Three, Lelouch needs to pick Nanami's brain.
Fourth, there is an opportunity for Fortitude students to come hang out and get some CR with your prefect.
Warnings: Manipulations imminent.

Arena Tower
Lelouch didn't delay when the monster had been defeated. He collected Suzaku, and led him into the tower. The weapons in the bottom floor caught his attention first. He stepped up to them and took up a rifle. He messed with the mechanism briefly before he seemed prepared to move on. You'll be leading the way, right Suzaku?

Prefect's Headquarters: Lelouch's room
Following the battle, and the exploration of the tower, Lelouch needed rest. Whatever his own mind would allow, anyway. He knew what steps would soon follow, but he needed more information. He needed to talk with Nanami. But that would wait until his mind was clear again. He could not deal with her in any less than prime condition.

Prefect's Headquaters: Nanami's room - The day after
Lelouch needed to collect on a debt, and now was as good a time as any. He left his room and walked over to Nanami's, with a few questions ready for her.

Fortitude Cafeteria - Later in the week
He had a sour look on his face as Lelouch looked over the options before him. He didn't feel right, and looking at the options before him just made his stomach turn in protest. He supposed he was going to have to cook something later. Cooking for one was a hassle. He supposed he'd take some over to Conquest later.

For now, he picked up a pear and a bottle of water before settling in at a table. He made a mental note to check in on Britannia later. She was worthy of that much at least. He'd be a liar if he said he wasn't enjoying the break from her "protection".

"I guess..." Suzaku on the other hand had many issues with the idea that these could be trapped residents, people he had known and spoken to. He didn't say anything though, just led the way silently. Many more floors of the same followed.

[veepofchess]

Lelouch lagged behind by a flight or two by the time they reached the top floor. He strapped the rifle across his torso and put his hands on his knees to catch his breath once he'd reached the top. No matter how determined he was, five flights of stairs at a run was more than he could deal with. But he looked around as he panted, taking in their new surroundings. One-way mirrors, headed outward? Interesting. He walked over to a window sill, and took in the view. From here he could see nearly the entire island.

After another moment, and he had pulled himself together again, he turned toward the panels. "Two more panels," he told Suzaku. "They appear to function the same as the others."

[swordofzero]

Suzaku waited patiently for Lelouch to catch his breath again looking around himself. The view was impressive, he could see the entire city, including the other five towers. He assumed the goal was to open all of them. He looked at the panels. "Only two this time," he went over to look closer.

[veepofchess]

Lelouch found himself on the opposite side of the panels from Suzaku. He lifted his hand, and gave his knight a look that clearly communicated what he intended to do. It was another risk. But after they'd come so far...

[swordofzero]

Suzaku frowned but nodded, it was a risk but they had come this far and risks were sometimes necessary. He stood waiting, sword still held at his side, ready in case this summoned another creature.
