[it's kind of disorienting to wake up in an unfamiliar place, especially when you don't remember going to sleep at all. and it really feels like I've slept for forever.

blinks a little, confused when faced with a white ceiling, before looking around in an... empty room?]

H... hello? [oh... dry throat cough :(]

[swordofzero]

[He nodded.] One moment you were fine and the next you were unconscious. Lelouch has been here every day that I was his Player. He is worried.

[forthward]

Brother was... [man why do I always end up worrying him sob] Is he all right?

[swordofzero]

[Suzaku nodded again.] He is fine, though I am sure he will want to see you when you are able to get out of bed.

[forthward]

[smiles a little] I think that's for the best.

[swordofzero]

[More nodding.] Do you need anything else?

[forthward]

Do... you think you could stay here for a little?

[swordofzero]

[He nodded again and moved to sit on the chair next to the bed. Prepared to stay as long as she wanted.]

[forthward]

Suzaku-san... I'm sorry.

[swordofzero]

[He blinks at her apology and then after a moment nods.] I am sorry too Nunnally... [For so many things... but mainly for almost killing her with FLEIJA]

[forthward]

[shakes her head] You have nothing to be sorry about, Suzaku-san.

[swordofzero]

[He looked down, he did...] While you were unconscious, I regained a memory... I had forgotten that I had fired FLEIJA... You almost died because of my actions. [And all the other things, some more hazy than others.]

[forthward]

I'm not dead, Suzaku-san.

[swordofzero]

I know... [She wasn't, but millions of others were and she almost had been...] Yet you could have been...

[forthward]

[takes his hand :(]

But I'm not. And that's all in the past. Okay?

[swordofzero]

[Lets her take it because she's Nunnally, which brings him to...] Nunnally... this place seems to have taken us from different times. There are things I know that Lelouch doesn't. But... the last time I saw you you couldn't see... how did that happen?

[forthward]

[frowns at "Lelouch" but doesn't give it much thought otherwise]

Yes I... I think I'm farthest into the future of us all. But I got my sight back when Brother took the Key to Damocles.

[swordofzero]

Took the key... [So they had succeeded at least in getting that far.] I am glad, that you can see again.

[forthward]

I... [it's not the best memory, but] ...mhm. Me too.

[swordofzero]

[He nods, but he frowns again] Why... You fired FLEIJA, did Schneizel make you? [There was no point asking why when he didn't know why he himself had fired it.]

[forthward]

I... no.

... I did it because I didn't want anyone else shouldering the burden.

[swordofzero]

[No one else should... Suzaku blinked. So Nunnally took after her older brother, prepared to take all the sins of the world onto her shoulders in order to protect others.

She had grown up. Not just from the seven year old girl they had carried through the ruins of Japan but from the girl who he had met at Ashford. The last year had changed her, Suzaku felt guilty for that.]

You shouldn't have had to do that.

[forthward]

[shakes her head] I wanted to.

[swordofzero]

I know. [He knew all about taking sins onto yourself, still. Nunnally shouldn't have had to. The new world they were struggling to create, it was for Nunnally. A peaceful world for her.] What happened... after Lelouch took the key?

[forthward]

[SHE WOULDN'T CARE as long as they were all safe. ALL of them]

I... I tried to stop him, but it didn't work. He left.

[swordofzero]

[Suzaku nodded looking down] It was for the best... But I'm sorry... you should never have been involved.
