[Action/Accidental Voice?]

[Asch is in the wooded area in front of house 5, close to the crossroads but facing away, working through his techniques and practicing his fonic artes. He's been pretty irate since his conversation with Natalia, and after Jacob's sacrifice and his discussion with Guy, he's more focused than before, but he's still not in the best of moods.

His journal is open on a rock nearby in case something else happens or he's needed for something; feel free to a) see him, b) hear him shouting out random attacks, c) troll, or d) ignore entirely. |Db]

[He don't know what you're talking about.o/]

Indeed. I was just passing by and I noticed you ~~shouting~~ training. I apologize for mistaking you for Luke. [See? He can totally be civil.]

[uh-huh.]

Apology accepted.

[Sort of. At least, he's not completely irate about it.]

[Now he's holding out a hand.]

It's good to finally meet you in person. I've heard a lot about you.

[Asch gives him a wary look, unmoving for a moment, then finally reaches out to shake his hand. He's still undecided about the man himself, but as the emperor, it's better to be diplomatic for now.]

What is it that you know?

[Or rather, what he's been told. Lies and rumours can be stirred up by a name like 'Asch the Bloody' no matter where you go.]

[Good things, bad things, what does it matter when you're supposed to be dead? Luckily, Peony devoured everything in the guide and is prepared for something like this.]

I've kept my eye on the God Generals for a while now. I know you're different from the others.

[Asch turns away a bit, feigning disinterest.]

You were watching our movements?

I'm the emperor of Malkuth. What else did you expect?

Blind ignorance thanks to the trust placed in a religious organization, just like everyone else.

[Well, this one here certainly has his misgivings about the Order.]

You underestimate me.

[At least they have something in common?]

I'm still not impressed, since you didn't seem to do much with the information you got.

[Yeah.|D]

I'm not looking for you to be impressed. Due to certain circumstances, I found myself relying on Luke and the others to do what needed to be done.

Trusting in them, you're lucky anything got done at all.

They seem capable enough.

[...but he knows what you mean.]

[Asch just responds with a vague grunt, unwilling to acknowledge that, especially to someone who's essentially a stranger.]

[Peony also stays silent, contemplating the risks of bothering Asch even more.]

[No risks as extreme as "get your face cut off", seeing as he's not stupid and he doesn't want Guy to bitch him out for it. But since Peony isn't speaking to him anymore, he turns back to his exercises.]

[He shrugs, walking away. He decides to leave Asch to his training. For now.]

[And here Asch is going to think that's the end of it |D]
