Usually when someone gives you a gift it's because they like you. Or think you deserve one. Usually, anyways.

[he's worked very hard to keep his expectations low when vanitas sees the scarf. he could throw it away or burn it with one of those fun fire spells he loves to use, or- or laugh in his face. ven didn't know what to expect from vanitas at all right now.]

It's gotten pretty cold and it's kinda a good idea to have clothes to keep the chill away.

[darkcharge]

Usually... So this isn't a usual circumstance?

[ It isn't like he is going to throw it away. Vanitas is gong to use it because it would be a waste to do otherwise. And he doesn't like to waste things. Look, he hasn't even destroyed the wrapping paper. It's still fairly neat and intact. ]

Seems like quite a few of you people seem to be concerned about my ability to stay warm.

[callmeven]

Would you accept a gift from me if I said it was because I thought you'd like it?

[ventus has no idea what vanitas will do which is why he prepared for... hopefully anything. maybe he should have prepared more for vanitas actually accepting it completely.]

Well with all this fur I've been pretty warm, but it's been snowing a lot here... and the last time I saw you, you weren't wearing real winter clothes at all. It's a fair assumption to make.

[darkcharge]

Well I haven't thrown away anything yet.

[ So while he doesn't know if he would have accepted it just for that reason... At least Vanitas isn't one to just toss or burn these things. Granted he meets everything with the same amount of suspicion and cynicism as before, but at least he isn't tossing something out. ]

Those were still clothes, Ventus.

[callmeven]

[ventus doesn't comment on that. yet.]

Yeah, but they aren't winter clothes. If you don't keep warm you could get seriously sick.

[darkcharge]

I've never been sick in my life.

[ Coughing up Unversed doesn't quite count. ]

[callmeven]

That doesn't mean it won't happen here. Everything is different here from back home.

[yes it does]

[darkcharge]

I don't have a home or have you forgotten that little fact Venty?

[callmeven]

[and this is when the fighting starts...]

I meant our world, Vanitas. Don't act coy.

[darkcharge]

Don't technically have one of those ether.

[ Shrugs! ]

[callmeven]

Well... what about the world we came from? Before we-... when we were one person?

[darkcharge]

What good is that if neither one of us really remember it?

[callmeven]

Ah... you don't remember either?

[maybe he should change the subject. ven looks down at what vanitas is working on.]

... What is that?

[darkcharge]

[ Yeah... Vanitas isn't going to even respond to that one. Instead he will answer the other question. ]

What's it look like? It's a spear.

[callmeven]

Why... a spear?

[he's very confused.]

[darkcharge]

It was a gift?

[ Why else? ]

[callmeven]

But you have magic, right? Why did someone give you a spear as a gift?

[darkcharge]

Because she is a warrior maybe? I don't know, Ventus.

[callmeven]

[ven perks up]

She? Who's she?

[darkcharge]

Why do you want to know something as asinine as that?

[callmeven]

Because she sounds like someone who likes you, especially if she gave you a gift like that!

[darkcharge]

Someone that likes me? Sounds fake, Vents.

[callmeven]

[ven laughs a little at that, but not in a malicious way.] Of course she does! You just said she gave it to you as a gift. People don't do that unless they like you.

[darkcharge]

[ Yeah but Ventus... You haven't met this lady. ]

I'm not sure she actually likes anyone.

[callmeven]

Well, it seems like she likes you enough to give you a gift. People certainly don't give stuff to others if they hated them.
