[Action, August 24th]

[Asch pauses at the counter, hands resting on it for a moment as he silently waits for the kettle. Why is she asking him what? It's not like he has a good answer for her... it's bad enough that he has to tell her not to worry, but that... hasn't he already told her not to pretend?

His chest hurts, and he's not even sure why, for once. He can't look at her, knowing what kind of expression she must be wearing. It's the same as Natalia.

Dammit...]

...I can't tell you what you should do. But you still shouldn't worry.

[He knows he's being a hypocrite. But that doesn't really matter to him right now.]

[... Stella smiles, a little, though it isn't out of false encouragement or hope. She's honestly slightly humored - just two sentences, and Asch already contradicted himself. She shuts her eyes, and her smile grows. They're both hypocrites, aren't they?]

You can't tell me what to do, and yet you still tell me I shouldn't worry. Asch...

["Do you know how silly you sound?"

But she doesn't say that out loud. Instead, she lets out a breath, her smile fading as she looks up at him.]

I know how capable of a fighter you are. You're a soldier... The battlefield is something you're used to. I'm not doubting your abilities... But I'll still worry.

[...Ugh. He hates it when people worry- as if his life is even worth that much these days. Not that he can even say that without getting a lecture in response.

It's... not like he wants to die, either. He knows how it feels, what you get out of it. He knows how certain people who shall remain unnamed would react. And even if, in this place, he could be back in a week...

Still. It doesn't really changed a damn thing.]

Would it help if I said I'll be careful?
