[Voice / Action]

Natalia's gone back.

[And he's... not sure how he even feels about that, especially since it's the second time now. He's not the sort to broadcast his feelings on the matter anyway, so he'll leave it at that.]

[Locked to Dist - 75% Unhackable]

If you've prepared everything you need, it's about time we meet.

[Asch won't be around the house much today; he'll probably be home late. His main haunts today will be the Battle Dome, the library, (maybe a quick bite to eat in the plaza |D) and finally Good Spirits to ~~sulk~~ read a book in a tucked-away corner of the bar. ...Though the amount of reading may decrease depending on what he's drinking over the course of the evening...

Oddly enough, Star the cheagle will be tagging along with him over the course of the day.]

...Later.

[...On second thought-]

If you're working tonight, I'll be going there first.

[ she will likely laugh more, if he keeps up that attitude. but for now she is appeased. in Asch's own voice, with that same distorted echo: ]

Cheagle. Star. [ a beat. in her amalgam voice: ] What. World. From? [ this creature... is it of earth? She's never seen its like, though she knows she hasn't seen all her planet has to offer. ]

Yes. It's her home, after all.

. . . We'll miss her terribly.

[FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF DID SHE JUST USE HIS VOICE, KJHFKDJSF WHAT WHAT WHAT]

[Dist glances at the two briefly before looking over some of his notes. He had to kill time before they arrived, and had gone over what he remembered. His eyes lock on the terrified cheagle and, a second later--]

Which are you, original or replica? [He has a good guess, but might as well get it straight.]

[....okay. O-okay. Just breathe, it wasn't that freaky. And Star is giving him a weird look now, ugh.]

It's called Auldrant.

[Fail, Dist. That is not "nice". Then again Asch can't lecture him, since... he is not the nicest person ever.

...HE'D DO IT ANYWAY THOUGH except Star shakily pipes up that he's the original. And that... is not what Asch expected to hear.]

...What? I thought you were the replica!

I'm sure. [Sorry, man, he is just not very helpful :c]

[ Understandable. ;; ]

Thank you again. I appreciate the notice. . . . I'll leave you be, now.

Please have a good day.

Auldrant...

[ again, his voice. congratulations, Asch; you're now one of the voices that will get included in the amalgam voice she's been building up. though not immediately; after this conversation, at least. she can respect his poor nerves that much. in her "normal" voice once more: ]

Many. Worlds. ... strange. [ again, she blows a breeze through his hair, staring up at him without blinking. ] Where -- going?

That doesn't mean it just- gets easier!

[Luke doesn't even know why he's shouting- he's just so... hurt, sad and angry, and not even at Asch. But Asch is there, and he can take Luke yelling, even if it means he might yell back.]

[And yell he does.]

You can believe whatever you want, you stupid dreck! You think I care!?

[Oh thank goodness. He can only take so much mind-freaking, thanks. ...No offense. ...Wait, he's not afraid of offending it - her - it - and it can't hear him anyway- dammit, whatever!]

It's none of your business where I was going.

[He sure wishes you did sometimes. Those insults - again - just makes him feel like he got physically shoved down, again.]

... Damn it, just- Shut up and leave me alone!

[JOURNAL SHUT. And right after he does that, he feels like he should open up the journal again and try to talk, but... No. Both of them aren't in the mood for that.

Instead, he'll just... clench his hands together, then get up and head out of his room. He can't stay in the house anymore.]

Ahhh...I'll see you there, then.

[Except he doesn't want to talk about what he has to say in the bar.]

As I expected... [Dist jots something down on the margin of his notes and looks at the cheagle again. Sorry, Asch, you're getting ignored for just a few minutes.] What became of your replica? Did it pass away? If you could, include details. ...And speak up, I dislike repeating myself.

[The simulations go on for a little while longer, Tear carefully planning out Fonic Hymns against the last series of wolves coming toward her and using physical force when needed. It isn't until she is done and notices the flash of red out of the corner of her eye that she realizes there's someone watching her.

Staring right at you now, Asch. What do?]

[Was that uncertainty? He's not sure, it's hard to tell.]

Is something wrong?

[Stare right back for a moment... and then turn around and start walking down the steps. Maybe if he's lucky he'll get out of the building before she decides to try talking with him >_>]

[He starts the conversation, and then he ragequits? Ugh, stupid dreck, seriously.

But they can't seem to avoid each other forever; Asch is just heading out of the medical center as Luke conveeeeniently might just be showing up at the battle dome later on in the day...]

[Asch is the one who didn't want to talk to him in the first place, jeez. 8|

Indeed, that's where Luke is. He'd been wandering the village for a while, just trying to get his mind off of the fact that Natalia is gone... But nothing had been working. So, what better way to focus on something else than battling with holograms?

Luke doesn't really notice Asch yet - he's busy trying to figure out the coordinates. He can do the simpler battles, but he wants more of a challenge now.]

[Asch waits a moment, then gives the cheagle a nudge when Star remains silent. Sullenly, the cheagle continues.]

I died first. Then I felt something warm, and I woke up... and my replica was gone.

[.....Crap. It's the replica. Asch stands still for a moment, debating if he can back away into the medical area just long enough for Luke to go inside the room- and the pause is just long enough for Star to stop moping about his talk with Dist and notice Luke there, piping up with an excited, "mieu!"]

[That's enough to make Luke's attention snap to the medical bay, and- oh. It's Asch. But the fact that he's even here makes Luke lift his hand away from the coordinates; what was Asch doing here? And in the medical bay, at that? And with Star?]

Asch? Star?

[Asch, your luck is never that good. Any other day she would have left you alone, but today isn't like any other day, and from what she knows of Luke, you're very likely moping about.

So she is following you, yes. :|a]
