Huh. That's strange. There was a stranger by a tree near their house. Glamouring up was definitely a right call, if their key companion nagging at them didn't already.

Gently going outside, a very human woman stepped out with a awkward but likely harmless person behind her.

"Hey there! Admiring the ocean view I see?"

The house was nearly against the beach. Maybe a few minutes walk but one could still smell the salt of the water.

"You're welcome to stay if you like, stranger. Just wanted to check in on you."

The other person that seemed nearly glued to the woman's hip was glaring at the intruder. Like they know something she doesn't.

"Oh hi there, you must be..." as she checks her phone, "Pancakes right? Nice to meet you."

“Am I dead? Oh, sorry. I really thought I was dying. I really did.”

"I-- I kinda thought you were dying too, how..."

He's a little on edge around the other, still a bit off put at the fact that the two of them shared a face. Vanitas was definitely someone he was not expecting to see-- especially not after everything with Xehanort was finally over.

"What are you doing here?"

@not-someones-shadow liked THIS for a starter ;;

"You're late," the elder emphasized, voice a hiss as it wavered over towards Vanitas. He didn't spin around to face the other; though if one looked closely, they could see the slight shimmer of magickal shields around his form. It glistened only slightly within the current low light of each of their surroundings. His hands remaiend behind his back, as per usual, but his fingers were itching to call his keyblade.

“A little bit of arson would be really therapeutic right now.”

"Uh. No! You canNOT comment arson!"

She rubbed her temples, feeling a headache forming. Was this why her father could be so grumpy after dealing with Vanitas.

"By the Seven, Vanitas.....You know. You can set the Heartless on fire. Boom. Compromise."

Despite promises made to several people, Vanitas finds himself hiding out in the keyblade graveyard - more often than not. It's a home to him, so he feels. Normal here, he guesses. But when he steps through one of his doors, out into what he assumes is his home, something feels wrong. Like he isn't supposed to be here. And like a cat, his heckles are raised, summoning Void Gear without really thinking about it until he turns and see's. Himself? He stops, and just stares at this person, standing a good few feet away, body tense. "What the fuck are you."

"Monster."

a STARTER for @not-someones-shadow ;;

The elder master immediately threw the Flood across the room - wanting to make it disappear.

'' ... what did I say about them being in the kitchen?" Xehanort drawls out, huffing out a sigh. ''No matter .. Kill it,'' he commands, as he scoots out one of the chairs to the table nearby. Steam rises from the tea cup sitting on the table, and he carefully pulled it towards him. ''Besides - they're useless. And in the way far too often.''

He knew very well they've often leaked out - at least that's how he'd describe it - out of the boy, but that was perfect in a way too for his goals. But .. it did seem pretty pointless due to going with the long-plan instead of the old shortcut ...

Still, it seemed ideal to keep the boy under his control due to having him as a vessel. And old habits very much die hard for Xehanort.

But oddly enough .. He motions to in front of him.

''.. Enjoy some tea with me."

It seems very flip-floppy, but the elder master wants to find a balance in his attitude towards the other.
