[Meet a new Guy to the dressing room!]

[After Van's supposed death, Guy has established his new home in Grand Chokmah as the heir to the House of Gardios. Unfortunately, it's feeling just like "home" as he expected it would. And he finds more and more that a being a servant wasn't so bad as long as a certain redhead continued on as his master. But now was a time for stepping forward; for letting the past go and finding a whole new future in a world that used to seem so distant. And that's why when Guy discovered a certain ex-God General was wandering about town, he figured now was the time to correct one of the errors from his past. Though it would seem he's gotten a little astray along the way...]

You've got to be kidding me... Here I thought I knew Grand Chokmah well enough to not wind up lost.
I'll never hear the end of this from Jade.

[Asch just gives a nod. He had intended to do that after all. He walks along ever so often he glances back to make sure he hasn’t lost Guy. He doesn’t say much now, noticing that the other was a bit pre occupied having a look around the area. Good thing it wasn’t much farther.]

[It wasn't much longer before Guy caught up to the redhead, walking alongside him as he worked up a smile. It would do no good to mope about Auldrant right now, and he really should show more gratitude to the one who found him. Hell, he might not have known a civilization existed at all in this world if not for this Asch]

So, you said you lived with a Guy, right? Is he from your world as well?

[He gives Guy a quick glance then continues to look ahead. ] That’s right, he is my- He is the one from my world.

[He smiles faintly. Guy was one of the people he really liked, and considered a good friend. There is a hint of fondness in his voice as he continues to talk about him.]

I told you I have been here for a few years and all this time I have been living with him. In a sense you can say he raised me. Back then I didn’t expect him to act so kindly towards me but… [He suddenly pauses thinking he has said too much.]

[Guy blinks but doesn't question the slip up. It makes him curious though... even more so as he continues to listen to Asch's story and the subtle hints of affection in his demeanor when he speaks of this Guy]

I see... [This was all very unfamiliar to Guy, who had never heard the original speak in a voice filled with such content. He was glad... At least he knew some of the "Guys" here weren't as wretched as he had been]

So I take it you made this place your permanent home then?

[Asch managed to keep himself from blushing. Quickly recovering from his slip up Asch answered Guy’s new question.]

I didn’t see any way around it. So yes.

[He wasn’t sure if he should share his wish to return to his world one day. Ever since he had been young he had told himself he would return to Auldrant but had found this place inescapable so far.]

[Guy smiled as he caught the red creeping up Asch's cheeks. If there was one thing different in this world, it was that this person was far easier to speak with than the Asch he had promised himself to meet. He was kinda cute all bashful like that. Maybe he just needed to embarrass the original from his world to make him talk~]

Well then, maybe I will take you up on that offer. How about we find the way out of here together? [Guy patted the much shorter individual on the head, wondering if it would cause any sort of backlash]

[Over the course of time, it seemed his Guy had gotten him use to the abuse of his head and hair. So he will only tilt his head away from the offending hand. He makes no comment about it, figuring out that this was a common thing all Guys liked to do.]

[He will focus instead on the prospect of finding a way home.] Yes. Let’s do that. I am not getting far looking by myself, maybe with some help…

First let’s get you settled in. I doubt we will suddenly come upon an exit of some sort.

[Awww, this Asch had even let down his pride enough to accept help. He sure would like to pick at this other Guy's brain on how to accomplish this. He had to laugh at himself for thinking this though. It wasn't like him to dwell on the original so much. More guilt, perhaps?]

Well alright, it's a date then! [He winked at the redhead, grinning as he hopelessly imagined they'd really reach the ends of this world]

Yes. It’s a—[No, wait. That wasn’t right. He gives Guy an incredulous look. This was odd, and embarrassing.] What?

[Then he realizes what Guy meant and nods slowly. Only to catch Guy’s wink. His eyes widen in surprise. Once again he felt embarrassed, and hangs his head. Was he taking this too seriously? Well now he began to doubt his decision to go along with this Guy to search for a way home but he couldn’t back out now.]

[Guy laughs more genuinely than he has all evening. Asch's face was simply too priceless] I'm just kidding, silly.

Now, how about that room?

[Silly? He can’t help but to let a frown slip on his face. In the end it’s not much of a frown.]

Sure. We’re close now… no actually we’re here.

[He walks towards a nearby door, and knocks on it.] You just have to check to make sure no one is using the room. If no one answers open the door and check inside. Sometimes the owner’s are out. [He opens the door to have a peek inside.] This one is taken.

