Private call to Ven

[Vanitas looks rather pleased, despite trying to obviously not smile at the camera.]

Ventus, I got your package today. Carriers apologized about it being late.. [Pausing a moment, he lets out a sighed breath, a small smile creeping onto his face anyway.] It looks good.

[There's a moment with purple streaking across the screen, paws hitting the Gear and unlocking it for the rest of the network to see; Vanitas petting a very affectionate Purrloin on his shoulder with a red ribbon tied around the kitty's neck, smiling a bit more openly.]

Nitas, don't jump up like that. I was done talking anyway.. impatient.

[Turning his attention back to the Gear, he clears his throat.]

Thanks, Ventus.

[.... o o p s, he didn't know the call unlocked. Well, either way, he's hanging up now, so the feed clicks off.]

Yeah, I'd say so. Maybe the right thing just hasn't come along yet.

Mm. What else is there to really challenge yourself with? [Honestly curious!]

All sorts of things. There're games, or puzzles, or picking up new skills, or...

[This list goes on]

I guess I kind of play games. I learned how to do a hacking trick with the Gears too..

Hacking?

[He's not familiar with that one, Vanitas]

Writing codes to make someone elses Gear turn on and play whatever I want.

...I'd ask why you'd want to do that but I have a guess.

It's funny.

Figured you'd say something like that.

Well it is. Peoples faces when they see something creepy sounding suddenly come from their gears are priceless.

Personally, I like making people smile a whole lot more.

Just another place where we're on different ends of the spectrum. I like scaring people, you like making them happy.

Then...how do you feel when you make somebody else happy?

I don't know. [It's not that he doesn't know, it's more that he doesn't know how to describe it.] Weird.

Would you say it's a bad thing?

... No, I guess not.

Maybe you'll get used to it. Making somebody you care about feel like smiling's realy nice, I think.

[Though of course he does]

Of course you think that. [Rolling his eyes, Vanitas looks away.] It creates a warmth I'm not accustomed to yet.

I'm just glad it's not something that makes you sick or something like that.

Idiot. [His cheeks are taking on a pink tinge, frowning. IT MAKES HIM FEEL WEIRD OKAY.]

[Can't help a chuckle but he'll try to muffle it behind his hand. Maybe we are the same dude, darkstuff]

[Narrowing his eyes suspiciously at that sound.] What was that?

[Stifling, stifling...]

...Nothing.

That wasn't nothing. You're laughing at me, Ventus.

It's...different from when you laughed at me back then.
