He laid there where he was, finally reaching up wearily to push his bangs out of his face. That was when his elbow nudged something that should not have been there, but he was too groggy with sleep to immediately notice.

It wasn't the first bed he'd shared and definitely not the first time he'd been elbowed when doing so. So he didn't even open his eyes, just shoved the elbow out of the way. "Quit it," Yuri said, though it was still mostly indecipherable, and rolled over, away from prodding elbows.

The ex-commander was nearly certain that he'd done the other man in. He shouldn't be able to speak, much less move!
Asch quickly hoisted himself into a sitting position, reaching for the sword which wasn't there at his belt.
"Dammit..." Asch shook his head, his vision finally clearing as he looked around the room for, and finally spotted his sword. It was propped up against a chair, right where he'd left it the night before.
In his room. Asch was in his room. It had all been a dream.
However, Asch grew tense as he realized he could still hear the other soldier breathing.

He followed this pronouncement with an annoyed noise, then pulled the pillow over his head. Maybe that would get him to be quiet for at least a little while longer so Yuri could get some more sleep.

First things first. He needed to get his hands on the Maestro Sword. Once he was armed, he could wake this person up and interrogate them - and then kick them out!
Asch eased himself backwards across the mattress, seeking to reclaim distance as swiftly as possible without alerting the intruder. Now came the hard part. His sword was halfway across the room...

Still blinking sleepily, he pulled his head out from under the pillow and forced himself to sit up. This wouldn't take long, or at least he hoped not. "Where are you going?" he asked, and then his eyes finally focused.
That... wasn't Wolfram. And this wasn't his room. He knew he hadn't gone to sleep here last night. So how...? Nah, he'd deal with that later. Yuri frowned a little, shoving his hair out of his face as he looked at the guy trying to sneak across the room. Red hair... it had been awhile since he'd seen him, but... "Luke?"

Scowling openly, Asch studied Yuri. He didn't know him personally, but he'd seen him before - this was one of the other hike leaders. But even that knowledge didn't shed any light on the current situation.
And with that one word, Asch's mood, which was already bordering on extremely irritated and miserable, plummeted. His face reddened with anger.
"I'm not Luke!!" Asch snapped, his voice still hoarse from having just woken up. "What are you doing in my room?! How did you even get in here?!"
Reply
He yawned, though he kept an eye on the sword as he did. He was less asleep than he'd been pretending now; threats to his life had a way of doing that. "All right, you're not Luke." Which didn't explain why he looked just like him, but he wasn't going to ask a question like that at a time like this. "I guess we haven't met before. I'm Yuri." He gave the angry guy a friendly smile. "And I have no idea how I got here."
Reply
"Asch," the noble replied, ignoring Yuri's attempts at being friendly. He'd heard the name 'Yuri' somewhere before, but what did that matter? Asch wasn't exactly a ball of sunshine in the morning...not like he ever was. "You're working at the camp this month."
After a moment of silence Asch lowered the weapon the rest of the way.
"The ship's engine must be acting up again. I didn't invite you here."
Reply
He lifted a hand and rubbed the back of his neck, trying to remember. No, he definitely remembered going to sleep in his own room last night. "Unless we both have some sort of amnesia, you didn't."
Now he was really awake. Not much point in trying to go back to sleep and that wasn't even considering that it wasn't his bed and Asch didn't look too welcoming. "Mind if I get up?"
Reply
Amnesia... Asch shook his head emphatically. "No. I remember everything up until the time I fell asleep."
Not being in the mood to strike up a conversation, the noble took several steps back to give Yuri enough room to move.
"Go right ahead."
Reply
"Yeah, me, too. So unless I've taken up sleepwalking, something's up." He glanced around the room, trying to figure it out, but the lack of windows made it hard. "What room is this, anyway?"
With a nod, he got out of the bed, then glanced down. Oh yeah, he'd definitely been asleep when this had happened. "Sorry about this. It's not how I'd usually meet someone."
Reply
"It's mine. This is apartment 5-3."
Asch lacked the tact to offer Yuri a robe, but at the very least had the decency to avert his eyes. Normally you didn't carry out a conversation with someone in your underwear.
"I should hope not. Now if you're done talking, you're free to leave."
But from the way Asch's jaw was set, he was obviously displeased. What he really meant was "get out now".
Reply
However, unfortunately for Asch, while Yuri picked up on the meaning behind his words and noticed his discomfort, he wasn't inclined to make it easy on him. Not when Yuri felt so uncomfortable himself. So he smiled, one hand going to his hip in his habitual gesture.
"You're going to throw me out? Like this?"
Reply
It was a comment Asch didn't bother acknowledging. They'd already established a case of sleepwalking as unlikely.
Shooting a glare in the other man's direction, Asch replied, "If you're capable of standing before a stranger like that, you should be equally capable of walking down a hallway. It's not my problem."
If the situation had been different (and less abrupt), Asch might have been more willing to help, but as things stood, he really just wanted Yuri gone.
