Twenty-Third Sacrament: Unity

Who: Walter, Diana, Jinx and Vanitas
Where: Fuchsia City
When: 5th March
Summary: Four traitors uniting to form something new...?
Rating: T for mentions of Pokemon abuse?

Log: 

The meeting place, arranged by simple, cryptic letters ferried by Pokemon or sent over Gears, was a small, hole-in-wall cafe, off the beaten path nearby the studio. The Purrloin's Paw was a humble place, most often sought by locals as the Starmiebucks around the corner attracted the eyes of tourists and the famous/infamous workers of the studio. On this particular day it was extremely empty, with only two employees behind the counter, quietly talking to themselves.

Walter was already inside, seated at a corner table that let him see the doorway but hid him from direct line of sight. Assumption was sat at his side, club on his lap as he ate a poffin. Gloom was in his shadow, waiting for his command. Once everyone was gathered and general polite welcomes had been made, she had her orders; hypnotise the workers into a deep sleep and lock the door, flipping the sign to 'Sorry! We're Closed!' Then, they could discuss their 'problem' with Team Rocket.

Once they had their chats and made their preparations, they'd simply stroll out into the sunshine, leaving the cafe and it's sleeping workers as it was...possibly minus some treats from the display counter.


[ While this is made for the group to talk as one, feel free to start threads between characters privately to catch up and assume that there's some casual banter going on too! ]

"Pretty sure lying is your job." Diana grins at him. "Right? They're like perfectly round. It's so cute." At the pet the Natu's eyes open wide and blink up at Vanitas. "See? Told you so."

"Only sometimes."

An eyebrow goes up when the little bird actually opens its eyes but he grins softly a moment later.

"Alright, alright, point made. Morning, sunshine."
keep_surviving: (swear you know best)

The little bird makes some clicking sounds with its beak then chirps.

"Her name's DiDi. It's a really stupid and dumb joke that doesn't even really make a whole lot of sense when you explain it." At least she's honest.
bleedingunversed: (♟82)

"Didi. I like it, even if it is a dumb joke I probably won't get even if I had context," Vanitas mused, shooting Diana a grin. Let's be real, he doesn't understand most stuff from her world since his world is so different. "You're better at naming than I am most of the time. I just name stuff after my Unversed from home."

Diana snorts. "I don't think you've heard enough of the dumb shit I've called my guys if you think I'm any good at naming things." Her brow furrows curiously and she cocks her head slightly. "What's Unversed?"
bleedingunversed: (♟60)

[personal profile] bleedingunversed 2018-03-28 09:04 pm (UTC)(link)
Vanitas just snorted before his expression melted into something thoughtful, perhaps even a bit distant.

"Unversed..were creatures--monsters that were created from my emotions. I used them to take over worlds while I was under Xehanort's control," he explained--admitted to Diana, gaze focused on Veritas and Red Hot. "They were mine and mine alone to control."

"You made them?" Diana watches his face for a moment. "Huh. That's cool. Not the taking over worlds part, that's kind of a maniacal super villain kinda thing. I mean the listening to you part." Even the one thing she'd ever managed to make never listened to her. "I'm not really the kind of person in charge of others so I dunno what that's like."
bleedingunversed: (♟14)

[personal profile] bleedingunversed 2018-03-29 09:44 pm (UTC)(link)
"Yeah..my former master encouraged it. Wanted me to be as strong as possible so when I finally crossed paths with Ventus we could forge the X-Blade without fail," Vanitas drawled, rolling his eyes slightly like it was nothing all that important but even now it made him feel weird. It made something inside him ache. There was a sense of longing that he couldn't shake even after almost a year on his own.

"It's a lot of responsibility so it's not worth it in the long run, trust me."
keep_surviving: (all my life I've tried to make everybody)

[personal profile] keep_surviving 2018-03-30 12:18 am (UTC)(link)
"Master, huh?" She thinks on what he's saying. "Hmmm, I have no idea what you're talking about." Diana grins and touches at his hair.

"Well, I am all for running away from responsibility." A pause. "Though, actually, I'm supposed to be getting better at that."
bleedingunversed: (♟27)

[personal profile] bleedingunversed 2018-04-01 01:12 am (UTC)(link)
"Probably better that way."

Maybe one day he'd tell her the whole story. His story. But right now he was content with her just knowing him as he was here in this world.

He grinned and reached out to poke her side.

"Gosh, Diana. How dare you not shoulder all responsibilities always."
keep_surviving: (but you expect me to jump up on board wi)

[personal profile] keep_surviving 2018-04-01 01:26 am (UTC)(link)
"Don't want me to know your dirty little secrets, Vani?"

