❝ Je ne sais quoi ❞

Once upon a time, in a certain place... There lived a hated vampire known as ❝ V a n i t a s ❞ Vanitas roleplay blog.

                    –❝ ...Midnight already? ❞– 

                    There they go, sitting on the rooftops all night like a loon again. At least Noé should be well asleep by now should they decide to return to the room.

[innocentcountrybumpkin]

“It does, except when you’re half asleep.” The vampire replied; letting out a giant yawn. He really did not sleep well last night. Another dream about his childhood. Those always seemed to pop up at the worst times.

Oh yeah, Orlok. Noé in his defense was a bit too drowsy to even think straight. He had nearly forgotten Master Parks was the reason they were here. Then again, you couldn’t blame him with all that had been going on as of late especially after Lord Ruthven’s recent visit. Looks like things were not slowing down for these two, that was for sure. 

“I’m coming…Just wait a moment…I want to look presentable, at least.” Slowly, Noé rises out of bed; stretching his arms out widely before standing up. At least he didn’t fall out of the bed this time or have Murr scratch him awake. He’s sure too to get dressed into his typical clothing away from Vanitas’ ever watching eye.

“Though, I am rather curious Vanitas…how did your meeting go the other day? You never quite told me whom you were meeting with. You said it was some sort of secret if I recall.“

[rustyhopes]

                    --❝ You recall correctly. ❞--

                    They were ready long before Noé, standing ready at the door all the while. Vanitas wanted to be out the door the moment the other’s hat had dropped on his head!

                    --❝ A secret it was and a secret it still is. But you’re free to assume what you like of it. Even you should have an inkling as to what I was doing. ❞--

                    There’s a fondness that set over their features, the sort that softened the corners of his eyes and smoothed the edges of the lips. But they soon turn away from Noé, their expression falling flat once more. 

                    A voice calling to the back of his mind. Reminding them it wasn’t fair. Happiness wasn’t their’s to feel.

                    i know. i know. i know. i know-----

                    Blued hues are cast back over to Noé, a wane grin returning to their features as claw-tipped gloved fingers twist the handle to their door. That was enough waiting. They swing the door open and step out, Noé would surely be right on his heels. Whether Vanitas had wanted him to or not, Noé had been set on walking this path together. 

                    --❝ Perhaps we shall discuss it over tea yet. But only if you make haste! ❞--

                    A discussion where Vanitas could likely inquire a few things of Noé’s doings that day as well, maybe? That was yet to be seen, but they’re a master of deflection so turning a topic from himself to Noé shouldn’t be difficult, not at all!

[rustyhopes]

                  –❝ I see even that Baldy can attract the attention of a female if he tries! ❞--  

                      Or rather. To not have tried at all and still be approached. Surely Dante seemed annoyed at the prospect but Vanitas found it hilarious. So much so they found it difficult to contain themself, short spurting giggles alongside bouncing of heels as azure hues watched the spectacle unfold before them.

                  –❝ Master Dante! ❞-- A teasing tone as glove clad hands wave excessively.  --❝ I never knew you had it in you! You must share with me these untold secrets of flattery you’ve kept to yourself all this time. ❞--

                   –❝ Dante, would you be a doll and help me with these laces? ❞ --

                       Crisp, cool tones meander from Vanitas’ ready room to where their trigger-happy guard waited just outside. The door swinging open just enough to reveal azure orbs and pale skin bathed in the room’s harsh lights. But then they push it, because of course they would, with a leg peaking out to curl around the door’s edge to hold it open, grin spreading enticingly.

                    –❝ I’ve never took you for one to get familiar with clients. What’s this about? You couldn’t possibly be worried for me, could you? ❞

                         They flash an all-knowing smile, something that is known to likely irk their poor broker of an acquaintance. Really... just what was Dante up to with these sudden questions and concerns?

                    --❝ If someone is paying for information on me then you of all people should know you’re not getting anything more than what you already know. And you know quite a bit, don’t you? ❞--

drifters or vanitas no carte?

[innocentcountrybumpkin]

“You have no sense of self-preservation…” Noé replies; slightly irritated by Vanitas’ habits. In fact, many of them bugged Noé, like him waking him up this morning when all he wanted to do was stay in bed.

“But tea does sound nice…Just make sure next time, to set aside enough to pay for our hotel stay and food. I don’t feel like sleeping on the streets, Vanitas.”

[rustyhopes]

–❝ Doesn’t it sound just lovely? ❞

They seem to all but ignore Noé’s first comment as they continued get ready for the day, their belongings neatly set across the bedspread. The quiet buzz of a hum as they buttoned the overly large billowing coat in place did well to fill the short-lived silence.

❝ Ah-- But of course! Not that there is much need to worry about that. Orlok is having this room be kept for us, remember? I doubt he’d allow us to get kicked to the streets, not while he wishes to keep an eye on us that is. Now... ❞ Glove clad hands meet together to make a sharp --CLAP!!

❝ If you wish to join me for tea while the day is still in it’s waking hours then do hurry. ❞–

[rustyhopes]

{ @innocentcountrybumpkin }

–❝ How about we go for some tea, dear Noé? I do believe I still have a spare coin or two, even after that balding broker attempted to bleed me dry. So why not spend it before he comes looking for more, I say! ❞--

Person or situation: is threatening

Vanitas around every threatening person or situation: What are you gonna do? Gonna hit me? Better make it count. Better make it hurt. Better kill me in one shot.

…“You’re lovely.”

[grandukeoriflamme]

Traversing the human realm alone wasn’t the smartest move on the young Duke’s part, but he had to get away from Altus even just for a few hours. With the recent events involving Vanitas and Noe, and the pressure from his uncle, he needed some time to himself. It was difficult to sneak out without anyone noticing, but he’s sure Jeanne will catch up to him and drag him back to the castle the second she caught up with him.

When the sound of the all too familiar voice rings in his ears, Luca stops in his tracks; his body tensing up while to started to shake rapidly. Perhaps he was imagining it, yeah that had to be it. Slowly he turns his head to confirm; gasping once he sees the face of the doctor approaching him. This was just not his day it seemed.

“Call me whatever you want, human.” He starts; trying his best to be strong in front of him. The last time they met, he cracked under the pressure of Vanitas’ wordplay, and he wasn’t about to let it happen again. “And I don’t need Jeanne around me all the time, she has her own business to attend to. I-I can take care of myself! So, what do you want? If you approached me, you must want something.”

[rustyhopes]

–❝ ...I see ❞

Vanitas’ gazes narrow whilst studying Lucius. Or rather... Luca. Jeanne and Noé called him as such, at least. That aside, Luca was clearly on guard, and understandably so. But going out, going as far as to go beyond the border? All without an escort to boot. It was a bold move. Especially after the boy’s most recent assassination attempt. It was quite irresponsible to say the least. But then again, what would you expect from one of such age?

❝ You’re not wrong to assume that, Luca. After all, it is human and vampire nature alike to approach others when they are seeking something. But that’s not the case here, I assure you. You see...there’s nothing more you could do for me that I want at this very moment in time. ❞ Vanitas tells him simply, as if there was little effort in the way their words had been strung together. ❝ Although, I suppose you could say you’ve piqued my curiosity. ❞

Vanitas’ demeanor takes on yet another seamless change as they take their arms from the jacket’s large sleeves in order to fold them across their chest nonchalantly.  ❝ I could live my life without an answer, but pray tell... What are you doing? Trying to get yourself killed? Really now... I spend all my time saving you vampires from yourselves and yet here you are, opening your arms to the dangers of the worlds. ❞--
