	Is that what you called it? Yes, you would have had a name for it, wouldn't you? I know what you asked Suzaku to do. I know this place is your second chance too. [Or at least an extension of time for both of them. She feels not guilt wanting him here. Not when he can't be back home with Nunnally.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[ A faint smile tugs at the corners of his mouth. You would have had a name for it... Of course he would have. Things need names, or at least designations. But her observation is a reminder that he's talking to someone who knows him; someone who's always found him fairly easy to predict, even as he struggled to return the favor. Even when he's thought she was wrong... ]

...What he's done. [ Softly, just. To confirm. ] I came here -- after losing consciousness. [ A little more distant: ] From the blood loss, I imagine.

[ He can't completely keep the wistfulness out of his voice, which is horrible he knows. But it was -- such a peaceful moment.

Dragging himself fiercely back to the present for her sake: ]

It's a strange place for a family reunion, but we're a strange pair to be having one.

[ He's not sorry to be here. He's not sorry to get to see you again. He seeks out Euphie's hand to squeeze. ]

[She learned of it some time ago, but still she fidgets hearing these details. It's happened then or it was in the process of happening. She's glad he's not distressed and yet...he should be distressed! He was dying! That shouldn't be a goal. He shouldn't sound so pleased with it!

She squeezes his hand back but then attaches for a full hug.] Don't ever do anything like that again! [A proclamation from a long-dead princess, and loving sister.]

	[ Lelouch is a bit startled by the sudden armful of sister. After a beat -- he smiles, faint, and brings his arms up around her. ] I'd only ever intended to do it the one time. [ are you not reassured??? ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Your one time is up. [Even if you're still alive and you could do it again. So that's an order.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Understood. [ Graciously accepting. He... strokes her hair a little, lightly. Something he might have done for Nunnally, if... they'd ever spoken about it. A funny little frisson as he wonders: or did they? ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[That's not something even Euphie could tell him. It's forgotten now either way. She'll just allow—enjoy—his gentle touch and return her own. It's good to have him back. She might even believe he'll stay at this rate.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[ He wouldn't ask. He might... ask very little, really, about what else she knows. How unlike him. But it's difficult to ask whether someone knows anything else potentially sensitive without... alerting them to the fact that there are still more things to know. More secrets, more ugly truths...

For now, he just holds her. Quiet. He has no intention of going anywhere -- but. Intention only goes so far in this place. ]
