[Hello! I'm sorry, are you talking? Because Euphemia doesn't hear you there. She is really sound asleep and only curls into a tighter ball, muttering something softly as she does so.]
[Hm? Sleeping that deeply, hm? She sighs a bit and looks around. Well, no one has seen Euphemia so far, but leaving her alone to sleep was out of the question. Naoto sets the books down and crouches down next to the sleeping girl]
Hmm...? [Her eyes flutter open a little and she peers at Naoto in confusion. It slowly dawns on her and she blinks more awake.]
Oh! [Loudly. She winces and quickly lowers her voice.] Oh, Naoto. I must've... [Well, that was obvious. She glances at her unfinished work sheepishly.] I fell asleep while working. That's terrible.
[As is usual, Patchy is in the library. She is looking through the stack of books, muttering to herself, paying little mind to the one sleeping in the chair nearby...]
That book has to be here... wasn't on the shelf, and it was checked in, according to the catalog... This library has horrible organization, I swear...
[had only come to the library to find something on their planet (and how pizza hut had anything to do with ... well, anything). was not expecting to find a sleeping princess napping. good thing a kururugi can never be unprepared for these things, and was well equipped with zero's helmet (taking a moment to mentally thank whatever god or goddess saved him this time).
he sees these stacks of books. he eyes them behind the mask. as much as he doesn't want to wake sleeping beauty there, suzaku finds that ... maybe he should. into which he just stands by one of the stacks, as -- shaking her would make him feel bad. as a matter of fact, waking her up period is going to make him feel bad, but. zero's gotta do what zero's gotta do.
so he reaches out and gives her shoulder a small, gentle shake.]
[She mutters something indistinguishable as she wakes, blinking her eyes open slowly. For a brief instant she peers confusedly at the masked figure. Then her eyes snap wide open and she hastily sits up with a loud gasp. The book falls from her lap with a soft thud.]
[takes his hand away, then, and watches the book fall before looking back to euphemia. is actually dropping to one knee now to pick it up. it still irks him slightly that she knew lelouch was zero, and didn't tell him --
-- but that was the past, and this is euphie. suzaku could never stay irked or any assortment of negativity towards her. nonetheless:] I apologize; I didn't mean to do so -- here. [holding the book out to her from his kneeling position. ahh.]
[Ahh my knight. ♥ If only she knew it was you, Suzaku. Don't think she hasn't been missing you terribly ever since she got here. She wants to see him so badly and here he is, kneeling right in front of her, and she has no idea.
Except at the moment where suddenly... she feels a strange deja vu. She blinks at the proffered book. She reaches and takes it slowly with both hands, gripping the edges with strange uncertain. She's staring hard at him...]
It's all right. I shouldn't have been sleeping here... Thank you.

[Ah, well, it couldn't hurt to just take a closer look at it, right? Karen sits on the floor next to the chair and picks up the book, glancing briefly up at Euphie before she starts.]
[Ever since the incident with the book of memories, Fai scoured the library every so often, just to make sure no new dangerous books arrived...that would be more unfortunate. Although, in his search, he did not find any dangerous magical tomes, but rather a rather harmless, sleeping princess.]
[He couldn't help but chuckle softly and kneel down beside her. For a few moments, he simply just watches her, but then decides to brush a stray strand of hair out of her face.]

Lel-- [She stops herself. Oh. Right...] A-Ah... um. Zero. I'm sorry, you startled me.

Meanwhile Euphie curls into a tighter ball and mutters something in her sleep, oblivious.]

Now please enjoy your epic story!
Or enjoy while you can before Euphie will eventually wake up and stare at you in confusion.]
Karen?

Heh...Such an odd place to sleep, Princess...

Fai's voice successfully rouses her and she blinked her eyes open wider, blushing in embarrassment.] A-Ah?! Fai!

[He smiles softly, brushing his hand against her cheek.]
How did you sleep?

I slept well... although I shouldn't have been sleeping at all. [She smiles sheepishly.] I'm suppose to be working.
