Pointless to ask. If he wanted her alive he would say he didn't want to kill her.
If he killed her and didn't know or couldn't say, he would say he didn't want to kill her.
If he killed her and didn't want to get caught, he would say he didn't want to kill her.
[ Losing an arm is a bit dramatic to go to for the sake of pretense, of course- but it remains that Asch isn't exactly going to go and say "yeah actually I wanted the airhead princess dead :/" in any circumstance.
[ She's completely correct, though. No matter what, whether Asch did anything or not, he would claim that he didn't kill Nia- didn't want to- either way. ]
You're right. There's no point, but...
[ Okay, he hates this, but he still has to say it: ]
Right now, Asch is out of it due to the pain of having his arm treated. It would be hardest for him to lie in this state, and if you think there would be any merit whatsoever in asking him, now would be the best time. Right?
[ IT'S MEAN BUT it would make more sense to interrogate somebody though the fog of pain than it would when they're clear minded and able to lie. ]
...Ah. Why don't we go outside for some fresh air?
[ If she's going to punch something, better be trees. Or maybe up to her bedroom with a pillow to scream at, if the ducks and horses out there are too much. ]
[ He doesn't know yet, but he will later. Spiders in the garden he's not keen on seeing tbh ]
-—a simulation would make a lot more sense.
[ It's SCIENCE and not bullshit magic, he would believe a simulation over any of that ]
If something were wired up to our heads, we would be able to experience everything without it actually happening, and that would explain all the weirdness and all the discrepancies.
I would recommend against trying that. The shock might wake up you, but there is also a very high chance that you will simply fry your mind, or whatever processors and cores currently substituting for it.

[ He lived? If Nia hadn't died, would they just not have had a murder this week and ended up with a TPK? ]

Date: 2020-02-29 04:30 am (UTC)That's something to ask him. He was shouting for Nia- I don't think he wanted to kill her, but...
[ Who can tell. Would Nia have wanted Asch dead? Nobody should want anybody dead and that will always throw him off. ]

But someone else should do it. I wouldn't handle delicate tasks very well in my current state.
