[Sitting on a bench to enjoy the pleasant weather the Dressing room has been having, Luke is lightly tapping a pen against his cheek, thinking. His diary was sitting on his lap.]

Man...wonder how everyone else is doing back home.

Oh, I'm sure it would. [Luke, he doesn't know when to shut up]

[ Clearly not. ] Are you mocking me, replica?

How you find it fun to torment others? Maybe.

It isn't "others" I find delight in tormenting, only replicas.

Maybe I can understand if its your own replica, but doing this for fun? Towards other replicas?

You're still a replica of myself or another version, if you prefer to think of it as such. Replicas are property and nothing more.

Maybe in your world, but not mine.

We are in neither so who is to say what is right and what is wrong?

...And this is all you ever do now? Torment all the replicas? What a life. [Er Luke, maaaybe you're going at it a bit too far but he can't seem to shut up ]

[ Asch had calmed down juuust a bit, but Luke's words doubled his previous anger. He thrusts the sword at him ...and misses by mere centimeters on purpose. ] No. You could call it my hobby.

...[uhh inching away from sword] And what about Natalia?

[ Leaves his sword where it is, allowing Luke to put some space between it and him. ] What of her?

...I don't know, figure you and her...I mean you got everything back and...[words, Luke fails at saying stuff]

Our engagement still stands, if that is what you are trying to articulate.

...[looks away]

[ Reaches out with his free hand, turning Luke's head to face him. ] Why did you bring up Natalia?

...Just wondering what would Natalia think about this if she saw you doing this. Does she even know what you do with your own replica?

Do you believe the princess of Kimlasca would not be aware of the replicas being auctioned off? That she wouldn't know the fate of a person she believed to be me for years on end?

...He is a slave but...you treat yours differently, I think.

Oh? What do you know of how I treat my replica?

...just a feeling.

[ Grips his face tighter. ] What are you implying by saying that?

[squints, ow] N-Nothing...

Then learn to keep your mouth shut, dreck.

[...uh-huh, just going to keep note of Asch's reaction then] ...
