Second Shooting Star - voice/action;

[risingwinds]

You know, this place isn't so bad. Even if it's a prison, at least it's peaceful, and there's a lot of room to explore. Maybe one of these days I'll go check out the forest or the mountains, but right now I'm fine with sticking around the village. Aqua just got here, anyway, and maybe Terra'll show up soon. If he does, we've already got a house set up. Well, sorta. We just moved in, so there's still a lot we could do.

[Briefly, Ventus pauses. The journals are supposed to be for communication, so there's a lot he could talk about, but where to start?

...Well, there is one thing.]

Anyway, I know that you guys come from all kinds of worlds. So what's your world like?

--

[Later tonight, people passing by might spot Ventus chilling on the roof of House 39. But why is he out so late in the first place?

Given how focused he is on the sky, it should be fairly clear. One of his favorite things to do back home was look at the stars, and given that the threat of Unversed seems next to nonexistent, there's finally a good opportunity to do just that.

Feel free to join him or maybe scold him for not carrying a blanket... or whatever floats your boat! In spite of the chilly weather, he doesn't seem too bothered, at least.]

[Score! But Ven's not done yet. He knows how notorious these guys are at escaping, so he keeps on following, trying to hit it with an aeroga. It's not quite as potent as normal, but at least it's something!]

[Darn it! Ven remains in hot pursuit, trying to hit it with blizagas and firagas, and maybe a couple more strike raids.]

[Ven makes sure to pick up the sweets as he pursues the little bugger! A few more hits, and he should be shifting into a Command Style.]

[And BAM! Firestorm command style, not that he has anything to fight now.

With the Unversed out of the way, Ven turns back towards the direction of the village. It's dark, and he doesn't want to worry Aqua.]

[vanityunbcoming.livejournal.com]

... Going somewhere?

[risingwinds.livejournal.com]

[...

Immediately, Ven tenses up, looking straight up at that tree.]

You!

[vanityunbcoming.livejournal.com]

Surprised to see me?

[risingwinds.livejournal.com]

Or maybe I didn't want to see you.

[He frowns. This isn't good at all.]

[vanityunbcoming.livejournal.com]

But I wanted to see you.

After all, we're just getting started.

[risingwinds.livejournal.com]

Getting started? And what's that supposed to mean?

[vanityunbcoming.livejournal.com]

That you're strong enough now to fulfill your purpose.

[risingwinds.livejournal.com]

My purpose?

[That doesn't sound good...]

[vanityunbcoming.livejournal.com]

Didn't you know? Though I suppose your Master wouldn't have told you.

[risingwinds.livejournal.com]

Why would you know my purpose, anyway?

[Huff. He slips into a defensive position. Sadly, that Firestorm's probably warn off by now.]

I'm gonna become a Keyblade Master someday with my friends.

[vanityunbcoming.livejournal.com]

The same friends who left you behind?

[risingwinds.livejournal.com]

They didn't leave me behind!

[Well... in a way, they did, but...]

I'm sure they had a reason for leaving.

[vanityunbcoming.livejournal.com]

I'm sure they did. Like pursuing their own destinies.

[risingwinds.livejournal.com]

They just wanted me to be safe.

[Stop being so good at this, Vanitas. D:]

[vanityunbcoming.livejournal.com]

By ignoring you. It's hard to worry about something when it's out of the way.

[risingwinds.livejournal.com]

They weren't ignoring me! They wanted me to go back home, but it was for my own safety.

[Huff.]

I wish they wouldn't treat me like a kid, but I know they didn't mean any harm.

[vanityunbcoming.livejournal.com]

... Even Terra?

[risingwinds.livejournal.com]

Terra would never do anything wrong. He's better than that.
