Alright, so the festival isn't a complete disaster. I forgot how long it's been since I actually went to something like this.

... I... don't think he'd resent you, Guy. I know I don't have a right to say anything about him, and I don't know him at all, but... if he's your father, he must have been kind.

So I've heard. Pere constantly tells me about my family; I think he's trying to save me from the fear of forgetting them.

[Private]

[dissonates]

.... When you lose your family before it's supposed to happen, it's impossible to forget.

[Private]

[count-gardios.livejournal.com]

...mm. I suppose that's true.

[Private]

[dissonates]

....So why did you tell me all of that?

[Private]

[count-gardios.livejournal.com]

Well...I was there when you were afraid.

I guess I thought you should repay the favor and hear about my fears, too.

[Private]

[dissonates]

....

Hey... are you in the house?

[Private]

[count-gardios.livejournal.com]

Yep.

[Private]

[dissonates]

Is... it alright if I see you?

[Private]

[count-gardios.livejournal.com]

Well it would get a little awkward around here if it wasn't, don't you think?

[Private]

[dissonates]

Guy.

[Private]

[count-gardios.livejournal.com]

Did that sound like a no?

[Private]

[dissonates]

Why are you so afraid of a serious conversation?

[Private]

[count-gardios.livejournal.com]

It's not so much serious conversation that I'm afraid of.

[Private]

[dissonates]

... You can say no if you want. I won't get angry.

[Private]

[count-gardios.livejournal.com]

That's not it at all.

You can come see me. I'm in my room.

[Private / Action]

[dissonates]

...Alright.

[And Asch is at the door a minute later eh.]

[Action]

[count-gardios.livejournal.com]

[Hell boy, that was quick. Guy's lying back on his bed, arms behind his head and an ankle balanced on a bent knee.]

Come in.

[Action]

[dissonates]

[He wasn't lurking by the door or anything. Asch slips in, shutting the door behind him, and lingers by it for a moment, not too sure of himself just yet.]

[Action]

[count-gardios.livejournal.com]

[Then he's probably going to be standing for a while, since Guy isn't moving and his eyes are closed.]

[Action]

[dissonates]

[Well, damn. Eventually Asch figures this out and steps over to the bed, turning around and sitting down on it, looking at the floor.]

...What're you afraid of?

[Action]

[count-gardios.livejournal.com]

[And it's another good long while before Guy answers; his eyes open to stare at the ceiling, lips barely moving as he murmurs his answer.]

...I dunno. Feels like...something inside me will twist and break off...it doesn't make any sense.

[Action]

[dissonates]

... Maybe it does.

[Asch's fingers tense in the bedsheets, just a little.]

I don't understand it either.

[Action]

[count-gardios.livejournal.com]

Mm.

[Guy shifts his weight. His leg rests against Asch's back.]

[Action]

[dissonates]

[Asch doesn't move away from it. His hands move, sliding away from the sheets to meet on his knees, clasping together.]
