towerofanimus | Awkward Redhead Bonding Time [Closed]

Characters: Your local sources of Stupid Fabre Genes
Setting: The sauna. //swoon
Format: Knowing us, probably actionspam.
Summary: Asch attempts to corner his wayward replica with a hairbrush, and gets dragged into the baths instead. Awkward bonding ensues.
Warnings: Here be awkward, naked redheads.

[Alright, enough was enough. Luke's usual mess of hair was bad enough, but something about it today was just terrible enough to really set his original off. To that end, Asch has snagged his hairbrush out of his room and is now stalking his way down the stairs after his replica. A quick peek over their connection gives him a location, and -

Why is Luke going to the sauna, anyway?

...Doesn't matter. Asch stomps his way into the locker room with every bit of authority he can muster, that hairbrush held not unlike a weapon. Why couldn't he have gotten the version with short hair, again?]

Alright, idiot, where are you?

[At least he's not abusing the mindlink this time? Be grateful for small blessings, Luke.]

Why shouldn't you?

[And instead of stroking Luke's hair, this time he lightly whacks his replica in the back of the head. Bonk.]

Logically, you're capable of anything I am.

[Heeey, he was finally getting comfortable with that freaky stroking. Luke pouted, sinking in the water a bit.]

Yeah, but... well, I'm not as smart as you are.

[And, to what is no doubt Luke's surprise, have a hmph.]

No, you're not as experienced.

Er... there's a difference?

[Yes, Luke. Yes there is.]

[A big difference.]

Someone who's outright stupid won't be able to make good decisions no matter how much experience they get. If you're willing and able to learn, then you aren't stupid.

[Luke paused a moment, looking shy again.]

S-so... before, in the Dark World... was I doing okay...?

Hell of a lot better than the rest of those idiots.

[Seriously, those guys weren't even trying. And he can hardly hold it against Luke that the rest of the group ignored him.]

[Luke sunk into the water to hide how much he was blushing, muttering a faint "thanks" as he went.]

[And on that note, it's hairbrush time, before they get completely wrinkly. Sorry, Luke, Asch is just going to casually reach behind you and grab a chunk of the long hair that's floating on the water, gently pulling the brush through it.]

H-hey!

[Traitor! They were having a tender moment!]

[Really, Luke, you know damn well that that's the only reason he came in here. There is no escape now.

He's very careful to not pull, though, even though some of the tangles in Luke's hair make him scowl.]

[Luke just sulked, pouting at Asch as he ran the comb through his hair, flinching every time he snagged a tangle.]

Why you gotta do this anyway?

Well, you've made it clear that you're not going to do it yourself. And you look terrible.

[Getting some of these mats out in the wet is a job, though. Asch would ask about the last time it was brushed, but the answer is probably something he doesn't want to know.]

I do not look terrible; my hair is always like this!

[Welcome to Guy's problems, Asch.]

Always terrible, you mean?

[Well, after seven years, the poor dude certainly deserves a break. Asch sets down the chunk he was working with, satisfied enough for the moment to move on. Just wait till he gets to your scalp, Luke.]

[Oh that is not going to go over well...]

[Luke grumbled, sinking into the water, so that his nose was just above it, blowing bubbles of annoyance with his mouth. You suck, Asch. You. Suck.]

[His reign as Unpleasant Truths fon Fabre continues. Have an ill-fitting icon as a reward.

Blow all the bubbles you want, Luke, he's just going to continue brushing, occasionally using his fingers to handle the worst of the knots.]

Oooowwwww...

[And of course Luke was going to whine. The entire. Time. Enjoy that, Asch.]

It's not like it's going to stay this way!

[You whine as though it's anything new.]

It will if you put any effort into it at all. Case in point -

[And he lifts a bit of his own, slightly darker hair to wave in front of Luke's face.]

...you are such a girl.

[Don't even try to deny it, Asch.]

How do you even have the time?

Is that supposed to be insulting?

[Because, really, Luke, look at the women he knows.]

It doesn't take so long if you keep up with it. Hold still, this is going to yank.

[At least he warned you?]

Wh--

[And... adjsfalksjdf;alskdjfa;slkdfjas]

OW!

[And a little more tugging and - there we go. Awful knot gone.]

I did warn you.

It still hurt!

Consider it your punishment for not taking care of your hair in the first place.
