Okay. This is just a little one-shot that came to my mind earlier today. Any insanity is my fault.

But _____________ is sweeter.

Meryl sighed and glanced at the wall calendar in her apartment. An old Earth holiday was coming up. According to the calendars, February 14th was a special holiday. All the couples at the bars and along the streets were talking about "Valentine's Day" with a fervor that rivaled Milly's fervor for pudding.

[Why can't I just enjoy the holiday like everyone else? Even Milly's in the spirit of things.] Meryl sighed and sat down in her favorite chair. "Well Meryl.the one person you hope would remember.probably won't." she sighed again, closing her eyes to think a little bit. The calendar page in her hand read "February 13".

The next morning, Meryl sat at her desk, writing away as she had been lately. Endless stacks of paper already filed away. Suddenly, Scott, the delivery person, tapped on her desk, trying to get her attention.

"Meryl Stryfe?" She looked up.

"yes?"

"Okay. Making sure I got the right person." Scott placed a vase of flowers on Meryl's desk. "These are for you."Scott pulled a card out of the bag of various cards and letters he always had with him, "And so is this. Happy Valentine's Day Ma'm."

As Scott left, Meryl began to open the card. Written on the inside, in a VERY familiar hand, was something that made Meryl smile.

"My coat is rose red, I'm a doughnut-eater, The flowers are sweet, But Meryl is sweeter. Happy Valentine's Day. Love, Vash"

Meryl smiled the rest of the day.
