“Uh, I was drinking that.“
[Prompt]
Asher let out a loud 'ahh' as he polished off the drink entirely. Instead of looking at Halldis, however, he was making eye contact with some shady stranger off in the corner. Eventually the stranger got spooked and left the tavern in quite a hurry.
"Keep an eye on yer drinks, lass, I'll be back," he said mock-cheerfully, before heading out the doors with a determined stride.

“ would you ever take that dare?”
[Prompt]
“Come on... yeh should know there’s hardly any dare I’d back down from,” he answered with a sly grin. Still, he shook his head and took a deep swig from his bottle.
“But goin’ toe-teh-toe with that monster of a man? No thanks.”

❝ I feel the hunger inside you. Gnawing at you. ❞
[Prompt]
Asher didn't typically let it get to this point, but the Dawnguard had been all over the city and the vampire hadn't been able to catch one drunken straggler alone at night. By the time the Imperial realized his hunger was nearing a dangerous level, it was too late for him to travel to another location for a meal.
"I'm feelin' it too," he grumbled, voice nearly a snarl. He had nearly gained a snack - just enough to keep the thirst at bay - before the scent of another vampire broke his focus. He was almost irritated that it was one he knew.
"Don't suppose yeh've got anything to whet the appetite with, ey, lad?"

“S’cause yer a guard,” Asher replied flatly, taking a bite of jerky and leaning against the gate wall. “No one likes the guards.”

"Sorry it didn’t work out between you and Brass. I know you were excited for the wedding." [From Sham?]
[Prompt]
“Aye, aye, it’s a right shame Brandy went ‘n left me at the altar,” Asher replied, a mock pained expression on his face. The Imperial leaned over, attempting to give Sham his most pitiful, yet alluring, look.
“Would yeh be so kind as teh keep me company on this terrible, terrible day?”

Yet I Dared
“Don’t you fuckin’ dare."
Asher sighed and squeezed his eyes shut, leaning forward on the rose-patterned couch. He had to compose himself. Had to push it all down and yet confess at the same time. It was maddening.
"That’s it. Those were his last words. Me own son’s dying words to his father."
Aurelio sat in his gaudy-patterned chair (ducks, because Aurelio liked the way they clashed with his velvety purple drapes) and felt a heaviness settle on his chest. The Lord felt for Asher, he really did: the man’s life had been none too easy, though majority of Asher’s own decisions were what led him sprinting down his dark paths.
"Are you harboring guilt, Asher? By that I mean…do you feel as though you should have listened to him?"
A pause. The vampire didn’t look up at his Sire. Couldn’t, perhaps, or simply wouldn’t. After a moment’s thought, Asher looked up, an amused and yet pained smirk spreading across his face. His eyes glistened with fresh tears, hot and ashamed.
”Fuck no.“

Each one of Halldis’ knitting projects left her with scraps of yarn that were not long enough to make anything on their own. She’d had the idea to cobble them together into a single multicolored sweater, which she planned to give to Asher. Now she was nervous. To was not ugly to her eyes, but it was a bit strange probably. She hesitated, but held the folded sweater out to him, offering an uncertain smile, “Um...I made this for you. I-It might be a bit big, I’m not sure. I hope it’s alright.”
Asher had been in the middle of a yawn when Halldis began speaking. As such, he didn’t actually see what she was talking about until it was thrust into his arms. Immediately, a tidal wave of expressions flooded across his face.
Confusion, surprise, pain, joy, genuine glee.
“This is...” the Imperial started, but felt his throat choke before he continue. Instead, he pulled the sweater on, smoothing it out as best he could and grinning, not bothering to try and blink away the tears that rose to his eyes.
“Thank yeh, Halldis.”

“I’ve seen some weird shit, but you’re something else.” (Jocelyn)

“I’ll take that as a compliment, love,” the Imperial replied with a bright smile. “Must be pretty out there to catch your attention.”

“No promises there, sweetheart,” Asher grinned, winking at the mer as he passed by him.

don’t touch me right now! i’m not - don’t touch me!
[Prompt]
The Imperial jerked his hands away, as if physically burned by the words. He shrank away, almost folding in on himself, and took not one, but two steps away from the woman. 
He opened his mouth slightly, but hesitated, before finally closing his mouth and nodding.
