[ ... of course, even though she decided to talk to him, actually doing it still makes her nervous. Breathe, Xion. ]

Asch? Could I talk to you?

[Voice / Private] mirrorbirth May 31 2011, 05:49:57 UTC

[...He should have expected this, considering the looks he'd gotten earlier. Nosy replicas.

It's a while before he responds, and when he does, it's probably obvious that he's both suspicious and slightly irritated about being bothered.]

What do you want?

[Voice / Private] poppetry June 1 2011, 03:50:09 UTC

It's about yesterday.

[ Of course. ]

Asch ... your scars. They ... they didn't look like the kind of scars someone lives through.

[ It's a big, big reach, for her. What does she know? Really, it's an assumption... and at the same time, she's pushing. She needs a clear answer -- at least, clear enough for her real question. ]

[His eyes flash with sudden, defensive irritation. How dare she.]

How the hell is that any of your business!?

[It's a little past midnight when Luke finds himself in front of the door to his apartment. He'd spent some time making sure everyone was okay, that they were all, in fact, alive and not suddenly dead, and telling his friends that they could go to him if they needed someone to talk to.

He's got the key to his apartment in his hand, but it shakes so much that he can't even fit it into the keyhole the first few times he tries. After a moment of fumbling, though, he finally manages it, and he opens the door and steps into the room, quietly calling out for Asch. Maybe he's sleeping... Maybe Luke shouldn't bother him, even though he desperately needs to see him. He needs to know he's really back, that Asch is here and safe, that... that everything's okay, despite him being soaking wet and covered in blood.]

A-Asch?

[Action] mirrorbirth June 6 2011, 08:25:25 UTC

[Asch doesn't respond at first; he'd broken off the connection to a minimum once the fighters had been dragged off the battlefield and returned to safety, but the days and nights of lackluster sleep has taken its toll by now, and when Luke heads inside, Asch is already dozing on the table, his head resting on crossed arms. Vaguely, in his subconscious mind, he's suddenly aware of Luke's presence, but he's not quite ready to wake up yet, so he barely stirs.]

[Action] cakeblocked June 6 2011, 08:32:02 UTC

[Luke is just about to step forward to check Asch's room when he happens to glance to the side and see Asch at the table instead. There he was... Asch. He was really there, Luke wasn't hallucinating and was certainly alive. Probably. All those sleepless nights and so much stress and fear made all of his thoughts a little warped, so -

He had to be totally sure. And - why was Asch so still, was he - no, he's okay, he's... breathing. He's okay...

Luke steps up to Asch's side and swallows, hesitantly reaching a hand out to lightly graze his fingers against Asch's shoulder, as if he doesn't know if he should be doing this or not even though he has to.]

Asch, I... I'm back. Are you asleep?

[Action] mirrorbirth June 6 2011, 08:46:36 UTC

[The reaction is instantaneous- when Luke's fingers touch him, Asch's hand lashes out to grasp his replica's wrist tightly, ensuring that he can't move away. Asch lifts his head, gazing forward with a bleary, half-asleep expression for a moment before his eyes shift to the side to spot Luke properly.

Still not letting go, mind you, but he's got other things on his mind now.]

...You're back.

[Drafts always happened in Luceti. People would go and fight, some would die, but most would return, injured and weary, yet safe. Stella hated to see the draft list go up, hated all these wars and the thought of people who couldn't even fight going out there. She hated reading the list, hated seeing people she was familiar with...

And this particular time, she hated to see that one name. Asch... He had to go out there. Granted, he's a soldier. He's probably used to these things. But even the most seasoned soldier could be hurt or killed.

It's why Stella finds herself outside of his apartment, and why she knocks quietly. Normally she'd have a smile on her face already, but this time, she's truly showing how worried she is by pursing her lips. She just hoped he was there... If not, she might have to look elsewhere. But she knew she had to see him before he left.]

[Action, August 24th] mirrorbirth August 28 2011, 03:31:53 UTC

[Asch opens the door a moment later, looking pretty calm for someone who's been called out to war. Probably a soldier thing. He is, however, holding his sword at his side, though he shifts it back a bit when he sees that it's her. He steps away from the door to let her in, though he doesn't look thrilled to see her.]

What're you doing here?

[Action, August 24th] goldenfirefly August 28 2011, 06:16:28 UTC

... I saw your name on the list.

[Stella steps inside, though she keeps her head down. Her hands are near her chest, her fingers practically tangled together, trying to find some way to occupy themselves.]

I... [She smiles and lets out a soft little laugh.] I'm not sure why I came here. To wish you the best, I suppose?

[Action, August 24th] mirrorbirth August 29 2011, 03:09:10 UTC

[So it was out of concern... he thought as much. Leading her further inside the apartment, he sets the sword down on the table, where a whetstone and a bowl of dirty water is already resting; it's probably obvious that he was in the middle of sharpening the blade. Bypassing that, though, he goes to set the kettle to boiling.]

If you're worried, you shouldn't be. I'll be fine.

[Not that he's promising anything, but if there's one thing he's still good at, it's the field of battle.]

[ ... she is getting around to this much too late. But ... she needed to tell one of them eventually. And right now, that person isn't going to be Luke. For one reason or another, it would be too hard.

Asch, for all his brusqueness, will be a little easier for her to handle. ]

... Asch? Can I talk to you?

[ voice, 100% filtered, october 3rd ] mirrorbirth October 1 2011, 00:52:11 UTC

[Asch's response is wary and somewhat delayed - it's been a weird week, okay - but he does respond eventually. And he makes sure that he's alone when he does, though he's puzzled about why she'd be privately contacting him and not his replica.]

What is it?

[ voice, 100% filtered, october 3rd ] poppetry October 1 2011, 00:56:22 UTC

... I spoke to Van. In person. [ She sounds ... unhappy, to say the least. The experience terrified her. ]

[ voice, 100% filtered, october 3rd ] mirrorbirth October 1 2011, 01:04:52 UTC

[So, the replica told her after all. He expected as much; even if they'd decided to keep his past behaviour quiet to the general public, certain individuals were... exempt. For their own reasons.]

...If you actually sought him out, you're a bigger idiot than I've ever taken you for.

[Lloyd stares back at Asch.]

I live here...? [He says it like he's been living here for months and the redhead is suddenly insane for not remembering.]

[What the- DID THE REPLICA INVITE SOME WEIRD KID INTO THEIR APARTMENT WITHOUT PERMISSION!?]

...Since when?

[And now he's mentally prodding at the fonic link to try and track down the replica in order to murderize him properly.]

[It is, yes. If only because she knows something like this is important to Asch. He's always taken good care of his hair, so sudden;y wanting to cut it? That's not him. Reasoning and her own culture and selfish desires (she wants to see his hair color again once she can - it's among her favorite colors) aside, Miyabi's not going to let him do it. And if she does, she'll disgrace herself with him.

Her eyes are fierce, and she doesn't budge an inch, she has her resolve.]

If you won't, I won't.
