[Welcome, all bystanders. You are a part of the lucky few to watch a Luke faceplant the grou-- no, wait, that probably happens enough anyway.]
[The first thing you'll probably note is his outfit; namely, it resembles the uniform of the Malkuth Imperial Forces, though not quite entirely so...]
[The second is that he's more or less calm. Sort of.]
How did... I've been thrown a few pretty weird places before while practicing, but what the hell...? Don't tell me I messed up that badly...
...Crap. He's going to kill me for getting lost again, isn't he.
[For those who look out for hair lengths, his is shorter than long-haired Luke's would be, but longer than short-haired Luke's, falling to about mid-shoulderblade.]
[[OOC: Newb here, testing out a... Luke. Why is it that everyone I toss into DRs is a common muse choice?
A-anyways, despite having worked out the basics of this verse since about... late 08, there's still a few kinks to be ironed out; if there's inconsistencies, please let me know! I look forward to playing with everyone!]]

Playing dress up and losing your way? I thought multi-tasking was a feat beyond your capabilities.
[ ooc: Hello! No worries about Luke being 'common; it happens with main characters. XD Hope you have fun with us! :'D ]
Le html fail, you saw nothing of it.
You don't have to be such an ass, Luke. Just because I'm not officially part of the military doesn't mean that I'm playing dress up. [GOING TO TOTALLY IGNORE THAT LAST JAB. For now. Priorities, he has... some.]
Anyways, where the hell is this?
And I didn't, thanks to slowtifications. 8Db
There could be a very good reason for the higher-ups not admitting someone such as yourself into their ranks, the least of which being concern for their mental wellbeing.
[ And what did you just call him? Nobody outside of family has referred to him by that name in years. Congrats on SHOCKING HIM INTO SILENCE. ]
...I might deign to tell you if you explain yourself first.
Mixed blessings! 8Db
[He starts off coherently enough, at least, though you get a weird look for that.]
What's there to explain?
Indeed! It'll probably show up some time later today or tomorrow. <<;
[ This could be... fun, in addition to being informative; this is one of the few times he isn't certain on where or when someone came from. ]
Everything. Consider this an interrogation. We can start with name, division, and rank, if they bothered to give you one.
Probably. =w= Seems like mine have died too now.
[Blank stare. His original's gone insane.]
...But we've already met, Luke fon Fabre. We already know practically anything that's 'absolutely neccessary' to know about each other, so why-
Oh, hell. I guess I'll indulge you if it'll make you make sense.
Lucian Balfour-Curtiss; Malkuth Imperial Forces, Third Division... cadet. Because technically, I can't have an actual rank.
It's contagious or something. D;
[ Ah, there's that good old, classic replica face. Perfectly designed to catch flies and imitate a goldfish. Yet he can't even enjoy it when 'Luke' spits his last name. And pay no mind to the silver things bristling behind him. ]
Being a part of Malkuth, fine. Using that variant for a first name, I can understand. It makes sense. But CURTISS?! Where the hell do you get off taking that bastard's name?!
Ffff LJ wooork. For once in your life. :(
When we got to Grand Chokmah, obviously I couldn't really be handed off to just any family to be raised, so Peony had this brilliant idea to have Jade 'adopt' me, and so here I am: Lucian Balfour-Curtiss. Or that's the gist of things I can remember plus what people have told me.
Though I usually go by Luke anyway. It confuses more people. [Shit-eating grin, aw yeah.]
2/2
Are those wings?!
It haaaaates us. D:
[ Control thine self, Asch. Control. Breathe. In, out, in, out. Asch rubs at his temples whilst processing this latest development, though it's not bound to help much when he's gnashing his teeth together as he glances back over a shoulder, then glares. ]
...no. They're the latest trend in portable pillows. What the hell else would they be, you moron?!
It is a chronic loathing then. :( Why every month or so LJ?
[Bristles.]
Your what, exactly? I don't remember belonging to anyone! Just because I'm a replica...! And it isn't as if he's treated me badly!
