[Action]

[Early in the morning, Asch is by the section of trees close to the river outside House 5, standing in the snow in just his uniform, holding the Key of Lorelei. He seems fixated on whatever it is he's doing, namely holding the Key tip-down into the snow, both hands on the end of the hilt, eyes closed as he focuses. Every few moments you might catch a slight glow around him, little more than a flicker before it fades.

Talk, harass, troll, lurk? He's open for bothering, though he won't like it. |D]

I think I can deal with it.

Oh good. [Not that Guy looked particularly bothered to begin with.]

[Yeah, he didn't think so.

Sip, sip. Think.]

A gald for your thoughts.

You don't have any gald to share. [Slight tease = pointless delaying.]

I'll write up an IOU.

What if I refuse?

I'll pester you until you give in.

You probably would. You're annoying like that.

[Though at this rate it's probably in his best interest to just cave.]

I am.

So, are you going to tell me?

I'm trying to figure this out. [Sip sip. Poooonder.]

Is that all?

...Hm.

[Asch pauses, lowering his hand and his head, gazing at his lap.]

Doesn't this remind you of anything?

[Yes.] Not really.

[He knows.] Liar.

That's a little rude, Asch.

I call it as I see it.

Well, whether or not it reminds me of anything is irrelevant. It's not the same situation or the same circumstances.

You have no idea what it is.

You know a lot more about seventh fonons and fomicry -and yourself- than I do, Asch.

Then why do you think I'm- [He cuts himself off there. No way can he say that.]

[Guy has a hunch as to what he'd say, but he gives Asch a second to complete his sentence anyway. When it's clear he isn't going to, he responds quietly-] I asked you to go to bed because you looked like you needed rest. That's all.

....

[He remembers resting a lot before he died, too.]

[Yeah, most people rest a lot before dying, dorkface.] Besides, forcing yourself to hyperresonate when you already know you're having trouble is just asking for a bout of exhaustion.

[...Well, actually-] It wasn't hyperresonance.
