Let's gather 'round the campfire

Characters: Ventus and EVERYBODY
Setting: Halls of the first floor Dormitory, near the stairs.
Format: Prose to start, will match you~
Summary: The power's gone out, so Ven's starting a bonfire.
Warnings: ~~Magical fire and possibly singing~~ TBA

Ven had only been in the tower for a little while and already something was going on. He didn't exactly understand what was going on, only that it was dark and creepy, and that none of the lights were working. Except in the rooms, but those emergency lights were almost creepier than the darkness.

He had managed to gather up some flammable materials into a pile at the end of the hallway, and with a quick "Fire!" the flames were burning and there was at least some light. And a source of heat! Thus he sat against the wall making sure the fire didn't go out, blissfully unaware of any creepy crawlies.

Whoever came up with this idea is absolutely brilliant. Excellent work.

Blame him. [Rox pointed at Ven.] He's the one that "cast" it.

[~~why does his doppelganger get cool abilities grumble grumble~~]

[looking from Ven to Roxas]

And he is your...brother? No. That's not familial resemblance. That's different. That's very odd. The genetics are strange. Interesting.

It's a shame we don't have marshmallows, eh Roxas? Marshmallows and custard.

[He waved enthusiastically and beamed when Roxas pointed him out] Thanks! You're welcome too!

...Hm. Strange genetics? Do you think you could figure out why we look alike then?

...Custard?

Perhaps.

[he waves his sonic screwdriver in your face]

It's be easier if I had my TARDIS.

[he grins]

Yes, custard! One of the very best foods ever. Absolutely brilliant, delicious, and amazing in every way. Not like beans. Beans are evil. Or toast. Horrible thing, toast. It should stay away from this tower.

...? [He also would appreciate figuring out whytf Ven looks like him.]

If you could figure it out, I think we'd both appreciate it. We sure can't.

[Hn...would marshmallows taste good with custard...? This requires thought.]

So...what if there was custard on toast? [THIS IS MOST SERIOUS DISCUSSION]

I will do my very best.

[WHAT ARE YOU SAYING THAT IS HORRIBLE WHAT IS YOUR PROBLEM]

Don't say that! Mix something as holy as custard with something as horrid as toast? Blasphemy. I won't be having any of it. Not in my house. Er. My TARDIS. Er. This tower that is not mine in any way, whatsoever, except for that bit of wall I wrote my name on, which is mine. Now.

Thanks!

[TAKE THAT?]

...you really like custard. [Blink.] I'm more of an ice-cream sort of person.

[He nodded in agreement with Roxas. One mystery out of the way'd be nice.]

[And he just kind of looked at Roxas and the Doctor oddly when came this discussion about putting custard on toast.]

What's wrong with toast? Or beans? Hmm.. [He's thinking very seriously about all this food stuff.] I wonder if custard and ice cream would taste good.... or marshmallows and beans... toast and ice cream...? Or custard and beans....

That I do! It's brilliant. My taste buds are a bit...funny this time around. Much weirder than last time. I'm terribly picky. I don't even like apples anymore. Those used to be my favorite. Alas.

[...that is amazing /bookmarks for reference]

Ice cream is rather good too, though. I wonder if we can make it here. Hmm.

And you, Roxas' not-brother-person-thing, do not speak of evil things like beans and toast.

Custard and ice cream, however. I am okay with.

...last time around...? [Eyebrows, up to here.]

I prefer sea-salt- [Oh god making icecream-] You...mean they don't normally have ice cream...?

[He is legit pouting. Pouting. Actually pouting and not just looking sad.]

You don't like apples anymore? [Ven is just as confusedface as Roxas here.]

H-Hey, I have a name you know! [Nervous chuckle.] I'm Ventus, but call me Ven.

[No icecream what is this. This is a problem that must be fixed.] Well, if they don't normally have ice cream, maybe we can make some when the powers fixed and try it with custard.

Not anymore. New face. New body. New taste buds. It's all logical, really.

And it is very nice to meet you Ventus, call me Ven. Venny, even. The Venster.

We can easily solve the ice cream problem. We'll just have to make our own. I bet Miss Maple knows how...

...making icecream?

[I wish I had a desu icon for Rox right now. Yeah sorry, hes spacing out over WEE ICECREAM MAKING.]

Did you transfer bodies or something?

[Laughs] 'Venster'? I like it! [Dorkdorkdork.]

We should ask Miss Maple to help us then! [Excusing he has no idea who that is, but eh.] It sounds like fun!

Regenerated. I'm a Time Lord, ou see, and Time Lords don't die. We regenerate. I get a new face, new body, new personality, and this time [he adjusts his bowtie] a cool bowtie. I glow a bit and hirts a little, but that's the basic idea.

I'm sure Miss Maple would love to help us. She's blonde, very sweet, and wears glasses, if you're looking for her.

[~~DADDY IS MISS MAPLE YOUR GIRLFRIEND~~]

...oh! [He's done spacing now.] Do you think she'd mind helping? I don't want to harass anyone if they don't want to.

Ooh, I get it. So it's kind of like sped-up reincarnation? [He knows about reincarnation but not what a flashlight is.]

~~[if he's your daddy does that make him my uncle]~~

I'll keep my eye out, and then we can all make ice cream! [MISSION START. Roxas has to be the polite one 'cause he didn't even realize someone wouldn't want to make ice cream.]

[WELCOME TO THE FAMILY]

Sort of, yeah.

I'm sure she won't mind. She's very nice.

[He's still unsure, but he'll take your word for it doc. For now.]

Reincarnation? [Yeah he forgot about that convo bit and is thus confused.] ...man, there wasn't anything like that where I lived. That or magic.

[~~DADDY CAN WE GO PLAY BALL~~]

[YAAAYY~]

[Also brb happy derpface at ice cream making prospects.]

[And a slight chuckle at Roxas.] Maybe there was and you just didn't realize it.

Oh. It's everywhere. Most people never notice, though. A shame, really. All the adventures to be had...

...aside from everything freezing, wordthieves, and those weird monsters, I don't think there was any magic. [Even while being messed with by obviously-magical forces in his own home, he still has a hard time believing in magic.]

Weird monsters? Wordthieves? [Sounded like some kind of magic to him, especially if it had to do with the Unversed.]

Heh, maybe you can tap into your own magic some day and deal with them then. And go on your own adventures! [Laughs]

Oooooh, yes! Adventures! I love adventures! Adventures are what I live for! How I live! Where I live! The Doctor's never ending adventure! Haha!
