[Mash had learned about Asterios' presence in Avalon when Ritsuka announced he was coming to live with the two of them (as opposed to just chillin out in the snow and muck and all that.) With that in mind, she had been keeping a bit of an eye on him since they arrived in Elphame, making sure he'd gotten a proper room and not gone back to his habit of sleeping outside. When she goes to check on him in that morning, though, she's surprised to hear him...talking to someone? She raps (heh) gently on the door with a knuckle.]
Mari, Mash, and the Minotaur!
Asterios, are you alright in there?
[The door creaks ajar just slightly...]
