Ace

*he takes a deep breath and he walks over to the ashes and he starts to pick them up one by one and he is shaking a bit*

*he stops in his tracks when he hears that, he didn't realize that they were dead. He looks at you, his anger fading away. He feels a bit guilty now, but he still doesn't want to admit it. He tries to act tough again* Ace: W-well, it's not my fault. It's not like I killed them or anything.

*Ace is shocked by how you're reacting, he thought you'd be more forgiving. He doesn't know what to say or do, so he just stands up and walks to the door*
