Day 169 - [Text | Fail Filter from... Roxas's SFC?]

[As when the coral gave him a heart for a week, on waking in a body that can feel, Roxas panics.

The jolt of emotion spawns several Unversed and, startled, Roxas tries to summon his keyblade to fight them off. The weapon that appears in his hand is familiar, but it doesn't belong to him. The recognition makes him stop, and finally look down at himself.

He's wearing Vanitas's ~~skirt~~ suit. Holding Vanitas's keyblade.

He scrambles for some kind of reflective surface, and finds the helmet closest at hand. Those are Vanitas's yellow eyes staring back at him.

What the hell.]

[Once he's calmed down enough and looked through some of the network posts, Roxas makes one of his own, from Vanitas's SFC.]

With what's going on I wanted to say, be careful of the guy in Roxas' body. I dont know if he'll do anything, but just be on your guard.

[And it seems like the random stray Kimblee seems to have picked up was awake and making quite the commotion.

He had deemed to avoid the child having sense something off with him, and he was sure the other could feel something similar. It wasn't until he saw one of the critters scuttling about in the hall that he knew something was wrong. The messages across the network about different bodies confirmed the issue.

A gaze was shot towards Kimblee's room. He'll wake him up after dealing with the loose pests. His shadow stretched and a mouth appeared.

It shot up from beside the unversed and ate the ones straying in to the hallway.

The shadows retreated back inside. Then "ten-year-old" will step out of the hall and in to the living room to greet the person.]

Good morning, mister. Would you like some breakfast?

[He can feel it when the Unversed are consumed by... something. Another darkness. He grips his chest. This is what it feels like to be Vanitas?

He looks up sharply at the appearance of the boy, expecting him to... look like something very different. Is it this body that's making everything feel wrong or is there something off about this kid, too?

...why would Vanitas be living someplace with a little kid?]

Uhh. I don't- feel so great.

[That sure sounds like someone else's voice coming out of his mouth. Ugh.]

[At least Roxas now knows someone would have Vanitas around?

Wait until he meets the actual "friend" if he was indeed still the same. The child continued to the kitchen.]

I saw on the network that everyone is was woken up by a surprise. I feel a little left out. [He looked down for a moment.] I am guessing you aren't Uncle Kimblee's friend, right?

[...oh good, he doesn't have to try and pretend to be Vanitas. That would be hard considering he has no clue where he is or who you are or who "Uncle Kimblee" is.]

R-right.

[Okay. Something's clearly going on here. Don't panic. Just calm down.]

...so a lot of people are- the wrong people?

[And he gave a nod of his head as he pulled out his communicator.] Uh-huh! I hope my Uncle Kimblee is where he should be. I don't think it'll be wise to stay with a stranger.

[He crossed over to Not!Vanitas and held up his SFC to show him.] See?

[And then his eyes widened.] Oh! I must apologize for not introducing myself. I'm Selim. I believe my uncle calls him Vanitas. [Pointing to the helmet and then he'll point down the hall.]
And my uncle is Kimblee. He's actually a friend of my father's.

[Roxas glances at the SFC and then blinks slowly at this kid's... cheerfulness.

Well, it seems like he doesn't really know Vanitas, so maybe that's why he's not intimidated or anything. Roxas scratches his head. ... Man, what is up with this hairdo you and Sora have anyway, Vani?]

Yeah, I... [Does he want to admit to knowing Vanitas?]

Thanks. This is- pretty disorienting.

[He still feels kind of... sick isn't the right word.]

[Not like he will judge if you did know Vanitas. Kimblee knew him after all!]

I can't really imagine. [Though he did have the ability to body swap if it was absolutely required.]

Do you need air? We're on the fifth floor of the Ikashun apartments in the lower district.

[Rin decides text is just going to be the way to go this week, and be glad that his SFC still registers as his own.]

That freak got your body? Damnit!

[Roxas is honestly just hoping most people don't recognize Vanitas's user because he seems pretty quiet on the network.]

I think so. Maybe it'll make him less of a jerk.

[Dub as Rin could be sometimes, he figured with a message like this, it had to be Roxas.]

Don't hold your breath.

... he visited me in the clinic, after I woke up.

In the clinic? Why?

Fuck if I know. He was actually acting like a halfway decent person. Said something about "not being able to fight me like that" since I was kind of hurking my guts out.

I don't understand that bastard sometimes.

I saw him at the masq too. I dont really get him either. but I think I'm starting to.
