[ Unaffected? Check. Bored? Check.

It's been a rather dull few weeks. With no sign of his Master and no sign of Ventus, he's resorted to sneaking around and occasionally spying on the residents. It's strange, to him, how so many look remarkably like Ventus, yet are completely different in all other aspects. Rikus have also proven fascinating to him, mostly due to their darkness.

Speaking of darkness, Vanitas has decided to do a little test. In short, he's let a few stray Unversed into the hall from who-knows-where, all while keeping completely out of sight.

Beware. They're kind of large and surrounded by smaller Unversed as well. Consider them... bait. ]

[ ooc; I have a small request: I'd like the brainbreak for Vanitas to be kept to a minimum if at all possible. Event folks are more than welcome, of course, as are anyone-- I just don't want him to be too mortified. There won't be spoilers right now, so long as you don't look at his userpic page, which contains icons of his face. I will not be using them here, so no worries.

ETA; There are spoilers in the thread with tiny!Xehanort. ]

Then figure it out on your own. [He's bored and fairly out of practice; the spar will be something to do for a change. Swiping one of his keyblades out, he parried that magic attack and knocked it to the wall, darting forward himself with his other keyblade reading to take a swing.]

[ But before he can hit, Vanitas warps out of the way and drives his Keyblade down. ]

[Throwing a swing upward to knock that keyblade aside, he stabbed forward.]

[ CLANG. He's pretty good. When Vanitas lands, he jumps back, proceeding to shoot some fire magic. ]

[Jumping back himself, he took two swipes with both keyblades to knock all that fire away, then dash forward again. Swinging one keyblade, he dragged it briefly against the floor while striking upwards, turning in a half spin to ready his second strike with a horizontal swing.]

[ Aaaand he takes the hit. However, he recovers quickly, delivering a counter blow before jumping back again. ]

[Guh, that was quite the blow and it sent him stumbling back a bit, wincing. Frowning, he took a few steps back to regain his breath since that attack knocked the air out of his lungs and put a little space between them.]

[ Vanitas doesn't even hesitate to attack again. Why should he when his opponent is at such a huge advantage? ]

[Catching a second wind with that brief moment of space, Roxas gave a yell when he swung one keyblade forward to force the others to drop to guard, and swiped his second keyblade up, scraping that helmet nicely.]
