Who: Vanitas and YOU!
What: A late onset (or singling out) of a de-aging curse. Vanitas will be his newly created self for the next few, in-game days, and will have no memory of his previous life.
When: Day 128.
Where: Hel and later Gefion Park.
Rating: G or PG, probably no more than that.



[Scenario One: Morning in Hel. There's a kid decked out in the weirdest spiderman costume ever, complete with helmet, prowling around the lower hallways. He looks like he could be lost, and when he spots the nearest inhabitant (lucky you if you happen to be just stumbling out of your room from sleep), expect to be accosted with questions.

"Who are you, and where am I?"]

[Scenario Two: Sometime after lunch, the masked boy has managed to wander out to Gefion Park. His attention's been caught by some geese... or actually, accosted, after he'd accidentally walked over their nesting site by the pond. And they seem to be intent on driving him as far away as possible by flapping their wings and nipping at his back as he tries to escape. Little help?]

[ She shakes her head. ]

That doesn't matter. You needed help.

[showmeanguish]

They could've attacked you, too.

[imhome]

[ If the conversation wasn't so serious, she would have laughed and asked jokingly: "How much damage can geese really do?"

Instead, she gives a small smile. ]

I wasn't worried.

[showmeanguish]

[It was still a selfless act, and one he's trying to figure out. In the back of his mind, he remembers something linked to this... some emotion that had left him.

Kindness?

What does he say in response to that?]

That's gonna get you into trouble, sooner or later.

[imhome]

[ Regardless of the danger, Nina would've helped him. It didn't matter if he was a friend or stranger. ]

I'll be fine.

Are you okay? [ He seems unharmed, but she wants to confirm. ]

[showmeanguish]

[After a second, he nods, still a little confused over this whole scenario.]

Just not used to being helped, I guess.

[imhome]

Well, this can be an opportunity for new experiences, then!

I'm Nina. Nice to meet you.

[showmeanguish]

...Vanitas.

[imhome]

[ For a moment, she blinks in surprise before her eyes narrow. She suddenly feels wary, though her countenance simply looks more solemn and lacks hostility.

He's Vanitas? ...Is this a joke? Or perhaps this is merely a coincidence? There are several Travelers who share the same name, after all. ]

Vanitas? [ A brief pause. ] How long have you been in Asgard?
