Mark of Darkness [private for me and RedRose4]

[zajawa]

With feeling something moist gainst his face Ashley was slwoly waking up. Opening his eyes he looked at Ket and then frowned a bit only to chuckle a bit.
"And what are you doing..? Making my eyeballs moist?", he asked softly. "Ah. I know. You fell in love and wanted to show me it by using something wet on my face?"
Then he realised he was much stronger.. and remembering slowly everything that had happened. He was always joking like he did few seconds ealier with Yuki. She was the one to teach him talking back efficiently and all that.
"You... saved my life..", said Ashley after few longer moments.

[RedRose4]

It was a nice surprise to see Ashley's eyes open, causing Ket to pause shortly and then carefully wipe around his eyes to make sure most of it was gone. Hearing the young vampire speak, Ket chuckled, and then shook his head with a smile on his face when he spoke once more. "Yes of course, I'm in love and I'm washing your face to show just how much I care." He joked back, nudging Ashley and sighing. "Glad to see you're back..."

Finishing up, and noticing he got most of it, but not all of it entirely, Ket threw the tissue in the garbage, wiping his hands on his pants and then looking at Ashley, a little taken aback from his words. With a soft smile, Ket shook his head again and leaned forward so he could whisper to the other man. "I didn't save you Ashley...you saved yourself. I just helped...that's all. You were strong, just like I knew you would be." Ket said with a faint smile.

[zajawa]

Ashley felt really moved but decided to turn everything into joke, seeing Ket was feeling uncomfortable with him thanking him.
"You're my knight in shining armor. Would we now take a wedding with lot's of flowers and singing birds?", he asked with a small smirk. "I think you should be the one wearing the dress. It's now very fashionable to make princesses rescue men~"

[RedRose4]

With Ashley joking around like that, Ket finally smiled again, laughing at the random words being spoken and shaking his head while scoffing. "Me wearing the dress? Hey I'm not good with those kinds of things, you'd be wearing it." Ket grinned, sighing again and then ending with a soft laugh.
"Yeah, it's nice to see you back, that's for sure. Just as annoying as before though." Ket teased, looking at the blood bag and seeing it was done, although Ashley didn't need anymore, he probably felt fine when it came to his hunger, so Ket didn't worry about calling a doctor. "You know, we have classes in fourteen hours? When the sun begins to set again...you think you'll be up for it?" Ket wonders, asking seriously although having a little bit of playfulness in it as well. Then the vampire noticed the bag, not touching it but just glancing at it for a little while.
"And...what's that? If you don't mind me asking." Ket mumbled.

[zajawa]

"I'm not annoying..", grumbled Ashley and then nodded. "Well.. I feel fine right now. Nothing hurts anymore so I guess.. I'll be kicking your ass once again today."
Being reminded about the bag he patted it with a soft smile.
"It's all my treasures from home. There's nothing valuable there for any besides me", he said and then looked at Ket. "Did your master let you do that too?"

[RedRose4]

Ket was happy to hear that reaction from Ashley. He sounded like his good old self, which of course was what he wanted to hear. Nodding his head, Ket then chuckled and smiled cockily. "We'll see about that." he said with a kind voice, looking back at the bag once he mentioned it was full of some of his things.
"Nice...I'm surprised he allowed that." Ket then looked back at Ashley, sighing and shaking his head. "He couldn't have actually. My house burned to the ground, I remember most of my past though, so I'm just hoping I'll remember. Even if I don't, I wrote down in a huge journal all the memories I have, from the ones I had as a child, to the ones prior to turning, so that if I forget someday...I can read it." Ket said with a soft, almost sad smile. "I just hope I don't forget.."

[zajawa]

"Your house burned? Damn... that sucks.. though you had a great idea with the journal. Maybe I should try that as well? Well.. if he wouldn't be as nice as to take me to gather those things I wouldn't bother to defend him. Well... probably..", he said, not sure actually what he would have done in a bit different situation.

[RedRose4]

Ket nodded slowly, waiting for Ashley to finish talking before doing it himself. "Yeah, thankfully my parents made it out, it was just some freak accident." Ket then pursed his lip, looking around and then thinking to himself before speaking. "They have some paper and pencils in that room I told you about, the 'quiet room' kind of thing. You can always write there....at least until Destro allows you to have a journal, or anything for that matter."
Ket sighed but then smirked a little. "You defended your Master, that's...a big deal, a good thing to do. Even if he's an asshole, it shows you have a heart still Ashley...I'd do the same for my Master....I don't think either of us could live with knowing we could have prevented someone from dying. Even if it was someone so horrible." Ket thought aloud, saying whatever was on his mind in that moment.

[zajawa]

Hearing out what Ket had to say he then sighed deeply.
"You think so?", he asked, rubbing his forehead. "I just thought.. I couldn't let him die when we were out only because of my belongings.. If not for that... he wouldn't be out.. so it would be kind of.. I don't know... bad? Was he a one to go for you?"

[RedRose4]

Ket leaned his head against the bed Ashley was laying on, nodding his head subtly and smirking a little, although it was slightly hidden by his hand propped under his chin. "I can't deny that he deserves to die...but that doesn't mean you should be the reason for it. I also doubt you'd be happy your entire enternity knowing you could have saved someone, even if it's Destro."
Ket then chuckled and shook his head. "No." he said simply before sighing. "I don't think so, but it's no big deal." Ket said without a care in the world.
