Feeling awkward Suzaku nodded, it felt very strange usually he was the one vowing to protect others. He shifted slightly and nodded, but it felt strange to accept the vow in silence, "Thank you, and I promise to serve you as best I can as long as you want me," there that made it slightly less weird. At least the vow was two sided now.

At the knights dark look and request to meet him at the Pale dormetories Suzaku nodded, he didn't want to talk. This was awkward enough as it was and once Gino found out what had happened and how Suzaku had joined with Lelouch he would hate him all over again.

He looked at the little girl, and she really was little, as she spoke. He felt a surge of anger again at this system that had stolen even this little girl and brought her here. She was right in one thing though, why was Gino calling him seven? Suzaku thought back and realised Gino hadn't called him by name at all since they'd arrived, maybe he had forgotten it.

"Hello miss," he said with a polite smile towards Mei.
