Canon is Vanitas no Carte/The Case Study of Vanitas

[inabluemoon]

I don't get why you're still in such shock over the previous chapter, my dear Mundane. One must seize the day when feelings like love are suddenly stirred! I'm in a dangerous profession and I don't have much time to dwell on more personal inclinations you know, and it's not often that I happen upon such an... Exquisite example of a female vampire!

.... Why are you giving me that look??

[STARRRES.]

[inabluemoon]

Even you too??

[seeker_of_vanitas]

I didn't know you were that type of man.

[If Noè ever caught Vanitas trying to kiss Jeanne again, he was going to throw him even farther then he will now.]

[inabluemoon]

That type ? Meaning what exactly...?

[seeker_of_vanitas]

You know exactly what it means because you're one of those types of men!

[The type that Noè was warned of by Teacher and a very amused best friend.]

[inabluemoon]

I swear that I don't know what you're accusing me of, Noé!

That feel when Noè is accusing you of being a player without knowing what a player is

[seeker_of_vanitas]

You're the type who kiss strange people without any form of discretion!

[He never asked Teacher what else these types of men do but it all made sense now!]

I'm laughing so hard Noé is so pure

[inabluemoon]

Kisses strange- pffft!

[Vanitas bursts into laughter for a few moments before smirking.]

Jeanne is hardly strange! However... Could it be that seeing me kiss her struck a chord of jealousy within you and that's why you're upset...?

Noè doesn't even know what happens after the kiss

[seeker_of_vanitas]

I'm not jealous! [He was but simple Noè doesn't know any emotions past like or dislike.]

Why are you laughing at me?

Poor innocent thing...

[inabluemoon]

Hmm... I wonder if that's true.

[He hums, stepping closer to Noé and looking up at him from under his lashes.]

And I'm laughing at how naive you are. It's rare.

Teacher did well at sheltering him but now his kitten is running with a wolf

[seeker_of_vanitas]

I'm not like your type I don't kiss strangers!

[But he will invade their space like it's nothing. Noè gazed down at him, his eyes filled with wariness.]

I'm not naive. [He was.]

[inabluemoon]

[Vanitas chuckles again and shakes his head.]

But you are naive, my dear Noé. That teacher you speak so fondly of may have done well to make you strong, but he taught you little of the world and left you vulnerable.

[seeker_of_vanitas]

Teacher taught me everything I need to know! [Don't doubt Noè's beloved teacher Vanitas.]

How can I be vulnerable when you just said that I'm strong?

[inabluemoon]

I beg to differ.

[Vanitas' smile softens slightly and he pats Noè's shoulder.] There are many different kinds of vulnerability.

[seeker_of_vanitas]

There are different types of vulnerability?

[inabluemoon]

There are. There is vulnerability from being weak of body, there is vulnerability from being weak of will, and there is vulnerability from being weak of mind. There can be others also but those are the most common.

[He tilts his head, still smiling.] You could easily be taken advantage of, is what I mean. You're not stupid, but you're innocent.

[seeker_of_vanitas]

[Noè listed the vulnerabilities that Vanitas had mentioned and felt great relief to know that he had none of those. He was very strong willed -stubborn- and he was very knowledgeable in legends and other places from his books.]

I see. I won't be taken advantage of by your type.

[inabluemoon]

[Just. Stares.

And then he sighs heavily.]

You've completely missed the point, Noè! [And besides, Noè is far too tall for him to reach for a kiss, even with his heels.]

[seeker_of_vanitas]

I didn't. You said I can easily be taken advantage of, but if I know who would try to take advantage of me, then I'll know. [Simple elementary!.]

[Noè doesn't know that. All he has to do is sit down and Vanitas could strike.]

[inabluemoon]

Ah Noè, your thought process really is too much of a puzzle for me sometimes.

[Of course he really has no right to condemn anyone for following logic that is a bit twisted- and in the end Noè is right to be a bit wary of him.]

Hey just curious but would you want to do a meme or two with them?

[seeker_of_vanitas]

I could say the same about you and your choices.

[Yet he still fell out an airship to save him. So maybe he was strange too.]

Sure! Did you have any in mind?

[inabluemoon]

Haha! Well, you would hardly be the first one.

A few things! What are your 'yes' and 'no's?

[seeker_of_vanitas]

I'm not surprised, you are one of those types of men after all...

I'm really pretty open to about 98% of things haha

[inabluemoon]

... Please stop referring to me like I'm some type of dandy.

Shipping memes cool? or do you wanna do gen?

[seeker_of_vanitas]

Your actions say otherwise.

I'm fine with shipping!

[inabluemoon]

Noè, I can assure you that there are far more flirtatious people out there than myself!

Okay! I tagged the hentai trope meme just recently!

[seeker_of_vanitas]

Kissing isn't simple flirtation!

[inabluemoon]

Kissing is a common form of greeting in many countries, you know!

((ooc: Do you have a preference between 5,18, or 23?))

I'm open to any of them or we can do a mix if you want!

[seeker_of_vanitas]

Not your kind.

[He won't be fooled by Vanitas this time.]

[brothertragedy]

Well. Are you quite certain she doesn't intend to make a meal out of you?

[inabluemoon]

If she intended to she surely would have tried already.

[She did try to beat him with a coffin, but he's forgiven that.]

[grimreap]

[ that word. vampire. there's a barely perceptible tilt to her head, sanguine eyes steady.

vampires meant different things to different people, here. still, it doesn't mean she has to like the word; it's a bit distasteful. ] It was - an odd action to take in the midst of a fight.

[inabluemoon]

[He blinks innocently.]

Was it? Hm... Perhaps, but like I said! My emotions in that moment simply couldn't be contained!

[grimreap]

[ just. so much subtle squinting.

...moving on. yes, it's better to move on she isn't even going to pretend she has a follow-up to this topic. ]

Vampires - [ guh. ] - what are they like, where you're from?
