My Master didn't have to tell me this, Marie. If one separates the Light and Darkness from the heart, one half will contain that Light and the other the Darkness. Ventus holds the light so it only holds that I have the Darkness.
[ And all this without mentioning the Unversed. That would only strengthen his position in his mind. ]
[Marie admittedly does not know his whole situation. She wants to know more - so she can understand him better.]
Okay, so you are Darkness, negative emotions and just a part of a whole. This is what you are and how you describe yourself. This is also what brings you pain and makes you suffer. Is that how it is?
[That’s unfair, Vanitas. Pick one version and stick to it]
I have been listening to you? You make it clear that you are unhappy with this situation. You said this is the reason why you cannot be happy or make friends.
I wouldn't say that's the reason I don't make friends. That would be because I don't see the point in having them.
[ Though he does not deny the rest of it. It is the reason that Vanitas doesn't know what happiness for himself feels like. Van isn't happy with this situation. Who would be? ]
So you could see a point to having friends, silly! [Marie smiles at him. Hopefully Vanitas does not take this as an offense] Or not, that would be up to you. But do not say you don’t need friends if you have never actually tried making any.
[What a good thing he is in a better place now and there are multiple people who only want the best for him]

The whole 'don't say it unless you've tried it' thing is sort of. Too practical. And then she has to also say that it is up to him. ]
Huh...
[ WHY DO YOU PEOPLE KEEP MAKING HIM QUESTION THINGS. ]

[A lovely smile of the Queen]
Can you promise me that you will at least try to make some friends? No pressure if you don’t feel like that’s for you, but just try it once!
no subject
And how will I know when I have done that? Made a friend?
no subject
Trust me, you will know when that happens!
