[follow the trail of blood to a new Asch. follow and realize this Asch is probably very close to death. he's beaten up, his limbs hanging awkwardly, and his breathing sounds odd. he's whispering something, but it's pretty garbled given his mouth is swollen and he seems to be missing a few teeth]

[snorts, starting to shift to get up]

H-hey, don't push yourself! [Places a hand on his shoulder to stop him, not forcefully but not submissively either]

Go bug the dreck.

[Oh, was that what this was about?]

I'm not all that sure where the Luke I know is, but I'm pretty damn sure this is more important anyhow. Do you have a problem with it?

[glares at him] What the hell are you doing, anyway?

Making sure you don't die, for starters.

[snorts] Make your life complete if I did.

H-hey-... [Guy sighed. He deserved that. And he knew he was burying his own hole here, but he couldn't stop just yet with that nonsense in the original's head]

Do you honestly believe I still think that way after I dragged you in here?

And when I fall asleep?

I'll tuck you in, of course~

[hand instantly falls to his side, where his sword should be]

[Chuckles a bit] Come on, Asch, I was only kidding!

[Straightens himself up seriously] I promise you, I have no intention of ending your life.

[glaring, watching him warily]

This is the first time we've met. You have nothing to do with my past and I have no grudges against you. [Or maybe this Asch didn't know that yet?]

Anyways, you're still covered in blood. Would you like a change of clothing? [Well, Guy was covered in it now too, but he'd get to that later...]

[starts to get up, then crumples back down, weak and wracked with pain]

(Stubborn as always...) You're only going to hurt yourself like that. Just wait until you heal a little more before you try anything, but I'm not going to let you go off on your own when you can't even take care of yourself. [Motherly Guy at work. You can't oppose him now]

[he can try. oh, he can try] I can't stay here.

Oh really? Where were you planning to go in that shape then?

[coughs, curling up in pain] Away.

A-Asch! [Comes to his side, but he's unsure how to restrain him without hurting his still damaged figure] I don't want to force you here, but at least reconsider. Do you even know where you are?

[Big sigh] Stop pushing yourself. Just tell me what you need.

I need to get away. I need to kill him. I- [bolts up] Mother!

[Braces his shoulders to prevent further movement] Asch, calm down! What are you talking about?!

Van isn't here. If you were in Auldrant before now, there's nothing you can do about it now.

Let go of me!

[Stern but not entirely unyielding] Will you calm down if I do?

[shifts, trying to punch him]
