"Asked nicely for a tank." He grins and shakes his head. Ash doesn't doubt it, actually he looks impressed. "Now I know who to go to for party supplies."

There is more to that story but he isn't going to press him for that information yet. Even if he wants to. Ash understands needing to keep secrets. He has many of them himself.

"Yeah, it's nice to matter." Ash pauses, thinking. "Also feels good to have people who only want you. That don't care about what you can do for them. You need that too."

Babe. Ash can't help but to smirk at that. "Think I can trust you so I'm going to be brave and say dare."
