WHO: Nephrite Curtiss and anyone
WHERE: Libra network
WHEN: Now
WHAT: Asch's dad has showed up to check on his kid
WARNINGS: None yet
[There are many ways Neph could go about this. It would probably be more proper if he reached out directly to his son, or to other Black Order members in town, letting everyone know that he's arrived and is setting up to be based here for a while. But he honestly does want to know how Asch has really been doing, and he isn't going to find that out just by asking people who know both of them already, or giving people time to prepare stories.
And maybe he also wants to jumpscare everyone who might recognize him. A man's got to find his fun somewhere.
So instead, you're getting a smiling, cheerful man with red eyes showing up on the network in a video feed. His demeanor oozes insincerity.]
Hello, Kaisou!
I do hope you all might indulge a concerned father for a moment. You see, some months back, my son Asch moved to this city. Now, he's a wonderful young man, but very independent, and he doesn't always come to me when he has problems. So if anyone can tell me honestly how he's been doing in his time here, I'd very much appreciate hearing it! Now that my work has transferred me here as well, I hope that we can all get along more closely.
[Is he threatening Asch? Anyone who might have been mean to Asch? All of the above? ...Let them guess, and let's see what comes of it.]

[That's...actually really sweet. And so sincere he doesn't know what to do with it. Answering honestly is too much. Stomping too hard on Luke's mood would be worse.]
For siblings, I suppose that must be high praise. It would want a bit of work if you were applying those standards to anyone else, of course.

[You'll get the lore whether you like it or not, Jade.]
Hey! My standards are plenty high! I'm not that easy to take advantage of.

[Nope, he doesn't. Not in the least.]
Well, I guess nobody in our family is really "normal." Except me, kinda.
[A beat.]
You're pretty strange, too.
