[See Asch. See Asch with the faintest hint of a bruise still on his face. Otherwise he's wearing his perpetual scowl, although he doesn't seem any more angry today than usual. Maybe even a little less so, if such a thing is possible. Today he's trying to be diplomatic. Keyword: Trying.]I'm looking for someone with detailed functional knowledge of

Spaceships? Are you going somewhere, Asch?

[claim_my_place]

Don't worry. I'm not going anywhere.

[Yet.]

[aerial_laser]

Oh, I see. I didn't know you were that interested in things like that.

[claim_my_place]

It's not an interest so much as potentially useful information.

[aerial_laser]

I think that depends on the circumstances.

[claim_my_place]

Ginji would never show me how to fly the Albiore III.

[aerial_laser]

Then this is your chance to learn. Though he still probably won't let you fly it.

[claim_my_place]

[He's about to point out that Ginji is dead, but stops himself. It's not as if Natalia needs another reminder that Auldrant is gone.]

...Probably not.

[aerial_laser]

[Natalia knows he's dead. She's just determined to believe they can bring Auldrant back.]

When you've learned, I hope you'll let me fly with you.

[claim_my_place]

[This screwy idea is an attempt to get closer to bringing it back, but Asch isn't counting any chickens yet.]

[Ffff. Oh Nat.]

Well...I have to find a reliable instructor first. And a ship.

[aerial_laser]

I wouldn't think an instructor would be so difficult, but a ship sounds expensive.

[claim_my_place]

I'll worry about the ship later.

...No. I've found two prospects already.
