Waking up!

Characters: Lelouch vi Britannia, friends and family
Format: Prose preferred, but will tag back however you tag
This log is: Open to chars close to Lulu/his player and fellow weapons
Location: Fortitude infirmary
Summary: Waking up from his coma, and finding a surprise
Warnings: Raeg

It was highly inconvenient timing that put him in this bed. He didn't know nor care about what glitch that did it. He was going to dismantle it all the same.

But he didn't really have time to digest that right away. Because the first thing he saw when he woke up was Britannia's sleeping face. He made a most undignified squawk, and struggled to free himself, but she was quite well attached. He tried to shove at her, but he only had one arm free. "Britannia! Wake up!" It was nearly an order.

And in her dream, the tiny little bunny she was holding her arms batted at her with its floppy ears.

At Lelouch's (rather amusing) noise, Britannia's eyes slowly opened, boring into his. After a long, slow blink as the realization of where she was and what was happening started to sink in, she gave a low sigh and, quite frankly? Nuzzled him a moment longer before pulling back, yawning.

Guess this means my vacation is over. She thought blankly, drawing away to the edge of the bed and stretching.

"Good morning." She finally added, smiling at him innocently.

Once she finally let him go, he moved as far from her as he could without falling out of the bed. "How long have you been there?" He reached to the bedside table and successfully discovered his PDA there. He started looking through the things he may have missed while awaiting her explanation.
countryofassholes: (is definitely a sign of love.)

[personal profile] countryofassholes 2012-03-16 07:17 am (UTC)(link)
What a warm greeting, she absently noted as she watched him scuttle away to grab his PDA. Not that she had expected any less if she were being honest, but still. How inconsiderate did you have to be to not even say hello?

As she pulled her own PDA out of her pocket to check the time, she gave a little shrug and answered after a moment: "A few hours."

He nodded at her response. "Three days..." He muttered, answering the question of how long he was out by using the timestamps on the network posts. Obnoxious...

Since he felt fine, he swung his legs out of bed and went to collect his uniform that had been neatly folded nearby.

"Suzaku was pretty upset when he found out." She added as she straightened her own clothes and fixed her hair, both of which had been rumpled by the nap. "But he wasn't allowed to visit since he's a weapon."

Although she decided not to mention that she hadn't been dropping by as frequently as she should have been either. That would be her own little secret.

He nodded. "As I expect he should be." Not that he cared about the frequency of her visits.

He began to change behind one of the privacy curtains for one of the other beds. His silhouette could be vaguely seen on the fabric. "I'll let everyone know I'm awake once I leave here."
countryofassholes: (bestow the power of love unto us.)

Her appearance neatened considerably, Britannia began fixing the bed up, arranging the sheets properly before taking a seat on the edge. Though her eyes flickered once to the silhouette, she returned her gaze to the wall across from her and gave a little sigh.

She really need to make him eat more. He was so.... skinny.

"Let's stop by the cafeteria too." She added casually with a yawn. "I wouldn't mind a cup of tea."

As though on cue, his stomach growled. He sighed. "Very well." When he emerged, he was meticulously reassembled, save for his hair. He went into the washroom to do the best job he could with his hair, using his fingers as the only tool available. He seemed to be used to this, after a couple years of mitigating helmet head, and he looked almost normal. His prefect's hat was the last detail missing.

A detail Britannia plonked crookedly onto his head before sliding her arms around his shoulders and making herself comfortable.

"It's kind of amazing." She added, looking at their reflection. "You're going to cause so much chaos and ruin, and I could snap your neck right now." She remarked absently in a kind of voice one would use to remark on the weather.

Her comment seemed to make no change in his face. "It'd be meaningless for you do do that." He fixed his hat to where he wanted it, and pushed on her arms to free himself.

Allowing herself to be pushed away, she gave a laugh and folded her hands behind her back, treating him to a pleasant smile. "I've told you before, haven't I? Nations don't kill their bosses." She reminded him, voice lightly condescending like that of a parent lecturing their child.

"I was just thinking how fragile you really are."

That last comment got under his skin. He was not powerless. Not utterly. Even without his Geass, and even in a place that could even make him no longer exist if it wanted to, he was not powerless. It may be stubbornness, or denial. But if he were to give that up, he may as well give up entirely. Charles' voice on the day they were exiled rang through his head, causing a slight hitch in his shoulders.

"Do not say that to me ever again," he replied, a bit of a bite in his voice. It was definitely an order.
countryofassholes: (be free and happy!)

[personal profile] countryofassholes 2012-03-20 03:49 am (UTC)(link)
Well that's new.

For a moment she considered the order and the man who had given it to her, wondering what she had done to warrant such a thing. That Lelouch didn't like her was no secret between the two of them. (Nor to anyone else who paid any attention to them.) But he usually took such painstaking care to treat her with at least some civility, if only to make it seem like they were equals to the outside world. So this sudden hostility came as something of a surprise to her.

Then again, he was Britannian, so even he must have some pride in his strength, right? Her statement must have been viewed as offensive, hence, his hostility. With that curiosity solved (as far as she was concerned, anyway) she replied in slightly contrite tones: "As you wish."

He didn't say anything further about that point, and headed out of the room. His posture seemed to return to normal. He busied himself on his PDA as they headed down to the cafeteria.
countryofassholes: (the flower that bloomed.)

[personal profile] countryofassholes 2012-03-20 04:29 am (UTC)(link)
And thus they fell back into routine. Lelouch doing his absolute best to ignore her while Britannia did her absolute best to make sure he wasn't killed by a bee sting. Or by tripping on a flight of stairs. Or by stepping onto a rake.

(You get the idea.)

"Back to work." She murmured softly to herself.