[Guy watches curiously, oblivious to the affects of his comment on the original. He couldn't believe the people here would leave without locking their doors... The fact that he or Asch could've simply waltzed in was a little unnerving for his own privacy]

I see. I'll be sure to remember that if I ever feel nosy. [He winked, obviously kidding, but he hoped Asch knew that as well.]

[It took a few second for Asch to catch that. He was once again caught of guard by Guy’s winking.]

I don’t think they would appreciate your snooping. Anyway some of the people here are not the type you want to get involved with. Just remember this, even if they look like people you know it doesn’t mean they are necessarily the same. Some may be dangerous.

[He pauses, and carefully looks at Guy. Realization dawns on his face. This man had only been joking. Well he had always been a little slow at this sort of thing, so he wasn’t exactly pleased.]

Right… I get it.

[The blonde laughed again, finding this all very amusing and quite needed in a time where he wanted nothing more than to stop thinking about his situation]

Dangerous? How so?

Well… [He pauses to think of the most dangerous people around.]

You should be aware there is a certain character out here who acts rather suspiciously. No I should say, he is a killer. He goes around hurting and killing anyone he comes across. You’ll be surprised to hear this but he looks like Luke.

I am sure he isn’t the only dangerous person here though.

A killer? [Well that wasn't too unusual... Or at least he thought as much until Asch explained in further detail.]

You said he "looks" like Luke, but is he actually him? Or is this someone in disguise. [In which case, he might have to give the bastard a piece of his mind for impersonating his friend] Does he have any motives for these murders?

As far as I know he is a replica. There is something wrong with him it seems, you see he needs to consume the fonons from others in order to survive. I am not sure if he has other motives to murder people, but it seems he enjoys hurting others.

[He glances to the side as if thinking back on events in the past. He may seem a little downcast.]

He is just someone you would want to avoid. Not many come out unharmed after running across him…

He-... consumes their fonons? Well damn, I wouldn't even know how to go about fighting something like that. [It makes him somewhat uneasy that this person is a Luke, but he hopes he never runs into it to find out personally what he's like]

Thanks for the warning, I'll be sure to keep my distance. ['Should be pretty obvious to tell this "Luke" from the rest if he's that bloodthirsty]

Guy was able to drive him away once. It was difficult for him though, I couldn’t imagine taking on that fiend. [He sighs and shakes his head.] …I just thought you should know about him.

[He had just begun to notice how upsetting talking about that Luke really was. The memories he brought back were a bit distressing. He tried pushing them aside so they wouldn’t get in the way of showing Guy around this place.]

We should look for another room… but like I said if you want a house instead of a room those are available as well.

[Guy catches on to Asch's discomfort with the subject and chooses not to press on it further so the original wouldn't dwell on it any longer. He knew little about this person, but that was no reason to be cold towards him]

Ha... It'd be strange living in a house with no one to share it with. It'd just feel empty, ya know? A room is fine for now, really.

I am not sure. I think some people liked living alone.

[He rubs his arm for a moment a little nervously, and then simply shrugs.]

Come on then. [He continues leading the way, looking for another door and soon he spots one.] Would you like to give that one a try?

Right... [Speaking of which, he was pleasantly surprised this Asch didn't prefer living alone. He truly was different from the one he knew (though "knew" might be jumping the gun).]

[And Guy continues following beside him, continually perplexed at the setup of this world. Who exactly was in charge of these establishments?!] Sure, why not? 'Guess I can always change my mind later.

I suppose.

[Once they are close to the door Asch stands aside with his arms crossed, waiting for Guy to check the status of this room. He had checked the first one for him, now it was Guy’s turn. After all the one looking for a room was Guy not him.]

[Guy caught the cue and let himself in, surveying the rather simplistic, empty-seeming room up and down. Definitely didn't feel like a place he could consider "home", but not much else did either... He should really find somewhere to buy clothes and food in this world next (if such places existed... maybe the people here all cultivated their food)]

[Finally, he turned to Asch with a small smile] I think this will be fine for the time being.

[He responded with his own smile. It was a reaction he had developed towards his own Guy’s smile. Spending so much time with him had may this one of his natural reactions. Although soon he realizes what he is doing and quickly tries to frown.]

Yes… [He felt once again embarrassed. He presses his lips shut, and looks at the floor.]

I guess you’ll be fine now… right?
