[Vincent wakes to a room that's been fully redecorated into, as his AU so cheerfully described it, a 'palace of love.' The walls are pastel pink, and along with a wide array of flowers, there are all sorts of sensual things placed strategically around. He groans upon recalling the past week. Then he pulls his hair out of the ponytail as he looks around a room that would put the Honeybee Inn to shame.]

[As he opens his journal, there's a good view of his lovely new surroundings. Then his scowling face comes into the picture.]

My behavior last week was inexcusable, although the Malnosso are technically at fault.

Regardless, to anyone I spoke with... I apologize.

[Vincent then starts the process of de-beautifying his room, taking away some of the tackier ...items... that he ended up having there. He can be seen wandering to and from his place as he seeks to strip away the memories of his AU self. He's basically throwing all the things into a big pile far enough from his building, for Galian to burn when he's ready.]

[What will vincent hear first thing in the morning?

The best evil 'he he he' laugh Yuffie can manage in the morning.]

[chaotic-dirge.livejournal.com]

[There's a Serious Business edge of warning to his tone.]

Yuffie...

[roseof-wutai.livejournal.com]

[No, sorry, she is not threatened. :|]

You were adorable!

[chaotic-dirge.livejournal.com]

[Have a classic old times Vincent Glare. Bet you missed that, huh?]

Far from it.

[roseof-wutai.livejournal.com]

[Why yes, actually, she did!]

Oooh, I think you were though! I bet a lot of other..ladies would agree.

[esper-flight.livejournal.com]

...it's okay. It wasn't your fault.

[Voice]

[chaotic-dirge.livejournal.com]

...I still owe you an apology. That never should have happened.

[Voice]

[esper-flight.livejournal.com]

It was strange, but...nice in a way. I know you were being a flirt, but you were pretty friendly, too.

...not that you've ever been mean to me.

[Voice]

[chaotic-dirge.livejournal.com]

[...Who would ever want to be mean to Terra?]

I should have held more respect for personal boundaries. It's the least anyone deserves.

[It didn't get through someone's mind that Vincent is apologetic. Oops.]

If I ever see you near Rydia again, I'll kill you.

[Voice]

[chaotic-dirge.livejournal.com]

My actions were beyond my control. It won't happen again.

[dragoon-pride.livejournal.com]

You still should have thought before you targeted someone who's already taken.

[Voice]

[chaotic-dirge.livejournal.com]

[...right. Vincent is full of guilt and self-loathing, but even HE thinks Kain is unreasonable.]

How would I have known that?

[Voice]

[unseenspy.livejournal.com]

So you've finally come to your senses? I hope this means everyone else has as well.

[Voice]

[chaotic-dirge.livejournal.com]

The experiment... appears to have run its course.

[Voice]

[unseenspy.livejournal.com]

That's good to hear. I'm certainly glad to see you back to normal. Flirting with women just didn't suit you.

[Voice]

[chaotic-dirge.livejournal.com]

[Doesn't he know it. :| It's a dishonor to Lucrecia, as well.]

Nor would I ever behave in such a way, in my right mind. This was a troubling experiment, to so fully alter memories and personalities...

[Ted stumbles onto that pile by accident while going in and out of the village, though it baffles him how he could have ever missed such a thing before. What the...]

[chaotic-dirge.livejournal.com]

[And here comes Vincent, carrying another bunch of items to add to his pile of junk. Nothing strange here, just a man making a bonfire out of sexy things.]

[He pauses upon noticing Ted nearby. For a moment, he can only stare, feeling an eerie sense of deja vu. In fact, he resembles someone he'd recently met... but that can't possibly be right. He can only hope.]

...Have we met?

[Action]

[300yrswandering.livejournal.com]

[The moment Ted turned to look at him, he froze, eyes widening and face paling. Oh of all the...] Y-You...

[Action]

[chaotic-dirge.livejournal.com]

[And the moment of truth is upon Vincent as the resemblance to the girl version of Ted strikes him fully. If there was ever a time he'd like to crawl and hide in a coffin, it's now.]

No... it cannot be...

[galddigger.livejournal.com]

[Hi Vincent. One of the few girls who actually flirted back is here to make you feel all better! Or maybe not, considering she's like, only fourteen.]

You were a little handsy! But you were a great date, so it's all good! ♥

[chaotic-dirge.livejournal.com]

[He certainly remembers Anise, although... he remembers her as much older.]

My behavior was still inappropriate. I apologize.

[galddigger.livejournal.com]

Don't apologize! We still haven't gone on that picnic together, yet!

[chaotic-dirge.livejournal.com]

You have no obligation, now that the experiment is over.
