[sitting next to a window, reading something, looking the most calm and happy he's been in a long time]

... how interesting...

*takes a seat near him, glancing at the book.* What are you reading?

[embarrassed] Simply a fiction book.

Is it any good?

It's very interesting.

I haven't read too many books. They never managed to get me to learn everything I needed to enjoy them.

[carefully marks his spot] Some fiction books are very interesting to read, given the worlds they can create.

It sounds entertaining. That's something else I'll have work on at some point.

[not looking at her, nodding]

*notices this and leans closer, worried.* ...you alright, Asch?

A little distracted.

Oh. Did you want me to let you go back to reading?

[shakes his head]

*nods, smiling.* You been breathing okay?

Well enough. [stops, closes his eyes, and clears his throat] It isn't bad.

Alright! You really are getting better at breaking out of your training!

[smiles a little at her]

I bet in no time you won't have to worry about any of it.

I- I would hope so.

You've already come a long way from when we first met.

I have. [smiling]

I'm sure you'll go even farther, as long as you don't try moving furniture again.

[snorts] I should have noticed how old everything looked there.

Perhaps, but you're alright and that's all that matters.
