10 ⊙ video | backdated to monday

_{[So everyone likes a little bit of unintentional blackmail, right?

How about a nice shot of Vanitas napping against someone's side where he actually looks completely normal and/or harmless? It sure seemed like a fantastic idea to Kimblee.]}

When he's like this he seems human, doesn't he? He's been like this for a good fifteen minutes and I just don't have the heart to disturb him. _{[Kimblee brings his hand down to start playing with Vanitas' hair for a few seconds, something he had been doing before he started the broadcast, then he starts to move him.

Or at least he tries.

...Vanitas isn't budging, and whenever he tries to move him, he goes with. Then Kimblee attempts to move--Vanitas still doesn't budge.

Thiiiiiiiiis can't be good. LAMUFAO WHY DO YOU DO THIS TO HIM.]}

All right then, apparently I'm not going anywhere for awhile.

_{[He's definitely booking this movie. Selim, you are so going to watch this later.

...Oh time skips. They are amazing.

But Vani don't fall asleep, he's not sure if his arm could handle another numb session.]}

...I liked it.

[Stop petting him then.]

Glad I picked a winner then. [Snagging the remote to plop it on Kimblee's lap. He picks if they watch something else or do something.]

Walking will be a challenge. [It's been... what three hours total or so? His sleep time in addition to the whole movie?]

_{[Oh fine.]}

If we weren't attached at the hip I would offer to carry you.

_{[And he's been sitting there with a sleeping Vanitas, but like hell he's going to zonk out now.]}

[Not sure about the carrying part. Pretty sure that rates worst than sleeping against him.]

I would prefer not. [He's almost tempted to hop up and drag them both off the couch.] I can open portals. [Want to have a nice trip?]

Afraid I would drop you?

_{[He stretches his arms with a grin.]} Oh--? You're not going to try giving me a heart attack this time?

I'll consider it if you let my Unversed carry you.

[If you can through little critters carting you around in public, then he'll let you carry him.]

Wouldn't want you clinging to me when I surprise you. [Bit of a smirk.] Unless you like being up close and personal.

That depends on which ones you'd be throwing at me, Vanitas. I'd be worried about the larger ones falling over and rolling me over.

_{[...But it actually does sound like it could be a little entertaining!]}

As much as I enjoy some physical contact as much as the next person, no.

Ever meet the ones that explode when they are about to die? [That would be interesting to see set on fire. Even if it'll hurt, the damage they cause alone was worth it. And explosions were always fun.]

I actually had the smaller ones in mind. [His little flood babies or the sulking bunnies.]

Thought so. [Should be glad he was being considerate in the first place. He'll help himself to sliding a hand under Kimblee's back though.] Are you good staying here or are we moving?

I don't believe I ha--

_{[The minute he feels Vanitas move his hand behind his back, he stiffens up, even going as far as to arch his back away from the offending limb.]}

I wasn't aware I had much of a choice.

[Not retracting his arm.]

I doubt you want me falling asleep again.

_[Fuuuu--]

So where do you propose we go?

[WANNA GO SWIMMING?]

We can move around the apartment. Have anything to do? [They can play cards. Or he can have his critters pick up a gaming system until they get unstuck.]

_{[HE WILL DRAG YOU DOWN WITH HIM, VANITAS.]}

Not quite. I've been spending the last few days out and about the city--Selim and I found an... I believe it was called an arcade?

_{[GAMBLING PARLOUR FOR CHILDREN.]}

[Aww. Sorry to break hearts but he isn't ready to die for someone.]

The arcade. Really? [Whoops, not warning at all as he creates some floods.] What games are you interested in?

_{[Give him a few more months.]}

Remember, Vanitas; half of this technology hasn't even been invented in my world. _{[Don't mind him as he reaches down to snag one by the scruff to plop it into his lap. Floods like ear scratches, right?]} There's a number of them I've been putting hours into.

_{[Like Tetra. He has the high score on it now!!!]}

[...water u doin?

He's just going to stare at the critter in Kimblee's lap as it's be scratched.

Kimblee. Those things are literally Vanitas' feelings that he is linked to still. What are you doing?

What were words again?]

_{[He is playing with your emotions.

But no really, he actually thinks that they're stupidly adorable. Deal with it, Vanitas; Kimblee does what he wants.

Scritch scritch.]}

[He doesn't want to deal with it though.

They are gross, unnatural things that he hates. That he uses to get stronger or to snag things for him. Just making a face before tugging up both his legs up on to the couch so he can hug them. Good news, Kimblee's back was now free of any offending hands.]

...so you aren't picky about what they find?

_{[Too bad.

Kimblee shakes his head, shifting the attention from the Flood's ears to its chin, and finally where he guesses its ribs are for a nice side scratch.]}

I haven't been picky in a long, long time.

_{[He glances over at Vanitas, still playing with the little critter.]}

...Are you all right, Vanitas?

[Maybe he should just kill it while it's in Kimblee's arms.

The critter was enjoying itself, but at that thought it will look over at it's creator.]

I'm fine. [Just becoming a blob over here and hating his life at the moment. Totally normal over here.

The other critters he made were all now turning their attention to their master, knowing it was either doom for them or he'll send them off. Vanitas will open a small portal on the floor with a wave of his hand. The floor babies will just scuttle on out through it.]

_{[Let's try and get that little leg kicking. INITIATING POWER SCRITCHES.]}

You don't look fine.

_{[Well, this will explain the avoidance later in the week at least.]}

[Yup. Now there is a really good reason for it.

Asshole.]

I said I'm fine. [He would bite him if he could. Can't exactly get away with them being attached.]

_{[The biggest.]}

Suit yourself.

_{[Gosh Vani at least he isn't tormenting the poor thing he is being nice.]}

[The moment Kimblee lets it go, it's life will be ended. And he won't summon anything close to him again.
He's also fighting the urge to curl even tighter in on himself or even seek the warmth next to him.
Hurry up critters.]

_{[Poor thing.

Until those critters return, he'll just keep giving it attention all while giving Vanitas a curious look from time to time. Something wasn't right and it was actually bothering Kimblee--Vanitas was nearly impossible to read when he wanted to be mysterious.]}
