Morning after-- Christmas edition

[carricklysmic]

I'M FAR TOO TIRED FOR A DECENT EXPLANATION, WILL COME BACK LATER TO MAKE THIS A CUTE POST.


But hey, after a long and nice party, you get to wake up to find presents under the tree!

...

Of course, who you woke up with is important too, isn't it?

No, I'm not making any troll faces again.


* Presents can be both from people not here, or wait til someone gives you one.
* Waking up with someone isn't necessarily bad, isn't it? (and I'm looking at you, KH AU)
* COME ON, I'M TOO SLEEPY TO MAKE ANY SENSE, I NEED A DECENT NIGHT OF SLEEP.

[He's forcing him, isn't he? Maybe he was being selfish, having him back. What if Asch doesn't want to be here...?

When he discovered that they shared a heart, he was happy. He was happy because his brother was alive, he knew he was alive...

But it's been seven years. Asch said so. And he just can't help but do the things they did seven years ago.

Sigh, he was a mess...]

[gotkeylater]

[This all had been a stupid idea, hadn't it? He wasn't the same boy that had left this place seven years ago.

It was stupid thinking that he could just come back and make everything be normal like it used to.

Stupid stupid stupid.

Sits on the bed, his back still facing Luke.]

[gotkeyfirst]

[Hears him moving....]

...I'm sorry. I keep doing things I shouldn't... things that are over for you. Please don't leave. Mother and Father will be very sad if you do...

[gotkeylater]

[Stands... Walks a few steps towards the door....

And then more steps, this time getting closer, and finally he sits on Luke's bed, still not facing him.]

I'm not leaving.

[gotkeyfirst]

Thank you for staying...

[Now keep quiet. Maybe when Mother wakes up and comes here for them, Asch will feel better.]

[gotkeylater]

[He keeps silent for a while too, before finally speaking up.]

I'm sorry.

[gotkeyfirst]

[...uh?

Looks over his shoulder.]

What for?

[gotkeylater]

[Quiet, his back is still very very tense.]

Being close to someone else, touching or being touched. It was a long time without those things.

Just hating everyone. Hating the Score and those who followed it, hating Van... And being angry at you because you were going wrong, you were becoming...

[Trails off, the "selfish like me" is unsaid.]

I was "nothing" for too long, I'm not used to being "Asch".

[Well done, Asch, it only took you like. Months to talk about this.]

[gotkeyfirst]

[Sits, looks at his back...]

I... I hated everyone too. Mother for giving up on you, Father and Uncle for locking me up in this mansion. I hated you...

I hated you for leaving me alone. Because I knew you were alive. I knew your tomb was empty... and everyone kept telling me you died.

I hated them all so much I stopped caring about them. If they didn't understand me, why should I understand them? Why listen to them...?

[Tries to touch him, but stops.]

I didn't want you to hate me. I just wanted you back.

[gotkeylater]

[Nods...]

I'm just... Sorry for no longer being the brother you wanted to see.

It's just that.

[gotkeyfirst]

Don't be stupid!!

[Jumps to his feet (yes, on the bed) looking at him.]

You're my brother, the you who is sitting right here, right now on my bed! It could be another seven years, or twenty or a thousand, it wouldn't matter to me at all!

No matter if you're different from what you were before... we're the same in here [touches his own chest...].

You're Asch. It doesn't matter if you were gone, or if you don't want me to touch you again or if you had another face or anything! It's... it's the inside that counts for me. My heart tells me it's you...

That's all I need.

[gotkeylater]

[Quiet, very quiet.]

You're standing on the bed.

[H-HE DOESN'T KNOW HOW TO ANSWER TO THAT OKAY.]

[gotkeyfirst]

It's my bed and I don't have shoes right now!

[gotkeylater]

You could fall down and crack open your skull and die like an idiot.

[gotkeyfirst]

[...kicks him]

[gotkeylater]

[Takes the kick LIKE A MAN.]

Instead of being there you could come down and sit here.

Or maybe you'd rather keep on being very stupid.

[gotkeyfirst]

[..........................................kicks him again.


And then sits with him.]

[gotkeylater]

[Looks at him... Then back to the wall in front of them.]

I'll try.

I want to feel like I used to. I want to be able to accept your feelings... Everyone's feelings like I used to.

[Please, remember that he was very tsun even when you were kids, Luke xD]

[gotkeyfirst]

[He knows, he doesn't care. He wants Asch to be happy-- even if it's in an Asch-y way.]

You will, don't push yourself. As long as you remember we want you here with us.

[...takes his hand...]

With me.

[gotkeylater]

[Looks at the hands, and then at Luke... Nods.]

I'm still going to call you an idiot when you behave like one. I don't care if you get angry, clearly you need someone to get you back in track.

I slacked off enough on that job.

[BestWorst big brother. Yep.]

[gotkeyfirst]

Yeah, well, see if I care. You'll need more than that to get me angry.

[He was trained by Riku. And then travelled with Jade. You're not even close to the concept of obnoxious he has thanks to those two.]

[gotkeylater]

That's you being stupid again.

If I just wanted to get you angry, I'd do better than just calling you names.

[gotkeyfirst]

You're obnoxious.

[Pulls his to bed, and no, he is not giving a damn. He wants to cuddle.]

[gotkeylater]

That one must run in the genes.

[He's not even trying to resist the pulling xD]

[gotkeyfirst]

You got the worst part.

[Unstoppable cuddle.]
