[the noise he makes could almost be mistaken for a laugh, albeit a quiet one]
It wouldn't be the first time. [why isn't this the first time something like this has happened, that's the real question. Asch can't tell she's being careful, but as they walk something in the set of his shoulders begins to relax. Not completely, he isn't so foolish to let his guard down while they're out here, but more like now he feels that, at least for now he has a bit more control over himself.
As they get closer he does become more alert, despite the lessening tension. Ears on his head perking up, no longer hidden in his hair. Hopefully one of these places has furnishings that aren't . . . too bad . . . ]
