Ricard's back was killing him. It superseded the pain in his head, which was currently relegated to a dull throb, but the slightest movement just increased the pain. He could feel someone's arms wrap themselves around him, and though his vision was still mostly just a bright light, he knew it had to be Ashley. She was talking, but it sounded as if she were speaking to him underwater. Only a few of her words got through. By the time the wet towel began cleaning him up, however, his vision had cleared enough that he could make out things, if a little blurry, and his hearing had mostly returned but with a ringing in his ears. Ricard flashed Ashley a smile as he said "Heh, I wouldn't recommend tumbling backward down the stairs for entertainment. Not as much fun as it sounds." Ricard chuckled at himself as he went to sit up, groaning as he did so but resisting the urge to show it on his face. "From now on any dead body we come across in a place we're staying at, no matter how much of the body is missing, if it's head is intact we're smashing it, agreed?" Having fully sat up now, he turned to see the man David standing there with his daughter. "Hello there. The name's Ricard. Sorry for dropping in on you guys like that."

"Well, I probably should wait a minute or so, but then again, there's only one way to find out, Ricard replied a he took the arm Ashley offered to him. He tried not to place too much of his weight on her as he pushed himself up off the floor. Ricard groaned as his now stiffening muscles strained themselves. Luckily, his legs didn't lock up and collapse underneath him as Ricard straightened his body. Carefully, Ricard released Ashley's arm and stretched each part of his body one by one. "Well, a little sore," he announced, "but nothing seems broken." Ricard then turned his attention to the father standing nearby. "Well, a name would be nice. Other than that I'm good for now."

"Uh," Ricard hesitates as he looks down at Harley. He sees Harley staring back up at him as if awaiting an answer. Harley didn't seem to be backing away or making any threatening gestures toward the girl, so figuring it too be safe enough, replies while nodding his head and smiling, "sure." Ricard looks back at David, a look of confusion on his face that he was sure matched David's own. "Trust me? Hates men? Sure, there have been a few rough spots, but I never got the impression Ashley hated men. I've heard some stories about her aunt, but I'm sure those are merely drops in the bucket. Haven't really had time to discuss it with everything going on. Hell, it's only now just nearing 24 hours since this all began." Ricard glanced up at the ceiling for a brief moment, at where Ashley would be. His mind was racing, thinking back to all they had been through. Yeah, there were a couple times the teaching of her aunt had made Ashley do misguided things, and there was a bit of hesitance and reluctance at first, but Ricard had simply dismissed those as him simply being a stranger and Ashley's aunt trying to brainwash her. Ricard looked back at David shaking his head. "If Ashley truly hates men the way you say she does, then you'll have to ask her, cause I can't help you there." As Ricard said that though, he did now realize that Ashley did seem a bit...odd around David.
