didn't realize how far back we were going. I guess I'm leaving that blank until everyone in front of me edits.
