[ From one of the many hallways comes the sound of a hollow object smacking into something. Repeatedly. Turns out Asch is strolling along, bouncing a ping pong ball off his forehead, of all things, looking more than a little agitated with something or someone. ]

[ Quirks an eyebrow at the protest. ] You are as needy as another Luke I know.

I'm just not used to certain... things. That's all.

You will encounter that problem a lot then.

[Grumbles, folding his arms] ...

[ Smirks, taking out the ping pong ball and continuing down the hall. ]

[Opens his mouth, taking a slight step towards him, then stops and rubs his arms] Be careful.

[ Pausing, glancing back at him with a questioning look. ] It is in my nature to be careful.

[Not looking at him, but next to him] ...

[ Follows his gaze to the spot beside him, then looks back to Luke. ] What is it?

... just a... something. It won't hurt you.

..something. Hmph. I would not recommend it to try.

... [raises his camera, carefully snapping a picture] ...

[ His hand goes to his sword when the shutter goes off. ]

... calm down, wingy. Just a picture.

[ Scoffs at him. "Wingy"? Since when did people give him nicknames? ] A picture for what?

The whatever it is next to you. Might be yours, might be showing something here, may just be someone dead going about what was his or her life. Dunno.

I understand that it could be a person who has passed on, but what do you mean by 'might be yours'?

Someone you know that attached his or herself to you.

[ Crosses his arms. ] I know no one who has died that would wish to stick to me like glue.

[shrugs, looking a lot calmer now] Whatever.

[ Notes the change in expression and turns to leave. ] Are you so frightened by something intangible?

... I can't see it. Most the time I just feel it. And it's uncomfortable, like being shut into a huge walk-in freezer and someone's shoving ice under your skin.

...an interesting and colorful description. So that fontech- [ Indicates the camera. ] -is the only way for you to see them?

Yeah. I'm going to go develop these. See what's on the film.

[ Nods to him. ] It is likely I will see you again.
