Somthing you don't generally do (Herby, ask2 join)

[Kuri, Queen of Feels]

"I am so bored!" Kaid exclaimed aloud, although simply talking to himself.

Even if it had only been just a littlle while after he had just seen someone, the illustionist was starting to like more and more haveing people around; which wasn't nessesarily a good thing to him since most people where scared off by him.

Kaid sighed and looked around. There was literally nothing to do. For now, there wasn't even a single heartless to mess with like heenjoyed doing in this area.. they where just so easy to trick!
But nooo nothing...

Kaid found a near by bench, and decided to sit on it, and look up at the stars. I could be out there somewhere, but noooo I have to stay here for a bit." He thought, no longer playing attention to his surroundings

[herby]

Waltzing down the courtyard of Traverse Towns second district, his brown cloak and hat concealing his features. His head submerged in a book as usual, it wasn’t for a fair time that he noticed that a heart was nearby. He looked up to the source of the delicious, mouth-watering heart. To his surprise he saw a boy, probably in his late teens sat down staring at the sky.

His antenna twitched lightly. He was about to walk along when he thought maybe he would try and indulge in conversation.

Walking slowly towards the teenager he tapped into his mind allowing him to talk. “ Is this seat taken?” he asked looking to the seat next to him. This could be quite good; after all he had nothing else to do.

The disadvantage of being a heartless was he was always wanting to devour hearts, the good part however was that he had somehow been able to keep hold of his sanity when he turned allowing him to resist.

[Kuri, Queen of Feels]

Kaid had pretty much spaced out by now.... he was good at that.
That is until he heard a voice speak to him about a seat. Kaid looked around for a second... and didn't see anybody.
I could have sworn that someone just said somthing to me... Kaid though, then glanced downwards, seeing the little guy. Oh..ok, he's really small... interesting...

Kaid shook his head "Only taken by the air thats in the place right now." Kaid said and smiled friendlily at the small person

Well this is weird... someone who is willing to approach me when there are plenty of other spaces to sit at around... I wonder whats on this guy's mind. Kaid thought.
Most people try to avoid me because I'm scary lookin.

[herby]

Jumping up and clambering onto the seat, during which one of his black claws appeared out of his cloak. Bob nonchalantly replaced the sleeve over his hand and brought his book up to his eyes.

“It’s a nice evening isn’t it” he mused, half talking to himself and half talking to the man next to him. “ My names Bob by the way, what’s yours.” From what he could remember of being human, such questions where mandatory in small talk.

What was the next step… what was the next thing you said in small talk? “ How’s the weather?” was he seriously asking about the weather, had his social ability become that poor already?

Looking down at his cloak, he wondered why he didn’t get something more colourful, its not like it mattered, it wasn’t like anyone was going to stay around him long enough to care but it might of made him blend in a bit more.

[Kuri, Queen of Feels]

Kaid simply listened as the little guy asked some pretty funy questions.

He slightly laughed before answering though. " My name's Kaidian." he said but paused.
'Most people just call me Kaid though, since its easier to say." he added then started to look around a bit at the area.

How's the weather, really? Kaid thought, and turned his attention back to the man sitting nxt to him.

"The weather is fine I guess." he said playfully. "It's kind of dark though, thats no fun." he said and decided to try and make things a little less akward.
Kaid noticed the man was reading a book.. best to question that.

"Whatch'a readin?" he asked

[herby]

He looked at his book quickly, the book. " Oh, its a book on heartless, it details several theory's of what happens when someone becomes one. Through tests and whatnot." he looks at the book, he had read through so many yet had not found anything on anyone keeping their human sanity and mind after being turned.

"I always read, I used to own a stall and sell books." Maybe too much information, what if this guy had seen him selling books when he was a human, he needed to guard what he said, be far more careful with his words and make sure he doesn’t muck this up.


"Are you interested in books? If you are what do you like reading?" maybe this teenager was a bookworm like himself, he remember when he was that age... well through a haze of black mist, all his memories had faded dramatically, and the older ones where there, he could feel them, but he just could reach them and remember. Snapping out of his inner psychobabble he looked back at the teenager, what a tender age.

[Kuri, Queen of Feels]

"That's interesting." kaid said and looked over at the book.
Somehow it amazed him that people had the time to write a book and do research on such a thing as heartless... it just had never occered to him that that was even a subject to write about!

