IC: Curious chibi is curious

[After a long day of story-telling, dragon-baiting and generally being a contentious little chibi, we find young Lelouch waking up in the wee hours of morning with a parched throat, a result of the weather and his lousy constitution. Following a quick check on his little sister, curled close beside him, he cautiously slips out of the bed to make his way to the common room. Stealthily. He even makes it all the way room -- before a pair of early riser kittens find their way underfoot and his grab for the chair is rather poor planned. It soon finds its way down with him. This is why it's always such a great idea to attempt a "midnight" snack in a cabin full of hair-trigger sleepers. orz]
... we didn't have that many cats...

Date: 2008-11-06 04:16 am (UTC)[Looks up quickly from his spot on the floor, a leg momentarily pinned under the chair while kittens wrestle each other a few feet away.
And immediately looks down again, contrite and speaks in a low tone.]
... I wanted to find something to drink.

no subject
Date: 2008-11-06 04:33 am (UTC)It wasn't something dangerous. I didn't leave the cabin.
no subject
Date: 2008-11-06 04:37 am (UTC)Come. Get up.
no subject
Date: 2008-11-06 04:54 am (UTC)Do you think it woke anyone else?
no subject
Date: 2008-11-06 10:36 pm (UTC)It's pointless to worry about it now. Besides, were they bothered enough to mind, they'd have already made it clear.
[.. then checks the time on the digital wall clock with a scowl that she fades to blank once facing Lelouch again.]
Stay here.

no subject
Date: 2008-11-07 01:36 am (UTC)You shouldn't drink the water available here in the cabin and I don't want you venturing out on your own. Stay put, Lelouch, and keep an eye on Nunnally. You know how she'll react if she wakes only to discover that we're both gone.

Date: 2008-11-07 02:07 am (UTC)[Equally without thought, she allows her hand to be guided away from her shoulder, bare again from the motion, but chases it with a swift, soft exhalation and a demand — unmistakably a demand.]
It is nothing, Lelouch. Let go.

Date: 2008-11-07 02:59 am (UTC)Come now. Your concern is unnecessary.
no subject
Date: 2008-11-07 03:07 am (UTC)... Did that happen here? Is that why you were worried about the rules again?
no subject
Date: 2008-11-07 03:13 am (UTC)Enough, Lelouch.
no subject
Date: 2008-11-07 03:21 am (UTC)Is this place more dangerous than before?
no subject
Date: 2008-11-07 03:23 am (UTC)no subject
Date: 2008-11-07 03:30 am (UTC)I don't understand. You were attacked... And the one on your shoulder -- Did something happen at home?
no subject
Date: 2008-11-07 03:45 am (UTC)Nothing that you need to worry about. All right?
no subject
Date: 2008-11-07 03:55 am (UTC)Why won't you tell me? Elder sister is in charge of the guards...

... Do they still hurt?
no subject
Date: 2008-11-07 04:26 am (UTC)They have healed.

Date: 2008-11-07 04:38 am (UTC)Does Euphie know?

Date: 2008-11-07 05:18 am (UTC)You are much too kind..
[.. then removes her hands from Lelouch's shoulders for the close.]
And I am not alone. Don't worry.

Date: 2008-11-07 05:31 am (UTC)You have your knight.

Date: 2008-11-07 05:38 am (UTC)And you have yet to get your drink.

Date: 2008-11-07 05:43 am (UTC)[Breaks off as he notices her looking away]
no subject
Date: 2008-11-07 05:48 am (UTC)On Nunnally?
no subject
Date: 2008-11-07 06:07 am (UTC)I wasn't supposed to be gone this long. She might be getting cold. These cabins aren't warm enough for her.
