Due to new roommate moving in next weekend and just life draining every single thought it’s been hard to write. I absolutely want to reply and no one has done anything wrong but it’s just hard….. from feeling worthless for not being able to write and reply to just noticing a friend with people around me it’s been hard. That said I think I will be going on a temp hiatus till maybe middle of June? If you want to chat you are welcome to come approach or if you are open to me sending memes and unprompted things just let me know. I just want everyone to know you are precious and I adore you for everything you are. I’m sorry im being a downer….

⌜☬⌟ ➡ It had been a minute since Vanitas had given Lex a blatant dead pan stare but here he was. Giving that look as the other spoke of things that would normally make him laugh in its misguided belief. "Me? A nice person? Kid you took to many hits in the head from that last sparring session." he stated but lips pulled into casual smile and gaze softened. Maybe the other had finally worn out Darkling. Though when mentioned the offering of help Vanitas wanted to deny but that wouldn't be right of him to do. "Yeah I know how that is." It was a whispered sentiment, after all Vanitas was one of the few remaining people who could relate. After all no one wanted to be around a being made of pure Darkness.

             When offered the orange Vanitas didn't decline, reaching out to grab it and peel it staring at the waves lapping at the shore. "So? That mean's you still have some Light in you. Could be worse." he always made light of his situation but that had come after taking Alexios under his wing. "Thank you Lex." Vanitas spoke lifting the slice of orange he peeled and popped it into his mouth allowing the sweet juices to coat taste buds. "What are we doing after this?"

// @kukyc

"Don't be silly, Vani! You're a wonderful person, I'm sure of it." though, it wouldn't be the first time that he has said such, and been proven wrong. "Bad people don't offer to help me out. But, like... most people stay away from me anyways, since I'm, uh." a worried pause.

"Since I'm half Nobody? Eheh." he holds out an orange to vanitas, "Want one? I brought an extra for you!"

⌜☬⌟ ➡ For someone in this line of business you got use to the odd meeting places for when taking on a request. So when the note was slipped to him about meeting a new client in The Veil, Vanitas couldn't help the eyebrow raise and the bemused chuckle. Most of the time he would have picked a pub or rented a home from a struggling couple for said conversations but this request was already unique. In the first place the person requesting his presence was outside his normal clientele, though not uncommon for one such as he.

             Entering the establishment he noted a few to many familiar faces drunk from cheap liquor and lust. Some had been clients, others potential targets. How small the world truly is for one stuck in the darkness of the world. Following the woman who lead the way Assassin noticed the flirty look she had been giving him but he only gave a curt smile. It was time for work, not play - there would be time for that later.

             Taking his seat Vanitas noticed the room and took stock of the placement of people and how well the room was covered. Golden gaze flicked from tense woman to calm male before relaxing into the chair, a false sense of security. The moans never phasing the killer as he waited for the client to speak. They had called for him so Vanitas wasn't going to speak first, not when he was unclear of their goals.

             "No problem." he shrugged off the apology before shifting in his seat to cross legs, the panel of his coat falling to show some of the shiny silver of weapons. "I understand the need for… secrecy." he smiled it was a smile that was borderline sweet and mocking.

             "I don't see why a person of your peerage would seek out someone like me. You don't strike me as the type to want to hire a hit of your fellow nobleman." He comment casually like he was asking for the weather. "So unless you are just a go between I don't see a point for you hiring me." His tone cold and calculated, after all nobles could afford to hire the Assassin that was Vanitas.

⌜☬⌟ ➡ It didn't matter whether if it was off stage or on stage there was always room to improve ones skill. Vanitas had always been told that by the very man who had helped train him and now worked with, Leon Oswald. He had been working hard to earn the approval of the one they call the 'Shinigami' so this little trick wasn't enough.

             It didn't matter what troupe his mentor joined Vanitas had been one to always follow, after all he would be the one to steal the spot light from Leon. That was his biggest desire, to prove to Leon that he was talented and able to preform amazing stages. So when the other came to Kaleido Stage Vanitas naturally followed. To say it was jarring being here with people who were brighter and happy with just about anything. Mostly that girl named Sora, she was a bit of a wild card he wasn't expecting.

