It's like a Vanitas flood, what is this---

[darkenedgale.livejournal.com]

[ Soooooo... stumbling out of a door is what appears to be a Vanitas. Oddly, he's clutching his head as if he's in a state of immense pain.

Those able to sense light and darkness in hearts will notice that, despite his dark armor, his heart is... surprisingly full of light. Could that be why he seems so dazed? Whatever the case, he's worse for wear. Between groans, he manages to mutter-- ]

Was that... Kingdom Hearts?

[ ooc: Stuff went down in the ball post. :| So, for a few days, Creepertas has been 'cleansed' and will be significantly less of a bastard. Just don't expect sunshine and rainbows out of this one.

EDIT: Nevermind. There is Spoilerfaise here. ]

[Having witnessed that entire fight, she can't help an inkling of guilt at seeing how much pain he was in and.. seems to still be in pain. Of course, he has always been terrible to her, but she's realizing how much less darkness he has..]

[darkenedgale.livejournal.com]

Princess.

[ He noticed her fairly quickly. Light or no light, he's no less attentive than usual. ]

[star-shells.livejournal.com]

[.. He may be the worst of the Vanitae that she's met, but she still hates seeing people in pain. Reaches to gingerly touch his shoulder, unable to help looking guilty.] You're.. in a lot of pain.

[darkenedgale.livejournal.com]

[ He tenses up just a little. The guy still remembers how he should be, and he even opens his mouth to give some witty retort--

But nothing comes of it, and he relaxes a bit. ]

It's the light. It shouldn't be there, Princess, but now it's taken hold of my heart.

Can has spoilerface?

[Hmm? Well well well...Interesting.]

Hmmm, sure. I'll go add a warning

[darkenedgale.livejournal.com]

[ He turns towards his double, albeit slowly. This light hurts, and his hand remains on his helmet. ]

Well then...

[star-shells.livejournal.com]

[Yeah, that guilt actually looked a little worse, even if the light is probably one of the best things that ever happened to him. Rests her hand carefully, cautiously on his shoulder.] .. [She looked a little torn between wanting to apologize for him being in pain, even if he deserved it, and wanting to ask if there was anything she could do when she plain knows there isn't.]

Thanks. ^^

[Wait for it.......

LAUGHING AT YOUR MISFORTUNE!

Hey, he's a jerk now what did you expect?]

[darkenedgale.livejournal.com]

You shouldn't worry.

[ He said that with much less malice in his voice. Was that a shadow of concern? Hmmm. ]

I brought it upon myself.

[darkenedgale.livejournal.com]

Enjoying yourself? I'm really not surprised.

[ He sighs, leaning against the wall. Figures, really. ]

[newborndarkness.livejournal.com]

It serves you right.

[He's actually tempted to finish him off right now. But Kairi did ask him not to hurt people...

Hmmmm.....]

[star-shells.livejournal.com]

[If she didn't know better, she would have thought his words were sweet. She has a very strong gut feeling that it's the light making him speak this way.. Kairi still reached with both arms then, very cautiously (he should be proud of that at least, she will always have a nervous feeling around him) curving her arms around his shoulders in a half hug.] I remember saying before that I hate seeing people in pain.

[vanitits.livejournal.com]

[She's stumbling out behind him, hand curled over her chest. She's...still in that dress and mask, too, though it's a bit rumpled now.]

[darkenedgale.livejournal.com]

[ What is she even--

He's tensing up again here, unsure of how to react. This... isn't exactly what he'd expected from the Princess. ]

If I said it once, I'll say it again... you're too trusting. Why do you even care, Princess?

[darkenedgale.livejournal.com]

As if I didn't notice.

[ Seems he still has some bite to him, albeit not as much. ]

It's-- or it was in my nature. Were it not for this light, it still would be.

[darkenedgale.livejournal.com]

[ Hmmm... He glances over at her.

Nope, can't bring himself to laugh. After all, he's in a similar state. A voice in the back of his head is probably screaming at him for this, but, albeit reluctantly, he says-- ]

Are you alright?

[star-shells.livejournal.com]

[Her arms squeezed very gently, her chin resting on his shoulder.] I'm not.. trusting you. I know you won't be like this for very long. [Now it was more of a real hug, closing her eyes. She's tense, but she wasn't letting go yet.] I care because.. [Seeing you in pain is like seeing him in pain too.] I have a heart that can't deal with others suffering.

[darkenedgale.livejournal.com]

I see...

[ Sigh. She just loves making things difficult, doesn't she?

Well, fine. He'll just roll with it. Blame the fact that his heart's primarily light right now. ]

[newborndarkness.livejournal.com]

[Hmmm....He'll leave it for now.

But he can still enjoy this while it lasts.]

I should find a video camera and follow you around with it while you're like this.

[Then send copies of the tape to EVERYONE.]

[darkenedgale.livejournal.com]

I doubt it'd be interesting. If you expect me to act like Ventus, I'm afraid you'll be disappointed.

[ Tsk. ]

I still have at least some dignity left.

[star-shells.livejournal.com]

[With him hugging back, he would be able to tell she was shaking just slightly. She's more upset about him being in this much pain than she's letting on, mostly due to common sense, but her heart still tugs for hurt people.]

[vanitits.livejournal.com]

... I've been better.

What about you?

[...stupid light. B|]

[darkenedgale.livejournal.com]

[ He's going to keep this incredibly brief. Best not to give her any ideas, after all.

But... with another sigh, he dismisses the visor of his helmet once he steps back. How odd that the yellow in his eyes is completely gone. ]

[darkenedgale.livejournal.com]

Horrible. To think we'd have to suffer through this...

[ He groans. ]

It's humiliating.

[newborndarkness.livejournal.com]

Too bad. That would have been amusing.
