[Usually keeps his distance but is genuinely worried about Kamui's state since the other day when he returned to the main part of camp looking absolutely miserable. Thus, his monitoring might be slightly more noticeable than usual as he lingers close by.]

[emocalypse]

Oh!

Ah... Lelouch...?

[thekingsgambit]

[Not. As. Planned.

Startles a bit.]

[emocalypse]

[gets up, goes over]

Are you all right? I was...worried...

[thekingsgambit]

[For a moment he looks even more frantic, but as Kamui completes the approach without any signs of disturbance, he starts to lose some of his earlier tension.]

... Ah, I am all right. At the moment, however, I am more concerned about you.

[emocalypse]

...I'm...

fine.

[thekingsgambit]

[I disbelieve.]

Kamui, why are you here by yourself?

[emocalypse]

Eh?

Ah... It's not that far...

[thekingsgambit]

No, but you do not look as though you would do better to not be by yourself right now.

[emocalypse]

...I'm okay.

[thekingsgambit]

Kamui.

[Very much has to resist urge to reach out to him.]

[emocalypse]

I'm okay. It's... I knew it would happen. A-and...I'll see him again.

[thekingsgambit]

... Ah. So he left.

[emocalypse]

[nod]

[thekingsgambit]

[I... really want to hug you right now. But... I can't risk it activating something.

Digs his nails into his palms.

Kamui...]

Perhaps it is better that way. It gives you time to come up with a way to reach him.

[Without you fighting in the meantime.]

[emocalypse]

He finds me. He always has.

...And when we meet again, we'll have to fight. This was the only place...!