"That's cool, Why don't you anymore?" Kaid asked, but was son asked more questions.

"Naw, I read a lot of books when I was littler, but latley I haven't really found the time to sit and read. I get to jumpy." Kaid said with a sight laugh.
"I used to read a lot of fantasy things when I was little.."
Maybe that's where my powers came from....


( btw, Kaid hasn' realised he's a heartless yet XD )

[herby]

Why don’t I anymore… he wondered the question to himself, this boy obviously hadn’t realised yet. “ I don’t anymore due to… a mid life change.” He cocked his head slightly to the left as he stared up at the man, the bright yellow eyes beneath his hat glaring up at the teenager who was significantly taller than him.

“You can always find time to read, its always good to get a good read in, its knowledgeable. Helps you discover yourself.” Looking down at the floor he decided to go for the strange question. “ Out of interest, what would you do if for some reason beyond your control you lost everyone you ever knew and everything you ever cared for. What would you do?” he looked at the teenager, maybe the question was a bit deep for the young man, maybe not, he seemed quite down to earth maybe it was a good question.

“Why are you jumpy? Don’t worry, I assure you I don’t bite” cocking his head once more he looked up at the nights sky, it was beautiful, staring up at the bright stars, they shone so brilliantly, but Bob knew the truth behind them. Each world had a heart, and these hearts called to him, asking him to go and devour them, asking him to come and be what he was, give in to the temptation to be a ravenous heartless. This was something that he refused to do, he wouldn’t become like the rest, and he would be himself, bob, and nothing less nothing more.

[Kuri, Queen of Feels]

How did I not realise this before? Kaid thought as the small.. man looked up at him with his yellow eyes.
it's not a little guy... its a heartless!!!! Kaid thought, and for a second, his gaurd flaired up.. however he soon calmed down agian... this one, seemed diffrent.

"Hhhmm... i'm not exactly sure what i would do. generally, people don't like me... but recently i guess I have more to fight for now. But if there was nothing I could do, i guess I would just exept my fate... although, i'd really like to tell those few that I care for that i was sorry." Kaid answered and looked up at the sky as well.

"I'm not scared of you. Don't worry." Kaid suddenly said.
"I know what it's like to be feared for things that you can't control." he said then looked down at the little heartless man.
" After all, I've been confused with a heartless myself a few times. Black hair, yellow eyes, likes to climb things and hide in the shadows." Kaid said a it playfully.

To lighten up this tense mood a bit, Kaid decided to play with his powers.
Kaid held out his hand infront of him and made a small reptile, maybe a lizard or a snake suddenly appear and start to wrap itsself aroun Kaid's wrist and hand.
He sighed as he looked at the creature, knowing that it really didn't exist.
He then allowed it to simply dissolve into another on of his hands as it turned into a few small butterflys, that simply poofed out of sight after revealing their colorful wings.
While he did this he slightly glanced over at his little heartless friend so see i he coul see any signs or any sort of reaction to this.

[herby]

Bob listened to the boy, considering this guy was just in his teenage years he was amazingly wise for his age. Obviously he had been through similar circumstance, obviously not the same, not many people are heartless and get to talk about being one of them.

He watched carefully as the strange lizard crawled around, it was intriguing to say the least, so it seemed this boy could create and disperse illusions at will. He watched for a while longer, bemused by the strange little creature, then it changed, it dispersed into beautifully colored butterfly's. If he had a mouth he would of smiled instead he made the strange insectoid sound that shadow heartless occasionally made. It was all he could do.

Cocking his head slightly he saw that the boy was looking at him, was this a trade off of powers?

“When I first turned I thought I could use elemental magic... its similar but slightly different because...” and with that he placed a hand out and a black flame sprouted into his hands, small green fumes leaking from it. “ All of my magic is dark elemental.” He let the small ball of flame drift around the area before splitting it up. Controlling it they became similar to jack o lanterns, floating around with a face in the flame before they eventually dispersed into small sparks.

Remembering his book he placed his hand to his side and it entered a black puff of smoke, the corridors of darkness. The black goo molded around his hand and Bob pulled out a large book. “This tome is where I've learned everything from so far, theres so much more to learn though.”

[Kuri, Queen of Feels]

Once bob started showing off his powers a bit, Kaid acctually did get a little scared.

