[People to See/Things to do]
Date: The afternoon of the 8th; the evening of the 9th; throughout the day of the 11th
Location: Apartment 608 x2 combo; various shops and streets throughout Exsilium
Characters: Asch, Kido, and Elliot; two redheads and a colonel; and then, finally, Asch and whoever decides to hassle him.
Summary: An evening of cooking and recipe exchanges, as promised, plus maybe some roommate interference; Jade actually explains something; and then one redhead out on the town, celebrating being alive... sort of. You know, in the most tsunnish way possible.
Warnings: Talk of death possible in the open prompt, and certain in the second one.
Closed to Kido and Elliot -
[The kitchen is as clean as he can make it in an hour or two - really, Asch should have made Elliot learn to mop, but that's a lesson in self-sufficiency for another day. For right now, it's good enough for having a guest over, especially one who knows how inadequate Elliot is when it comes to housekeeping. Maybe the idiot will stick around long enough to learn a thing or two about cooking.
When he goes to open the door, his sleeves are uncharacteristically pushed up past his elbows, revealing a couple of scars across the back of his right hand and forearm. He's also very nearly smiling.]
Come on in.
[No standing on ceremony here; he doesn't wait for a reply before heading back towards the kitchen, although he does stop long enough to glance at the kitten curled up on the couch, fast asleep.]
Closed to Jade and Luke -
[He'd been expecting Jade to come calling after that encounter in the streets, and on some level Asch was waiting for it. He's still not exactly ready to answer the door when it's knocked on, with a bit of flour on his shirt and the kitchen still only half-cleaned up. His hair is pulled back with one of the elastic hairbands he'd picked up in the town, although a few strands of his bangs are falling into his face when he opens the door. His slightly frazzled expression becomes more serious when he sees the man standing in front of his door, and Asch winds up leaving a few streaks of flour across his forehead as he pushes his hair back in an attempt to make himself a little more presentable.]
Jade. It's about time. Mind the cat.
[The aforementioned ball of white fluff peeks around from behind Asch's ankle, looking curiously up at Jade with two differently colored eyes. Asch nudges her away from the door with one heel before stepping back to let Jade inside, gesturing towards the standard set-up of couch and chairs in the living room.]
I'll make some tea, if you can give me a few minutes.
[A pause, as he turns back to the kitchen.]
...If you want to bring Luke over, just bang on the wall. I already told him what I know.
[That the fonons of his body were leaving for his replica's - Asch's words aren't entirely free of resentment, but he manages to hide it by focusing on clearing enough space on the stove for a kettle. The kitten follows him there, winding around his ankles as he slides a few cookies off a cooling rack into a plastic container.]
Open -
[Someone got their obligations done early this morning, and seems to have taken a day on the town - Asch can be found poking through any number of the smaller shops today, but it seems like whatever he's looking for, he's not having much luck finding it. His search seems to be mostly through the more expensive jewelry in the antiques stores; it's the more old-fashioned gold that catches his eye, not the brightly colored plastics, although none of it seems to catch his attention longer than a few moments, anyway.
Later, he can be found inside a small bakery, looking over an assortment of cakes, pies, and other sweet things. For the most part, he seems to be making faces at them, apparently finding them all too sweet for his liking. Eventually, he points out a fruit tart, and once the baker has put it in a nice little box for him, he steps back out into the rain, settling down to one of the smaller cafe tables under a cover nearby to eat. There's a second chair there that he doesn't seem to be paying any attention to...
Finally, later in the evening, he's slipping around the back alleys of the city, a bit farther out from the Hold. For the most part, he ignores the buildings that are obviously occupied; instead, his attention is on the ones that don't have anyone living in them, most of which are in sore need of fixing up. He passes, and then comes back to, what seems to have been a restaurant of some kind in years past - the windows are broken through, however, and even from the outside the damage of a large fire is obvious. Asch doesn't look like he particularly cares, though - when he can't yank the boards from the door easily, he goes in through one of the windows instead, his boots crunching on broken glass.]

no subject
I'll give them a try sometime, then.
[Or make his own, probably - this is the first time he's eaten out in the two months he's been here.]
no subject
[Enough talking, more eating delicious sugar. After all, Yuri didn't sit there to converse with anyone, but he can at least play ~nice~ and chat a bit.]
All the dessert shops are pretty good.
[Then again, it's sugar. If it's edible, Yuri will be there.]
no subject
[All the desserts, huh? Sounds like someone eats like a little kid who thinks their parents won't notice the missing cookies.]
no subject
Okay, okay, you caught me, I like desserts.
[And he doesn't sound bothered in the least....]
no subject
The redhead chuckles slightly, taking a bite of his own snack.]
Well, better than eating raw sugar, I suppose.
[That was almost a joke. Someone's clearly in a good mood.]
no subject
[Eating raw sugar is pure energy, and is actually pretty good. But it's even better when mixed into things like cake, pudding, crepes, sorbets, et cetera.]
How's that thing?
[Motioning his head towards the tart.]
no subject
Pretty good. The crust is a little soft, but that's probably because of the humidity.
[He shoots a glance out into the rain. Yeah, self-explanatory.]
no subject
To be expected here. Pretty amazing people have been able to figure out optimal recipes even in this weather. Maybe it's 'cause it's twenty-four seven that it's easy to adapt a recipe.
[A shrug.]
Maybe I should try some soon.
[Cook... open a bakery... make recipes filled with ~love~.]
no subject
[Plenty long enough to get a dedicated group of recipes together, either way.
The thought of cooking, though? That's more interesting.]
If you're any good, you could probably make some money off it.
no subject
[Unfortunately, Yuri is not studious enough to really care about this place's history. He barely knows about his own world's history minus the stuff that's affecting him now. Or was affecting him before he was brought here.]
I never was a business man. Staying in one spot isn't my style.
no subject
A traveller, then? There's not very many places to go, here.
[May as well do something, Yuri. Especially if it's something you enjoy.]
no subject
Nah, so when I'm not training, I stay in my room.
[And when he's tired of his room (which if he's there he's sleeping) then he's out training. Really, a simple routine for a simple guy.]
no subject
...And people say my life is boring.
[At least herding his roommate is something to do.]
no subject
Just haven't found anything here that excites me yet.
[Like large assed monsters he can fight and actually get a thrill out of.]
no subject
Fair enough. It's a boring place.
[Boring enough that Asch is starting to get agitated overall, really. He's had more than enough of a break, time to get back to moving - only thing he really knows.]
no subject
[So he does his best to pretend that he's not there and go cause chaos elsewhere. Worked for him so far.]
no subject
[Then again, he's pretty well acqainted with weird time shit, although not from the perspective of travelling through it. Asch has just spent some time thinking about what might be different if one or two events in the past had gone differently, that's all. Living in a world chained by a prophecy, and fighting against it, tends to put that kind of thing in perspective.]
