[He did say he'd do this. That he'd explain everything... but that doesn't make things any less awkward. Before Ven says anything, he just sorta stares down at the journal, trying to figure out how to articulate things.

Welp, if all else fails, improvise!]

Hey. I'm sure a lot of you guys know about Vanitas by now, and most of you probably don't like him. He can be pretty harsh sometimes, and I know he's caused trouble before. The thing is...

[Hoo boy.]

Well, we're really close. We have been for a while now, I just didn't know how to say it before. I know this sounds weird, but he's really not a bad guy once you get to know him. Honest!

So maybe you guys could give him a chance?

[ooc: Forgot to add; since the event made him think it's always been that way, he doesn't remember Vantias almost killing Axel. :( Just getting into a fight... for reason.]

[...hell. No. Roxas is going to make a few incoherent noises before he figures out how to word things.]

Are you kidding me? Ven, what are you saying!?

[Why's everyone mad all of the sudden?

Ven doesn't respond right away; he's a little wary now, not to mention confused.]

Roxas, what's wrong? ... Xion acted like Vanitas did something really bad, but I can't remember a thing.

[perplexme]

...you don't remember what he did to us? What he did to my best friend? How could you forget something like that?

[risingwinds.livejournal.com]

I can't help it. I really don't remember anything like that.

[He wants to apologize, but... this whole situation's just plain confusing.]

[perplexme]

You don't remember...Ven, you're the on who offered to help us stop him! What do you mean he's not that bad? Why would you...what happened?

[risingwinds.livejournal.com]

Why would I...?

[Everyone's acting like it's the truth, but he can't help but feel a little doubtful. Who's he supposed to trust right now?]

I'm sorry, Roxas. I don't know what's going on...

[perplexme]

Can I ask why you think he's suddenly okay?

[risingwinds.livejournal.com]

But that's how I've always felt. I just didn't know how to say it, or I would've done something sooner.

[perplexme]

...that's how you've always felt. [There's something odd about that.] Is that how he's always felt? Because that's a pretty funny way to show love.

I'm not sure how I missed this 8|a

[risingwinds.livejournal.com]

... He just doesn't always know how to show it. That's how it's always been.

...it hid :|a

People who love you don't go around trying to kill your friends. We're your friends, right, Ven?
