More Vox headcanons, because I'm absolutely suffering.
Vox x Reader Migraines Headcanons (Fluff)
So, I'm pretty sure I've already seen someone do this. But now I'm going to put my own take out there, being that I have a migraine right now.
This goes under the assumption that you and him are in a (relatively) stable relationship. Nothing crazy, but you aren't absurdly toxic and fighting all the time.
- It starts when, one day, you two are alone in his big office thing. Vox isn't aware of your migraines at this point; either you haven't told him to spare his feelings, or they just haven't come up yet. Regardless...
- You enter his room, bringing him his morning coffee. Now, his big evil lair is normally pleasantly dim to you, but now, it feels like every single LED is blinking at you for attention, or, more accurately, screaming in your face.
- You approach Vox with the intent to speak with him, but every step is really heavy, and you feel dizzy. Vox hears you enter, but turns back to look at you only when you've come closer.
- The moment he looks at you, you wince. His screen is so painfully bright, and it doesn't help when he starts talking.
- The two of you talk, and you're happy, despite the pain. Vox notices that something's up, but he doesn't comment until you hand him his mug and start clutching your head, trying to cover your eyes or look away subtly. He shuts up for a moment, squinting.
- "What's the matter, dear?" he asks - he sounds more confused than he does concerned, or perhaps a little upset. Has he done something wrong? Why aren't you looking at him? You've never done this before, and for some reason, it looks to him like you're in actual, physical pain from looking at him. That's gonna hurt his ego.
- But little does he know, that's the truth. You turn back a little and begin explaining it to him, looking rather guilty for not having explained it already.
- Vox is just a little offended that you thought he'd be upset if you told him, but figures that goes against his point, and doesn't tell you.
- Now, Vox is very work-oriented, not to mention very busy—he's going to have to get back to work soon enough, there's no doubt about that. But that doesn't mean he doesn't care.
- He turns you away, thanking you dismissively for bringing him his coffee.
- Later on though, in secret, he spares a little while to shower the internet for information on these—he'd never dealt with them personally, even while alive, and he didn't care enough about anyone else to have bothered looking them up before. But now, at last, he had a reason to look into them.
- He calls up a few doctors, pulls a few strings, and threatens a couple of employees to get to work, producing whatever they possibly can to help with your problem
- He surprises you with it all later in the day, once he gets off work. He brings you just about every possible remedy he's been able to find—medicine, earmuffs, caffeine, ice packs, even a blindfold!
- You're surprised by all of this effort—Vox doesn't seem like the type, does he? If you bring it up to him, he just plays it off coyly, telling you how he couldn't possibly just let his darling suffer like that. On the outside, he sounds like a smug bastard. On the inside, though, there's some truth to what he's saying.
- Eventually, the two of you end up hanging out. Vox would even go through the trouble of dimming his screen for you; in fact, he'd even shut it off entirely, just for you. He can still see you just fine due to the cameras inbuilt into his monitor; it's much preferable to having your pretty face look away from him in pain.
- You sleep peacefully that night next to Vox. He even massages your temples without asking. Vox isn't normally so smooth, but he finds success in it just thus once.

Next-level-off-chart Cross Referencing™.
Let me get you emotional.
In '98 version Vash's eyes are teal, wether Naï's are blue.
Stampede's Vash has now blue eyes, and during episode 1, I just thought "Aw, that's a nice reference to have the inner lining of his coat (and the prosthetic arm) to be teal, like his old eye colour".
Then I realised irises' hues didn't just change. They got swapped. Naï is the one with teal eyes now.
So, welp, now I'm drowning in an ocean of Feels over the fact that Vash's coat is red like Rem's geraniums AND teal like Naï's eyes (and the arm, let's not forget the arm).
Being the turquoise on the inside shows also another aspect: it's closer to him, the inner part, the one in direct contact. The mechanical arm is literally attached, and it's strong, tough, reliable.
Right now these're the only things that Vash can have to keep him feeling connected to his big brother.
Both in the good and in the bad way.
The love of a link and the sorrow of a rupture.
The happiness of the memories and the cruelty of the present.
A reminder and a mission.
Despair and Hope.
