[Susanne looks tired and bit stressed. And no wonder, she's pretty lost and confused. What is this place? Where are her sons? Her husband? The servants?]

[After a moment she stops, breathing heavily and lowering herself carefully onto a bench. She clasps her hands together in her lap, trying not to worry but failing. She already feels ill, but she can't afford to be sick at a time like this. With her two boys off saving the world, and Herzorg and her brother working so hard for peace with Malkuth, it's absolutely shameful that she can't do more.]

[Just as soon as she catches her breath she'll figure out what's going on.]

BEST EVER.

[The moment Asch sees Susanne put a hand to her head, he's there to support her, kneeling down and putting a gentle hand on her arm. It's hard to mask the concern that surfaced onto his face in that instant, and already Asch regrets telling her everything at once. Asch hates this place for forcing itself and its insanity on his ailing mother, but at least there are more people here to care for her than assault her. That's one of the benefits, he admits.

He stays kneeling by he side, though his hand drops somewhat, as his eyes look away from hers. Up goes the mask, the wall, and he answers curtly, though vaguely.]

...Quite some time. I've encountered the r--...Luke many times. All varying. Natalia is here as well.

[He makes a face again. The last he's seen of Natalia, was when his inhibitions were tossed aside, and he kissed and promised to marry her...again. A promise he couldn't keep, as much as he hated admitting it.]

I can't even imagine what costumes they'd get, the most hideous

[Susanne covers Asch's hand with her own, nodding a little uncertainly. To say it's a lot to process is too much of an understatement, but while she may be sick she's also a noble. She keeps her composure remarkably well, despite her shock. She is a bit paler, and visibly unsure, but she rallies well enough, smiling at Asch's answer.]

They must be very happy to see you, sweetie. [The endearment comes with another light touch on Asch's shoulder, reassuring.]

[His father gets that cold distant aloofness when something is bothering him, as well. She doesn't say that, though.]

I will have to catch up with Natalia when I see her.

I demand fancy clothes for everyone. Asch needs a better costume, especially. >:\

[Happy to see him? Hmph, more like astounded, most of them. He was supposedly dead, after all, but that's a fact he'll keep to himself for as long as possible. There's no way he'd ever tell his mother that he ended up dying in her future. It would completely break her. Natalia alone had been difficult to console, but Susanne? ...No. He wouldn't do that to her. It was hard enough knowing she had to find out back home in Auldrant.

Asch makes a low noncommittal sound as he glances away absently. He never thought much of those people other than Natalia and Guy - even if the latter was so standoffish now. They were never his friends, just allies mostly, ones who shared a common goal half the time.]

As far as I know, Natalia has a room in the main hotel that's here. I have a room there myself. ...I can find a more suitable place for you to stay, mother, if that's necessary. Many things here are free of charge.
