[Video #2]

[nightraysewerat]

[The man is well dressed, in a dark suit, ruffled white shirt showing beneath the jacket. He looks quite put together, though his long blond hair falls free, around his shoulders. In fact, it falls forward into his face a little as he moves, covering one eye, the remaining one a startling gold.

He looks as if he isn't paying attention to the Dreamberry at all, at first, as he walks around a room, taking bright shiny sharp scissors to every piece of fabric he can find, from curtains to cushions to clothing that he has dragged out of the closet.

Then he pans the room, to give the full effect, and stops the camera on the face of the young woman lying asleep in the bed - her clothing intact though her pillows and blankets are a little worse for wear - one Vanessa Nightray.]

So, shall we begin taking bets on my lifespan when she awakens?

What are you doing?

[nightraysewerat]

Redecorating my sister's room for when she awakens.

[He pauses, smiling.]

Do you think she'll like it?

[songs-and-leeks.livejournal.com]

Hm, I don't know. What's her style like?

[nightraysewerat]

She likes nice things. Not necessarily the most feminine, but nice.

[Certainly not shredded things like this.]

[Ah, it's Vincent... and he's...

...OH! OH NO! That's-- Miss Vanessa will be furious! Ada doesn't want him really getting hurt, so... instead of wasting time in speaking, she ran straight to Vanessa's room.

She apologized to no one in particular before letting herself in.]

Oh no.... Miss Vanessa's going to be furious...

Re: [action]

[nightraysewerat]

[Not her. Please anyone but her.]

That's the idea.

[Vincent turns, giving the scissors a little clip in her direction, though obviously she's still across the room from him.]

Won't it be fun?

Re: [action]

[purethingsonly.livejournal.com]

I don't want to see Miss Vanessa hurt you...

[She's been on the receiving end of that anger and she wouldn't really wish that upon anyone. Certainly not over a little torn cloth, but... certainly that would be what would happen when Miss Vanessa found out.

Oh dear.]

[marked-as-prey.livejournal.com]

Why would you take bets on something like that?

[nightraysewerat]

For fun? Why else would someone gamble?

[marked-as-prey.livejournal.com]

B-but is it really fun if they're going to get angry about it?

[tenthguardian.livejournal.com]

W-why would you do such a thing?

[nightraysewerat]

Because my sister is adorable when she's angry, of course!

[He glances toward Vanessa's sleeping form, smiles.]

Don't you ever play pranks on your family members?

[Never mind that 'family member' is sometimes a loose term here. It's not as if his adoptive siblings wanted him so terribly badly, and he's aware of that.]

[tenthguardian.livejournal.com]

I cannot say that I did, no. Friends, perhaps, long ago when I was still young. But not my siblings. And I hardly destroyed their belongings doing so.

[The door slams open to reveal a completely speechless younger brother staring into the room.

...

...

And he thought LEO was dead when she woke up.]

Re: [Acion]

[nightraysewerat]

Would you like to play too?

[Here Vincent holds out the scissors, smiling.]

[snapekillsedgar.livejournal.com]

Wh- What do you think you're doing?!

[He does reach out to snatch away the scissors, but to get them the HELL away from his brother.]

[knightofchanges]

[laughing.]

If she finds out that you were the one who did it? I'd say a week, maybe a month if you know how to run and hide.

[nightraysewerat]

Oh, she'll know.

[He laughs, shakes his head.]

I suppose you'd say I'm a little known for stunts like these.

[knightofchanges]

A fan of cutting things up, you mean?

[componere.livejournal.com]

Isn't that Miss Vanessa?

[nightraysewerat]

She's pretty distinctive, isn't she?

[Vincent pans the Dreamberry, showing her again, quickly.]

Doesn't she just look so nice and peaceful when she sleeps?

[componere.livejournal.com]

You seem to have an affinity for the weak, Mister Vincent, if I do say so myself.

[disruptstatice]

...you're not allowed to comment on my behaviour anymore.

[nightraysewerat]

And why is that?

[disruptstatice]

That should be obvious.
