[ Vanitas' designated date from the auction is Amber, and while he can't say he's having a bad time, there are moments in which he can be caught without her around the ship.
Sampling the wine is something he's not opposed to, and he may or may not be tipsy when someone approaches. He can also be found at the buffet, squinting at a dessert dish...that looks like Tarte Tatin?? Wow, he's going to scrutinize the hell out of it. It'd better be good. ]
chocolates.
[ He's not a fan of chocolate, especially if it's too sweet. He's got zero idea about the bonus effects, too, but while he's out in town square, he idly pops a piece into his mouth.
He grimaces a bit. Too sweet, too sweet – but he starts to realize something was terribly wrong with it when he sees the next person and instinctively approaches. And then, without warning, he will pick them up bridal style. (Effort will vary depending on the individual.)
He blinks down at whoever he's just scooped up. ]
...Huh?
[ And then he'll promptly drop them. Oops. ]
wildcard.
[ I am down for anything! Tasks, Bingo, etc.! ]

[ Indoor voices, Vani. He also realizes his mistake and quickly sinks lower into his mud bath. ]
...Asking for a friend.
no subject
[ Vanitas, please. It's so obvious that you aren't??? ]
But you get butterflies in your stomach, or just the thought of seeing them is exciting. [ A pause. ] Touching them is exciting too, even if it's just holding their hand.
no subject
[ Wow, why won't you buy his obvious lie, Gaku?? ]
It feels like you're being rewritten from the inside out! The thought of being close to them is so strange and mortifying, it makes me sick. And when all you can think of is them, it's – it's so distracting!
[ ... ]
Or, so I've heard. I. Wouldn't know.
no subject
[ There's no heat behind his words, at least, but he does affix Vanitas with a Look. ]
So, who do you like?
no subject
[ One-Hit KO: Being perceived. ]
Someone from the auction.
[ don't worry about it ]
no subject
Most of the island was at the auction. [ A pause. ] Is it Amber?
no subject
[ And there's no indication that he's lying, here! ]
no subject
Then tell me. I'm not going through every single person that put in an application.
no subject
[ Which makes him feel some kind of way, in all honesty. But for Amb's sake, he'll just come out and say it: ]
He went through all the trouble to make a dramatic appeal for his friend's application, anyway.
no subject
[ Huh. A dramatic appeal? There were only two of those, and one was definitely more dramatic than the other. ]
He Xuan?
no subject
AETHER! It's Aether, okay?!
no subject
[ Huh. Okay. Let him recalibrate. ]
That makes more sense.
no subject
[ this whole convo is so stupid i'm crying ]
no subject
[ Unless Vanitas happens to be extremely violent and insane? ]
Aether is nice, though. Good luck.
no subject
...
[ He's blushing as he sinks further into the bath. He doesn't know what to say to that, because if Aether doesn't feel the same way, then it'll no longer concern him. That's what he'll tell himself so he doesn't get hurt. ]
I'll figure it out.
no subject
[ That’s really all there is to it, honestly. ]
Enjoy the date you have today.
no subject
[ said moments before disaster
But yeah. You're a real one, Gaku. ]
