@sorsrenuo ❝ without me? i thought we were partners. ❞ - Vanitas
“We are partners. I just had business to attend to with that unbearable woman and Noé that didn’t require additional assistance.” A sigh escapes from the doctor’s mouth as he finishes speaking; he couldn’t entirely tell if Maia was upset with him or getting on his case to make a big deal for fun or whatever, but whatever the answer, it was something he didn’t think her assistance necessary.
In annoyance, Vanitas twirls an empty vial between gloved fingers.
“It was more so doing something in exchange for a future favor. It doesn’t entirely concern you right now - so, as partners, I believe it only fair that I ask that you trust me in saying it’s nothing that you won’t find out about anyway.” He had been well aware that they were getting ready to depart to London, so his small trip to Noé & Dominique served as a temporary farewell to the two of them as well. On top of that, he was able to get Dominique to look into shipping off materials to an empty warehouse that he would later collect somewhere along the district of London they were arriving at.
“..I’d feel a bit bad if I flat out don’t tell you at least something about it - especially when you look at me with that pout. I was just requesting Dominique to stick her neck out a bit and get me some materials, and in exchange I helped her and Noé with another Malnomen case. It was relatively small but needed to be handled quickly.”
