Yuka smiled a bit wistfully. She wanted to express how she felt too... but she found she couldn't just say it directly like that. Part of it was the situation. But mostly... there were things she just couldn't say, the way things were now.

So for now she just gave Cirno's shoulders another squeeze, and hoped that it would convey her feelings somehow.

Yuka didn't say anything for a bit. She had plenty of theories about various things around here, but did she know anything that pointed to a course of action?

There was one thing.

"The towers. Lelouch told me that opening them would let almost everyone go home... but some would have to stay behind. And there was that insane stunt last week... I'm not sure how much I trust him, but the towers have to be important somehow. Do you know anything about them?"
