"I dunno, you tell me." The croc remarked, crossing his arms over his chest. It seems as if he doesn't remember how he managed to do that.

"HOW DO YOU KNOW THAT?!" Vector exclaimed, taken aback by this.

"Well, you said you could read my thoughts. Apparently." Shrug—

Suddenly wakes up— "Huh? I've just been sleeping this whole time."

Man I wish Vanilla would sit on my— (VECTOR NO)

- temp pinned -

"Vanilla is the only woman I need in my DMs!"

He sure is. It'll take a LOT for him to be woken up.

Snoring VERY loudly. So loudly, in fact, the whole TL could hear it.

"Whose idea was this?"

Vector wasn't focused because she was speaking way too fast for him, looking down to see his hand was taken by her. "Woah woah, slow down a bit, please... I'm Vector. How do I get home?"

"Uhhhh... hi." Where was he? This certainly wasn't familiar surroundings.

Throws a hard punch straight at his stomach—

"Who are these random girls I've seen walkin' around here lately? They definitely ain't from round here, that's for sure."

"No she isn't."

"WHA—?!" Is slammed onto the floor, rolling around in pain. "OH! MY BACK!"

"I DON'T FOLD EASILY!"

Meanwhile, Vector's eyes were fixated on Vanilla as she leaned against his arm. He really could not get over how beautiful she looks. Soon enough, the sun had completely set, and the stars were now visible in the sky. "Wow..." Was all the croc could muster, in awe of how bright the stars were —

Vector nodded along, thinking about where to take Vanilla dancing. Would a slow dance suffice? Or was she more into tango or salsa? The next port of call, however... "How does a hotel sound for the night? Or would you rather come back here?"

"I'm..." Vector began to speak, but then froze. This always happened every time he saw Vanilla. Clearing his throat, the croc tried again. "I'm a bit tired and stressed out right now. You know, work and everything..."

"Gaia! Where did you come from? You sure gave me a heart attack... phew." Vector leaned back and put a hand on his chest, waiting for his heart rate to slow down.

As Vanilla took his arm, Vector proceeded to set them on their way, taking a slow walk to the restaurant they were frequenting. The glow of the sunset was currently reflecting off of the croc's face, keeping his gaze forward. "It sure is a beautiful evening for it, right?"

Vector froze in place once he saw Vanilla. She is the only person that matters to him in this moment, he can't believe how beautiful she looks. A silence followed as the croc struggled to get the words out, he was that stunned. Eventually, he did speak, clearing his throat to do so. "Yeah. —

(Starter for @motherlyflavour.bsky.social) And so, Valentines Day had arrived! Vector was admittedly quite nervous on the inside despite his confident demeanour a few days ago, and as the croc approached Vanilla's home with a fresh bouquet of roses in his hand, he knocked on the door and took —

Vector took another sip of his tea before quietly setting the cup down again so that he didn't disturb Vanilla. Soon enough, he closed his eyes, and didn't move for some time after as his arm remained draped around her. Has he fallen asleep?

Vector continue to enjoy the silence, looking over to see Vanilla leaning up against him some more, setting the cup down on the table, a arm reaching out to gently wrap around her shoulders. This was perfect. Nothing could disturb them now.

what?? no! why would someone feel like doing that?!

"This is nice..." Vector said quietly, simply taking his time to enjoy the tranquil atmosphere. A perfect scenario, just him and Vanilla embracing each other's company.

If you even do as much as try to hold her hand, I swear to Gaia I will turn you into Swiss cheese.

"Not at all~." Vector replied, a small blush forming as Vanilla leaned against him, gently sipping his hot beverage.

"Well, when I'm in the company of such a beautiful woman, I need to be perfect~." Vector retorted with a flirtatious smirk, sitting down on the couch and taking the cup that was offered to him. "Thank you very much."

Scourge is talking to Vanilla?

Loudly snoozing at his desk. Again.

"You know I'd love some, Vanilla~." Vector said, that low tone remaining as he nonchalantly followed her into the kitchen.

A soft chuckle escaped the croc's mouth as Vanilla kissed his cheek, flashing her a quick wink in return.

"Perfect~." Vector replied, his smile turning into a smirk, partly to mask the nerves, but also to show Vanilla that she was the only one that mattered to him.

//Vector trying to be confident around Vanilla but on the inside he's absolutely terrified—

As Vector tried to keep his blush under control, he began to talk again, in a noticeably lower tone than usual. "Perfect. I was thinking... a restaurant, and then maybe... a nice hotel, with the most comfortable beds you can find. How does that sound~?"

"What time would be best for you?" Vector asked, a slight tinge of red on his cheeks as Vanilla leaned in, now eye to eye with the woman of his dreams.
