[Man why did he put the liquor away, talking abou Asch like this just makes him tense. Grumbles. Oh well.]
I think Van might have told him the truth at some point, or some variety of it. So I can't blame him for feeling uneasy around me. It's another loss on a large list for him, and one that not's even on him entirely.
It's not really his fault I spent that whole time planning to kill him.
