Eighteenth Shooting Star - voice/action;

[risingwinds]

[He's been staring at his journal for a while, just trying to find the right words. It's... difficult, in part because he's so surprised and also due to sadness.

When Ven speaks into the journal, he tries to hide his disappointment; as a result, he sounds pretty strained.]

Hey, guys. Looks like it's December now, which means Christmas is right around the corner. I heard about a party over the journals, but does anyone else have something fun planned? If it's anything like last year, we'll probably get a ton of snow. A big snowball fight could be fun. Just an idea.

[He sighs. This isn't working...]

Terra's gone. After all this time, I didn't think he'd... [A beat.]

Does anyone wanna hang out? Or do something? I think I need a distraction right now.

[There, at least he's being honest. And with that, he'll probably check up on his housemates (especially Vanitas) and then head out into the village for a bit. He might be wandering a little aimlessly. He'll be just about everywhere before he returns back to the house.

Care to cheer him up? Or antagonize him? Anything goes!]

'Course, Ven. Want to meet up somewhere?

Fountain sound good?

[dragoneer]

...Ven? [Even if he didn't know Terra, he was clearly important to his friend. So. He's going to do something about this.]

Hey--want to, uhhh...hang out with Toothless and me for awhile? We could...build a snow dragon, or something?

[risingwinds.livejournal.com]

[Aww, Hiccup. Ven totally appreciates the offer. In fact...]

That does sound pretty fun!

[voice]

[fortuneprince]

[Even though she didn't personally know Terra, she knows what it's like to lose a friend in this place so there's no hesitation with her own response]

I'd be willing to spend some time with you, if you'd like. We can go for a walk... [Yeah she's not good at the whole trying to figure out how to cheer someone up, but it's something, right?]

[voice]

[risingwinds.livejournal.com]

[It's okay. Ven appreciates the sentiment, and even if it's something simple, it still sounds good!]

Sure, Naoto. A walk sounds great.

[refinedmaestro.livejournal.com]

I'd like to spend time with you Ventus, if you do not mind that.

[ voice ]

[risingwinds.livejournal.com]

'Course I don't mind, Frederic. I've got time.

Ven? Are you alright?

[risingwinds.livejournal.com]

[Ven'll try and smile. He might look a wee bit strained still, but he's strong. It'll be okay.]

Yeah, just... sad, I guess. Terra's my best friend, and he was here for a long time.

[video]

[magiconcehad.livejournal.com]

Terra...?

[Oh no... She remembers him... he'd been friendly when she'd come to Ventus's birthday party, and given how that had been so soon after she'd arrived... it'd meant a lot.]

I-I'm sorry... We... we can meet up or something, if you want.

[video]

[risingwinds.livejournal.com]

Sure! Got any place in mind?

[Ven doesn't care if he hasn't known Lindsay as long as his other friends. A friend is a friend, and he's really looking to spend time with as many people as possible.]

[seiriald]

[... She can't stop thinking about how she was in this position herself, not too long ago. Ven had been there for here then, and...]

Ventus...?

[risingwinds.livejournal.com]

Hey, Kaori.

[It's definitely ironic how their positions have definitely swapped. 'Course, Ven isn't really thinking of that right now.]

[vanityunbcoming.livejournal.com]

[risingwinds.livejournal.com]

[Oh, Vanitas. Well, hopefully he won't mind a derp sliiiding into the room.]

Hey...

[Ven's not sure if Vanitas will hear him, but.]

[voice]

[generalflirt]

Heeey Ven, feel like some breaking and entering?

[voice]

[risingwinds.livejournal.com]

Breaking and entering?

[Masaomi, what. Well, at least he's curious about it!]

[fabrecation]

[Ah...]

... Sure, Ven. Where do you want to go?

[risingwinds.livejournal.com]

I'm not too picky! Anything'd be good.

[It's time to go snack-hunting now, with that last experiment over with and things having quieted down in the village. Leon happens to be looking at bags of chips when he sees Ven wandering by, and he waves at him from beyond the window.

...Drat. He realizes just a little late that Ven might not see him.]

[action]

[risingwinds.livejournal.com]

[Oh, but Ven knows a friend when he sees them! And he totally caught a glimpse of Leon for a split second.

So, what does he do? Turn around and wave back, of course!]

[voice]

[flaring]

I think I might know a distraction or two.

[voice]

[risingwinds.livejournal.com]

Really? What've you got in mind, Axel? I'm up for just about anything!

[lostinmyway]

[Grune and Ven aren't exactly familiar with one another, but he sounds so down she can't possibly ignore his post.]

I'll do something with you. What would you like to do?

[risingwinds.livejournal.com]

[That's okay! Ven's always up for some socializing, whether it's with longtime friends or someone new.]

Well, I'm not picky. I thought about just taking a walk, doing something with the snow, or dropping by the library. Just something to keep busy...

[arcanaxxii.livejournal.com]

[risingwinds.livejournal.com]

Huh?

[Oh... hugs! Hugs from Minako, of all people. Well, Ven'll definitely return the gesture. Right now, he really appreciates it.]

...Thanks, Minako.

[meteorical]

[Man that's sad...poor Ven.]

...you know you're always welcome to hang out at our house, right, Ven?

voice

[risingwinds.livejournal.com]

Thanks, Kairi. I might have to take you up on that offer.

[Because hanging out with friends is always a good thing!]

voice

[perplexme]

What do you mean he's gone? [Yeah no, someone's not believing that right off the bat.]

voice

[risingwinds.livejournal.com]

He left, Roxas. All his things are gone except a note.

[Ven wouldn't lie about this.]

[Voice]

[odastillhatesme.livejournal.com]

[Terra left? Hn. Sanji makes a noise of sympathy before speaking up]

... Y'know, I remember you wanting cooking lessons, right?

[Voice]

[risingwinds.livejournal.com]

Yeah, that's right!

[Yay, he remembers.]

You still giving 'em?

[action] /IGNORE THE LATENESS

[personafalsify.livejournal.com]

... Hey. You okay?

[ It's a dumb question but it's a start. ]

[action] Fashionably late~ B]

[risingwinds.livejournal.com]

[Ven forces a smile, but it's pretty clear that something's up.]

Just didn't expect Terra to leave so soon, that's all.
