Asher hummed to himself as he cleaned up around the weapons room. Lately it had been slow around the blacklight district, people rarely came as of right now. Granted it seemed to be a slow time with it being winter. The weapons room was pretty messy and disorganized so now was a good time to do something about it. Hearing steps he doesn’t look up from the gun he’s cleaning, frowning just a bit to himself.

“Haven’t seen you down here in awhile.” He looked up finally to see Joshua standing there. He’s not too worried about him being down here, if it was Julia it’d be different. He didn’t like the idea of her with the weapons out in the open. A small room to show her and train with her would be better. “Sorry I’m moving things around, cleaning up the room an’ shit.”

There was no sneaking up on Asher thanks to his ‘advantage,’ but Joshua was grateful the vampire allowed them a second before his presence was acknowledged. He needed a second to take in the sight and let his mind slow down enough to be in the moment before he spoke. “Hey,” he mumbled in greeting, reluctant to to justify his disappearance. It sure as fuck wasn’t Asher’s fault that the male became more aware of his physical impairment when he was around the immortal being. After all this time, he was coming to terms with what he had to do to survive. But it was a constant reminder, the elephant in the room that neither of them really talked about. Truth be told, he didn’t want to talk about it, thus the distance.

“Take your time- I didn’t realize anyone was down here,” he admitted with something that could be considered a grin, but the expression passed as quickly as it came. Taking a step back, his weight resting on his left hip, the former hunter continued. “I just had some downtime; was gonna get in some practice while it’s still light out. I can come back, though.”
