[In the early hours of the morning, what people will see over their SFCs is a very large room that takes on the appearance of an art studio. Despite the many artistic supplies spread in various locations, the room does house a single man in it. This man is sitting in front of a canvas that doesn't have much on it, yet he's staring very intently at the canvas before setting the brush down. What can be seen is a painting of three hearts; one white, one black, and one gray. After a few moments of staring at his creation, he picks up the SFC which was already switched on prior to him painting this odd picture, the expression on his face rather neutral. Not happy or sad, simply neutral.]

Do call me curious dear Vatheon, but this is something I have been pondering for some time now. Why should we celebrate holidays we don't celebrate back home? Certainly some have been for the amusement of it, but take for instance this one we currently celebrated. For those who don't believe in love, a holiday entirely dedicated to it is seen as ridiculous. But that can be said of all people who don't believe in certain holidays, doesn't it?

Though this holiday especially can also arouse questions within us, particularly to matters of the heart as that seems to be its theme. A few I can think of are: Is there such a thing as true happiness or love? Is the feeling truly there or not? Can the supposed happiness and love gained with another who said they felt the same remain always? Or will it fade away like sand being washed away by the ocean?

Maay~bee...

*But she's been around the world, and she's met men who are cynical about love*

Just figured that you're thinking about this pretty soon after Valentine's day, so wondered if maybe you'd just had a bad date, or maybe no date at all..

[video]

[beauchevalier]

[Well she's partly right about having a bad date.]

It's actually been on my mind for a long while, I thought it appropriate to bring it up close to Valentine's.

(video]

[booyaka_boom]

*Selphie just watches him for a moment before tilting her head and deciding to ask her own questions*

Does it bother you, if other people think they're in love and they're happy that way?

[video]

[beauchevalier]

[He thought this girl was cute at first, but now she's kind of a pain.]

Bother me? No, I find it more laughable than a bother.

[video]

[booyaka_boom]

*Aww, Angelo, you meanie. Selphie's not really sure what to say to that, so she glances away from the SFC. Not existent was one thing, but laughable was another*

Oh...

Well, I guess that's everyone happy, then!

*If she'd ever been loved, she might want to argue a point, but her experience here isn't enough for that*

[video]

[beauchevalier]

[Since she seemed to ask him, Angelo figures he'll ask right back.]

Have you ever been in love, darling?

[video]

[booyaka_boom]

Me? Oh, no..

*She looks embarrassed at this, shaking her head slightly. She might have been close once or twice, but real love? She isn't sure what that is, and now she's beginning to wonder if it even exists*

[video]

[beauchevalier]

That's quite sad to hear, such a lovely lady as yourself not finding love. Perhaps I can be of some help.

[He wants to have some fun tonight in other words.]

[video]

[booyaka_boom]

Nah... I'm not the kind of girl that guys fall in love with...

*She doesn't get it now, she might be a little slow*

But I thought you didn't believe in love? So why would you wanna help?

[video]

[beauchevalier]

Well I may not believe in emotional love, I do believe in physical pleasure.

Re: [video]

[booyaka_boom]

Really? But... but we've never even met!

[video]

[beauchevalier]

There's always a first for everything, baby.

[video]

[booyaka_boom]

*Selphie's just blinking and blushing, not exactly sure which first he's talking about here*

Uhm..that's very nice of you to uh..offer. But..I'd kind of need to get to know you a little better..

..uhm..

*Yeah, she's never been propositioned like this before*

[video]

[beauchevalier]

[Well this is probably the first time she will be.]

Ah of course, I could treat you to dinner at my private suite in the casino.

: [video]

[booyaka_boom]

*Oh, well, dinner was different. She still looks pretty red all the same*

Dinner is...well, y'know, that's more of a friendly thing to do so that's a better idea...

[video]

[beauchevalier]

[He ponders for a moment and thinks up an idea.]

Do you visit the Golden Victory Host Club? You could come by there and we can meet after I'm done with clients.

(video)

[booyaka_boom]

*The host club. Why doesn't that surprise her in any way? She tilts her head slightly*

Well..maybe I'll just see you next time I'm there..

(video)

[beauchevalier]

Feel free to stop by anytime, darling. I'm more than happy to take clients.

(video)

[booyaka_boom]

Sure! Sometime soon! Definitely!

*She smiles, because really, it figures that this guy and Zelos would be friends*

(video)

[beauchevalier]

Ah, I didn't get your name did I? The name's Angelo.

[Oh Selphie, if only you knew. He and Zelos are far from friends.]

[ooc: Ack I am so sorry about that, orz. ;;]

(video)

[booyaka_boom]

Nice to meet you, Angelo! My name's Selphie!

*That sounds like an interesting story - and one Selphie would enjoy hearing, no doubt*

(ooc: hahaha! That's okies! ^^)

(video)

[beauchevalier]

Selphie? That's a rather cute name for a very cute lady.

[I'm sure she would and Angelo will probably tell her one day.]

[ooc: I deleted my comment by accident just as you replied. orz orz. But thank you for understanding.]

(video)

[booyaka_boom]

*Oh, well. That was different from being told that her name was weird, at least, and it makes her smile*

Thanks, Angelo. I like that name. My uh... my friend has a...uhm... a dog called Angelo.

*She's just chatting, not calling him a dog, honest. But she's aware it sounds weird*

(ooc: yeah, and then I edited one, then deleted it one and it was all urgh! No worries here ^^)

(video)

[beauchevalier]

A dog? Did you just say a dog?

[He shares the same name as someone's dog? You've got to be kidding. His expression alone shows how horrified he is.]

(video)

[booyaka_boom]

*Oh crap. She knew she shouldn't have said that. She's looking pretty embarrassed about it now, waving her hands*

Uh! But Angelo is really handsome, and he's a super clever dog too. He fights. He does tricks, and stuff...
