I don't know, I feel like Lea and Axel are supposed to be the same person, because Axel (and the rest of Org XIII except for Roxas) awoke as nobodies with their old memories intact, thus didn't form a "new" identity and basically didn't become a new person like Roxas did. So I don't think SE will really give him any crisis :l
TRUE DARKNESS
(Imagine it in her voice. If you don't know it, go listen. Cloud of Darkness is bae. She's evil and perfectly so and has the perfect sexy dark voice. she's the fem!vanitas i need but don't deserve)
Hm yeah, that would probably work as well, as long as it's not done in the same way as with Aranea. Like, she was evil before, but she never actually heavily harmed anyone in the group, so it's still a different thing to tackle than with Vanitas.
I'd be in for him deciding it's not worth being a seeker and thus deciding to switch sides.
(Ok small input here, you remember he feels some of what Ventus feels, right? Would love to see some interaction regarding that in case he does somehow switch sides. And I know that Ventus has no reason to trust him, but it'd be nice to see the cinnamon roll slowly build up some sort of trust after Vanitas didn't shoot fifteen unversed in his face out of boredom for the first time :^)).
(It's so sad because I don't expect SE to give Vanitas so much spotlight but one can hope.)
I CAN ALREADY HEAR MYSELF SCREAMING.
Actually I'll already scream when I finally hold the game in my hands. Can you imagine it??? Less than a year now, most likely. DAFUQ.
Oh true, that would work as well, but I'd really like it. ANYTHING THAT GIVES THE BAE MORE PURPOSE COME ON SE.
DON'T GIVE US THAT ORCHESTRA FOR NOTHING.
YOU KNOW WE'RE LUSTING FOR VANITAS.
IT'S 2 DAMN OBVIOUS.
