Asch had been buying the groceries that she'd use to cook for the next two weeks, instead of relying on takeout like most of her roommates. Asch... She loved to cook. She'd devoted so many hours back to it in her Template, just learning how to mix everything to make it taste delicious. It was the only type of shopping that she was any good at-- besides weapons shopping. Which was much more difficult to do within the city anyway.

Eventually... she'd need new clothes.

She'd think about that later, especially as her thought process was derailed and she herself nearly fell over from a surprise pouncing she'd received from Haruhi. She blinked, looking down at the girl as a light red blush covered her face. And once the surprise had vanished, she frowned. Deeply. Very deeply.

"You can't just surprise someone like that!" though it had been her fault for not being aware. And... Haruhi was particularly quiet. "Why are you alone?"

Haruhi pressed her face into Asch's stomach, trying to get some comfort. Asch was nice, Asch would help. The whole video with the Joker had terrified her, he was so much like the men back at the facility, cold with out a regard for life. And then Nataku had left to find him, Haruhi shivered and clung to the older girl.

"'Taku left to find the scary man and my house is lonely. I don't wanna be alone."

Asch paused at her words. The scary man... The strange clown guy, the one that had killed those people... Asch gritted her teeth in anger just thinking about that performance. She should be out looking too. She would be out looking, as soon as she finished shopping. They didn't have maids here, they didn't have people to cater to their every need.

Asch looked down at the trembling girl, frowning, though it was softer than before.

And then she looked at the shelves. "Fine, but don't get in the way. I need to finish running errands."

Relief flooded Haruhi at Asch's words; Asch was going to be with her, and she wouldn't have to be lonely anymore. Even though Asch was a girl, Haruhi thought she looked pretty strong, the scary man couldn' hurt Asch.

"I'll be good, promise," Haruhi climbed up onto the side of the shopping cart and tumbled inside. She sat up and crawled to the end of the cart, getting to be like so many other kids for once.
