I can't believe I'm doing this.

I'm Asch.

[.....Does he have to explain more?]

...Guy mentioned me the other day.

[More?]

...Don't feel obligated to talk to me just because he asked.

[Maybe that was too much.]

....I'll try to be friendly if you do, though.

[Wait that came out wrong.]

....Right.

[That should do it.]

It depends on who I'm talking to.

[Not animals, just Master Badtouch.]

[dragonsboy.livejournal.com]

[Amen, brother.]

I can understand that.

[dissonates]

You have the same problem?

[dragonsboy.livejournal.com]

Sometimes. I'll admit, I haven't had contact with a wide variety of people.

[dissonates]

...Same here. Not long-term contact, anyway. Nothing beyond business relations.

[dragonsboy.livejournal.com]

Business relations...

Yes, that sounds about right.

[dissonates]

Seems like even in a place like this, you can find people similar to you.

[dragonsboy.livejournal.com]

...I guess you're right. Though...this place might have something to do with it, instead.

[dissonates]

What do you mean?

[dragonsboy.livejournal.com]

People in our worlds, our own worlds, they come to their own conclusions based on hearsay, or prophecy or general bias. Here, there aren't any limitations like that.

...here, it's all right to be the way you are. People will accept it simply due to the fact that our worlds are so different, they can only assume that you are the norm. Natural.

[dissonates]

...That's a good point. There aren't any expectations here. No demands, no laws, no age-old stories dictating your life and your future.

[dragonsboy.livejournal.com]

Mm. I've been readily accepted here, despite my differences. It's...very nice.

[dissonates]

The people here are very accommodating. You seem normal enough to me, though.

[dragonsboy.livejournal.com]

Hm.

Thank you. The same to you.

[dissonates]

[That's... unusual, but cool.]

Er, right.

[dragonsboy.livejournal.com]

[...did he say something weird.]

Or...not?

[dissonates]

[No, they're just awkward.]

No, no. It's nothing.
