Stella, Senel, I'm heading out. Thanks for letting me stay with you. ...I left food. Check the stove before it burns.

Rika... thanks for the riceballs.


[Private to Guy]

.......Is it alright if I come back?

[Guy stops short at that and tugs Asch's arm around to face him.] Don't say that again, Asch, I mean it.

[Asch flinches almost imperceptibly, gritting his teeth.] It's how I feel, though. I can't just lie.

[Guy was holding Asch's arm, so of course he could tell. And he slowly lets go.] ...then you need to redefine what you think a coward is.

[Asch gives his arm a slight rub, though Guy hadn't hurt him.] Someone who runs from problems instead of facing them properly seems pretty cowardly to me.

That wasn't the type of problem you can face. Staying probably would have made things worse; I was going to leave if you hadn't.

...But you stayed with Luke.

We're not having this argument again, Asch.

...Sorry. Nevermind.

It's over and done with. I'm not that person anymore, do we really have to talk about it?

[A sigh. Guy's right; Asch is clinging to an issue that'll only make him bitter in the end if he keeps at it.] No, we don't. It's okay... it doesn't matter anymore.

[Guy watches Asch for a bit to confirm; he probably wasn't totally over it, but close enough. So he reaches over and takes Asch's hand, twining their fingers together and heading back inside.]

[Asch follows him in, feeling a little more at ease about what had happened. At least it's over and done with, now.]
