Mm. [ah yes. double trouble trauma.] I know the feeling. Mine's probably half of how anyone tells us apart on first glance at this point.

Just as well, I suppose. I find I like it better this way.

[bloodyashes]

Luke chopped hair longer than mine back to his chin. It actually looked pretty good, so he can't have done it himself.

[SORRY, LUKE...]

[burninglight]

[he made the attempt]

Mine's always been something of an unruly mess, personally. I just haven't cared to cut it much since it started growing out again.

[bloodyashes]

- Oh, right, that would have stopped too.

[Look Asch isn't. always the brightest bulb. Let him live.]

Can't blame you for getting tired of the same thing after that long.

[burninglight]

More like it was sort of a charming little novelty, being able to change how I looked without using magic.

[Ardyn shrugged, idly pushing his hair out of his eyes.]

Not too sure I'm looking forward to any of it turning gray, but we'll see what happens when we get there.

[bloodyashes]

Maybe you'll get lucky. Mine won't actually be grey until I'm seventy or something, it just gets less vibrant over time.

[Because somehow his fifty+ year old parents and uncle are just maroon instead of grey streaked.]

[burninglight]

Hm. Can't say I'd complain about that.

[bloodyashes]

One of a whole two nice things about all the inbreeding, and the jawline is the other one.

[... It is a very nice jawline.]

I wish I could have at least gotten some of the Fabre height, I'm not even as tall as my mother...

[burninglight]

[Ardyn very quickly muffled a laugh behind his hand.]

Fortunately, I don't think that was ever much of a factor to the Lucian bloodline. Not that it would've mattered, I was first anyway.

[bloodyashes]

That's what the other you said when it came up, too, after being offended by the fact that it was all because the Score mandated that I be a redhead.

[burninglight]

...I'm sorry, run that one by me again?

[bloodyashes]

He will be a boy with royal blood and hair of red, and he shall be called the light of the sacred flame.

[The whole pitch of Asch's speech changes, and for a moment the music around him flares up, adding a haunting undercurrent. Asch glares off to the side at that, but it's still another moment or two before the music stills.]

Yulia's Score is very precisely detailed.

[burninglight]

. . .

[you know what? that's weird!]

That is disturbingly specific.

[bloodyashes]

It's also listed by year.

[How helpful, Yulia!]

[burninglight]

What the entire, legitimate, predestined fuck.

[bloodyashes]

[Emphasis on predestined.]

Most people's birth Scores are not as precise as Yulia's, but that's the way it's been for most of the last two thousand years.
