Vichard's posts

@Poetictorment:
"Hmm.. This is a good set of items, Violet will surely be pleased."
Mich wanders over to your pile of supplies and produces a series of beeps and boops.
"But Mich is right, I can't seem to find your name on these..."

Found Items

Stepping outside the café for a breath of fresh air, you notice Vichard glaring intensely at a patch of wildflowers. Mich, his assistant robot-friend, hovers beside him, speaking in a series of beeps and boops that you can't understand.

”No Mich, of course that couldn't be it! This shade of purple couldn't possibly be the one that Violet is looking for!”
Mich seems to let out a series of deflated beeps and boops.

You approach the two to ask what could be troubling them.
"It's none of your business, but I'll explain if you're so invested," Vichard huffs. "Violet specifically entrusted me to help her gather various supplies that she needs at the café. Of course I couldn't possibly let her down! If I can find everything she's looking for, then surely--"

Vichard suddenly stops speaking, clearly distracted by something in the distance behind you. You turn to see Vregory walking towards the café, purple wildflowers in hand and rat-friend Eugene on his shoulder. Zooming right past you, Vichard storms off towards his brother.

"YOU! What are you going to do with those?!"

"Ohhh is Vichard, is good to see you." Vregory thinks for a little while. "Hmm... is for Violet."

Vichard groans in exasperation.
"No! Only I was supposed to be helping her, how could she ask YOU to--"

"Ohhh Vichard is helping too? What a good friend... Did Violet promise you coff--" Eugene squeaks at Vregory. "... Café goodies too?"

Vichard scowls at him. Vregory turns to you with a smile on his face.
"Are you helping too?"

As a child, Vichard believed he could get more gifts if he bribed Panthalassa with milk and cookies.

Vichard cried and is still salty over it.

From the dumpster behind a local bakery, Vregory popped up with an excited smile. Clutched in his hand was a beautifully intact holiday cookie, his eyes sparkling with excitement. However, before he could even bring it to his mouth, he felt it suddenly torn from his hand.

He blinked, looking up to see Mich, Vichard's loyal robot companion, beeping tauntingly as he flew out of reach with his cookie. As Vreg watched in confusion, Vichard’s voice began to play out of the drone’s speakers.

“Ah, feeling let down? Disappointed? Do you finally grasp how it feels?!”

Hearing the familiar voice, Vreg instantly smiled, “Oh did you wanna share? Is good. Fresh.”

“GEH!” Vichard huffed, “It’s NOT fresh, I just watched you pull it out of a dumpster you dimwit! And NO I don’t want to share, I don’t want to eat it at all! I just want you to feel what it’s like! To have all your hopes and dreams crushed! Shattered! DESTROYED! All over a stolen treat!”

“Humm…” Vreg tilted his head, not seeming to understand. This only served to irritate his brother more.

“DO YOU REALLY NOT REMEMBER?!”



Within the walls of the King family’s grand manor, a small boy was plotting. Cautiously, he peeked his head out of the kitchen door, his messy mop of white hair bouncing as his bright blue eyes darted back and forth. Relieved to see that all was clear, he let out a victorious giggle before dashing out into the hallway.

Clutched tightly in his hands was a tray of chocolate chip cookies, freshly baked by one of the finest chefs in all of the Electric Realm. Accompanying it was a tall glass of cold milk, swaying and threatening to topple over at any moment.

Luckily, the young Vichard King safely reached his destination as he carefully placed the tray on top of a small end table. He had carefully surveyed this house for weeks, and decided this was the perfect spot. Optimal location, low foot traffic, and, most importantly, he was actually able to reach it.

He took a moment to admire his work proudly, before his eyes widened in horror, “Oh no! I forgot the note!” He nearly stumbled over his own feet as he turned to run off, scrambling into another room.

Just as he disappeared, his older brother stepped into the hallway, dressed cozily in the holiday sweater his nanny had picked out for him. Raising his nose to the air, he sniffed, and was immediately drawn towards the sweet scent. A lazy smile spread across his face as he gazed upon the tempting cookies, reaching out to take one, “A holiday treat…”

But then one became two.

And two became three.

And soon all but one of the cookies had been eaten. As Vregory brought the last cookie towards his mouth, a shrill shriek broke his daze. Vichard stood before him, cheeks inflated and red as his eyes welled up, his tiny fists clenched and shaking. Vregory smiled happily to see his brother, holding out the cookie towards him instead, “I found goodies, you want one?”

“MEAN!” Vichard balked, the tears immediately flowing from his eyes as he began bawling, “Those weren’t for you, you ruined it! How could you?!”

Vregory blinked in confusion, troubled to see him crying, “Did I do bad?”

“You are bad! Jerk!” Vichard sobbed, before tossing his note to the floor and stomping on it, “You ruined Solstice! Now my wish will never come true!”

“Wish?” Confused, Vregory tilted his head, “What did you wish for can I help?”

Huffing and fully tantruming now, Vichard only managed to blurt, “I wish you’d stop being a stupid butthead! HMPH!” Before turning to run away, continuing to sob as he tried to find a place to sulk.

Feeling bad, Vregory was about to chase after him, but stopped as his foot kicked the crumpled note his brother had abandoned. Kneeling down, he picked it up, squinting as he tried to read the crudely written note:

“Dear Panfa Panthel Panthalassa,

Greetings! How are you? I am well.
My parents are always too busy to spend Solstice with me, and it’s lonely.
So! I think I deserve more gifts this year!
You have powers so you can do that right?
I left you milk and cookies for payment.

Thanks
Vichard King

P.S. Don’t tell Vregory I said I was lonely or he’ll feel sad. I don’t want him sad.”

“Humm…” Vregory sounded with a frown, as he pondered over the note. Perhaps there was a way to make his Solstice wish come true...

QUESTION: How does it feel to be nearby your brother? Like, you're both here it must be nice right, you can hang out.

@Goblin: Vichard's eyebrows furrow from the question, "Nice? What's nice about being around that imbecile? GEH just being around him makes my blood boil!" He clenches his fists, stomping his foot in annoyance, "I'm not here to "HANG OUT", I'm here to get my vengeance! I want to cower at my superior power and intelligence, and concede that I, Vichard King, am the FAR better heir! If he'd just stop [b]digging in the garbage for five minutes maybe he would notice!"

Looking over to his brother, on cue, Vregory could be seen in the background digging through the backstage garbage can. Vichard's cheeks puff up, "SEE? RIDICULOUS!"

"GEH! N-No way! I'm not selling Mich! He's mine! I-I mean... If I need an updated model I could get one easily! Yeah! It's just... Why bother right? It's more convenient to keep him around. I'm not attached or anything, of course. I'm above such trivial things." Vichard laughs nervously before huffing.

"And why would you waste your time on that jerk? TCH..."
