if vanxx had absolutely no responsibilities. if there was nothing left to fight for and he could do anything he wanted without guilt and just enjoy his life for its most bare necessities. what would he do

SNFF..... for the first little while I think he would not know what to do with himself and be a little lost at sea. defining himself with busy hands and responsibility all his life, what do you do without it? I think first and foremost would be time, ACTUAL time, with the scions and raubahn and be people instead of figures defined by what's on their shoulders. what a concept! he isn't a man of extravagant taste and it's the little things he would treasure - coffee, indulgence of sharlayan libraries, restoring old and forgotten little oddities and trinkets, esp of the mechanical variety (he has a particular fondness for clockwork and tiny automata; things that need a delicate hand), cooking.

cooking!! he would devour metaphorically and literally recipes from the world over just to try them and experiment; his main love language is food and sharing it and he would adore rifling through dogeared recipe books to try the next thing he's never made or tried. food was largely a necessity of basic staples for much of his early life, so interesting and unique dishes feel like an absolute indulgence while not too much of one because it's food and it still has a purpose no matter its bells and whistles.

he'd also visit his momma a lot :') maybe momma would insist on visiting the scions sometime bc I'm losing it imagining that interaction FHSKFHDJDL
