[fulmination]

Another week, another curse and it appears Vatheon continues to keep its poor sense of humor. I don't quite appreciate having my alchemy taken away like this and left with other abilities that I don't know how to control.

Selim, meet me near the forest; there's something I need to discuss with you. Do take care of yourselves this week, Vatheonites, and if anyone has seen Vanitas around I'd appreciate it if you let him know I'm looking for him in case he doesn't pick up his SFC.

_{[And. You know. Messing up the apartment with his new tricks might not be the best idea considering the damage it can do. He knows what can happen first hand all too well.]}

I'll be there soon, uncle. Do you need me to bring anything?

[fulmination]

Just yourself, please.

[So serious.]

Almost there!

[He had gone at a brisk walk. Running would have been concerning after all!

It'll be a few minutes before he arrived! He will give Kimblee a look when he sees him. Someone was certainly feeling brave.]

What's wrong?

[fulmination]

<sub>[Gosh Pride, it's not like he was actually




worried about this curse or anything.

What's that moving shadow on this tree behind him? Is that--Yeah, that's... definitely an eyeball.]</sub>

Take a wild guess.

[fullmetalfanboy]

[...seriously. Wat.

And guess what Kimblee had just put to motion? Pride was stretching out his darkness tendrils to go poke at the other.]

That certainly is an interesting acquisition, Kimblee. Is this part of the new curse?

[fulmination]

I can only assume so.

<sub>[He takes half a step back purely out of reflex, causing his shadows to skirt up the tree and actually sever a small portion of a branch.

O o p s.

At least they probably feel the same as Pride's!]</sub>

...As you can see, I honestly have no idea what I'm supposed to do with these, let alone how to control them.

[fullmetalfanboy]

[NOMNOMNOM-

Psych.]

Think of your physical body as now a container.

[Though does this mean Kimblee has a philosopher stone at his core? Or did he just receive part of the package? It was almost tempting to rip him to shreds to find out. It just would be a shame to lose him again.]

Sorry, I borrowed him for a bit. I needed a seeing eye dog.

[fulmination]

Ah. I se|

_{[Wait. Vanitas is actually--? And seeing eye--?]}

He's actually being helpful to someone else for once? Are you alright?

I woke up "blind" because I got a power similar to what my girlfriend can do. I guess I triggered it in my sleep or something and it took me a while to calm down enough to see normally.

I'm fine now. And yeah, he came over to try and help. It's

[Weird, strange, unnerving, Vanitas what the hell is wrong with you]

different from how he usually is but whatever, help was needed.

BTW he had an accident with a knife I guess? He says he cleaned up the kitchen already but I wrapped his arm so it wouldn't get infected. I've heard enough horror stories from my brother about nasty infections that I'd rather not see him go through that.

[fulmination]

Blind? That's unfortunate, but it's a good thing it wasn't permanent. What kind of ability can do such a thi|


Accident? Goodness, I'd have thought he would have come straight to me when it happened. I

Thank you, Rin. ...I don't make it a habit to actually worry about someone like this, but thank you for tending to him. I'd hate to lose him over a kitchen accident. I'll speak with him about it if he comes home tonight.

_{[Seriously, Vanitas. Between helping others and this, Kimblee's getting more than a little worried. Maybe this curse messed with his head.]}

[keepsthefire]

Soul Perception. Just like what it sounds like - ability to see souls. It's neat, once you get past the learning to control it.

No idea why he didn't. He's not really talking about what happened. I'll tell him to go home but i doubt he'll listen.

[You're not the only one worried, Kimblee.]

text;

[fulmination]

I wonder how that would work with certain trinkets from my world. They supposedly have souls within them.

_{[Kimblee that's a damn lie you know full well what's inside those stones. Hell, it'd probably look like you were made up of eight people the way it was.]}

Has he said anything at all about it?

voice;

[halfhearted]

[...he can see that convo with Rin.]

I was trying to cut strawberries.

[It wasn't intentional and no one attacked him :|]

voice;

[fulmination]

_[GOOD.]

Idiot.

_{[Gosh, don't worry him like that.]}

voice;

[halfhearted]

[Hissing on the other line.]

I-

[Closing his mouth]

Whatever. I'll see you whenever you're finished with Junior.

voice;

[fulmination]

Vanitas...

_{[Stop being a butt, man >:]}

voice;

[halfhearted]

It's just the curse.

[He will be a butt all he wants.]

voice;

[fulmination]

You still could have came to me.

Maybe you really should put him on a leash.

[Text]

[fulmination]

Or at the very least find a way to get a tracking chip in him.

[Text]

[coolerthansora]

Tracking chip?

[Text]

[fulmination]

It's something I read about the other day. They let you know where the person is, but... They don't quite sit right with me. I doubt you could even get them here.

[Text]

[coolerthansora]

Oh.

[Still not entirely sure how that works but.]

They definitely have leashes though. Probably for pet dogs.

Re: [Text]

[fulmination]

I'm not sure how he would take to being leashed by his partner, though.
