[ Who indeed. Given that this wasn't the appropriate area for setting up a sales stand in the first place, an unmonitored dessert strikes Asch as being highly unusual even for the nexus. ]

[ He slows to a halt several feet away from the aforementioned table to give the set-up not a once-over, but more like a ten-over. Could it be poisonous? A monster lying in wait? ]

[ The former seemed more likely than the latter, but he wouldn't put it past this place. It's easy for him to reach a quick decision given the derptastic mentality of most inhabitants here. Out comes his sword. ]

[ PREPARE TO EAT RENDING SABER, CAKE ]

[Aw, Asch, he worked really hard on that cake! Well, now there is exploded cake bits all over the place...]

[...and a cage falling down over Asch.]

[ Then he shouldn't have left it sitting there all suspicious like! ]

[ ...and apparently Asch shouldn't have gotten so close. gdit all. This face forever, Luke. ]

[THUMP!]

[Luke landed on top of the cage a moment later, leaning down with a sly little grin on his face.]

Well, well... this wasn't intended to be a bird cage.

[ This is what he gets for being on edge all the time. Now he's going to have to take another damn shower to get all this icing out of his hai-- what was that noise? ]

What the hell?!

[ Suddenly, dreck face! Asch stumbles backward into the far side's bars, injury to his wings avoided only by sheer luck of his each feathered appendage fitting nicely between the metal. ]

LUKE!

[Luke just grinned broadly, almost looking like Gin as he gave Asch a friendly little wave.]

Hello~!

[And quit looking up his hakama, Asch.]

[ Boy, if he could punch you in the face right now... ]

Get your ass down from there and let me out!

[ There seriously isn't enough room in this damn cage for both him and the table, plus his patience is dropping faster than Luke can Sonido. Just in case the order wasn't clear enough, Asch throws in a few kicks for good measure. ]

[Quit kicking the ~~door~~ cage, Asch. Luke just chuckled, sitting down on top of the cage.]

I don't know. Aren't birds supposed to sing when they're in cages?

[ Shut up. He's pretending it's your face so he won't feel like inflicting damage upon the real thing later. ]

One, I don't sing. Two, I'm not a damn bird! Three, what are you doing with this idiotic contraption!

[ While Asch realizes banging on the bars is futile, it's the only way he can think of to vent. And does he ever need to vent if this is how Luke treats his friends. ]

Aw, but I always wondered how sexy your voice would sound singing.

[Yes, he said that. He pauses to let that sink in, leaning back and swinging his legs back and forth.]

Why else would I have a cage? I'm hunting for specimens, of course.

[ As expected, it takes that extra moment for Asch to process the innuendo and respond with an appropriately indignant sputter. One day he would learn. Maybe. He's thankful for the subject change anyway. ]

We've been over this before! You keep using people indiscriminately and someone will retaliate in kind. Arrancar or not, you won't be immune to everything.

No, but I'm immune to most things~

[He reached over, opening a small hatch on the cage, before swinging himself inside. Uh oh, Asch... alone in a cage with a mad replica.]

Besides~ I know how to handle myself~

I know you're well aware that isn't the point I'm trying to make!

[ In his opinion, there are some things that shouldn't need to be voiced, such as his feelings on using people they know for experimentation purposes. And per usual, reasoning with Luke is proving difficult. Mad Asch versus mad replica: who will win? ]

What are you doing?

[Ah, but Luke is the fun kind of mad. The kind of crazy that would just strut up to a pissed off winged original and start kissing him like they were in the middle of some wild and crazy sex.]

[He backed off quickly, at least, casually draping his arms over Asch's shoulders.]

Isn't it obvious? I missed you.

[ That... is not the worst kind of mad Asch has had to deal with, though it throws him for a loop almost as much as Van or Mohs' brand of crazy would. It really had been a good while since he'd had consistent company, and that led to Asch attempting to reacclimate himself towards being impersonal under the pretense of sparing everyone unnecessary pain. ]

[ Meaning a good many feathers join the cake carnage on the ground while Asch does a lovely impression of a statue. ]

... S-so I gathered.

[Luke let out an amused laugh, grinning broadly at Asch.]

Aw, are you blushing for me? How adorable~

Would you shut up?!

[ Because he knows it's not going to do Luke any harm, Asch shoves a hand in the fraccion's face and uses him to make a mad scramble for the exit. THE GREAT ASCH ESCAPE HAS BEGUN ]

[Oh no you don't; there's a cake smeared table here, and Luke's going to make use of it. He grabbed Asch as he tried to get out, thumping him stomach first onto the table.]

Mm... I always love seeing you from this angle~

[He's teasing, but Asch doesn't need to know that.]

[ Asch let out a choice word of profanity as freedom slipped from his grasp and he met instead with the splintered hole he had created via stabbing. It didn't hurt ~~much~~ though it did knock the wind out of him, meaning Luke got a doubly heated glare for his remark. Oh how he loathed that attitude some days. Other days he relished it, but this wasn't one of them. ]

[Luke met that glare with a self satisfied smirk, before his expression softened. He leaned over, wrapping his arms around Asch and resting his head between his shoulder blades. It was... rather suggestive, considering his crotch was pressed up against his ass, but that clearly wasn't his goal this time.]

...I really did miss you.

[ For a scant couple seconds Asch tensed, muscles coil in preparation to flee should Luke be too, erm, feisty. When it was clear that wasn't the current goal, he finally allowed himself to relax, letting his forehead thunk into the tabletop with a sigh. ]

If you wished to see me, all you had to do was visit.

[ He can tease too, you know. ]

You know it's not always that simple.

[Yes, but he's better at it... and in a better position to do it. In fact, he spies a little bit of cake on your neck that's getting licked up with his tongue. <3]

Mm... I went through so much trouble to bake that right...
