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. ]

no subject
What are you gonna do?
[Sora is as trusting as ever.]
no subject
[ His hands hover over Sora's ears. Vanitas takes a deep breath and closes his eyes. Focus. Concentrate. Remember the shape of the ear... What shape it is supposed to be.
Because transfiguraton is what he has been working on. So, for a short time, Sora wll have regular ears instead of his puca ones. ]
no subject
[Hopefully it's only for a short moment that Sora has to hold still. That sort of thing really isn't one of his strong suits. But in a moment Sora feels the familiar strange tickle of Vanitas' magic and...]
Huh? Huh?!
[Sora's hands go up to where his rabbit ears were and then down to his hair and then to his normal regular ears.]
Huh!
[WHAT. HOW.]
no subject
Don't tell me you're disappointed.
[ Though... Vanitas isn't super accustomed to this magic yet. So he's a bit tired. Hence why he leans back against a tree. ]
It's not permanent.
no subject
[Sora had spent a whole night in pain and headaches only to have the rabbit ears grow in the place of his actual ears on the top of his skull. So it feels strange to suddenly have them back to normal and he touches at them gently like they might go poof just like that.]
How long does it last for?
no subject
Not sure. Suppose we'll find out. At least it won't hurt when your ears turn back.
[ In maybe an hour or two they might poof back into place. Though this isn't an illusion. However Vanitas can do that instead. Once more he swats away at some butterflies. ]
no subject
[Witches are amazing... Sora was just getting used to having his rabbit ears but this is alright too. Sora shakes his hair out a little and fusses with it.
Then he looks back at Vanitas and tilts his head.]
Is it me or is there are a lot of butterflies bothering you today?
no subject
[ He makes a face and sticks out his tongue. Vanitas doesn't understand it, but isn't going to really question it at this time. ]
Anyway. Just enjoy 'em while it lasts, brat.
no subject
Looks like you're turning into a bonafide princess or something, Vanitas.
[He's joking!]
But, thanks. It kind of feels nice to be normal again for a little bit.
no subject
[ At least he takes the teasing in jest. The idea of him being a princess is. Laughable. ]
As for normal? How are you remotely normal?
no subject
... While precisely proving Vanitas' point in general, here.]
Hey, I'm normal enough? Come on!
no subject
[ He is totally proving Van's point. Van reaches over before he can think to stop himself and ruffles Sora's hair. ]
You're playing with bugs.
no subject
Is Vanitas okay? He's never done anything like that before...]
Uhh? I guess I am. [Heh.] Even if they like you more than me.
no subject
There's just a lot on his mind and Vanitas is somewhat distracted. ]
Do you really need to point that out? You're the sweeter one of us. They should like you beter.
no subject
The butterfly on the yellow flower flutters away and Sora takes that moment to pluck the flower from the bush before standing again. He twirls it around in his fingers.
Being called sweeter... Sora might have the slightest of a blush on his cheeks.]
But there's something different about you right now, maybe? The butterflies are flocking to you.
no subject
Nothing's -
[ He huffs and looks away. Vanitas had been about to say that nothing is different about him. There is. There's something very different about him now, a dramatic shift in his paradigm that he's still processing. ]
It's not something that would make me attract butterflies.
no subject
... Yet.]
Vanitas?
[Curiousity pricks at him as he tilts his head to try and see Vanitas' expression a little closer. After their misunderstanding, Sora's been a little cautious about things but he still can't help it. He wants to ask.]
Did something else happen then?
no subject
...Yes. Something happened.
[ Though he won't give up what just yet. ]
no subject
... What a day!]
What happened? Hm? Hm?
[He's being so nosy!]
no subject
Knock that off.
[ Don’t look at him, brat. ]
Why do you want to know?
no subject
Because it's not everyday that you ruffle my hair like that. Or have actual butterflies flocking around you.
[He still can't place it, this calmness or change in Vanitas.]
no subject
[ Maybe pointing some of these things out isn’t a good idea? Vanitas may end up goignon the defensive here. ]
no subject
Hey...! It's not a problem, I'm just curious.
[It was nice being treated nice.]
no subject
It... Happened a little after our fight.
[ Well that is a start? ]
no subject
After our fight?
[The offer of Sora listening is there, but he's not sure if Vanitas actually wants to say more or not.]
Was it because of that or...?