She looks down at where he poked her then looks at him with challenge in her eyes. "Do you want me to tickle you?"

Diana snorts and shrugs. "I know, I'm the worst." Yeah, she's very much aware of that.
bleedingunversed: (♟07)

[personal profile] bleedingunversed 2018-04-01 01:29 am (UTC)(link)
"..Not yet," he said softly, giving her a look that very clearly said 'Later'. He'd tell her but not right now. It wasn't the time for it.

"Try it and I'll bite you," Vani drawled, leaning back on the bench with a snicker. "The absolute worst. You should be so ashamed."
keep_surviving: (just not the listening)

[personal profile] keep_surviving 2018-04-01 01:53 am (UTC)(link)
Diana just smiles at his look, relaxed. If Vanitas wants to tell her or doesn't want to tell her she's fine either way.

"Don't make promises you can't keep." She sits down beside him. "I am. All the time. I hide it behind smiling and sarcasm but it's actually a deep pit I can't escape."

And then she laughs.
bleedingunversed: (♟12)

[personal profile] bleedingunversed 2018-04-01 06:18 pm (UTC)(link)
"I plan on keeping this one," he said with a shrug, waiting until she was sitting down before leaning his shoulder against hers. His expression turned thoughtful at her comment even as she laughs and he looks down at the two Pokemon in his lap as Flood drift around to settle on Diana's shoulder.

"I guess there's a reason we're all drawn to one another, huh? You, me, Walter, Jinx.."
keep_surviving: (Tickled)

[personal profile] keep_surviving 2018-04-01 07:39 pm (UTC)(link)
Diana just leans back against him, still smiling as she turns her head to Flood and nuzzles her affectionately.

"Honestly I think Jinx only hangs out because she's got the hots for me." Another laugh. "She's like actually normal. Dunno why she hangs out with us freaks."
bleedingunversed: (♟61)

[personal profile] bleedingunversed 2018-04-01 07:44 pm (UTC)(link)
Flood giggles and returns the nuzzle, giving Diana's cheek a kiss.

"Huh. Well, I guess every group has to have the one normal person," Vanitas mused, watching his Phantump and Diana with a small grin. "Hots for you? You mean like she's crushing on your or something?"
keep_surviving: (and try not to waste anymore of mine)

[personal profile] keep_surviving 2018-04-01 08:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Diana chuckles. "You're such a cutey."

"Actually, I think it's supposed to be the other way around. But that'd be too normal for us anyway." At his question Diana gives him a long, sly grin. "Why else do you think she'd put up with a train wreck like me?"
bleedingunversed: (♟80)

[personal profile] bleedingunversed 2018-04-01 08:37 pm (UTC)(link)
"We can't do anything right so it's fitting our group dynamic is backwards," Vanitas drawled before snorting softly. "If you're a train wreck what does that make me? And Walter for that matter?"
keep_surviving: (Eavesdrop)

[personal profile] keep_surviving 2018-04-01 08:54 pm (UTC)(link)
"Nail on the head there." She lolls her head to bop it against his shoulder. "Oh, well you're a brat. We all know that. Walter is..." She pauses for a minute. "Walter is a someone who really needs a hug."
bleedingunversed: (♟53)

[personal profile] bleedingunversed 2018-04-02 02:33 am (UTC)(link)
An eyebrow goes up when she says that Walter needs a hug but..well, maybe she's not entirely wrong about that.

"If you say so. He's definitely something, that's for sure."
keep_surviving: (you are not me)

[personal profile] keep_surviving 2018-04-02 03:31 am (UTC)(link)
"Yeah, he's something alright." She has a small, private smile before side hugging Vanitas. "Just like you!"
bleedingunversed: (♟21)

[personal profile] bleedingunversed 2018-04-02 03:21 pm (UTC)(link)
He makes like he's going to try and pull away before slumping against her and into the hug. "And you. We're all a special kind of something."
keep_surviving: (all my life I've tried to make everybody)

[personal profile] keep_surviving 2018-04-02 10:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Diana scoffs at that first part. "I'm a special kind of terrible, yeah." She continues to hug him. "But you're pretty great."
bleedingunversed: (♟27)

[personal profile] bleedingunversed 2018-04-07 10:27 pm (UTC)(link)
"Pretty great at being just as terrible," Vanitas murmured, momentarily flustered by her comments. He wasn't use to this. To people wanting him around; hugging him. Even after almost a year here it was still a lot to get use to.
keep_surviving: (just not the listening)

[personal profile] keep_surviving 2018-04-07 10:58 pm (UTC)(link)
"Aww, that's not true. You're one of my fav guys." Diana's going to just lean against you, hugging you until it's time to go inside now, Vani.
