Sixteenth Shooting Star - voice;

Backdated to late night on the 12th [Filtered from Vanitas//50% Unhackable]

[He doesn't know what to think right now. This is the third time recently that a friend's fallen victim to Vanitas. Thus, those listening to the journals will note that Ven sounds far angrier than usual. Angry and dead serious.]

I don't know how many of you guys heard Kairi's message, but something's happened to Xion. She's in really bad shape, all thanks to Vanitas.

And she's not the only one. A while back, Axel almost died because of him. Then Sora lost one of his wings, and Naoto got really hurt and lost her gun. He might not remember the χ-blade, but Vanitas is just as dangerous as he's always been.

And it's about time we did something about it.

Vanitas is really powerful, so whatever you do, don't go alone. That's what he'd want you to do. What we oughta do is get a group together. If you're friends with Xion, Naoto, Sora, or you just wanna help, just let me know. Maybe if we team up, we can settle this. [For now.]

And if the rest of you guys see somebody wearing a black and red suit, stay away from him. I don't want anyone else to get hurt, especially my friends.

July 13th, after the battle;

[Sometime after the fight, Ven addresses the journal again, sounding awfully uneasy. This whole situation was exhausting, and for once that bright spirit of his has been dampened a little.]

How're you supposed to stop somebody if they'll keep coming back? Somebody dangerous, who's not even scared of death.

[The actual fight log won't be going up until Saturday, but it'll be backdated to the 13th. Here is the plotting post for more information.]

I know, but I still wanna help. Vanitas is my darkness; I can't just ignore him.

[He's just conflicted. Even during the drafts, he didn't...]

[erodingearth]

[Yeah. He was there, too. Knocking a person out was completely different.]

Try not to think about it now, okay? [It's weak advice. They both knew that Vanitas would be the only thing they'd be thinking about for awhile.]

[risingwinds.livejournal.com]

Yeah. We'll just have to do our best.

[But Terra's right. They shouldn't worry so much-- he shouldn't worry so much. Guh.]

[erodingearth]

[That hand on Ven's shoulder lifts up, only to rest on his head and ruffle his hair faintly.]

Come on. A glass of milk, then it's time for bed.

[risingwinds.livejournal.com]

[Aww. But Terraaaa---

He nods, turning back towards the house.]

Right. I'm gonna need some rest if we're going after him.

[erodingearth]

Yeah. We both will.

[He drops his hand to his side and follows Ven back inside.]

[risingwinds.livejournal.com]

[And once Ven's inside, he'll slowly head over to the kitchen, all while trying to hold back a yawn.]

[erodingearth]

It's finally catching up to you how late it is, huh? [He manages a slight smile, seeing how hard Ven's trying not to look sleepy.]

[risingwinds.livejournal.com]

A little.

[Understatement, but he must not look too sleepy!]

[erodingearth]

I'd say you could skip the milk and go straight to bed, but... [Well, Ven needed all the help he could get.]

[risingwinds.livejournal.com]

Terra!

[He can at least have a drink. D:]

[erodingearth]

[It's okay, short-stuff. Terra's done with the teasing for now. He'll at least help out and get his friend a glass.]