Best to keep in mind no matter how friendly he is... he's still a heartless and still could kill me. Kaid thought as Bob started to take a book out of the darkness pretty much.
It kind of amused Kaid though. The little heartless really liked books, who would have thought?

"That's a pretty scary lookin' book you've got there." Kaid said and smiled. "Is it like the guide to being a heartess?" he asked once bob had said the had learned from it.
"I don't quite understand..."

[herby]

He looked at the boy for a moment… was he serious? “A guide… to be a heartless.” His antenna twitched slightly as his head cocked to one side. “ I don’t know if you haven’t noticed, but I’ve never met a heartless like myself. I can keep being me, all the others are mindless. There’s no guide… This book is a tome that I learnt my magic from.”

Looking down at his book slowly he flicked the pages open, flicking to a large red piece of fabric that was used as a bookmark. “ This is where I am at the moment, im learning basic shadow manipulation.” He wondered if this boy knew what he was talking about.

“I mean I sound different in many ways. But at the end of the day, I am a heartless, I still look the same as any other, I just hide it with cloths.” Toying with the small silver hoop that is through his ear he looked up at the boy for a moment before asking a very strange question.

“If you don’t mind me asking… What is your story… where have you come from? What happened, what brought you here? I know all this stuff is a bit weird but its not like I can ever tell anyone, who would listen to a heartless?” He cocked his head once more before looking up at the guy, his eyes beaming.

Having a strange urge to make eye contact he clicked his claws together casting float upon him, floating forwards and rolling directly in front of the boys face, sat cross-legged, his eyes staring directly into the boys. “If you don’t mind… I’d like to know.”

[Kuri, Queen of Feels]

Heh, I guess that was kind of a dumb question... Kaid thought hearing his answer, he seemed like Kaid theory was pretty rediculous.

"I know your diffrent. Normal heartless are dumb and chase my illustions around until they run into walls or fall off buildings." He said with a sight chuckle.
This is what Kaid nomally did to the poor ceature; played with their absent minds until they me their ends.

"Meh.. there really isn't much special about me. Just an average kid wondering around on his own, wondering what the other worlds other then my own have to offer. There is very few people who like me, so I usually just explore and play with my powers." He paused and looked a little confusedly at him since he haddn't really noticed the floating at first.
"I've definantly had some pretty weird encounters here though. Probaby the most fun I've had in a while."he said and smiled.
"People here seem friendlier then any other world I've been in. I wonder why.."

[herby]

“Peoples hearts here are very pure. They are very strong and bright, that’s why the heartless like it here.” He cocked his head slightly thinking he had a theory… a strange theory… one that he wondered if he could carry out or not but it was a long ways off yet. “ Out of interest how do you travel the worlds? I mean I can travel the corridors but you can’t access them, not with a heart anyway.”

He had in his own head devised a plan to allow anyone to travel through the corridors but it would require them to trust little Bob with their lives, and their heart. He wondered in the meantime what the other forms of transport out there was.

“What worlds have you been too, I’ve not been too many despite having the ability to travel with such ease? This is where I lived as a human, died as a human, born as a heartless… and probably die as a heartless. Which was another thing can I actually die?” the question pondered through his head a lot, he was sure he had died before, someone had thrown a plant pot out of a high window and it had crushed him, but then he awoke in the darkness. He didn’t quite understand it at all yet. There was so much to learn, he needed more books.

“I am a heartless you know, even now I want to stick my hand through your chest and rip your heart out, feast on it, have it as my own. I just can resist the urges… my kin cannot.”

[Kuri, Queen of Feels]

The very last thing that bob said scared Kaid a bit... He really didn't want his heart taken from him.
"Thank you for resisting... I kinda need my heart..." Kaid said and looked down at the ground.
Not even just to live... he thought in his head.

"As for how I travel and such, I have a ship." kaid said and looked back up.
"When my world started dieing out, a few people where useing that as means to sell the ships for arge amounts of munny so people could escape. But I simply tricked one of the selers while my illustions long enough to steal it and save my family." he said with almost a proud smile.
"I've only been to a few notable worlds myself, since I found myself wrapped up in this one recently. But I may move on soon-ish. I don't really know." he said but was a little concerd with the one last question he wasn't sure how to answer.
"I'm not eactly sure if you can die or not. I don't know what has happened to the ones that I've disposed of, most of them look the same... so there really isn't a way to track to see if the same one attacks twice."
