[Here, the newest Jade to the Dressing Room steps in... except, this one clearly isn't Jade. He's dressed much like a God-General, mostly black with blue highlights and designs. He also dons a cape and has a noticeable lack of glasses--replaced with a silver wreath about his head. He lacks the teasing smile that his clones doubtlessly would have, and his eyes were hauntingly empty. He seemed older than most, possibly in his early forties.]

[His only response to his new surroundings is to narrow his eyes and appear lost in thought.]

OOC: Here, have an AU!post-game!Jade. Have fun with him~

Also, NSFW.

Perhaps. Perhaps not. I don't see why it matters to you.

[He looked over the other, stare blank.] You're... Luke, aren't you? Or do you now go by Asch?

[neissouchou.livejournal.com]

I haven't seen a Jade like you. That's all.

...I'm Asch. Not Luke.

[nocturnediviner.livejournal.com]

Well... Just as you have a new name, so do I.

Nocturne. It's nice to meet you, Asch. [Ah, and it still doesn't sound like a compliment coming from Jade... Some things never change.]

[neissouchou.livejournal.com]

...Is that a requirement for becoming a God General?

[nocturnediviner.livejournal.com]

I'm not really one, per se... I just figured a fresh start would do me some good.

[neissouchou.livejournal.com]

...Why would you need a new start?

[nocturnediviner.livejournal.com]

Just a lot of things that have happened... It's really a long story.

[neissouchou.livejournal.com]

I probably know most of it, unless it's completely different from the Jade I know.

[nocturnediviner.livejournal.com]

... I would suspect it would be.

[neissouchou.livejournal.com]

...I'm guessing you won't tell me. All you Jades seem similar in that regard.

[nocturnediviner.livejournal.com]

... Perhaps someday. I have a feeling I will be here for a long, long time...

[neissouchou.livejournal.com]

I think all of us will be. There doesn't seem to be any way out or anything...

*brb, being bothered by all the shotas*

[nocturnediviner.livejournal.com]

... Lovely.

[He closed his eyes, looking very weary.] Very well... If this is my fate.

[neissouchou.livejournal.com]

It's not fate. At least, I don't think it is... I haven't done anything wrong, I should still be back with Jade and his Majesty and Master Saphir.

[nocturnediviner.livejournal.com]

... It appears you are from even a different universe than those I have met. This place...

[neissouchou.livejournal.com]

...This place keeps pulling people who are really different. I wish it would let us go home, but it just keeps us all trapped.

[nocturnediviner.livejournal.com]

Wonderful...

[Deep sigh.] I suppose I had start getting used to this place. Moping around does no one any good.

[neissouchou.livejournal.com]

You aren't really the kind to mope, though...

[nocturnediviner.livejournal.com]

I'm not, am I...

[As an observation:] I really am getting old. [He smiles somewhat.] Thank you for the chat. I should get some rest, soon. So should you. It's not healthy to stay up too late.

[neissouchou.livejournal.com]

...Do you need help finding a room? I don't mind showing you around.

[nocturnediviner.livejournal.com]

[He's growing fond of you, Asch. You're too cute for your own good.]

I wouldn't want to trouble you, but if you insist, then...

[neissouchou.livejournal.com]

It's not any trouble... It's not like I can get back or anything.

[nocturnediviner.livejournal.com]

Very true. ... Well, then. Lead away.

[neissouchou.livejournal.com]

Alright. [starts leading the way towards where he thinks there are still some empty rooms]

[nocturnediviner.livejournal.com]

[He follows behind him, musing to himself on how mature he seemed, even at such a young age. Thus was the result of not only being a noble with great responsibility, but having been ripped away from his home.]

Tell me, how old are you?
