[Opening up the feed with only his palm in view, there sit three badges.

]

I'm one step further than when we last spoke, Franziska.

[Vanitas curls his palm shut to block the view of the badges then as he lifts the Gear, regarding the screen with a rather smug look.]

How many badges do you have?

[His tone was making it seem like he was asking more than just Frannie about her badge collecting; Vanitas almost appears as if he wants to hear about others as well. Competition, as it was.]

[Aw yeah. Too bad Vanitas can't just leech that negative jealous energy off him like he would normally.]

Really? Then be prepared to find me at the top, and I intend to stay there.

No kidding! From what everyone's been telling me, it sounds like it's going to take forever to get around this place.

[ I'll try and withhold my disappointment. ] Making rivals is still socializing, you know.

Obviously. But simply socializing isn't making friends. Those kind of bonds are useless to me. [Why are you even talking to me ugh e_e]

The time can be spent training. [He gives a half shrug.] But some ride their Pokemon to get around more quickly.

What's so useless about them? [ because you're a part of Ven and because Rise isn't about to get scared off by you ever. EVER. ]

[Is it because I was made from a derp :|a and therefore, I have some ~~disney~~ derp very deep down under all this ~~square enix~~ darkness?]

I have no interest in them, simply that. They would only get in my way.

Yeah, I know, but it still feels like forever. Battling was a lot of fun at first, but now that I've been on the road for so long, it's getting a little boring.

Try changing the battle routine, or fight them yourself. [Like he does. No, seriously, Vanitas fistfights his Charizard on a daily basis.] It keeps all of them in shape as well as yourself.

[That... never even occurred to him. Especially since he had been told over and over again that it was the Pokémon who did the battling, not him.]

Whoa, I don't know if I could fight any of them without my swords. Maybe I'll just try catching another type so I have more to do...

*--oh it's that weird Sora-look-alike who apparently knows Asuka*

I have five.

I can tell.

Any other questions?

Hand to hand combat works just fine. [Shrugging again, he's only recommending things because he got his ego stroked.] What ones do you have?

[Sorry Hayate, he's giving you a look over and making this face.] Five. And how long have you been here?

[Easy for you to say...!]

Oh, well, I just started out, so I only have two. Gonzales-- [--he tilts the PokéGear to the napping Totodile at his side--] and Ezekiel, a Pidgey.

Pretty cool names, right?

[ possibly. ]

You get strength from them, believe it or not.

I'll be there faster than you.

I don't name mine. [Except when he openly says Void and Dart. ~~At least Dartanian was pre-named.~~] The crocodile one seems to be a water type, from it's coloration. [And Pidgeys are those birds that are almost everywhere.]

I doubt that.

You give yourself a weakness to be exploited. [Get your friendship speeches out, woman >8( I get those all the time from Ventus.]

Nope.

I think I'd get pretty irritated if someone kept calling me "Human" while they told me to do stuff. Plus, it's kinda fun coming up with names.

Yeah, Totodile is a water Pokémon. Do the colors usually have a lot to do with typing?

Aren't you the one who lost to Ven? [ pshaw, friendship saved my Senpai. ]

... ten... and a half months? Though I should have my sixth in another week or two.
