❛ you know, in some cultures, it’s rude to stare. ❜ perhaps not her most shining moment overseas, but given the circumstances, maintaining appropriate decorum comes second to the tension she’s feeling in every inch of her body. even out of the castle, even with leon trusting this man, ashley can’t help but have her guard up. arms cross as she backs up against a table, taking note of the candelabra out her peripheral as she fixes her own hardened stare forward. ❛ who are you? ❜ and why are you here? // @stormfaded [ sc. ]
