[ open ] Darkness lets the stars shine bright

Who: Vanitas + You!!
When: All of Mareuer
Where: Various
What: Open + Closed Prompts
Warnings: TBA



( Familiar Shopping )

[ Vanitas has noticed that instead of having a Bond, plenty of local Witches seem to have Familiars. Do they prefer them over Bonds? He doesn't really know and Van isn't going to bother to ask that question. His Unversed, that one lone Flood, has been sort of serving as a Familiar since it had arrived. However, Van doesn't particularly like it. Okay, so he kind of hates the thing. Other people seem to think that it's cute. He doesn't get it.

That's why he's entertaining the idea of an actual Familiar. So Vanitas has made his way down to some shops, finding one that specializes in this sort of thing. He peruses the contents, making faces here an there; Vanitas isn't impressed by the selection. ]


Cats. Dogs. Rats.

[ That's where he's at in his search. Though perhaps at one point he does hold a hedgehog, somewhat entertained by it. ]


( Library Visits )

[ As always, Vanitas can always be found in the library from time to time. In fact, several times a week. He never reads for recreational purposes, oh no. Rather, he reads to fill the time. Fill the time and also study different kinds of magic. He can always be found practicing healing spells - progressively getting better at them.

There's a lot of magic here that doesn't exist where he's from. This particular instance, Vanitas is practicing Transmutation and Divination. Some days he can be found with a mirror, glaring at it as if he could break it with his mind. Other days he has broken objects lined up - anything from glasses/mugs to some tools he's found lying around.

Hey. He likes having multiple skillsets. ]



( A Flood's Day Out )

[ The Flood that Vanitas has isn't on a leash or stuck in a crate. It is allowed to meander about on its own. It does, however, have a collar and a tag about its neck just so people realize it does belong to someone. Vanitas doesn't actually keep track of it, completely unaccustomed to doing so - never needing to.

That being said, it likes to create problems for people. Enjoying a nice, quite lunch? Not anymore! That Flood darts up, snatches it, and likely takes off a few feet away to gloat. That new trinket that you just bought? That's gone too.

Vanitas might not be far away. Or maybe you just find it and decide to try to return it. Up to you. ]



( Disney Princess? )

[ Unbeknownst to Vanitas, all that time spent practicing healing magic has apparently left its mark. He doesn't know why this has been happening as of late and it's being met with no small amount of irritation. Here he is, minding his own business in the Coven gardens, and little critters keep coming out to say "hi."

No, really. One moment Vanitas is taking a nap and when he wakes? Maybe it's a stray cat sprawled on him. Sometimes a random squirrel. Today, however, it's a little more extreme. There's a bird in his hair and butterflies fluttering around. A rabbit has seen fit to flop into his lap. ]


Oh come on! Go away! Shoo.

[ Yeah, it doesn't work like that. Vanitas, as a result of his casting practices, apparently has a "calming aura" that he knows nothing about. ]


( Cooking Vani )

[ Back at the house, usually people take turns cooking. Van's helped out a little, though it's mostly with the cleaning. He actually wants to do something this time. So he's in the kitchen, a recipe book on the table. Vanitas is turning the pages, as if trying to decide on something. Though it doesn't look like he's really made up his mind.

This is... Probably going to end badly. For everyone. ]



( Wildcard)

[ As always, if there is no prompt that is to your liking, feel free to hit me up on plurk or discord and we can figure something out! I can even write a closed prompt no problem. ]

Hey, c'mon, I didn't flock towards anyone! I was sweet-talked into all of that and I didn't even get anything out of it.

[Well, except for some cryptic stuff about his past, but still.]

Plus you guys really didn't wanna see me get my hands dirty. I told everyone a thousand times that I'm not cut out for fighting, especially with Arpeggio. She's delicate!

Ack-!

[The ruffling is hard enough that it jostles Sora out of his immediate thoughts and instead makes Sora swat a bit at Vanitas' rough fingers. Okay, he liked that gentle ruffling from before!

But it does make Sora buck up as he fusses and looks back at Vanitas.]


Fine, fine. But you know it sort of looks like you're gonna get a scar.

[!! They've been through this before Sora already thinks and knows that Vanitas does that better! So his cheeks flare and he looks up at the trees.]

Yeah, okay! I know! Maybe it'll look... kinda cool.

[It'll look cool. Sora knows this.]

[ Ienzo's hardly one to anger easily but. The gloating, the gloating! He takes another swing with the book, faster and less hesitant than his first attempt. ]

[Honestly he's kind of glad for the change back to something more familiar between them, even the roughness and teasing.]

Pftt- [His smile comes back as he shakes his head.] No thanks, I don't think I'm cool enough to pull off a look like that.

[With his baby cheeks? Nah.]

They weren't all crispy!

[he huffs at him, ears falling flat in annoyance.]

Besides, now I can make them without any of them burning. It's an improvement!

[Sora snickers. He raises his hands to pat his cheeks.]

I dunno, maybe I should get one of those weird cheek proctors that you wear. Then I'd look awesome.

You... want me to make you pancakes?

[weird request, vanitas.]

But okay- fine!

Whoa, really? It wasn't very comfortable? But I thought armour was supposed to be easy to wear. Guess I'll pass!

[And here Sora thought he wore it to look super edgy. He has to admit to himself that Vanitas really does look better without it, though. Actually he looks nice in normal clothing in general.

Speaking of which Sora should probably look for some more new clothes for himself soon...]

[Zig and zag, bob and weave as much as you want, little Flood! Roxas chases after the creature, leaping over obstacles and around random monsters taking a stroll. The chase is on, and he's going to catch his prey!]

[At least, that's his mindset until the Flood suddenly puddles. He didn't know Floods could do that.]


Wha--? AH!!

[WHUMP! Roxas goes barrelling into the trash can, so fast that it actually gets tipped back upright. Roxas struggles in the can, his tail flailing and feet kicking in the air.]
callmeven: (27)

[personal profile] callmeven 2020-03-09 04:13 am (UTC)(link)
Y-Yeah, I guess...

[only now he's starting to doubt his ability if vanitas is going to judge him now.]

When do you want me to make them? It's best to eat them hot.
twilightskey: (Was that supposed to be a joke?)

[personal profile] twilightskey 2020-03-09 04:57 am (UTC)(link)
[This is just embarrassing. Roxas flails a bit, but it's hard to get his bearings upside down in a trash can.]

[As he struggles, he hears the actual laughing. Oh, he knows that voice.]


Yeah, very funny! Now can you help me out??

Wish I could tell you, dude. Truth is, I don't reaaaaaaally know.

[It was completely different from the first Organization too. Sure, Xigbar and a few of the others were there, but they were more or less in the same old circles they were in before, not to mention he didn't have a keen interest in hanging out with Larxene of all Nobodies.

She was a scary one.]


What about you? I mean, what was the deal with you and the old man?

This world can be especially cruel to someone if they don't follow its rules.

But... I'm sure you know that now.
