... I haven't seen any ghosts.

I guess everyone's still alive, then.

Guy, where the hell are you hiding? I know you're still in the house. Running away isn't going to help you or anyone else, you know.

...It isn't a regrettable action, as compared to what else you listed. [But even so, Asch's declaration made his eyes widen just a tad. It's hard to tell on a face like his though]

[Asch snorts. Any respect he has left for Suik is minimal and fading very quickly.]

You're an idiot. If you want to die, just kill yourself. There's no reason to involve other people.

...Iris requested that-- [And now he's starting to realize how absurd that sounds, so he pauses there]

[Asch scowls, turning away and crouching to look for a reasonably safe way down the mountain.]

I don't give a damn what she wants, and to hell with you, too.

...I see. [That tone is tired, but it's almost mirthful, which is refreshing] Thank you, Asch.

[And here Iris starts to protest something, but Suik just tries to ignore her. He touches the ground right behind Asch's feet, where before they came here he had set up a return Gate, which would lead back to under the bridge]

...That will lead you back, safely.

[Convenient, but like hell he's falling for that. Asch shoots Suik a glare over his shoulder, and without a word he slides over the edge of the overhang, starting to climb down the mountain and ignoring the portal entirely. Foolhardy, perhaps, but his pride won't allow him to accept the help of someone who'd tried to blackmail him.]

[And he had gone to the effort to set it up so he could open that after Asch shanked him even if he se dying... a lot of energy down the drain. Oh well. He presses a hand against it, closing it, and then starts to follow the other down.

He might've forced Asch here, but it was never his intention to endanger him. He might as well (backwardly) escort the other back.

[Asch of course doesn't miss the fact that Suik's following him, and glares over his shoulder, gripping the rock face carefully. It would be just his luck to fall and crack his head on the mountain or something, with the way his day had been going thus far.

Regardless, he didn't want any pity parties.]

You stay the hell away from me.

[...Pause. Apologies, but--] I'm keeping my distance.

[Asch keeps glaring for a moment, then 'hmph's and continues down the mountain, cursing now and then if he happens to slide a bit too far or lose his grip. Luckily he manages to avoid killing himself on rocks, though progess is slower than he'd have liked. Before they're even halfway down, he's starting to lose his pace, breathing hard, hand shaking as they grasp at the rocks. Leaving the house - to hell with that, getting out of bed - had been a mistake.]

[This guy isn't panting, because most of his energy is being used by his brain (protip: his muscles are really weak, so he psionically moves his own limbs most of the time) so he's starting to nod off here and there. Still, duty calls for him to see this redhead home -- he was involved as a proxy. Sure, Iris is cursing at him still but--

Wait. Wait shit that new ghost it's--?

...And then Suik looses his footing entirely. He might catch himself (Lord knows he was above Asch anyway so he'll have time to catch himself), but now he's gunna be free-falling for a bit]

[Asch doesn't miss the stumble behind him. And to be perfectly honest, he doesn't care, either, as he's busy focusing on his own troubles. A few more steps is all it takes for him to sag to his knees, hunching over, trying desperately to catch a decent gulp of air. His heart's pounding on overdrive and his limbs feel like they've been petrified. He can feel his energy fading fast as the deterioration of his fonons progresses.

...Okay, maybe it's time for a break.]
