-010- [voice] usual spoiler warning

[vanityunbcoming]

[As this entry opens, there's several seconds of faint birdsong in the background. A good indicator that Vanitas is outside somewhere. Why not? It's finally overcast and not so glaringly hot, today.

Just when it might seem the journal was clicked on accidentally, a voice finally speaks up, cool and even as always.] Once upon a time, there

A kid from some tiny, backwater world huh?

[vanityunbcoming]

Just telling it like it is.

[meteorical]

What are you trying to get out of this now, Vanitas?

[vanityunbcoming]

I'm interested in other peoples' opinions. There something wrong with that?

[meteorical]

Maybe just a little. Depends on what you're going to do with those other peoples' opinions.

[vanityunbcoming]

Use them to my advantage. [There's no reason for him to lie, really.]

[meteorical]

Good to see things haven't changed. What if their opinions don't help you though?

[vanityunbcoming]

It's what anyone does when they ask a question and get an answer in response.

That's the risk in asking, isn't it?

[meteorical]

...you've got new goals. I'd say you're not the type to take a risk, but I'd be lying. You don't think people are going to be a little suspicious?

[vanityunbcoming]

Who said anything about goals? I'm just trying to have a conversation. You're the one jumping to conclusions.

[meteorical]

Are you telling me I'm wrong then? [She might be willing to accept that, actually. She's not entirely sure what happened to him post-death.]

[vanityunbcoming]

Does it surprise you?

[meteorical]

Coming from you, yeah. It does.

[vanityunbcoming]

Fine. Truth is, I'm wondering about my fate.

[meteorical]

And just what ideas do you have about your fate?

[vanityunbcoming]

If I knew, I wouldn't be wondering, would I? [Which isn't exactly true, but he's not going to tell that much.]
