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.]

[She sighs.]
I'm probably—no, definitely prying here, but I'm actually curious. How did you end up adopting Asch?
no subject
...The night when Luke was taken away to that cult, the two of them were separated. I found Asch...wounded [dead] from defending his brother. After he regained consciousness, the first thing he asked me was where Luke had gone.
[He sighs, shaking his head with fond exasperation.] The only way I could get him to come with me and accept further treatment was to tell him we'd look for Luke together. And you've probably seen enough of him by now to understand that he wouldn't release me from that promise even when I tried to have him adopted by a more ordinary family.
[So he kept the kid, and now it's been fourteen years, and of his many regrets this is not one.]
