... [ 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. ]

... 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.

Then what am I being secretive about?

...I don't want to lose you.

Obviously something happened. There's got to be a reason you wouldn't want to see mom again-- unless we're a lot more different than I thought.

... We'll come up with something.

She was more.. disturbed by me and everything, I think. I don't want to go through that again.

... *nods.*

... The vampire thing, you mean?

No. Never got to that point. Just about me being a girl and engaged to Asch. *visibly becomes more dejected with every word, growing quieter.*

... That doesn't-- ... [ frowns ]

Dunno. But I don't want to see any version of her..

... [ well now he's kind of terrified of bringing Ana home to her, but he's not about to mention that ]

I'd love to see her again, but every time I start to get comfortable with how things are, it seems like something upsets that. And I won't be able to take that once Aidan is born. I need to be able to take care of him.

...Yeah.

... *she has the feeling she's upset him, so he gets clung to about now.*

... [ puts am arm carefully around her waist and rests his chin on her shoulder again ]
