[The feed opens up with a view of a full set of badges; all eight of them, shining briefly in some fire light.]

Done in Azalea. Now I will check out Kanto. Maybe they'll provide more of a fight than these 'leaders'. [Vanitas reaches to turn the feed off without really saying much else, but a loud squabble erupts behind him. Turning and unintentionally filming his Murkrow and new Charmeleon fighting over some shiny coins, Vanitas outright grunts.]

What am I supposed to do with another lizard?

[Wait, does that Charmeleon look familiar? If anyone knows Yumi Ozawa, that was her Smaug. There isn't much else to see in the partial darkness, outside of Vanitas breaking up the fight with some irritable words until the Gear times out.]

Who's Yumi?

[video]

[subvertio.livejournal.com]

Someone I was traveling with. She needed to go to Azalea too. [And he didn't care all that much so they went together. Idk?]

[video]

[freshbreeze.livejournal.com]

You were traveling with somebody?

[...Yeah, he's excited, just a little. Progress was made? Oh boy]

[video]

[subvertio.livejournal.com]

... Yes? [What is that sound, Ventus 8|]

[video]

[freshbreeze.livejournal.com]

That's great!

[Obviously you made a friiiiiend, he's kinda proud of you]

[video]

[subvertio.livejournal.com]

Why? [Except she's gone now so lol also Ventus stop making him feel somewhat... awkward.]

[video]

[freshbreeze.livejournal.com]

Because you made a friend.

[Never]

[video]

[subvertio.livejournal.com]

No I didn't. [She was on the road for it though.]

[video]

[freshbreeze.livejournal.com]

It sounds like it to me.

[video]

[subvertio.livejournal.com]

Not really. We talked over text more often and it was the first time we met face to face. We just happened to be going the same direction this time.

[video]

[freshbreeze.livejournal.com]

[...Yeah, he thinks you made a friend, darkstuff]

[video]

[subvertio.livejournal.com]

[Stop making that face at me :|] What.

[video]

[freshbreeze.livejournal.com]

[Never]

That still sounds like a friend.

[video]

[subvertio.livejournal.com]

We were acquaintances, Ventus.

[video]

[freshbreeze.livejournal.com]

If you say so. Still, I don't think you've traveled with anybody else before.

[You know, aside from lightstuff and co]

[video]

[subvertio.livejournal.com]

It was just convenient. [God Ventus, why you read into things >(]

[video]

[freshbreeze.livejournal.com]

[Because he has friend-o-vision]

Is she nice?

[video]

[subvertio.livejournal.com]

I guess? She's gone now.

[video]

[freshbreeze.livejournal.com]

Someplace else, or..?

[He'd like to hope Vanitas didn't get around to having a friend only for them to poof. Friends are very positive things, after all]

[video]

[subvertio.livejournal.com]

I tried texting a few times when Smaug bothered me for breakfast and the Gear said her number was gone. [He knows what it means. He just doesn't know why he got the Charmeleon.]

[video]

[freshbreeze.livejournal.com]

Oh...

I hope she comes back with her memories, like Hope did.

[video]

[subvertio.livejournal.com]

Maybe. [Not holding his breath but it'd be... interesting, to say the least.]

[video]

[freshbreeze.livejournal.com]

It'd be good for you to have a friend.

[You know, somebody who isn't the other half of you. Ven's really not sure he counts]

[video]

[subvertio.livejournal.com]

[Ventus has to learn of Beato still.] I'm fine.

[video]

[freshbreeze.livejournal.com]

[Sure does, but hey]

I know that, but you pointed out once that some games are meant for more than just one person. There're lots of things that're more fun with company.

[video]

[subvertio.livejournal.com]

You assume I'd want to play the multiplayer games. [8|||]

[video]

[freshbreeze.livejournal.com]

I'm pretty sure you like beating other people at things.

[video]

[subvertio.livejournal.com]

Things that require skill.

[video]

[freshbreeze.livejournal.com]

So what're you gonna call it if I beat you?

[video]

[subvertio.livejournal.com]

Luck.

[video]

[freshbreeze.livejournal.com]

Even when it happens more than once?
