Vane knows the person before him is slimier than an eel and almost exactly like a scurrying rat trying to cover up any trails before they can form. [color=0BE9F3]"You know,"[/color] he began. It felt like the calm before a storm. [color=0BE9F3]"I really don't think you're a bad guy even with the skeevy stuff you're setting up. Makes me wonder how you got to where you are."[/color] 

He was naturally going to accept the offer, yet there was something else. Something additional that he didn't expect Virgil to add that triggered a seed of chaos that already existed within Vane's heart. Keith definitely influenced him much more than he thought. 

Or was it a quality he had from the very beginning?

[color=0BE9F3]"I used to be a quiet, calm kid who preferred to keep to themselves. That part of me broke down to reveal something else, you get me? Almost makes me wonder if something similar happened to you. A brat that didn't know what they wanted to do and..."[/color] He shook his head and stopped before he spoke any further. He scratched the back of his head in a confused manner.

Vane was desperately trying to hold something back. He shook the other boy's hand with a tight grip.

[color=0BE9F3]"Anyways, I'll take you up on that offer. Just to be sure, you said I could fight [I]anyone[/I] and not worry? Does that mean I can fight you and everyone else here?"[/color] Vane tilted his head with a simple smile right as he said something that was a little bit ridiculous.
