Day 265 - Friday, September 12th
[A Chinese man who is definitely a mature adult and not a teenager checks in to the Hyatt, one of their more exclusive rooms, along with his half-white half brother who is also certainly not a teenager and most definitely not the notorious gang leader wanted on suspicion of a September 11th New York City bombing in retaliation for an angry rogue sect of anti-American zealots.
The entire suite floor has been rented out, and it requires a special key card in the elevator and on the stairs to enter that floor. But they can rent one of the still very luxe rooms directly beneath.
A familiar white limo is in the car garage, though the opportunity to gawk or investigate is slim, between the security cameras and live guards.
There's still no contact from Max, but the Department of Homeland Security has become involved, and has begun to enter Ash's territory with intent to arrest any known figures within his gang to bring in for questioning.]

That speaks to how happy you make me.

[ Ash shrugs. If Blanda really is happy with it, he isn't going to push him to be otherwise. ]
But if you're happy with how it's going...
[ He smirks into the glass. ]
I must be a really good date.

Have you ever taken a bullet to the head? There's a part of your brain that makes you feel normal emotions.

I'm saying if you are, you don't have to hide it.
no subject
Thank you.
no subject
Do you watch movies?
no subject
[Overly affectionate stroking of a hand along his arm is probably a little too obvious in now wanting to emphasize that he enjoys just having Ash there, that Ash is under no obligation to do anything to entertain or please him while he's here.]
no subject
Can you shut your logical mind off when watching them, or do you thinking about how it should really be done?
no subject
[Aggressively the latter, if said with a patented Blanca positive spin.]
no subject
It can be pretty bad sometimes if you focus on those details.

Or war, but I'll pass on that.
no subject
Would you like to see Kids Return? It's a youth drama that was popular with young men in the mid-90s.
no subject
How do you know about it?
no subject
[It's better for Ash to assume in his travels he just comes to know various books and movies, rather than thinking how thoroughly he's been trained in understanding cultural and countercultural zeitgeists.
All the more because he's really not as hip with any such media that came out after he retired.]
no subject
The man knew Ash had a few sides. ]
no subject
[He half expects Ash to fall asleep against him again, as it is. It's been a difficult two weeks.]
