[Asbel's still curled up in bed, which isn't much of a surprise. His head's tilted back so he can peek through the cracks in the boards at any light or shapes showing through. Anything to keep his mind off how weird everyone's been acting lately. At first he thought maybe it was stress or homesickness, but there's just something about it that feels wrong. Almost totally wrong. Especially when they brought him back to the ship after he wandered off. What was up with that anyway? He's never seen Hubert act like that before...]
[Rolling over onto his back, Asbel stares at the ceiling. Colonel Jade's a pretty smart guy when he's actually being serious. Maybe he should go talk to him, see if he's got any bright ideas. Or maybe he should just go find Hubert and ask him straight out. Yeah, it'd be pretty uncool, but he is the big brother here. And if somehow that made Hubert feel better, then it'd definitely be worth the embarrassment.]
[With a groan, Asbel shuffles onto his side and half-heartedly swipes at his bedhead. All right, enough of that. Time to get cracking!]
I MIND.
