☽ I: video

[The video flicks on to reveal a figure silhouettes against the red moon glowing full overhead behind them. It looks like Vanitas has somehow gotten onto the roof of somewhere and is perched very precariously on the edge, his hair ruffled. For as dim as his face is in the darkness it's clear that he's grinning widely, his teeth looking almost suspiciously sharp and his blue eyes glowing with what seems to be red.]

Hello, fellow Moonblessed! To those of you who I haven't met yet, my name is Vanitas.

[Briefly the video becomes a blur as he spins to face the moon, gesturing to it broadly as the red glow washes over him.] Where I come from this sort of red moon usually heralds the birth of beings known as vampires. But it's a shame that such doesn't seem to be the case here, you know?

[He laughs, the sound just a bit manic.] You might be wondering why... It's simple- I'm a doctor to vampires, and without any patients it's just impossible for me to do my job! And I'm a very busy man, you know... So I'd like to make an offer to all of you!

If there are any vampires here, I want you to let me test something on you! If you're inhuman but not a vampire I suppose I could still try it on you, really... So what do all of you say?

Nah. If you really wanted it, you could have it. I'm not particularly attached to it.

[ He holds out his hand, calling Void Gear to him. ]

I want to fight just to fight.
ciao: ('Cause on the outside I'm smiling)

[personal profile] ciao 2019-04-07 12:15 am (UTC)(link)
Ah yes, I'm sorry, sorry~

[ there was the wagging of the tail in the background, now more enthusiastic than it was before and probably a lot more noticeable ]

It seems like you have a few little changes too though, were you affected as well? I think... is it just the teeth and nails? And I'm pretty sure your eyes were blue before, they were a very pretty shade--not that the red isn't nice too.

That's my line!

[ He's starting right off the bat with a Dark Thundaga. Whether or not it hits its intended target doesn't matter. Mostly the magic is meant to serve as a means of distraction so that Vanitas can charge it with a swing of his keyblade. ]
ciao: (But on the inside I'm screaming)

[personal profile] ciao 2019-04-07 12:41 am (UTC)(link)
Oh no? Maybe I just didn't notice them before...

[ he was thoughtful, as if recollecting from the last encounter before he stopped and smiled. ]

Really? Like moon-phases and werewolf mythologies? That would be interesting I guess, but it's still interesting how it's just randomly and not everyone.
ciao: (Over and again last call for sin)

[ italy's tail slowed to a stop and he seemed deep in thought, trying to mentally go back to a lot of the mythology he had so dearly loved over the years ]

I mean... there are different phases of the moon, just like there are three goddesses of the moon even though a lot of modern day mythology only regards one...

[ there was a shake of the head and a sigh ]

It's been too long since I've read those stories though, I do remember there were some cults in Crete totally devoted to this sort of practice. Maybe if you find a library it'd be easier to look it up.
ciao: (taking a chance on me)

[personal profile] ciao 2019-04-07 03:42 am (UTC)(link)
I'm surprised that nobody else has really openly talked about looking into this, there more than likely should be something though. History is kind of important no matter where you're at, right?

[ he was so proud of himself, smiling back at vanitas ]

Is there anything else you're trying to figure out?

[ That gets another laugh. ]

Cry? Me? Not a chance!

[ Because sure, maybe the other Vanitas can block his blow. Sometimes that first hit or even the full combination of blows don't need to connect. It's what comes next, the magic finisher, that usually throws people off. Right at the end of Vanitas' strike, he's casting a Blizzaga.

Unlike some of the other keyblade wielders here, this is where his strength lies: the ability to weave physical and magical attacks together. ]
ciao: (no no no no help me out)

[personal profile] ciao 2019-04-07 04:45 am (UTC)(link)
Huh... I guess for that kind of question, you have to look for someone in charge don't you? But yeah, this seems a lot more pressing than trying to figure out how we got here...

[ there was a pause, italy looking like he's considering something before leaning into the screen a little ]

... There's something I meant to ask you about earlier, but it seemed like it might've been alarming... but what era are you from?
ciao: (Terrified)

[personal profile] ciao 2019-04-07 07:37 pm (UTC)(link)
[ there was some slight nodding, following along. he had some clue about vanitas' distrust, so it wasn't something he was totally thrown off about. but at the mention of catastrophe he stopped and looked thoughtful for a moment ]

... Well, it's not too important overall--the details that is. I mean, it just felt like you came from a different era so I didn't want to throw you off too much with modern concepts.

[ at the end he was just trying to be thoughtful really, though now it just may have gotten more confusing ]

If you ever need assistance with something, just let me know! I've learned a lot over the years and like to offer anything I can~

[ Pushing his opponent back is a good start. Vanitas could rush right back in, but he doesn't. Instead he takes his ready position once more. ]

I'd need a mother first.

[ Oh he won't be goaded with words like that. However Vanitas is drawing closer. It's just he approaches the other with carefully timed steps. ]

Are you going to come at me or are you too scared?

I don't know. You could know like two vampires and just give them the best care ever?
ciao: (Good and bad)

[personal profile] ciao 2019-04-09 05:35 am (UTC)(link)
Okay~ I was just offering, I'm sure you're plenty capable!

[ that pout, so cute... ]

Anyway, I'll learn what I can and maybe some time we could compare notes~
ciao: (Now there's a space too wide)

[personal profile] ciao 2019-04-09 07:00 pm (UTC)(link)
Great! I love learning about new things, so I’ll be vigilant while also being careful not to mishandle books or anything~

[ suddenly a perk of the ears before he continues]

Do you prefer sweet or savory foods?