             Still his time here had taught him that it was okay to make a mistake so long as he took it as a chance to grow. This really hit home when started doing performances with Riku, a man he had considered his rival and deep down - a friend. That is what led him to his current point of hanging from the trapeze bar in thought. He wasn't satisfied with the current maneuver he was working on for the new production so he was trying out a few different things. But nothing worked the way he wanted and each time he tried nothing worked out the way he wanted. He had been pondering so much that he was unaware of the bar coming to a halt nor the door being opened.

             Feeling the sudden cold press to his cheek he jolted slightly but never enough to lose his balance. If anything his knee's tightened around the bar to keep himself from falling. Golden gaze narrowed in annoyance till they fall on the silver haired youth and he sighs heavily. When offered the drink he takes it with a snatch as he released some of the tension in his legs to allow himself to flip over the bar.

             Landing on his feet with ease he opened the drink to down the cool contents. Humming lightly in thought he shrugged to Riku's question. "I can't seem to get those move to work the way I want." He honestly answered before giving the other a look. "So what brings you here? I thought you would have been off practicing somewhere else by now."

[kukyc]

⌜☬⌟ ➡ "Why does that make me question your skills even more." He chuckled lightly allowing Sora to guide him, not a single care on where or even how they got there. The cool air of the night felt amazing against skin, maybe this was the reason he loved nights. The cool and calm matching the wish to ease his mind of thoughts and memories.

             When they approached the sleek and rather sporty looking vehicle Vanitas let out a low whistle in appreciation of it. "Nice." musing came as he was shoved towards the passenger side and despite his long frame he was easily sat in the seat. When Sora joined him in the drivers seat and the car roared to life he was impressed honestly. He did as instructed and buckled up before giving Sora a look. "Hold on huh?"

             When the car took off there were moments where he was nervous about possibly hitting someone but they passed. Soon enough the road opened up and people fell away leaving just the two on the roads. The way wind whipped into the car made him think of the times he road his keyblade in battle. The rush was nothing he would ever forget and this made him crave that that feeling again. Maybe he would have to invest in maybe a bike or convertible car.

             When they pulled up to the small cozy looking cabin Vanitas offered a smile, not a full one but one of understanding. "A lot of what I did was for my own thrill. I had learned that the things I like and sometimes that meant doing my own thing. Much like how I learned that not only fighting could give me that rush. After riding with you in this car it reminded me of how I use to fly on my Void Gear. Now that was a thrill!" he laughed climbing out of the car to stretch and look back to his companion.

             "People change and grow, just like how you are no longer the simple minded hero. Neither am I the perfect little pawn to be used. We have come far and that's okay."

⌜☬⌟ ➡ Groan parted lips as he stared down to the woman blocking his path. Sure he could easily get around her and continue on his way without a care in the world but that would probably lead to more nagging. He was already not liking that idea so he let out a breath, "It's just a scratch anyway, not like it won't heal on its own." he stated glad for once his suit was darker in color to hide the free flowing crimson from the wound. "Fine, but after that no more." he stated giving her a piercing look with amber gaze.

ㅤㅤㅤ" ah-ah. you're not slipping away that easily. " bodyblocking someone who can dissolve into darkness is likely ineffective. still, she spreads her arms wide and stares him down. not quite stern, not a tone of worry, but rather—dutiful. as if kairi owes him this. a sigh, one of mild exasperation. " at least let me heal you up before you go. "ㅤ\ ♡ @kukyc.

⌜☬⌟ ➡ He had come so far, had made so much progress on his own that Darkling felt like he could handle returning to the Graveyard. It had been a while since he had come back to this place, not since that final battle. It had not changed one bit but one thing was certain Vanitas had grown. He was no longer the boy who mindlessly listened to the man who had raised him. Oh no, now he would be able to handle himself.

Yet some things would never change, much like the reaction body had to the sudden voice behind him that froze blood in veins. Eyes widened in shock, was there a tint of fear in those golden depths? "How are you alive." he whispered not sure if he should try and strike first or escape. While he didn't want to look weak this was so sudden Vanitas wasn't even sure if he was prepared. No, he was prepared but those days of suffering at this man's hands had made it hard to want to act again.

