[...well, look who it is. outside, in the snow, stands an Asch who looks a looooot like Metalhead. he's just staring up at the sky, hand held out to catch the tiny snowflakes, a serene look on his face ~~for once~~. ask him where he's been, I know you're just dying to find out. who knows, maybe he'll answer.]

((idk. i felt like bringing him back.))

[why you do this to him, Luke.]

[ Atonement for his sins? ...not that it works. As it's Luke who gets a thankfully small thing of wet slush pressed into her chest, much to her surprise. ] Atta --ta-ta-ta-that's cold!

[Asch's lips twitch up into a small smile, as he tries to stifle the chuckle that's threatening to come out]

[ Luke doesn't even notice with trying to get the snow off before her munchkin flops into her chest. ]

[he lets out a small snort, before he covers his mouth with his hand]

N-not funny! [ Oh but it is; even Aidan thinks so, beaming up at them. ]

S-sorry.

I bet you are.

No, really. I am.

Bah! Kids are a pain. Even if they are cute.

...Mm.

...ever think about having kids, Asch?

No. I wouldn't be much of a parent.

I don't think that's true! You understand what it's like to be a child with troubled parents, so you'd probably be good at not making the same mistakes.

I still don't think I'm capable of being able to... love a child, and care for one.

You never know. It used to be that I thought there would never be a day when we could have a civil conversation.

...But that's different. We're talking about kids.

Maybe. Still, the basic idea is the same: don't say you can't until you've tried!

But what if I fuck it up?

You dust your ass off, figure out where you mess up, and try again.

I don't think it's that easy when you're taking care of a child.

[ Frowns, watching her own start to doze. ] I guess it's not. But there isn't a whole lot else you can do.

Anyway, I've left a pretty bad impression on everyone here; I doubt anyone else would let me take care of a kid.

Or... love me enough to have one with me.

Doubt that everyone here feels you're beyond redemption. Most of the friends I've made are pretty forgiving, you just have to work at it.

...you're welcome to visit Aidan and me whenever you want.

That's... really nice of you to say that. But let's face it. I was a... a monster.

[he looks at Luke, curiously] ...What would your Asch say about me being near the both of you?