A practical joke the Fon Master Guardian would have played on you or something; some sort of costume plus adhesive gone bad- how the hell should I know?! It's not like people usually walk around with wings!
lmao that's what happens when I try rping at stupid hours. I miss complete words. |D;;;
[ The more he yells, the more a ruckus his wings make. ]
Not a lot of people go around with the same face, either, yet here we are! But just to clarify for your sake, they are indeed real!
lmao I know I've garbled entire sentences before so /pats
It's not like he wanted to take me! [Or at least, not at first... he hopes. He hopes he's not just a responsibility to the Necromancer. Some of the ...devotion that canon Luke had for Van was instead transferred to Jade in his verse, and Jade's just too damn hard to read for a child, though he does it better than canon!Luke does.] I know he talked with you or something before taking me to Malkuth!
And since when have you had wings anyway?! Why are you making no sense?!
My longest combo was something like half a dozen contradictions in ten tags. 8D;
Then he shouldn't have! Mother-- [ Just mentioning her is causes his throat to constrict and render him unable to continue momentarily. When he does, they're all but spit out in a bid to finish what he has to say. ] She would have welcomed you with open arms, likely more so than for a child who needed to die for the world's "unprecedented prosperity"!
It's none of your damn business! The only thing you need to know is that I'm not the original you're familiar with!
IN WHICH I AM FAIL AT RESPONDING ON TIME 8|a;;
She- maybe- Duchess Fabre may have, I don't know, but what of the others of the house? And if she would've cared that much for me, for a replica of her son, then why wouldn't she care just as much for Lu- you?! Don't be so damn fatalistic; you- Luke didn't die! Not at Akzeriuth!
[Sags and deflates a bit. He got along somewhat better with his original than with this one. Somewhat.]
[The yelling's similar though.] I... yeah, I can... see that.
...Should I not call you Luke then?
THAT IS A-OKAY! we're all late to the party 8'Db
[ Seeing the replica wilt causes him to look away, still huffing with agitation, though lacking his words lack the malice they had previously. ] ...no. It's Asch now. Has been for eight years or so.
More importantly, your original failed to die at Akzeriuth too?
no subject
Are you alright?
1/2
[Takes the offered hand and pulls himself up.]
Y-yeah, I'm perfectly alright! Takes more than that to get me down!
no subject
...Guy Cecil?
Did you, um- no, that's stupid. [Okay, let's try that again.]
I could've sworn you were taller.
no subject
...wait, you know him? Guy blinks once before giving the redhead a small grin. ]
How do you know my name? [ Also not commenting on the height thing. He's going to hit his growth spurt one day. ]
no subject
We, ah, met when the Malkuth diplomatic mission reached Baticul...? You're one of the servants in the Fabre Manor, aren't you?
We've been part of the same company for a while now, so why wouldn't I know your name?
no subject
You also get the most questioning look ever, Guy has no idea what you're talking about.]
Sorry, I don't know anything about a diplomatic mission or who you even are. [ Also not a servant anymore, hurray! ]
no subject
[Yeah, that's going to happen a lot, isn't it.]
Oh, um... Sorry, you just had the same name...
Lucian Balfour-Curtiss, Malkuth Imperial Forces, Third Division. Ahehehe, nice to meet you, I guess? [Rubs the back of his neck sheepishly.] Sorry for the confusion.
no subject
Don't worry about it. [ Flashes the other his usual grin. ] Nice to meet you too, Sir. And don't worry about it, mistakes happen. [ Your last name though... Nah, can't be. ]
no subject
Ah, you don't need to be so formal with me! Sir's sort of stuffy... [Grins back. Whoever the kid was, he sure acted a lot like the Guy he knew. In fact...] I- um, would you happen to have any family or something? Cause there's a really big resemblence...
[Derp doesn't know any better. orz]
no subject
Lucian it is. [ Stop being so easy to talk to, Lucian, you make Guy relax a bit. ] No, I don't have any family left. [ Alert alert wrong topic. How to distract redhead? ]
Damn you LJ, ate my reply.
No?- oh, left. ... [Open mouth. Insert foot.] Sorry, that... probably hit a nerve, huh? [Does not fidget. Damn this is awkward. How did he get himself into this. Jade wouldn't have. In fact, he'd be laughing right now. Silently. Jerk.]
[How to change subject.]
So! That aside, I don't suppose you could tell me where we are right now? I seem to have gotten... a little lost. Maybe more than a little- I don't recognize this place at all.
[Redhead: can be distracted with talk of swordplay. He'd love to show you/try out the stuff he made up by not following either Sigmund or Albert style.