"Leave this place, Old Man." He hissed as amber jewels narrowed and hardened. Vanitas was not going to run, not this time when he had finally become his own person. So when the older male responded sarcastically Vanitas barked a harsh laugh. "You just don't listen, do you?" he sneered before suddenly noticing the way hand twitched and tried to jump back. He wasn't fast enough and the blade of weapon struck against hip as Vanitas moved. Swearing under breath he looked back to his former master and glared.

The way the man was so calm and cold had sent a shiver down spine from habit. "Ha, real funny coming from you." There went that mouth of his again, but the ever confident smirk in lips masked to emotion he felt. So when he was kicked in the ribs after falling to his knee he flew back a good bit.

"Oh good, and here I was wondering if you had gone soft as well as weak."? He wiped the spit that was on his lips standing to his full height. He now was looking directly into the older mans eyes, that ever cocky grin on lips. "Oh yeah? Then what are you going to do about you old fucker." he spat hand raising to show middle finger to his former master.

[kukyc]

⌜☬⌟ ➡ There was something odd about having someone look so much like Ventus come to him so willingly. Amber gaze trained on the other who seemed to be nervous, granted that wasn’t wasn’t the vibe he was getting. No, if anything this person was cautious and wary would be a better word than timid and afraid. Vanitas couldn’t help but respect this about the blonde, so from his spot on the rock head cocked to the side.

Listening to his request Vanitas let out a short laugh as he pushed up from his spot and stood tall. It was an odd thought but he had not seen Roxas since becoming his own person and his own changes taking root. Easiest changes being the elongate canines, ears and his height but if one looked close they could see other changes. "Like I've told all the others, I haven't seen him." He sounded exasperated but he looked down to the other. "Wouldn't you be able to feel him more than me?" This question wasn't as harsh sounding, more curious in nature.

[kukyc]

⌜☬⌟ ➡ "Mhmmm sure." came automatic comment as quick and as much second nature as one could get. There was always something about Ventus that drew on his more sardonic side. Maybe it was all the time he had chased and fought against Ventus and his friends? What could he say? Some habits die hard.

Still it was pure chance that the two sides of each other had come to this world. For one Vanitas had noticed one of his Unversed not responding to the command of its master and that annoyed him. So as if to add insult to injury here was the very last person he wanted to run into. Not for any fault of Ventus's but they just had to much bad blood between them for the Darkling to want to be around him.

It was a wound that would never truly close, not when the memories of their connection still strong in mind. So when the blonde spoke about the old obsession he use to hide Vanitas groaned, loudly. "No." it was a hard sound as he pinched the bridge of his nose. "One of my…. creations has gone rogue and I am here to collect it before it creates an even bigger headache." Lately Vanitas had been spending a lot of time off by himself and found that he liked the silence.

The silence and peace didn't hurt him like people could.

[kukyc]

⌜☬⌟ ➡ The Unversed remained steady as its Master left, knowing it was only meant to by time before it would be called back to their side. Head tilting to the side at the odd emotion that crossed the youngers face, it was weird and the Unversed wasn’t to sure it liked it. The fight that ensued left the Unversed pretty beaten but it held up pretty well, that was till he felt the pull of a summons again. Allowing the pull the Unversed disappeared into a pile of Darkness and shadows.

Vanitas had made it to the watch tower and had begun looking around for anything that seemed to call to him. With how small this world was that shouldn’t have been to hard and yet after nothing he wasn't sure what to think. Maybe the source had changed worlds or maybe he got the location wrong? Maybe he just needed a moment to think of a plan, since he had been going for a while without much of a break.

Moving to the First District again the Darkling leaned against the wall of the accessory shop. He had been running through his mental check list when the voice called out again. "What am I…. a sunshine magnet?" he spat under breath.

[kukyc]

Some may have noticed already but I have turned off my ask box. Why you may ask? Because I’m not able to dedicate my time and get the muse to work to answer them and drafts. And my drafts have been sitting for a while to the point I’m worried my partners think I’m ignoring them. So till all drafts are caught up I won’t be taking anymore asks. I will send stuff but I just can’t take on anymore… I’m so sorry…

[kukyc]

⌜☬⌟ ➡ "Ah so that's the catch, only I can stare at you?" He would be saving this info for a later date because now he has idea's. "So a good time." he shot back waggling eyebrows at Riku.
