Character Meet and Greet~~ At Night

[smk_mods]

Rules | FAQ | Premise | Applications


I. Main Street Usa!

It's twilight, edging to evening, and yet the streets are still alive with citizens and Apprentices (that means you!) alike. Take the time to admire the lights, pop in and out of the cafes or just relax in the garden.

Weapon shops and magic shops are open late into the evening this time of year, so feel free to enjoy yourself before you equip yourself for the life head.


II. Apprentice Training 101- Evening Class

Same commons behind the fire house, same weapons and wands available for practicing your skills-- though this time under the cozy street lights and the bright blues and tired purples of a fading summer twilight. Strike at the training dummy or try to catch fireflies with whispers, its all up to you.


III. Things that Go Bump

Are bumping. And they mean business. A few level 1 corroded monsters are scurrying around Main Street causing havoc and it's up to you to stop them. The question is, is it early in the evening or do you dare to face the creatures at the night's darkest hour?


IV. It's time to Sparkle!

Everyone has a spark of imagination. That is, in fact, why you're here! It's time to shine with your own scenario! Just try to keep from causing too much trouble.

Well, the kid would keep up or he wouldn't. Maxim was feeling oddly weak, but that just made him angrier. And he had little problem tearing the smaller monsters limb from limb at least. But there were enough of them at least that he didn't get further in than Ven could follow.

[windslept]

[Ven keeps up once he gets closer and the monsters slow Maxim down more at least. He helps as best he can in using the sword. It is no Keyblade, but it is the same basic idea in that you stick them with the pointy end at least. That much seems easy enough. Ven still uses it the same way, holding it backhanded out of habit as he slashes the monsters.

He dodges barely in time, earning a cut at his cheek from one of them before he strikes it in retaliation, clumsily wiping at the blood at his face.]

[haberdashink]

"Hyu leaffs de blood dere. Makes hyu look dashink." He was having a grand old time, kibitzing even as he fought.

[windslept]

Hm? Dashing?

[Ven wasn't even really one to consider his appearance all that much. But he's pretty sure most would not say that the look of having blood on one's face was attractive? Still, it wasn't like it was a priority right now, given they were still fighting. As long as the blood didn't get in his eyes.]

[haberdashink]

"Ho yez, is a beg heet vit da ladiez."

[windslept]

I don't really care about that.

[It was more that it just wasn't the nicest feeling? At least to Ven. It wasn't like he had to deal with blood with taking care of the Unversed back home. Ven just doesn't want it getting in his face in impeding him from helping. He isn't really one that really thought much if at all about romance but that was probably because it was just him, Terra and Aqua at home with Eraqus. Sure, he made friends on his travels, but he still hadn't really thought on relationships like that to care what may or may not be a hit with the ladies, as he put it.]

[haberdashink]

Maxim was still fighting as he chatted, having a grand old time. "Ho, iz a beeg hit vit de men too."

Not quite what he meant, Maxim.

[windslept]

I still don't really care. I haven't really had time to think about relationships.

[Or met anyone. Just...friends. And Ven was fine with that, so far. It didn't have to be anything more. He doesn't necessarily expect anything more here either. Ven was content enough to make friends and is just hoping to find Terra and/or Aqua around somewhere. He's not really thinking about anything more. Or how he might deal with it if it were to happen or if he were to find someone.]

[haberdashink]

"Vy noit? Liffz too short, hyu only getz a few hundred yearz to liv. Hyu need to tink about dese tinks."

[windslept]

A few hundred? I don't think so...but I was just focusing on making friends, besides Terra and Aqua, when I traveled back home.

[And that was his intention here too. Friends. He wasn't going into anything assuming something more. And Ven figures that is probably best? If they get along well as friends and want to try more, then that works better? Right?]

[haberdashink]

He casually tipped a limb off one of their foes. "Terra and Aqua are hyu brodders?"

[windslept]

Not literally, not biologically. But I guess it kind of feels like we're family after living together for so long now. With them and Master Eraqus. They're my best friends!

[So of course he is trying to keep an eye out for them here too. If he was here, they might be. There's a chance, at least. So Ven wants to at least try. Even if he has to fight to do it, in taking care of these monsters in the process.]

[haberdashink]

He nodded. "Dat iz a goot vay uv tinkink aboot it, keed!"

[windslept]

I figure. I mean, I don't remember much from before I came to live with them. And we're all pretty close, so. We're not biologically related, but we're basically like a family.

[Wanting to help. Wanting to protect and look out for each other. Ven recognizes that much with Aqua trying to keep him out of it all with telling him to go home. But he wanted to help too, wanting answers about Vanitas, to make sure Terra was alright. To make friends.....]

What about you? You have family here?

[haberdashink]

"Hy haff brodders, vut dey are not here. Dey iz vit Miz Agatha und vill make vit de proteckink her until hy getz back. Hy iz chust arrivink here a leddle bit ago."

[windslept]

That's good then! That you're not alone if...Hy? is here too.

[He says, still bringing up the rear behind the other to keep an eye out and ensure the monsters were dealt with. He's still unsure quite what to make of this place, especially with these not being Unversed or Heartless, and that he can't use his Keyblade.]

[haberdashink]

"Hy iz not alone iv hy iz here? Iz dat zuppozed to be deep or zumtink?"

[windslept]

There's this star shaped fruit, on this other world. If people share it, they stay together no matter what. We don't have it back home at the Land of Departure but...we improvised. Made our own. Or, Aqua did. I wasn't sure if you meant your friends were here or you wanted them to be. Or you feel like they are anyway.

[Because admittedly sometimes Ven might have a little trouble understanding. But even so. He's trying and doing his best to help and keep up conversation at least.]

[haberdashink]

He's used to people not understanding him. And he'd never admit to anyone he didn't serve that it was intentional. "Ho. No. Dey are beck home. Hy iz de only goot lookink vun here."a

[windslept]

So you say.

[Ven will just roll with it. Honestly, after the high pitched mice and such and everyone else he encountered back home on some of the worlds, this isn't so bad in figuring some semblance of understanding the other.]

I still want to try find the others if I can. If Terra and Aqua are here somewhere too.

[haberdashink]

"Who ken say. If dey are here den hyu vill vindz dem, yez?"

[windslept]

I hope so. Back home we kind of just missed each other a lot, when traveling. But I have to at least check. If they are or were here too.

[If they were around, Ven had to find them. Somewhere here. Or they would find him, either way. He has to believe that. That Aqua's Wayfinders would help guide them together eventually. Wherever that happened, whenever it did with everything back home and all.]

[haberdashink]

"Hyu hez no vay uv communicatink vit dem? Dat iz foolish, yez?"

[windslept]

No. At least, I'm not sure of a way to get in touch with them. Not without leaving a note or something, at least.

[Ideally, yes, they would have figured communication before they left the Land of Departure. But a lot was going on, even then in the moment. So it wasn't something they considered at the time. Unfortunately. And it isn't something he knows about here either? Yet at least.]

[haberdashink]

"Hyu ken tell pepple here vat dey look like und azk dem to keep dem here iv dey arrive."
