Swallow Your Pride [Closed]
Who: Schneizel el Britannia and Suzaku Kururugi
Where: Schneizel's Office
When: Backdated slightly to Tuesday, November 29th
What: Suzaku knows he's not going to master the Patronus charm in time, so he seeks out help coming up with alternatives.
Rating: I don't see this any higher than PG. PG-13 at the worst
[Suzaku stood outside the door to Schneizel's office for a good minute or two, debating whether or not to go in. He needed the help, of course, but whether Schneizel would give it and at what cost were certainly on his mind. As far as Schneizel last knew, he and Suzaku were enemies of a sort.
Not that Suzaku held any particular animosity towards the 2nd Prince. The two of them actually had a good working relationship for the most part, not to mention that Schneizel always treated him with the same respect he did of any of his other soldiers, and was one of the few members of the Royal family who never referred to him as "The Eleven". But once Suzaku committed himself to the Zero Requiem and the battle lines got redrawn, the two of them ended up on opposite sides.
But now things have changed again, and once again they're on the same side. He didn't think Schneizel to be the type to hold a grudge, but the type to wait to the right moment to shove him under a bus if it suited his needs? Sure. But he couldn't afford to keep his distance any longer.
Straightening up, Suzaku knocked on the door, some part of him feeling like he was betraying Lelouch just by doing so.]
Your Highness, do you have a minute?
