The worst-case scenario|| Cast study of Vanitas fanfic

"Noè will you please hurry up, your gonna make us lateeeee"

 Vanitas whined at the other from the other side of their shared hotel room. He sighed as he finished the last button on his vest. He stood there with his hand on his hip waiting for Noè to appear, which he did. 

Noè stood there in the dim lighting of the room, wearing a purple button-up shirt with a white corset vest and black slacks and boots. He was still slipping on his white gloves as he stepped into the room, a soft smile on his face. "Hah sorry, I didn't mean to take so long" he chuckled softly as he looked at the Vanitas, dressed in a white button-up with a blue vest with black lace on it, a navy blue bow, and white dress pants. 

"You took long enough jeez, you know we can't be late to us" Vanitas swatted his hand as he walked up to Noè, looking up with a sheepish grin and a hand on the others' shoulder. "Now, let's go show them what a real ball looks like." He let out a snarky chuckle as he walked past Noè, sliding his hand off Noè's shoulder slowly. Noè quickly followed behind after waving goodbye to Murr.

They walked out of the hotel, Noè stopped for a moment to look up at the giant shining moon beaming down on them in awe. Vanitas turned back to look at the other, noticing he stopped walking, a soft grin slowly growing on his face, which he hid immediately once he realized he was smiling. "Noè you'll have time to stare off in space once we're done with the task at hand". Noè quickly turned at looked at Vanitas, his eyes still filled with the awe he had while looking at the moon. "Of course, I'm sorry" Noè stood there in silence for a moment. "Actually what is the task? You just threw clothes at me and told me to get dressed....". Vanitas scoffed as we stomped towards Noè, grabbing him and dragging him along as he explained. "Ugh, I got intel that there would be an attack at this fancy ball". "Ok that's understandable but um, how are we getting in if it's a fancy ball?" Noè looked at the other in confusion as he was being dragged. "Lucky for us we don't need to break-in, I simply asked Jeanne to take us with her. Which yep that's her now!"

Vanitas stopped, letting Noè stand up properly as a white horse-drawn carriage came towards them. "Why must Jeanne be involved" Noè sighed out as he watched Vanitas' usually snarky and catty demeanor change to be more excited like a puppy. 

The carriage was hauled in front of the boys as the door opened. Jeanne sat on the far left side, wearing a pink and white silk round gown with a white bonnet that had neat pink bows. She smiled at them which quickly faded when Vanitas sat next to her. "Oh mademoiselle, you look stunning. Truly a work of art" Vanitas blabbed about how pretty she was while grabbing onto her hand and leaning towards her. Jeanne only pulled her hand away and yelled at Vanitas, soft blush sprinkled across her face.  Noè who seated himself in front of Vanitas, only looked away to ignore the events occurring in front of him. He pretended they weren't happening, and he was also pretending he didn't wish it was him. 

The carriage began to move again towards its destination, but  Noè was already wishing this whole thing could be over. 

Vanitas laughed and held Jeanne's face as he only leaned in closer to her, their faces inches apart.  He had a look in his eyes that looked hungry for something, peering deep into her. Jeanne's face was flushed and she only screamed and pushed Vanitas away, causing the carriage to shake and jostle around the passengers. 

Noè only became more irritated but he held his tongue. He knew it wasn't his place to say anything about Jeannes and Vanita's relationship, considering Vanita wasn't even a friend of his. They were only accomplices so Noè could evaluate  The Book of Vanitas. But something about seeing the human flirt with someone else made his blood boil. 

He held his tongue.
