Stop thinking in assembler. You are using C now. All your variables are in RAM. If you want to access a particular location, either use the #byte directive, or #locate, to put a C variable at the required location.
However much better to just let C handle the memory for you.
If you want to work relative to a 'pointer', then use the C pointer access, or array access.
