[ VIDEO; LOCKED TO THE DEFENSE FORCE ]

Can I have your attention, please? I have a few announcements to make.

First of all, if you haven't already heard Derek Morgan is no longer with us. I'll be stepping in as temporary leader for the Investigative Team until a new leader can be elected — if you're interested in the position, come talk to me or Kitty.

Second, all of you who were assigned to the Investigative Team during our stay in Squall are highly encouraged to file out reports regarding our time there. Anything and everything you can think of, even the most insignificant of details can turn out to be of great use later on.

Data, it'd be great if you could come see me whenever it's convenient.

I'll be at the Defense Quarters HQ all afternoon if any of you need any help or have questions. That's all for now.

[ ACTION; OPEN TO ALL ]

[ True to his word, Reid will be at the Defense Force headquarters all afternoon, working away on his own Squall-related intel and pondering how to best report the rather startling discovery they might've stumbled upon.

Later in the evening he can be found in the education center music room, playing a rather familiar piece followed by the second movement of Beethoven No 8 sonata, Pathetique. A little slow and full of stumbles, but the boy tries. ]

	I'll keep it in mind. Thanks for the offer. [ Bit of a smile at that, and don't think he doesn't notice the way those fingers move over the keys. ] Would you like to play? I've had just about enough for now. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	If you don't mind, I'd be happy to. It's been a while since I've been able to play. [What with waging war and all] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ Stepping back from the piano, then! ] Go ahead, I don't mind at all. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[He has a seat and gets comfortable. He goes a bit of a different route than Reid had, perhaps telegraphing a bit of his mood. This is played by memory, not from any sheet music he may have found. His play is technically excellent, somewhat genuine. Perhaps because of what he's playing, and who is listening, but it feels a little hollow.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ He steps back to lean against the wall, giving the other man ample space to play. It's a good opportunity for study after all, dark eyes lingering on the other as he goes through the piece. The emotion in the key strokes, the choice of music, timing, body language — there's plenty to read here. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[He's got a lot on his mind lately. Euphemia, Nunnally, his past and what should be his future. What's happening at home with him here. Kallen and the others were likely rounded up by Britannia and dead by now. More weight on his shoulders...

But he had an audience. And still some modicum of pride. His face didn't change much as he played. When he was finished, he let the last note breathe a moment before he started moving some of the sheet music around on the stand, just seeing what was there.]

	[ If he rifles through the sheet music he'll soon notice that the pieces Reid played are nowhere to be found. That was learning from memory and nothing else. He shifts his weight some. ] You're pretty good. Have you played long? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	zugzwanger 2013-07-01 06:45 pm UTC (link)
	Since I was young. [It had made Euphemia and Nunnally so happy to listen to it. When he notices that the music wasn't there, he doesn't really react. Until he finds this abomination. No amount of poker face can handle that.] This is... [He's actually got no words for this.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Too difficult? [ Amused. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[And that gets you a scowl, Reid.] Tell me, what role do penguins have in an orchestra? [Holds out the music for him to see.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ Looking over the sheet music and only barely stifling a laugh. ] This, uh... this must've been something special to see in concert. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[He just looks exasperated and sets the music on a counter to one side.] My name is Lelouch, by the way. [Subject change! Handshake?] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ Handshake! ] Spencer Reid... though you already knew that, didn't you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	zugzwanger 2013-07-10 08:34 am UTC (link)
	Yes. I thought it might also be a good idea to say greet one of the heads of the Defense Force. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ Small smile. ] I'm just filling in temporarily, until we can find a new permanent leader for the Investigative Team. (Reply to this) (Parent)
