IC: Sometime amid amnesia madness

[thekingsgambit]

[Having left his sister in the company of those he deems trustworthy, Lelouch waits by the outskirts of the woods, nearer to the barrier than most care to venture -- probably for fear of accidents. He appears in better spirits than he had the other day and twirls one of his chess pieces idly in between his fingers, as he mentally counts down the minutes. Lateness is a non-issue.]

[ :( sighs, but doesn't withdraw hand]

Only if big brother promises he won't do anything dangerous. And only if big brother comes back soon... They say this place is dangerous at night.

[Tries to pull off a weak laugh.]

I never do anything too dangerous, now do I?

[shakes head at him and can't help but smiles a bit]

Big brother has an adventurous spirit, but please, I'm a bit more worried than usual.

[thekingsgambit.livejournal.com]

Because of our current circumstances? Do not worry. They will not be a problem much longer.

[Hopefully.]

[you are my hero, and you get hugged. :(]

[smiling a bit more]

No. Because of big brother's stubbornness.

[Pets hair.]

It has its advantages.

[laughs helplessly]

But it is a dangerous hobby.

[takes clay figures from him and poises them gently on her lap]

I will keep this until you are back.

[Holds one of her hands for a moment.]

Everything will be all right, Nunnally. Just concentrate on imagining a magnificent look for the both of them.

[hopeisblind.livejournal.com]

I will.

[squeezes his hand gently, not really wishing to let it go]

Come back soon, okay?

[thekingsgambit.livejournal.com]

Ah.

[And now we are off to test our power, which will, by the nature of the law that determines that everything hates Lelouch, mostly result in Lelouch blacking out somewheres when his memory returns. o/]

[Arrives not long after his collapse, and following a check of his vitals and an attempt to wake him, she carries him back to the cabin. He may not have tried to use Geass again that evening, but the time he did was concern enough. His power has a greater hold over him than she'd thought.]
