[Hello, Vatheon. This should be a very familiar face to most, but speaking in a very different way from the person it actually belongs to. Anya has familiarized herself with what's happening, but that doesn't make her any less upset about it.]

Oh, you have got to be kidding me. No one told me there were any curses awful enough to put me in the body of a man!

Actually, I'm not even a man. I'm a teenager! A teenager with a penis. Oh god.

And you... kid. Whoever this body belongs to. You had better be on your best behavior with mine. I know several things will be very tempting to your little teenage boy brain, especially if you've never seen a real woman naked, but I haven't given you permission to touch any of them.

...what is going on with this boy's wardrobe?

Well, not being able to normally feel any enjoyment whatsoever is usually a good reason not to stay as I normally am.

[dontyoujustwish]

I guess that is a good reason.

[goddammitaxel]

Quite.

[A particularly violent chomp onto his ice cream stick before he tosses it into the flames. Hmm, are they growing just a little larger...?]

The only time I felt anything even faintly regarding pleasure was when I was fighting or killing someone, and that didn't even last, it was nothing more than an adrenaline rush! It was almost enough to drive me insane.

[dontyoujustwish]

[She doesn't notice the flames growing, but offers the bag again now that he's through his ice cream.]

That's unfortunate. Vengeance was so satisfying for me. The thrill of eviscerating a man or watching him spontaneously combust... Now that lasted.

[goddammitaxel]

Sounds delightful.

[Still, he'll grab some marshmallows and look around for a good enough stick.]

I think you really would have gotten along well with that coworker of mine.

[dontyoujustwish]

Did she also delight in vengeance?

[She looks around a bit, too, since she's almost finished her ice cream.]

What did the two of you do anyway?

[goddammitaxel]

That's certainly one way of putting it.

[Maybe Larxene was a vengeance demon before she became a Nobody? That feels like it would explain so much...]

We were part of an Organization which gathered heartless individuals like ourselves. The goal was to find a way to get back our hearts. Honestly, it just worked best at giving us a purpose.

[dontyoujustwish]

Well, it is nice to have a purpose.

[Okay, marshmallow time.]

[goddammitaxel]

It is. It helped deal with the sudden gaping emptiness somewhat.

[dontyoujustwish]

And since coming here?

[goddammitaxel]

I've learned to keep myself busy. [He pulls the marshmallow away from the flame to look over it a little.] Investigating what's going on here, charting the night sky... I have a dog as well.

[dontyoujustwish]

You're trying to learn to enjoy yourself.

[One hand holding her marshmallow to the fire, Anya fishes out a chocolate bar with the other and attemps to get the wrapper off.]

[goddammitaxel]

I wouldn't say it's so much enjoyment as I need some sort of schedule and work to do. I've spent the last few years extremely busy.

[He starts to nibble just a bit on his marshmallow.]

Unless you're referring to right now.

[dontyoujustwish]

Now isn't exactly normal circumstances.

[Hang on, tearing the wrapper open with the help of her teeth.]

But unless you're planning on flying out there in a spaceship, star-charting is more hobby- than work-material.

[goddammitaxel]

It was something I used to do when I was young. When it came to needing something to do, it was one of the only things that came to mind.

...Do you need help with that?

[dontyoujustwish]

I have it.

[The marshmallow seems done enough now that she'll plant the stick in the ground so she can get the graham cracker box open, too.]

You know, I don't even remember what I used to do when I was young. Besides Olaf anyway.

[goddammitaxel]

Who was he?

[He'll stick with the marshmallow for now. It's a weird habit he forgot he ever had- marshmallow first, then make a smore.]

[dontyoujustwish]

An old boyfriend of mine. I turned him into a troll after he cheated on me.

[Having gotten her smore all put together, she takes a solid bite out of it.]

[goddammitaxel]

[That makes him laugh again.]

Very nice. You definitely would have gotten along with Larxene.

[dontyoujustwish]

Maybe she'll turn up here like the rest of us deceased people.
