[ So Vanitas has been terribly frustrated for the last few days trying to figure this out himself. Unfortunately, he isn't really equipped to come to the answers on his own. ]

Normally I wouldn't bother with things like this, but it would appear that all my other options are exhausted or unavailable.

A little while ago I found myself experiencing some strong urges. I can't say that they are entirely unfamiliar, but the circumstances and conditions are different. Wanting to throttle someone and make them pay is nothing new, but because they hurt someone I am acquainted with is. So I suppose my question there is why. This person is perfectly capable of handling it themselves so why is it that I also want to?

Which brings me to the second issue since this is all tied to the same situation. The look this person had on their face? I didn't like it and I don't want to see it again. That is new and I don't know what that means or what it is at all.

This is probably a waste of time, but I can't figure it out. So here we are.

[ tl;dr: Vanitas might actually care about someone - or at least have something of an urge to protect them - but he can't recognize it at all because pfft he's not the sort that does that, right? ]

[ It's not, like, super obvious... But hey, old man? Speaking from experience here. ]

Is possible, I guess. I still hold that opinion that people, in general, aren't worth my time.

[ But Mira is, likely, the first person he's encountered, yes. Though the Ascian would probably figure all this out if he stopped to really think about it. ]

Depending on who all is involved? A chat first and then maybe I'd break their face. Just a little.

[unsundered]

[Yeah he's getting the impression that this is about Mira. Which just changes his question to: who had hurt her? He doesn't think it was himself. At least not recently.]

People are not, you're still quite right about that much. Experiencing one outlier doesn't redeem the rest.

[So don't worry about one feel, it's probably just an aberration.]

Do you not even know who your targets are...? Perhaps I can assist.

[As long as it's not his face, you can break whoever you want.]

There's probably one other person right now that I don't like it when they make awful expressions... But I definitely don't feel the urge to stop whatever causes it.

[ Sorry old man. He still finds some joy in riling the Ascian up. So those awful expressions are more entertaining. However, he'd probably go after anyone else that did it - after teasing of course. ]

I have a target who may be able to lead the rest. Then again, if you offering?

[unsundered]

[Was that part... about himself? Emet-Selch is not at all sure what to think about that.]

How peculiar... I seem to regard someone in a similar fashion. A strange coincidence, isn't it?

[Because yes, it's fine if he riles up the kid, but he's off-limits to anyone else. After some not-so-gentle-mockery.]

And I wouldn't have said so if I weren't offering.

[If you punch the Exarch, can he watch.]

[darkcharge]

[ They can be mutually unsure about that together then. ]

Peculiar? More like outright strange and I wouldn't have thought it possible.

[ Because, really, now they are just playing games here. hey both know Van's been outed at least in this conversation. ]

I might have to get with you on that.

[ And sure. He can watch. ]

[unsundered]

[Another bonding exercise....]

On that much, we can agree.

Well... you know how to find me.

[Good son.]
