[Augh. The stupid bastard! Luke just had to go alerting everyone! It's as good as hanging up a huge white flag. Now the whole city knows something's wrong with him and they'll be rushing to take advantage of it. Of course they will. Anyone would.]
What do you think you're doing?! ...I just...! [Inhale, Asch. Exhale, inhale. Slow.] I just got through... telling you I'm... fine!
[Asch braces himself against the wall, tries to focus. Makes a grab towards Luke's arm, although his movements seem slow.] Turn it off!!
...Since when did you get so stubborn? [This is irritating. They're the same height, and yet there's very little chance Asch can grab the communications device from where he is now. Not to mention Luke's probably already figuring out he's got an advantage over him.]
[Asch bares his teeth in a snarl. His volume rises.] I don't have time...to argue! Now hand over the Seal!!
[There's a note of irritation in his voice, which might sound a little distant and strained, almost as if he's holding the seal away from him and a certain original trying to grab it]
[Since Leoben doesn't waste time on greetings, Luke doesn't either.] I don't know. I was just out patrolling when I looked ahead and saw him like this.
[Well, he was maybe a little better. But well on his way to being like this, so it amounts to the same thing in the end.]

[He was just wandering around town, looking for signs of either the real thing or Sora--God, that is still odd to think about: five-year-old best friend... of the real thing. Heh... Sora didn't even know of him, did he.
He's pulled from his train of thought by hearing two sort-of similar voices yelling at each other. That in itself didn't make him double take. No. What made him take a second look? ...Holy shit they're identical. So either they're twins, or...] What-?
[Oh... One of them was in need of help. Now he wishes he'd practiced a bit more with the magic that wasn't originally his, but... he'll still approach.]
... Are you alright? [Obviously not, but still. Yeah, stupid question.]
[Luke glances up. Oh... it's that guy who helped him look for Tear, back when she left. Luke hesitates - he doesn't know the guy that well and he's pretty sure he doesn't know Asch - but... he'll take what help he can get right now.]
Hey... [... still no name for this guy. Hm.] Something's wrong with Asch... I think he's in pain and he can't move well or anything.
[Action] And then there were more replicas.claim_my_placeAugust 27 2011, 03:31:45 UTC
[Asch looks up, one eye trained on the newcomer. Something about him seems a little familiar, but he can't be sure above the haze. But then hundreds of people have come and gone through Splendor. And that other place, too.]
[His attention wavers between them and finally settles on Luke. That idiot's being such a damn nuisance. What's the point in explaining the situation when he isn't even sure what the situation is?]
[Asch groans quietly. If the pain would just go away everything would be fine and he could walk off on his own.]
[Action] And twice the derp and angst.nisenosonzaiAugust 27 2011, 04:36:08 UTC
[Yeah. No name, yet... but he's been working on it all on his own. He looks between the two, shaking his head. Well... he hadn't exactly practiced that much with the curing aspect, but it wouldn't hurt to try.]
[Rep sighs, summoning his fake Soul Eater.] Well, I won't say I'm an expert in magic, but... [He raises it above his head, the tip glowing green. It's weak, but maybe the Cure spell would take off some of the bite.]
Action - Because this would workradiantwinged1August 26 2011, 21:21:12 UTC
[ The main problem with keeping large, fluffy rabbit monsters is that they tend to escape far more often than creatures with no limbs have a right too.
Duke is currently following a bunwigle, which has taken a turn through the district of Splendor that Duke has been avoiding and... right into the squabbling redheads.
And because monsters have this way of sensing weakness, the more angry sounding of the pair can expect to find a ball of "rabbit" thunking solidly into back of his legs. ]
[Already wobbily, Asch has to fight for balance as something collides with his shin. In this case, balance equals gripping the wall with both arms.]
[Irritably the redhead cranes his neck to get a good look at the culprit. Is this someone's idea of a joke, or is he so sick he's started hallucinating? If it's real, it must've wandered around the corner while he was trying to make Luke relinquish his Seal.]
[You there. Monster thing. Don't be bumping into Asch's legs while he's still struggling to stand up! Not to mention it's a monster... But Luke can't exactly attack it straight on with it being this close and Asch being unable to move. He's contemplating ways to at least lead it away from Asch when Duke speaks, making him glance up, surprised.]

[Holding the seal out of Asch's reach - way back behind his head - is easy with Asch's sluggish movements.]
You're not okay!
[He's not leaving you alone until you get help. This will be an intervention if it has to be. :|]

[He shakes his head briefly]
I... I don't know what's wrong. He's... he's not really moving and he looks like he's hurting... [Could he maybe be sick?]

Where are you, Luke?
[Because he is on his way.]

Somewhere in Metropolis. Not too far from Alpha District, I think...

[And a few minutes later he has spotted Luke and is coming over.]

A monster.

... I told you to behave. [ It stops rolling to nudge into Asch's legs again. Not as hard as the first time. ]
