( Repairs and Roofing )
[ Should anyone ask Vanitas about why he would bother repairing anything, he'll simply tell them to mind their own business. To be frank, the pay isn't too bad and it isn't like the work is overly difficult. He's not attempting to be particularly helpful or aid anyone so that their homes won't start leaking from damaged rooftops... It's something else entirely. Learning how to repair the rooftops of these homes is actually practical. This would be a skill that he can use in the future.
Thus Vanitas can be seen doing various tasks related to repairs throughout the entire month. Perhaps he is bringing shingles and other materials to the worksites with a levitation spell. Or maybe Vanitas is on a roof ripping the damaged parts off and tossing them aside ( look out below! ) before putting the new pieces into place.
Whatever the case, he seems rather fixated on doing the task at hand. ]
( Veggie Tales )
[ When he had heard the request, Vanitas had wondered how vegetables manage to get up and just leave the garden. Then again, this is a magical sort of place so maybe they literally did grow legs and just walk away. However, nothing had really prepared him for this? Right about now he's stuck in a bit of a situation! He's definitely holding onto a piece of cat-shaped broccoli while dog-shaped heads of lettuce runs around his feet excitedly. ]
Go on. Shoo! Go away!
[ Vanitas is even trying to kick at it a little in order to make them stop. Ironically the broccoli doesn't seem to mind the ruckus. It even bleps out a tongue. Van is now giving that thing a look. ]
This is stupid.
( Clean Up & Clear Out: 2 options )
[ Just throwing things out in the street isn't very nice. Granted, Vanitas doesn't particularly care one way or another, but something does rub him the wrong way. As he's wandering the streets, Vanitas is picking up items here and there from the piles. It's about that time that he realizes that not everything that's being thrown out needs to be. Some of the items aren't actually broken at all or just need minor repairs. These people are literally throwing out things that can still be of use. Now that just doesn't sit well with him at all. So what does Vanitas do? Out of spite he starts to repair some of the items and set them off to the side - only for other residents to take notice...
Though eventually he leaves this endeavor - when too many people start following him around or asking him to fix items with magic - to find large piles of unrepairable junk. Their blocking roads in part and entrances to homes. More than anything, it's a complete eyesore. So Vanitas doesn't see anything wrong with burning it all down in a controlled fashion! ]
( Prurient Petals: No Pollen Shenanigans )
Not letting this crap get me a second time.
[ At least that's the idea. Maybe he wouldn't have thought to come back out this way considered what had happened prior. However now it is a matter of pride. Vanitas is stubborn and he's not about to let a plan and its unique pollen get the better of him. Nope! He is going out there with protection this time around - primarily a cloth tied around his mouth. ]
Stupid flowers are going to get what's coming to them.
[ Which anyone can see with the way that he swings Void Gear around. He brings it down onto one of those stupidly thick roots protruding from the ground and begins to hack away. ]
( Other Locations )
[ Over all, Vanitas is not an overly idle person. One of the place that he can always be found is at the library studying up on various types of magic. He tends to take to practicing magic as well. Right now his primary focus as been on Divination and Illusions for this particular month.
Vanitas slips out of the city periodically to be out in the Wilde since there is always a need out there. He can always work out his anger and aggression out by patrolling around the settlements and getting rid of any infected creatures. Vanitas might be a Witch, but his physical prowess and brute strength is nothing to look down upon.
At the settlements, he lingers only for what he calls "practice." By "practice," Vanitas seems to tend to minor injuries of the people there or even any Mirrorbound that won't give him a hard time about it. This can be anything from cuts to burns to even some minor sprains. ]
( Anything Else! )
[ If nothing above seems to jive, but you want to do something with Vanitas either just post something and I'll roll with it or hit me up to plan something out. I'm pretty much down for anything! Just poke me on plurk or on Discord. ]

i have no idea about roofing either. read an article real quick :' )
sometimes that is his Bondmate thank youso he does take notice. Honestly they do have the easier job of just getting the shingles on the rooftops. All of the prep work has been done by the professionals. ]Hold on, hold on.
[ One thing at a time! Vanitas does shoot up the shingles, though carefully. He has no desire to drop and potentially damage any. So up they go! ]
Nails will come in a minute.
winging it buddies!
Got them. Be careful sending up the nails.
[A bunch of those things raining down would be a bad idea.]
no subject
Really? You think I don't know that?
[ As if he needs to be told to be careful! ]
no subject
It's just a precaution! Don't get too worked up about it!
no subject
[ There's no levitating the nails. Rather Vanitas takes his time to retrieve them and to get onto the roof proper. It should be enough to tide them over for a couple of rows, right? ]
You do got this, right?
no subject
[Croix had set up a safety harness for herself, and there was a toe board providing a walkway for Vanitas to reach where she was.]
Thank you, though, for your concern.
[Her tone might have been slightly sarcastic.]
no subject
[ Just gonna line up this sheet of shingles and start tap tap tapping on the hammer. ]
no subject
If it makes you feel better, I can blame someone else if I fall off. Perhaps the foreman?
[At least he's pulling his own weight and helping.]
no subject
You mean the one that took off the moment that it looked like we knew what we were doing?
no subject
Exactly! [Croix made a mocking sort of pout, holding the sides of her face.] How dare he, honestly? It's professionally negligent!
no subject
You'll find that it happens a lot. They'll ask us to do all of this and then disappear when we start diligently working.
no subject
How negligent. How exploitable. I think I'll take a few supplies I've been needing, then.
no subject
Did you just get here or something?
no subject
That's correct. Very recently, in fact.
no subject
Did you come in with a group?
[ Vanitas doesn't really recall a new group coming in. Have patterns suddenly change? or has he been too preoccupied to notice? ]
no subject
If you're asking if there were other new Mirrorbound there, yes there were. No one else from my world, however.
no subject
[ A shrug. ]
Must've not been paying attention.
no subject
[She continues working for several moments, before realizing...]
So. What do you call yourself, anyway?
no subject
It's Vanitas.
[ At least he doesn't have issues introducing himself. ]
no subject
[And... there's not much more to say than that.]
no subject
[ Not that there is much more one CAN say after that! ]
no subject
[Said with only half as much indignation as usual!]
idk what happened to this one either
[ Titles are easier than using names. Names can form attachments! ]
Re: idk what happened to this one either
The title is usually reserved for people of learning or for teachers. I happen to be both.
no subject
[ Like what sort of specialization? What sort of learning? ]
