Sure it was the bad part of town. Vanitas wasn't the least bit worried about it. He strolled with no purpose through the slums, a wide smirk on his face. His alarming yellow eyes tended to ward people off anyways, but Vanitas was a scrappy little punk. If someone tried to jump him, he would make them regret it. He was almost eager for some sort of confrontation. He had been so bored as of late, especially since his last little con he pulled on the police force no less, had ended rather lackluster, so he took it out on his little puppet by letting him sleep. Permanently.

Yes, it was the seedier area but Moses would walk anywhere at night, even the bad side of town, in order to escape his nightmares. He was scared of himself half the time and would prefer to just walk every night rather than sleep, just to escape the dreams. He knew he couldn't if he wanted to keep his job, but he had to do something. Moses brushed his long black hair out of his face and continued walking, almost bumping into someone. "Sorry man" he muttered before continuing on his way.

Vanitas smirked. It seemed he had found just what he was looking for after all. His hand shot out immediately, grabbing the other man none too gently and yanking him back. His hand squeezed the man's bicep. His golden eyes flashed with unrestrained anticipation. Now to see just how far he could push this guy before it came to blows or some goodie goodie passerby tried to stop them. Or police sirens, really whatever came first at this point. "Now that's not how you apologize to someone," he mocked. "Say it like you mean it."

Moses yelped as he was suddenly grabbed and pulled back to the man he had almost bumped into. He stared into the eyes before scowling, his eyes flashing black for a moment. He tried yanking his arm out of the grip and continued scowling at the other man. “I already apologized” he snapped. “So let me just continue on my way. There was no harm meant, everything should be fine” it was at night, he was in the wrong part of town, and had just bumped into one of the freaks that roamed at night. Things were not looking up for Moses.

Vanitas chuckled, oh, so he ran into one of his kind then. All the better. He gave the man a shove. "Yeah well you've hurt my feelings," he said, though it was the farthest thing from the truth. The sarcasm was dripping from his tone. It took a lot to get under Vanitas' skin and it was mostly just people pretending to be better than what they were. Plus, if a little thing like being bumped into hurt Vanitas' feelings, he was getting soft.

Moses had to restrain himself from shoving back but it was just so hard to do so. He wanted to grab this other person by the throat and not let go until he stopped breathing. Of course, that's probably not what would happen and Moses had to keep in mind that this was probably a more powerful being than a simple half-demon and would probably thrash Moses in a second if Moses tried anything. So Moses just stumbled back and clenched his jaw. "I highly doubt I hurt your feelings" He waved the other off and turned once again to try and walk away.

"You are such a pansy!" Vanitas laughed when Moses tried to make his escape before anything came of their 'confrontation' if it could be called that because really this was all so onesided. He just knew the other was just itching to try and knock his teeth out. If some guy tried the same thing with him, Vanitas would have already finished him off before he could finish that sentence. "You're really just going to sit there and take this? Where do they make guys like you?"

Moses stopped and turned around slowly. His eyes were pitch black and his hands were clenched so tightly they were trembling. "I'm trying not to do anything I'd regret" he snarled, lips curling in anger and disgust. "I don't want to dirty my hands with filth like you. But if you insist on continuing to push me, so be it" he ran back to Vanitas and swung his fist into the general direction of the demon's ribs.

"Now that's more like it!" Vanitas all but cheered in victory. It seemed he got his fight after all. Now to egg this guy on some more. And really, he knew it was too easy but he just adored coaxing someone into giving in to the base natures, particularly for his like kin. He was grinning wildly, even when he let the hit land but it hardly hurt, sure it made him suck in a breath but this wasn't enough to break skin or bash in bones. No, he needed more than that. "Is that all you've got?"

Moses felt immediately bad that he had given into his anger and his the guy, especially since the guy was obviously enjoying it. Even when Moses hit him he was practically laughing like it didn't hurt. It kind of freaked Moses out, to be honest. He backed up a few steps. "Yea ,it's all I got" he stated. It was all he wanted to give, to be honest. It brought back the dreams vividly and that frankly terrified him.

"Oh please," Vanitas scoffed since it seemed the fight went right out of this guy like water on flames. Talk about a let down. Vanitas had gotten so excited at the prospect of throwing down against another demon only for his competition to back out when the getting got good. Vanitas just had to wait a little longer, get him riled up again. "Admit it, you liked hitting me. You want to tear me to pieces. Go on, say it."

"I...." Yes, Moses had enjoyed punching this guy. He had liked it a lot. But he couldn't just give into his darker nature. What would his mother say? She probably wouldn't be happy he was fighting some random person in the streets at night in a bad part of town. Moses took a deep breath. "I don't want to fight you. I just want to go back to my apartment and forget about this"

"Don't want to fight? Yeah right." Vanitas snorted. Fine. If that's the way this guy wanted to play it, Vanitas would take the low ground on this, not like he had morals to worry about shattering anyways. "You're just itching for a good fight. If not with me, you'll find someone... Maybe some girl walking down the streets alone? Or a kid that got away from mommy and daddy? The elderly are always fun to push around. They get so uppity but one good hit and they cower like the rest of them."

Moses flared again .The guy was playing on his worst fears. "I wouldn't do that!" he snarled. But would he? Doubt swirled in his stomach and made him feel slightly ill. "I don't want to hurt anybody!" But he did. Oh yes he really did. Maybe...maybe this once it wouldn't be so bad? Moses slapped the other demon full in the face as hard as he could and smiled sadistically. Oh yea, that had felt great. He swung his fist again, aiming for the neck.

"Wouldn't. Shouldn't. Really? Who's going to stop you?" Vanitas asked. "You've hit me." Twice now (if he wanted to count a slap of all things as being hit). The third time Vanitas caught the punch in his own hand. He squeezed the man's fist within his own. He leaned in, close so that the man had to look at him, and see the red mark he had left on his face. "You don't want to fight, you said. You don't want to hurt anyone, you said. Awful hypocritical of you, don't you think? But doesn't the rush just feel so good? You gonna make me bleed next?"
