Nov Catch-All
Who: Vanitas + Open
When: All throughout November
Where: Various
What: There are some open prompts and also some closed ones in comments. I can write individual starts for anyone who would be interested in threading something out.
Warnings: None, yet
( Magic Practice: All Month )
[ Vanitas has always excelled when it comes to magic. His elemental spellwork has always been top notch. Thus it shouldn't come as a surprise that he's taken to evocation and enchantment as his main fields of "study." Yes, he actually attends classes. Though usually Vanitas tends to stick towards the back, hood always drawn up to keep his face hidden. He doesn't openly question or mock instruction, though his body language always says he's disinterested.
There are moments where he is also found in the library, perusing over textbooks and reading theories. Vanitas also carries around paper that he's scribbling notes in.
Otherwise, he spends his time in the barracks, actually practicing. Be careful, though. There's plenty of fireballs flying to hit the intended target. The air is charged with electricity. And one only mildly irritated Vanitas complaining about how it's just not good enough. ]
( Incompatible: All Month )
[ There is, however, magic that Vanitas has never been taught. Either Xehanort had never bothered or the opportunity never really revealed itself. He's sitting down, out of the way, as he's pulling up the sleeve of his coat. There's a fresh burn there, probably from some earlier practice gone wrong - magic gone awry. ]
Sloppy...
[ He is irritated with himself. His hand hovers over the burn and he takes a deep, focusing breath. Sure enough, the soft glow of a very basic healing spell makes itself known... For three seconds before it just fizzles out. The result is a very, very agitated Vanitas that knocks over anything on the table instead. ]
Why won't it work!?
( Coven Grounds: All Month )
[ He pays very little mind to anyone as he comes and goes about the Coven. They aren't important enough to even catch his notice. However, every once and while one of the unbonded monsters sees him and sees fit to approach him. He throws up a hand and keeps walking. Every time. ]
Not interested.
[ Sometimes this exchange is witnessed by someone else. A witch. Another monster. Maybe someone bonded maybe someone that isn't. Either way they see fit to interject themselves, trying to tell him about the benefits to being bonded to another. Why he should consider it, because in the end it's unavoidable right?
Vanitas is, as always, disinterested. He couldn't care less about these bonds. How can he want something that is just a mockery of what he should have? ]
Why is it you can't get through your little heads that maybe some people are fine the way they are? No, I don't care what you have to say. I don't want it. So back off before I give you a reason to stay away.
[ He'll follow through with the threat, of course. ]
( Unfamiliar Familiars: After Nov 20 )
[ In the past, Vanitas has never bothered to keep track of his Unversed. He's never had to, being connected to them in such a way that he knows where they are at all times. After all, they are a part of him, his broken off emotions. Their entire purpose is to go out and collect more negative energy, whether through natural means or by creating it themselves.
This is why he doesn't keep the lone little Flood by his side. It's free to do as its pleases. The connection is different now, the creature no longer able to replicate or perform its intended functions. However that's not going to stop it for what its nature is.
The item in your hand that you're thinking about buying? Maybe that piece of food that you're about ready to take a bite out of? One moment it's there and the next it's being snatched up by this blue rabbit-looking thing and taking off. Or maybe the Flood is seen scurrying along the streets, pausing only to scare a small child or a baby in a stroller before going about its business once more. ]
( Wildcard )
[ Of course, there is always the option to just do whatever your heart wants if no other prompts inspire. Alternatively, I can write a starter for you or you can get in touch with me at![[plurk.com profile]](https://plurk.com/favicon.ico)

[ Angry? Sure. Vanitas can own angry. But lonely?
Do you see any Hareraisers? No? Not lonely then!No way. He prefers to be left alone!But the crying comment? Oh no. No no no. That will not do. It's enough to have Vanitas sparking. ]
Why don't you just mind your own business!? No one asked you for your opinion!
no subject
[ flat will take a few steps back, trying to make some distance between himself and vanitas. the last thing he wants is to have his head blown off here--it'd be too inconvenient! ]
Well, to each their own, right? I'm not really giving my opinion, though. I guess I'm more...stating the obvious? I'm sorry for making you angry--well, angrier than usual!
no subject
You're not sorry. If you were you wouldn't keep doing it with that dumb expression on your face!
no subject
[ flat himself doesn't seem to be doing much, making sure to keep that distance. his hands are in his pockets, and he looks only a little troubled by the situation. ]
But is this really how you solve your problems? It'd be really inefficient if you ended up killing me, you know?
no subject
[ Yeah, this is how he solves his problems! By beating people to a pulp. ]
no subject
[ yeah, he has already decided to metaphorically attach himself to vanitas. this is just another part of friendship for flat! ]
no subject
[ He doesn't want to be liked. Doesn't need to be liked. Doesn't need friendship! And it doesn't matter if Flat is correct or not. Vanitas doesn't need to hear it! ]
no subject
[ wait. pause. that sounded weird--rewind! ]
Not in that way though. I like you like a friend or like how an owner likes their really angry chihuahua that continues to rip up their furniture.
[ what the fuck ]
no subject
[ Where is this conversation even going? Vanitas is certain he has a headache now... ]