It comes with bad habits that neither Jade nor Frings have been able to stamp out of him, and that makes Peony snicker and tell him he'll get it someday.]Frank probably thought that it was delicious. :>
No, it's okay. [Forces a bright grin and waves it off. Don't look like a kicked puppy, you remind him of a certain red haired child he once knew.
And Jade is the biggest jerk known to mankind, how did you manage to survive under his iron fist for so long?]
This is... well, Anise said that this place doesn't appear to be on Auldrant anymore. I'm still not sure if I should believe it...
[
Oh Lucian, forever do your own thing if it even frustrates Jade. It will people bow to you and give you flowers and flowers are pretty.Duly noted, will ask about if distraction is needed again.]no subject
Having fun Luke~? If you don't mind me asking, just who is this mystery person that may or may not have your life?
(ooc: Welcome to Abyss Dressing~! I hope you have lots of fun here♥)
no subject
Oh! Fon Master Guardian, you've... hit a growth spurt. [Why is he only three inches taller than you.]
no subject
That's what happens when people grow up Luke♥ Cute outfit you have going, trying to match with the Colonel~?
no subject
You grew up a lot in a short amount of time. [why is he shooort.]
no subject
Uniform? Since when did you join the Malkuth military? Also I'm currently 18 so that's why I 'grew up so fast'~♥
[Wear heels, they make you taller |Db ]
no subject
...And how are you 18? You were 13 not ten minutes ago!
[butbut they're girly! and they're hard to walk in.]
no subject
Since you were four? What were you doing in Malkuth then? What happened to you being in Baticul?
I aged naturally we just happen to be in a place that takes people from different times and dimensions...
[So you're saying you tried them on before?]
no subject
Though... different times and dimensions? If that's the truth, then... Can Hyperresonance do that?
...Crap. [He's not getting home easy, is he.]
[well, see, there was an incident with him and Nephry's closet...]
no subject
Really...Wait, Luke? Are you talking about Asch? Then what's your name?
As for Hyperresonance transporting people as such, I'm not too sure it could traverse is such a way. At least to here that is. That would mean that I would somehow have to be a 7th fonist and I'm rather sure I'm not. As far as I know there is no other explanation other than this place being a nexus of sorts that we can't escape from until it decides to let us go.
[Anise would have paid gald to see that.]
no subject
Asch...? I'm talking about Luke fon Fabre, of course. I'm Lucian. But I go by Luke a lot of the time anyway.
But the Order has a lot of Oracle Knights that are Seventh Fonists, doesn't it? What if you got caught up in an accidental one without realizing it?
[Gasp, that must mean she really wants to see it if she's willing to part with her precious Gald.]
;-; I'm so sorry, I meant to reply before now
Even though the order may have a few Oracle Knights that are Seventh Fonist, I would have to be in the middle of a battle between them or in one's way in the training ground to have something so extreme happen to me. I was doing office work before I found myself here.
[|Db indeed she does]
No problem, no problem! I wouldn't've been able to reply anyway. >>;;
Peony- uh, the Emperor said the story was basically that Jade thought it'd be funny if I ended up having a nickname that, well, Luke. [Shrug.] This was after he warmed up to the idea of taking me in, so...
Huh, that's... weird. [He says this bluntly, drawing himself up a little more and crossing his arms over his chest.] Does this place have a name?
[w-well you still don't get to see. unless the mun decides to write that drabble and toss it up with the rest whenever.]
|D -Is glad it wasn't too bad then♥- Is everything ok?
I wouldn't put it past both of them to think up such a thing~
I do agree with that statement, it is odd to be doing one thing then finding yourself in a strange place the next. It's unsettling to say the least. As for a name, I have not heard or seen one yet.
[Mun and I would enjoy it a lot if she did~♥]
I'm fine! Just, senior year and swamped with forms.
Yeah... weird, right... [Thinking. Does she know that he can create his own hyperresonances...? She is from the future, but alternate realities and all...] Well, that's great. Isn't there anyone who's native to this place...? Or wait- don't tell me. They're all monsters or don't speak our language or something.
Oooohhh, you will def have your hands full. Good luck~!
No, there are no natives or monsters for all I know unless you consider some people to be like that but that's a different story~ Only people from our world, sometimes even multiples of them.
