He still felt that bit of discomfort, especially when he recalled some of the more terrible things Asch had said to and about Luke, but considering that he had been willing to sacrifice himself in the end, Guy knew he couldn't hold as much of a grudge.
Not that Asch's attitude was ever going to go away, and if Luke really was here again, Guy knew that seeing the two interact would set him off. But for now, he could just explain.
"Probably not. It's hard to tell what happens to them, but apparently some people were brainwashed into thinking they really were crazy and then they actually go on to live here. Oh, right, this isn't Auldrant. We're on a plant called Earth," he explained. That would probably be harder for Asch to swallow, but he'd come to realize it was true eventually.

"The same way everyone else did. I just woke up here without warning. I went to sleep one night and then here I was." He wasn't sure if the God-General had been wondering if he had died as well, but in case he was, he had just gone ahead and cleared that up.
Unfortunately, there were all sorts of other confusing details that he still felt obligated to let Asch know about. "Also, chances are that we're from different time periods," he explained. "I know that sounds impossible, but I've seen enough of examples of it that there's no point in denying it."
He was doing his best to avoid mentioning Asch's death, just because it didn't seem like something that he should bring up like it was nothing, but maybe eventually he would be able to explain (again) that Asch had been dead for about a year in his time period. Not that it really mattered now, since the God-General was back in one way or another, but it might get confusing in the future.

"Well, yeah, but... to give you an idea, for me a year has passed since your death, but Anise only remembers up to her duel with Arietta," he explained. He wasn't sure how close Asch had been to Arietta, but he hoped that he didn't stir up any feelings by mentioning the girl. He had just needed to give an example.
Now, the question was whether or not he mentioned that Luke had also been here at one point. Guy got the feeling that if he did it wouldn't end well, and yet he also wasn't sure if it was a good idea to withhold that information from Asch.
In the end, he decided not to do it. It wasn't like Asch cared about Luke, so Guy wasn't going to bother with mentioning it. Even if Luke was back now, his memories of this place would also be gone, and so there wouldn't be anything for the two redheads to discuss as far as that went.

And then he'd had to lose him all over again.
But this was Asch he was dealing with now. Eventually, Guy glanced up, hoping that the God-General would just ignore that pause. "I'm not really sure. I'd think they must have some extremely advanced technology, and at this point I'm working on the assumption that finding that technology and figuring out how it works is our key back home."
Of course, it was a different matter for Asch, wasn't it? For all of the people who had died before coming here, there was that question about what would happen to them if they tried to go "back." And the options weren't too encouraging. Guy had to admit he didn't envy Asch. Having to tackle that question wasn't something he'd wish on anyone.

Either way, Asch had already moved on to ask about something else, and so Guy let the whole thing drop, even though he would have been more than glad to talk about it further.
"Well, our abilities are weakened here, but you probably already figured that out," he started. Placing a hand to his chin, he ran through all of the information he'd gathered during his time here, wondering what it was most essential for Asch to know.
"Oh, regularly patients will be taken during the night and either experimented on or brainwashed. When it comes to experiments, all sorts of different things could be done, but it's never good." He could have mentioned that it had happened to Luke, but once again, Guy chose to keep that to himself. "As for the brainwashing, it makes that patient turn on all the other patients and attack them." Which wasn't something he ever wanted to go through, but he'd lucked out so far.

"But yeah, it happens every night, either one or the other," he confirmed, as much as he hated to be the bearer of bad news. He wasn't sure that the brainwashing was as bad as the disappearances, though. Even though it had to be a traumatizing experience (and Guy knew that from experience, though the Curse Slot worked a little differently), at least the victims of it were here and accounted for when it was all said and done.
"No one knows what the real point of this place is, but the head doctor has a pretty sick sense of humor," Guy explained. He'd heard about the files before, of course, though he'd never made an effort to get his hands on his own, mainly because he didn't think they'd be all that helpful.

In response to the God-General's question, Guy sighed and shrugged. "It's possible to get over the wall, but it's not like you can get that far in one night, especially when there are monsters around. And once morning comes, everyone's always transported back into their beds." Asch must have experienced that already, though.
Before their conversation could continue, the intercom came on and the nurses started to mill around. Guy wasn't really sure what to say to Asch now ("I'll see you later" didn't really fit, did it?), and so all he did was get up from his seat and nod to the redhead. He was sure they'd be running into each other in one way or another.
