... [ ohhay, guess who woke up this afternoon with boybits again? he'd be more excited if he weren't still mildly phobic of everything. he pointedly takes the shirt he'd taken to sleeping in OFF, and is thusly wandering around with a coat around his shoulders but not fully on, his oversized navy blue pajama pants the only other article of clothing on his person. ...thusly, he's barefoot, shirtless, and wearing a coat incorrectly. but damn is he ever happy to be a boy again. he also appears to be looking for something. or as it were, someone. ]

[ frowns slightly, glancing at her stomach for a moment ] ... Which kid?

*scrunches up her nose, tugging her coat tighter.* The little Asch we look after.

[ scratches at the back of his neck ] If he'll let me, I'll sure as hell try. I mean, I'm bad at kids, so... ...I'll get Asch to help me, he's got two of them.

Well, it might be better to wait until you, we maybe, go back. Then you wouldn't have to worry about it at all. He could go to the manor...

... Would that be okay? I mean, isn't he one of the ones that's convinced Mom and Dad didn't want him?

That's why I think it would be a good idea. She'd be glad to have the chance to be with him when he's little, I'm sure. And he could see that they do still love him...

... 's true. That... would require you to come with us, though. I'm not gonna take him if you don't come with, on the chance he doesn't acclimate.

I know. I wouldn't leave him outright. Not after telling him we'd be there. But we'd stay somewhere else, maybe outside of the towns.

[ :x Bad girl. ]

... What do you have against Baticul?

...I've got nothing against the place.

[ xD ]

... Then what's the reason you won't stay there? Mom would be thrilled.

N-no.. no, she wouldn't.

... There's a lot more to this than what I'm understanding, isn't there.

Not really. Just.. I saw one of her here. And I don't want to see her again.

... [ isn't entirely sure how to take that ]

... *she's not about to elaborate, taking a step back and not looking at him.* So.. if that's fine with you...

... [ and he's not about to pry. his hands go in his pockets and he scuffs his shoe on the ground awkwardly ] I'll talk to Asch, I'm not confident in saying yes until I'm sure he can help me.

'kay. Like I said, it can wait.. I just need a short while.

... 'Kay.

Thanks, Luke. *gives him a strained smile, hesitating.*

... [ sets the cake aside and reaches out to her ]

*shies slightly then stops.* ...?

... [ frowns and takes her hand, running his thumb over her knuckles ] You know, you rival Asch when you get all secretive like this.

..I'm not being secretive. *tightens her hold on his hand.* Just.. never really thought about leaving here.

Sure you aren't. [ lets her ] ...You don't have to.
