005 - video

[hipstermark]

[Vanille's just resting between her Mamoswines tusks, as she records this video, nice and relaxed as the large creature sleeps.

She's totally safe. c: But she has thoughts. On her mind. And she just can't stop thinking...]

...How about we play a game, everybody! [A game. Right.] Let's say you had the power to bring anybody here. Anybody at all! And you two could stay here forever. Who would you pick, out of anybody from any world?
[A pause.]
Buuut... if you've gotten people you really want to be with you, I guess this isn't that fun. What if they didn't remember you? How would you deal with that?
[That's when the video ends... Vanille has reasons for this. She's just been pondering what might happen if she appears... she's got so many worries.]

Hmm. I'm unsure I could make such a selection, then. I have no one single important person.

[Well that's not accurate, Xemnas simply has no important people at all. They're all minions. There's a long pause, then:]

Perhaps one. There is ... an individual I'm sure I encountered before. I don't remember her clearly, but I think she was once very important to me. Perhaps meeting her again would clarify those memories.

[hipstermark]

[Vanille was going to reply in that long pause, asking him how he didn't have somebody that close, but luckily she waited.]
Somebody you've forgotten... do you remember anything about them?

[firstnothing]

Very little, I'm afraid. Not a name, not even a certainty on appearance. I have ...mm, had, an item I believe she gave me once, but there is so little else. Mystery alone can be maddening! I'm sure we were not enemies however..

[There's a sound almost like a sigh.]

So, if the opportunity arose, I would see those questions answered. Just because I may not recognize her on sight does not mean she won't recognize me. It may seem silly.

[hipstermark]

It's not silly!
[Don't mind the Vanille frown.]
If you want to meet this friend again, and if she wants to meet you again - I'm sure you'll meet again! Even if it's only for a little... I've got a lot of new people to hope for, don't I!

[firstnothing]

Heh. If you'd like to, you can. But fate rarely works in such beneficial ways.

[hipstermark]

... [She lets out a slight hm.]
Fate can be really cruel, can't it? It's up to us to look past that, and fight fate. [No matter what. Even though she isn't doing it on purpose, Vanille does slightly twitch one of her hands, moving it slightly to her thigh. Now it was just a reminder...]

[firstnothing]

Do you believe fate can be fought? Or that the future is ordinarily unchangeable?
