Day 173 | [network | video ] @spectreone; Lost & Found [open]

[dumed]

[ The tablet's camera isn't focused on Kanan. Instead, it's held at a considerable arm's length to show off what he's got in his other hand: Vanitas's pet, wiggling in a spirited attempt at escaping. Kanan's holding it by what would be the scruff on a normal animal. It doesn't seem to be in pain, but who can really tell? ]

Alright, fight thing. I don't know his network name, maybe one of you does - guy with a bad attitude, black helmet, and a skirt? Needs to come pick up his pet. Found it wandering around the museum area alone and it won't stop following me. It's taking up way too much of my food. If he doesn't say anything, it's free to a good home. Maybe it likes to cuddle.

[ He puts the Unversed back on the floor, gently for someone who seems to be so annoyed about it, and refocuses the camera on his face. His goatee is a wreck! ]

Second of all. Ran across some kind of shrine in the apartment building, looked like it was used for blood sacrifice at some point. Decided to give it a shot. [ He holds up one hand to the camera, where the prophet's symbol is marked permanently on his skin. ] Not sure what this does, but I'm guessing it's probably not good.

Third thing, left some supplies in the museum if anyone needs 'em. It's not much but it should tide you over.

-Guess that's it. @spectreone out.

[ Ugh, seriously? ]

Are you coming this way again?

[darkincrement]

Eventually.
Looks like you two are getting along perfectly.

[dumed]

No.

Come pick up your pet or I'm giving it to the monster kid.

[darkincrement]

You sure you want to put the kid in danger?

[dumed]

From you or the ... thing?

[darkincrement]

Both.
You said yourself it tried swiping at you.
And it knows I don't care for the kid.

[ Even if Frisk did bribe the Flood with cheese puffs. ]

[dumed]

Kid seems to think they can take care of themselves.

[ Against the Unversed, anyway. ]

The simple solution here is for you to come. get. your pet.

[darkincrement]

[ He doubts the kid's capabilities. Especially when they went to cry all over Scar Face. ]
Going to meet me half way?

[dumed]

[ A long pause as Kanan considers his goals versus the amount of ass-pain he would feel about caring for Vanitas'... whatever it was. ]

-I can.

[darkincrement]

[ It's a good thing this is text. He'll be a little glad for the company in however long it'll take. Not that'll he'll admit that, especially to Kanan of all people.

He can't wait for whatever this is to go away. ]

Good.
We can meet close to where we first met.

[dumed]

Too far. Got something I need to try out, and I'm not sure if it's time sensitive or not. Think you could get a little closer?

[darkincrement]

Keep me updated and I'll consider it.

[dumed]

You feeling alright?

Sorry

[darkincrement]

Does it matter?

???

[dumed]

Yeah, it matters.

Re: ???

[darkincrement]

I lost something.

Re: ???

[dumed]

[ If anything, Kanan would've thought that would make Vanitas more vicious, not less. ]

Other than your pet?

[darkincrement]

[ He would have been right. ]

Other than that.

[ The "pet" wasn't really important besides it being his.

Kanan will pick up on what he's missing when they meet face to face anyways. Sharing would just save himself the trouble of explaining later on. ]

I got locked outside the other night.

[dumed]

You died.

[ Kanan's surprised, honestly. For all he's a pain in the ass, the kid does give off a certain air of knowing what the hell he's doing. ]

And woke up different.

[darkincrement]

[ He does know what he's doing, he just doesn't know when to stop and came to a dead-end. ]

Looks like it's common for people here.
The fault is probably in the stupid nanomachines.

[dumed]

So what did you lose? Your ability to be a pain in the ass?

[darkincrement]

My driving force.
My anger.
