[When Luke goes silent, Asch at first assumes that that's the end of it, and he starts to close off the link, ignoring the feeling of dissatisfaction. It's not like he expected Luke to accept his decision easily, after all, though he hadn't expected Luke to give up so easily.
Maybe he doesn't really...
...but then he's moving, and it startles Asch enough to make him keep the link open, if only to let him watch where Luke is running off to. Is his replica... trying to track him? The very idea is absurd. Ridiculous.
...except he's... sort of going in the right direction. Asch is momentarily stunned, eyes widening, and he pushes away from the building he'd been leaning against to take a few steps, almost unwillingly, towards the direction Luke is in.
It's not possible, is it? He can't- he's just guessing- he's going somewhere else-
...right...?
Even so... he's walking. Hesitantly, cursing himself under his breath, he's walking.]
