It was much too hot. That was his first clue and what first had him seeking a place in the forest for himself. Asato never had claimed a room of his own (he hadn't even considered the idea that he was allowed) and so had no place to lock himself into when it started.

The heat was followed by pain and need and restless energy as it always was. There were no other Ribika here he would or could seek out and even if they're were, they wouldn't have been Konoe.

So, Asato would have to content himself with the makeshift shelter he'd made in the forest. A simple canopy over a collection of blankets he'd taken from the cupboards inside with a few objects of interest. He was trying to distract himself from the discomfort with a book, but eventually he could even focus on that and just lay down, curled up on himself, and tried not to cry.

even MORE ooc notes: He's in pain, and might be a bit more tense and snippy than is normal for him, but he's still Asato and still friendly.

"I'm sorry, please don't be upset," he says to Asato's reaction. "I just... didn't expect that, is all. Really, it was foolishness on my part to not even consider..." He trails off and shakes his head.

"So - your family?" Miles asks, confused, thinking Ribika. "But you're the only one here?"

Asato uncurls a bit and nods. "Yes, I'm the only Ribika here, but Anita and Merlin both say I'm like family." He smiles and, despite being six feet tall and having a deep baritone voice, seems even more childlike than before.

"I've never had family before. It's nice."

Miles smiles when he hears this. "That's wonderful, Asato," he says sincerely. "I'm glad you've found such a belonging, and that you finally have a family."

"You deserve one," he adds.

He smiles and, perhaps feeling a bit bolder from knowing he has a family and knowing he's not alone, offers:

"You are family too Miles."

Miles is a bit surprised to hear that. "Family? You think so?" he asks, not displeased.

"I could probably use some family around here," he admits. "Thank you, Asato." He smiles.

"Family's important." Asato beams, but a sudden jolt of pain reminds him why he's out here in the first place and he winces, folding his hands over his stomach.

"Asato, what's wrong? Are you all right?" Miles cries, reaching forward. He doesn't know exactly what "heat" entails, but he worries about his new friend being in pain.

He catches himself, hesitant and feeling awkward at the outburst. He's usually much more reserved.

Asato starts a bit at the outburst, though he's mostly confused. "I'm ... I'm okay Miles." He says. "It is just the heat. It hurts." He's not whining, only stating facts, though his voice is a bit breathy and strained.

"Are you sure there's nothing I can do for you, to make you more comfortable?" Miles asks.

Asato blushes a bit, then shook his head. "You aren't a cat," he says. "I do like you, but ... that wouldn't be fair or right."

Miles blushes deeply. "I...uh... um..." he stammers. "Yes, well, I suppose if that is the only thing, I can't very well, er, comply... Right."

His tail flicks a bit and he frowns. "Comply? I wouldn't ever force someone. Not ever."

"I know... I know," he finishes softly.

He sits there a moment more in awkward silence. "Um... Would you like me to read to you, Asato?" he asks.

He perks up at that and reaches into his things for his now slightly battered copy of "Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats". "Please? If it's okay..."

"Certainly," Miles says with a smile. He takes the book from Asato. "Let's see, now where were we...?"

He begins to read from where he left off the last time.

Asato keeps a polite distance between them, but listens happily.

If you want, we can fade to black here? Asato really does have a terribly crush on Miles. It's the frilly top.

Sure thing. It just occurred to me that Asato's heat is probably over by now ^^;; And LOL frilly top!

*laugh* It is. Asato would love to see Miles again though! He'll be at the fireworks post in a bit if you're interested. If not, it's groovy. He can meet up with Edgeworth another time. ^^
