[Ventus couldn't say that this week so far had been fun. Not that he'd remember it as more than a blur. Once the Mist had arrived, Ven's mind had locked up with fear.

He'd thought he'd been safe from it - from it's affects. He was wrong, and now, head in hands as he sat in a random hall just inside from the courtyeard, he could feel it in him -

Dammit...!

[He'd lost track of Ventus awhile ago. Just five seconds, his back is turned, and then Ventus had wandered off. The boy might not have noticed--one of his zombie moments--but now they're separated, and he knows just how badly this could end with Mist on campus.

Finally, though, he catches the boy wandering toward the outside. A burst of speed and he's reaching for his Other's shoulder.]

Ventus.

Hey. [He smiles - like nothings wrong - and for him, it's not. Vanitas was the one that vanished, not him.] Where'd you go?

[An innocent question really, but it probably gives more insight to him that he knows, right now.]

[breaks_him_in]

You're the one who wandered off, idiot.

[He takes Ven's hand, refusing to let go. His other half is being effected and he'll be damned if he'll let the Mist take him.]

[As if on cue, a thin vapor slinks across the ground towards them, seemingly silent at first, but if Ven and Vanitas care to listen closely, they might hear a whisper or two on wind.]
