✯ Alternate Universe Session ✯ [Action for house/Written]

[byakkoyagirl]

[This morning when Paprika woke up, she was not welcomed to the comfortable feeling of her bed, the light buzz of an alarm clock ringing at 6am and the generally feeling someone gets when they wake from a good night rest. Instead she is welcomed by rocks, trees, patches of grass and so on. And the sound of the birds cawing wakes her up around 5:30am. To her surprise, she is out in the middle of the woods. What's worse - she has no recollection of ever going into the woods.]

[...]

[It takes her about an hour to get back to Community House 2, where she quietly enters the house using a spare key. The "spare key" being a window against the wall of the 5th apartment room, which was convienently opened enough for her to push it up and climb into her bedroom. It's not being a bedroom intruder if you actually live in the house, right? She would enter through the door, but couldn't find her key once she arrived.

She silently showers, dries off, dresses herself in a new change of clothes and goes to the kitchen to start breakfast for the two other mouths. Hope you boys like scrambled eggs, toast and orange juice, made by your dear sweet mother. And try not to wonder why mom never came home last night either.]

[Written in the afternoon - Filtered from Luke and Asch 100%]

Okay everyone, it's time to play a game. The game is called "Who left Paprika in the middle of the woods last night without her permission". All you have to do is say the name of the jerkface who left me in the woods at night.

C'mon, don't be shy. I just want to know why I woke up in the woods this morning, instead of my significantly more comfortable bed. It's okay, I don't bite. Much.

[...]

Also, can someone make me a new key for my house?

[Asch shrugs and starts eating, though his expression sours at the mention of the festival.] I'm not going.

[fabrecation]

[Well, that snaps Luke out of his frustration - and out of his eating, too, and he lifts his head a bit to look at Asch in confusion.]

Why not?

[byakkoyagirl.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I'm interested in this too. Why not?

[She shoots a small look of confusion.]

[dissonates]

Don't look so surprised. You know I don't like big parties. [They're for people who actually like... you know... people.]

[fabrecation]

Yeah, but... [H-He's going to be there. ;A;]

[byakkoyagirl.livejournal.com]

[She frowns a little. It isn't like she's going to drag him there, but--]

This is a one time a year thing though. Can't you at least go out for an hour or two? I'm sure you can find something to do there. Something just as stimulating as reading a book.

[dissonates]

[Asch shoots an annoyed look in Luke's direction, as if he knows exactly what he's thinking.] I'm not going to go just to watch you make out with that girlfriend of yours. That's not the kind of stimulation anyone needs.

[fabrecation]

[ALDFJSDFEAWOIFD

Luke just. Covers his face with one hand to try and hide that blush - there might be a wave of embarrassment flowing over, too, and he shoots Asch an annoyed look in return.]

That's not all I'm- [WAIT THAT CAME OUT WRONG FFFFF] That's not what I'm going to do!

[byakkoyagirl.livejournal.com]

[O-Oh...]

Asch, you shouldn't tease your brother like...[And then she starts to snicker a little, but quickly composes herself] It isn't nice to say-- [okay she's snickering some more again oh no this isn't what a supportive mother does...

And then she turns to Luke and loses it when she sees him covering his face.]

L-Luke!! [And just puts a hand on his head and ruffles his hair.] Don't let him get you down! He's just jealous he doesn't have a girlfriend to do those things with! [Annnnd just laughing now.]

[dissonates]

[Oh, now you've stepped in it, Mom. The outrage is practically tangible.] I'm not jealous! He's the last person in the world I'd be jealous of!

[fabrecation]

[MOOOOOM WHY ARE YOU LAUGHING AT HIM. That just makes him blush MORE, you know. And cringe over the hair ruffling. YOU'RE EMBARRASSING HIIIIM.

Though he glances over at Asch - yup, he knows what that anger's all about. Heck, it practically slams into him thanks to their odd little connection.]

I know you're not, Asch. [That probably came out a little forceful, what with his embarrassment. Auuuugh mooooooom.]

[byakkoyagirl.livejournal.com]

[BECAUSE YOU ARE THE MOST ADORABLE SON.

She takes her hands off his hair after a moment and her laughing dies down into small chuckles, before she breathes in and finishes.]

Okay, okay, relax you two. C'mon finish your breakfast and you're free to do whatever you want. [She turns to Asch and smiles.] If you don't want to go I won't force you. But I do encourage you to go out at least for a while. You never know.

[dissonates]

Hmm. [She's lucky that she's mom, or she'd get a more disgruntled reply. But Asch is a momma's boy Better try for a distraction instead...] So why were you sneaking in this morning, Mother?

[fabrecation]

[Luke pouts again as he runs his hands through his hair to try and fix it up. Not that he can do much since it's in a disheveled, bedhead state, but still!

But once Asch brings that up...]

Wait, you... [And he gets images in his head from Asch - a picture of the window, of their mother, and of the dark when Asch woke up. After a slight pause, he blinks and tilts his head a bit.] Why did you sneak in?

[byakkoyagirl.livejournal.com]

[jsdkshffkas dammit sons why are you so sneaky this is totally unfair to mom!!!]

I didn't sneak in! Sneaking in implies something of a negative connotation, like I was a robber. I was...simply using an alternative route to enter the apartment. [Or, to put it more simply-] I didn't have my key and I didn't want to wake you, alright? Don't worry about it.

[dissonates]

I'm more interested in knowing why you were outside to begin with. Especially since I don't remember hearing you leave.

[Casual sip of his orange juice. The professor is on the case. Critical thinking is the key to success.]

[fabrecation]

And why didn't you have your key?

[No casualness from him. He's worried about this. And every puzzle has an answer.]

[byakkoyagirl.livejournal.com]

[When did her sons become Professor Asch and his assistant Luke fon Fabre]

Will you two relax? [A sigh. She isn't raising her voice or being frantic about this. Rather she's fairly calm.] Look it's nothing serious, I promise. I lost my key outside somewhere and had to go through my window.

[dissonates]

[Since..........okay don't ask questions]

Wouldn't you be concerned if we'd done the same thing? We're just asking questions.

[He likes to know when strange things are going on around him, after all.]

[fabrecation]

You know what this village is like sometimes. [After all, Guy disappeared without a trace...]

[byakkoyagirl.livejournal.com]

[For a moment, she considers defending again, but at this rate she can see that won't get anywhere. They're clearly concerned and just holding back things won't make them stop worrying. Though she has to say she's a bit surprised they even caught her, but they've always been a bit more perceptive than she has.]

I was in the woods for the evening, but I lost my key outside. Nothing else happened.

[dissonates]

[That's still a weird explanation, but it doesn't seem like she's hiding anything now. Huh. Just dumped out into the woods without an explanation? What is it, some kind of failed shift?]

Hm. [W-well, now that that's dealt with-] It's good that you're okay, then.

[fabrecation]

[The woods? Asch might be calm now, but there's just a tiny sense of panic from Luke; That's where Guy was when...]

Why were you in the woods? What happened out there?

[byakkoyagirl.livejournal.com]

Nothing happened. Okay, don't worry about it. [Turning to Asch and lightly tapping him on the nose with a finger.] That means you too. If it was something very pressing you two would be the first to know from me. This was just...an annoyance I guess is the best way to say it.

[dissonates]

[Asch wiggles his nose and leans back from the touch, brows furrowing. H-he wasn't worried, okay!? He just wanted to know! Totally.]

F... fine. You're back now, anyway, so it doesn't matter.
