Day 264 - Thursday, September 11th

[Max sleeps; has as he'd thought, he achieves nothing, and he's not even a small-talk source of comfort or somebody to soothe Ash's nerves before his two AM meeting with yet another Chinese teenager. Something about Chinese teenagers seems to always spell trouble for Ash, and now he's in a mess involving no less than four of them.

But Max doesn't move. If Ash comes to see him, setting that pill counter and the note about the smoothie, he may notice he hasn't so much as shifted a finger. Ash has had to turn to painting, but there's no need to lock that room before, or even for a long while after. The only one in this house besides him is a breathing corpse.

But Shawn's ready and waiting for him at one, prepared to be decked out a wires that Ling's likely to hang him with if he finds out about them.]

It's even more complicated than you know.

[ He urges Shawn to sit down in front of him. The cosmetic changes start there.

He also begins to pull out makeup from one of the bags. ]


Officially, Ash Lynx is dead. Ash Golzine is the adopted son of Dino Golzine and not connected to the gang leader at all.

Probably.

[ Which means no more college. Ash Lynx was wanted for a lot of murder. ]

But they're the only ones who can confirm Ash Lynx.

[ Time to start on the makeup. ]

Are you that sure I'm going to lose?

I'm not giving it over to them. My men risked their lives for it.

It won't be the first time. Last time, they were nice enough to fake my death for me.

I discredit the people who claim they saw me. Then Ash Lynx stays a ghost.

For the bombing? I actually have one.

[ He should have been near Nadia's when it happened. ]

[ It feels very much not like being in a gang. He's adding contour to Shawn's nose and eyes. ]

Ling wasn't even running his own operation. One of his brothers still might have him.

[ And Max still hasn't texted. ]
jadedlynx: (talk to the back)

[personal profile] jadedlynx 2023-04-11 10:19 pm (UTC)(link)
If he's alive.

[ Ash does know that's a possibility. Emotionally, he's preparing for it. Emotionally, he's doing his best for when or if it comes. He doesn't want for him to be dead. He doesn't want for him to be tortured. ]

Maybe he's dead. Maybe he's wishing he was.
jadedlynx: commissioned; please dns (a moment to reflect)

[personal profile] jadedlynx 2023-04-11 10:25 pm (UTC)(link)
He's more than likely suffering.

[ Ash knows that. Even if he heard of his death, he'd assume it was faked. ]

He was probably forced into a lot of stuff too young, but he's dangerous now.

[ But he wouldn't have given him over for torture. ]

This isn't fast. I have to make sure you don't look like yourself.

Turn on the TV.

[ By the time he's finished, Shawn is slightly darker with slighty lighter but longer hair. His eyes, thanks to the contacts, are somewhat more blue. Also also had a black wig slicked to look high class , eyebrows covered to look black, and contacts to make his eyes look darker blue. ]

We shouldn't be easy to spot now.
