It's more agreeable than the alternative.

[ Which makes Vanitas gesture to Thancred and his spread out wings. Yes, being a witch is a better alternative to being a monster in the most literal of senses. He's already one as he sees it. ]

But no. I haven't heard anything like that. Maybe the places I've been to just don't have those sorts of creatures.

[wordsinthesoul]

Hah. [He settles his wings again, giving Vanitas a little shrug.]. It's unfortunate how true that seems to be.

[It doesn't please him, obviously, so he turns his attention to Vanitas' answer.]. In that case- what sorts of creatures have you seen in your travels?

[darkcharge]

Ah. You're not happy with recent developments?

[ Sorry, Thancred. Vanitas has found a little kernel of unpleasantness. So naturally he has to poke at that a little. ]

[wordsinthesoul]

[He shrugs, trying to play it off.]

I'm not quite sure who would be.

[darkcharge]

I suppose that's true enough. Though Ventus doesn't seem overly bothered by any of it.

[ Not outwardly at any rate. Maybe on the inside? Hard for Vanitas to know like this. ]

[wordsinthesoul]

Ventus? That's… ah, dare I presume that to be the name of your other half?

[darkcharge]

That's his name, yes. A name I had to give up when we were separated.

[wordsinthesoul]

Would you have rather kept it?

[darkcharge]

[ Well. Thancred has stumped him on that. ]

I. Don't know.

[wordsinthesoul]

[Well. Curious!]

What of your name, then? How do you feel about it?

[darkcharge]

It's a name that was given to me as more of a descriptor of my origins than anything else.

[ So it is what it is. ]

[wordsinthesoul]

I see. [he tilts his head for a moment, considering. It's probably… similar enough to some roots, considering how Garlemald seems to be.]. Do you feel it still apt to yourself now?

[darkcharge]

It likely still fits. A reminder that life is transitional and that, after all this time, I am still empty.

[wordsinthesoul]

…an. And so- that's why this occasion doesn't appeal to you?

[darkcharge]

This occasion doesn't appeal to me because it thinks to mock me.

[wordsinthesoul]

Mock you? […mm. In the state of mind he's thinking of- he thinks he can understand, perhaps.] Then, ought we move elsewhere?

[darkcharge]

I think I'm done for now.

[ But only for now. This guy actually hasn't been too bad. ]

[wordsinthesoul]

Then, I suppose I'll see you again sometime. Until then.
