Summary: Sharing a body between two souls will always have conflict, worse when neither is fighting for it. Drabbles about Lambda and Asbel's relationship during and after the game.

"Hey, Asbel," Sophie spoke from behind the redhead, effectively scaring the wits out of the man, who had just opened the door from his bedroom. Asbel twisted to the side, somewhat twitching with a small drop of sweat running down his chin. The purple-haired girl tilted his head at that and leaned over closer to get a better examination of the other. "Are you okay?"

"Y-Yeah. You surprised me, that's all. You shouldn't sneak up on people like that. I swear, you almost gave me a heart attack," The swordsman sighed and reached up to scratch the back of his head, closing his multicolored eyes for a moment before looking back at his adopted daughter. "Well, did you need something, Sophie?"

"Oh, yes, I was wondering about something. How's Lambda today?" Sophie placed her hands together, staring at the purple eye for any signs she seemed to be searching for.

"Again? You know, why don't you ask him? I can't be the in-between man for something like this every day." Groaning, he closed his eyes and shoved Lambda into control. He didn't mind it at first with the questions, but every day was starting to grate on his nerves and there was only so much he could do. Stepping back to allow the two to talk was for the best. Damn, he was starting to sound like Lambda now.

Lambda blinked once he was in control, momentarily raising an eyebrow at Asbel's rapid thoughts, both of his eyes purple, and stared down at the girl. "Yes? You wanted to ask something?"

"Lambda, how've you been?" She looked a little hesitant at having to talk to the other directly.

The red ead folded his arms and stood still, shifting his position comfortably. "Fine I guess, there's not much to say. You should be asking Asbel those questions. Anything that happens to him happens to me as well," He closed his eyes for a moment, taking a deep breath, and turned away. "He lets me do whatever I want whenever I'm out and he does it often enough to keep entertained to a point. It's like we take turns on who is in control not that I mind."

"That's good to hear. Asbel can be too kind at times, he has a really good heart."

"Yes, he does. I'm quite glad that he decided to take me in despite what I had done. I guess if he hadn't neither of us would be here to this day much less talking like this," Lambda unfolded his arms and took a step towards the front door, Sophie following right behind. "I owe this fool my life."

"Fool?"

"Asbel. He's an idiot," Lambda almost chuckled when he heard a 'Hey' in the back of his head. "Always helping others without thinking about or for himself."

The purple-haired girl could only smile at that, shifting her long hair back to keep it from hanging in front of her. "Yes, he's always been like that, but that's what I like about Asbel. So make sure he doesn't go too far. He needs someone to keep a constant watch over him."

"Obviously," Lambda reached forward and pushed open the heavy doors, letting the fresh air breeze past their faces. The sunlight was bright and it took him a moment to adjust to see the outside world. He could hear the birds chirping and water rushing through the banks. It was a good day. Sohpie ran ahead to look at the flowers she's been growing, examining them to see if there was any in trouble or if they needed some extra water. "Well, I'm heading back." Lambda closed his eyes to let Asbel gain back control, except he was just shoved forward once more. He narrowed his eyes at that in confusion, not sure what the other was up to. "Or apparently not, looks like Asbel doesn't want to leave the mind space yet. You'll have to put up with my presence for a little longer."

"That's fine. Do you want to help me water the flowers? It's going to be hot today so they're going to need all the water they can get to survive." Sophie smiled, lifting up a watering can. The liquid inside could be heard swishing side to side within the metal.

"Might as well." Taking the item, he began pouring the cool liquid onto the plants, watching them soak it up quickly. While he was doing that, Sophie ran by to get another watering can and began on the other side, tending to her flowers carefully. She was humming happily to herself, and at times started talking to the flowers for fun.

Lambda glanced up to watch her for a moment before going back to his work, unable to hide the smile on his face. It was a good day.

Still working through the requests. I'll try to get to every single one
