[ A shifting of shadows catches the corner of his eyes and Ventus finds himself glancing up and blinking at a silhouette in one of the windows. It's hard to make out with what little light there is, but it looks like a... cat? Something feline-shaped lit by a very dim light either way. As Ventus tries to squint at it, he hears movement from behind the door that redirects his attention back to it, tentatively hopeful that the stranger's companions are home and he can be safely delivered so that Ventus can go back to searching before exhaustion really gets the better of him.
As the door is pushed open, there's a split-second of relief — a hope realized — until he sees who comes walking out. For the second time that day (night?) his other half's presence catches him by surprise entirely. ]
Vanitas? What are you— [ doing here? The words die out much in the same way that Vanitas' snap does as his other half falters and utters a name with what must be recognition of the form on his back. ] You know him?
[ Ventus finds himself immediately puzzled for various reasons, but one that stands out is Vanitas' expression. It's such a strange thing to see him go pale like that. Ventus has only ever seen something similar to it on his other's face when the x-Blade was shattered. Could it be that he's... worried?
He promptly remembers what he was supposed to say. ]
Don't worry, he's just asleep. He asked me to bring him here.
