"Lovely assistant", my ass.

Don't expect any masterpieces at the bar tonight.


[ooc: As Guy stated, Asch is looking after Grumpy Good Spirits for the night. People are free to visit him or just bother him via journals. He'll bitch either way, I'm sure.]

I thought you didn't want him to be left alone.

I'm just hovering. You know how I am. I can ask someone to stay if I need to.

[Private]

[dissonates]

...It's your choice.

[Private]

[count-gardios.livejournal.com]

[...damn it.]

...would you come home if I asked you to?

[Private]

[dissonates]

Is that what you really want?

[Private; Voice] 1/fuck i dunno

[count-gardios.livejournal.com]

...Asch...I need to apologize.

[Private; Voice]

[count-gardios.livejournal.com]

I...act like just because I'm older than you, or because maybe I'm more socially adjusted than you that I know so much more than you do, about people and even about yourself. I say things like "I know you too well," or, "because I know you..."

[Private; Voice]

[count-gardios.livejournal.com]

But I don't.

I might be able to predict how you act sometimes...but you can hide things from me without me even being able to tell. And I'm too absorbed in myself and other things to even ask you, because...I don't give you enough consideration. Because I don't know you well enough.

I...do care about you, Asch. And I want what we have to become something really-...important, really special, I really do...I'm just not sure how to go about doing it.

We stagnated...I know. And it's my fault.


...please forgive me...and give me a little time to stop fumbling around like an idiot.

...Thank you.

For taking me seriously.

[Private; Voice]

[count-gardios.livejournal.com]

I'm sorry if it seems like I don't. You aren't a toy or a game to me, Asch. You're very important.


Just...making things lighthearted...helps me not to worry. I'll tone it down.

[Private; Voice]

[dissonates]

... I like it when you make things lighthearted. When it's like that, I... feel like I don't hate everything. Like maybe I can be normal. It's getting easier, every time.

But jokes won't fix everything. I'm going to take this seriously, Guy - I expect the same of you.

[Private; Voice]

[count-gardios.livejournal.com]

I know.

I'm sorry. I'll try harder.

[Private; Voice]

[dissonates]

.... Am I Is it still worth the trouble?

[Private; Voice]

[count-gardios.livejournal.com]

Definitely. [No hesitation there. He might not be as messed up as you, Asch, but Guy recognizes that he has his own issues to work out.]

[dissonates]

...Good answer.

[count-gardios.livejournal.com]

Will you come home?

[Private; Voice]

[dissonates]

Yeah, I'll leave early.

[Private; Voice]

[count-gardios.livejournal.com]

I'll be here.

[And Asch is tromping sorta quietly through the door a few hours later; he didn't want to ditch a commitment entirely, but it wasn't horribly busy, so he stayed as long as he could tolerate it before excusing himself. He's definitely not cut out for bartending.]

[Guy's cleaning up in the kitchen, obviously not in the best of moods.

He and Luke had a fight, and then that whole thing with Asch...it has been an emotionally draining day.]
