vanitas

video; boom baby

[Early Monday morning, he woke up in someone's bed. He pieced together fairly quickly who he was from the ring and the scarring on his stomach and decided to do what any normal person would do given what the alchemist was capable of. After leaving a hasty sticky note to tell the other to keep his eyes on his SFC as soon as he's up, Vanitas left the apartment.

Everyone ordered a wake-up call via Network, right?

Well they were so very thoughtfully getting one. The SFC was propped up to get a view of an abandoned warehouse in the lower district. One that appeared to be Solf J. Kimblee was standing in front of it giving a little bit of a wave before he clapped his hands together. What appeared to be red lightning appeared just as he placed his hands against the building. There was a flash of light, and then a large explosion-

Whoops. He didn’t mean to make it that big.

There is nothing but dust, smoke, and fire. Pieces of debris were falling and eventually something hits the SFC in the right way to turn it off.]

_{[Once Kimblee had put two and two together, he wasn't too worried. He could trust Vanitas to keep his body intact for the most part, but he wasn't so sure he could trust him to stay out of trouble.

Still, he didn't concern himself with it too much until he had woken up completely. He figured he could humor him for a little bit before he went out to find Vanitas himself, right? He wouldn't do anything stupid, right? ...Right?

...Okay, apparently that broadcast just proved him wrong with a nice slap in the face (and a very lovely sound, but he'd dwell on that later). His first priority was the safety of his body and Vanitas.]}

Are you mad?!

[Sorry the number you have dialed has been disconnected-

Nah. It'll take a bit before Vanitas actually responds. He was fine, just covered in dust and the building was still on fire. He was brushing it off and checking himself over when he finally realized there was a response.

From himself of all people.]

Probably. [A pause.] Keep your emotions in check, alchemist. You might wind up making Unversed.

[Brushing off more dust from his clothes.] I thought you would have appreciated the sound. [And he was hoping he would have had enough under his belt to be able to pull it off perfectly and have the other proud.

But it was still fun. It would have been better if people were inside.]

_{[Oh my god he just had those clothes cleaned.]}

You're an even bigger idiot than I thought.

_{[Okay, just breathe. Vanitas had a point--if he kept going like that, he probably would end up making a few Unversed.

Actually, he already did. It's scurrying around the coral, but at least there's only one! Buuuuuut he'd deal with that little incident later. For now, he's going to sigh to himself and pinch the bridge of his nose. At least his bod--Vanitas was unharmed]}

I'll get to that in a moment.

[Watching him for a moment or two. He knows Kimblee will figure out how to control Vanitas' wayward emotions fairly quickly. It's just the rest of the package he's unsure about.]

At least I keep surprising you.

[It was also interesting seeing his own face making Kimblee expressions.]

I think next I'm getting a tattoo. Want anything while I'm out?

I suppose I should consider myself lucky that you didn't end up getting injured. _{[Or worse. He's not sure what that would do to him during the curse.]}

...You know I'd drag you down to the clinic to get it removed, right? It's still my body.

_{[Whoops, the whole pantry is Unversed.]}

...Coffee.

I'm careful. [Especially given who's body this was.]

In that case I should get something dumb then to make it worth it. [Since it might wind up removed.]

Just coffee? [He'll snag doughnuts as well. No telling when his own body will start going through sugar withdrawal.

Maybe soda for when Kimblee's body complains about the lack of caffeine.]

You haven't blown any limbs off yet.

_{[He wouldn't be surprised if he caused caffeine withdrawals with Vanitas by the end of the week. He's gotta fix this body's sleep pattern somehow, right? That means waking up earlier in the morning!]}

I could always get a couple piercings too. Maybe the tongue and ears.

We'll see after I get some more practice in.

[They have a whole week of this.

Does he want a cranky Vanitas in the morning stealing his coffee?]

Go for it. It would make things interesting. [His body heals fast.]

Maybe we can go together. I get the tattoo and you can get piercings.

[He thinks he has all of the dust off before he swaps over to voice. Placing the SFC between ear and shoulder as he walks towards the stairs to get up to the middle district.]

I could just wait until the last day so you'd have to deal with it.

_{[It'd be worth it.]}

...Just don't go blowing up anything bigger for now.

I'll be back in ten. Maybe longer.

[Pausing for a moment. Not going to make any promises about the bigger thing. Not like there was anything abandoned and much bigger than the warehouse.]

Are you feeling okay?
