“Farmer’s market,” Vien answered as he got into the car and buckled in
“Farmer’s market,” Vien answered as he got into the car and buckled in
"Alrighty then." He started the car and began driving.
Vien tapped his fingers absently on his knee as he stared out the window
It was too awkward in that car to exist, as they stopped at a light.
Vien, feeling anxious in the silence, reached over and turned on the radio
Vin glanced over and started driving again. "So what else should we get? I've never had lava cakes before."
“Well, we’ll need chocolate of course. And dishes for the cakes. But if you want we can just run back to my house since I already have the ingredients there.”
"Yeah, but what about fresh eggplant? We'll just stop by the market."
“Okay, we can get eggplant and then go to my place,” Vien said with a shrug
"Okay." They arrive at the market and buy more than just eggplant, and get back into the car laden with caramels, fresh fruits, veggies and other yummy desserts.
Vien felt a little bad for having Vin buy all the desserts, but he also was very happy they did. "My house next?" he asked as he got into the car
"Yeah, I suppose." Vin sounded happier as he popped a caramel in his mouth and started the car.
Vien reached over, grabbing a caramel and eating it as well as they drove
"Mmm, these are good," Vin said thickly as he crossed into a crossroad.
(I'm going to bed. Night!)
(night)
Vien nodded in agreement before reaching over and popping another in his mouth. "At my old house we used to go to farmers' markets all the time. My siblings and I were always the ones to run after the sweets."
"Are you and your siblings still associated? Like, do you guys still talk?" He grabbed a small stick of chocolate.
"Occasionally I try to use a Ouija board," Vien said as if it was something he said often before grabbing himself a piece of chocolate
"That's a fake. I met a Spirit and it wasn't nearly as impressive as you'd think." He gave him a side glance. "I can see ET stuff cuz my demon-y-ness." He popped a bit of the chocolate in his mouth at a light.
"What I mean is that my siblings are dead. Since I was about fourteen, actually," Vien said before grabbing a small handful of caramels and eating them
"O-h. Sorry." Vin lapsed into silence, cursing his own stupidity. "Sorry… that was tactless and stupid."
"Trust me, that was elegant compared to the bonehead I used to live with. He used to ask me whether or not I could summon my dead family members to fight with," Vien scoffed
Vin rolled his eyes. "Well, if you actually wanted to, I could show you. I think I've done it enough to be able to do it faultlessly…" He chewed the chocolate thoughtfully as he drove.
"Don't bother. I'm unable to communicate with my family due to my contract," Vien said before grabbing another chocolate and eating it
"Contract?" Vin instantly regretted wondering. Maybe Vien wanted a line between them; maybe that was the line.
"You remember how I mentioned that I work a lot with demons?" Vien asked. "Well, around the time my family died, I made a contract. Magic in exchange for being employed by a powerful creature." As he spoke the tattoo on the back of his neck began to glow a cool blue, almost like a warning
