[If the chill of Ardyn's skin bothered Asch, he wouldn't have clung to Ardyn's wrist so tightly in the first place. It doesn't matter if he's kind of corpse-like, because Asch knows that he's still alive in whatever bizarre backwards horrible way that word applies, and -
He's solid and real and not the remembered king whose name will probably make Asch flinch at the reminder for a good long time.
That's enough, as far as Asch is concerned, to stay attached until he can stop his shoulders shaking and his breath periodically deciding to come in gasps instead of the carefully counted breaths he's trying to make it perform.]
Stupid. 'M not leaving.
[Is that as in not letting go short of being pulled off or as in the other kind of leaving? Guess, he's still not articulate.]
