[ week 11, day 5 | accidental video ]
[ There's a sudden rustling of a body in an expansive field, not far from the place of the great tree. A woman with hair green and flowing like the grass all around her cracks open her eyes - a distinctive shade of gold, quite a contrast to her ghostly skin. The angle makes it hard to make out any other features, as the Hitomi is laying some ( Read more... )
You are quite correct about this place not being Kyoto, miss.
Welcome to Kannagara. You will probably be here for a while just giving you that little bit of heads up warning.

Of course I was. I didn't have any doubts of it.
[ She blinks those ethereal eyes once, twice, and offers a slight smile to Break, a lingering hint of condescension behind it. ]
The sentiment is appreciated, but I'm not concerned about that. So long as my partner is here, [ and he was, she could sense him wandering about the world that is not quite a world ] I'll be just fine.

How fortunate for you. In that case all that's left of this conversation is introductions
[a small bow to the Hitomi.]
I am Xerxes Break. At your service.

People have taken to calling me C.C., but I don't particularly care what form of address you use.
[ Break will receive no such display of politeness from C.C. if he's hoping for it. She simply continues to wear a tight-lipped smile. ]
At my service? Contracting yourself to me is a serious commitment. Consider that my warning to you.

[he raises an eyebrow at C.C. statement about contracts. Oh if she only knew how well he is acquainted with such pacts]
[still he flashes his harmless smile that is such a crucial part of his facade for those he meets for the first time]
Duly noted. Just offering my assistance should you ever need it in the future.

You're not fooling anybody with that sort of smile. Though I have to wonder what you're after, wooing others like that.
They may call me C.C., but they also call me witch, and they do so for a reason.

[there's something in his tone that says his definition of friend is WORLDS different from the standard convention of the term]
A witch? You mean the kind that eats naughty children at night?
[yes he is totally pulling your leg right now]

[ C.C. grins good-naturedly at the teasing, though. She's dealt with surly, villainous types before. So long as they don't try to pull her strings in particular, she's more than happy to play their game. ]
Oh, certainly. With lots of seasoning. I get so hungry and lonely, stewing in my cave over my cauldron.

Lonely? Even with your partner that is coming to pick you up as we speak? Or perhaps he is nothing more than a servant to you therefore he does not count in the equation?
Reply
Yes, but he's still such a boy. He refuses to do anything fun with me, anyway.
[ C.C. pouts. She wasn't lying about that; Lelouch was far too prudish for his own good. ]
Reply
[he's making it sound like he's talking about a dog, yep.]

I've got him trained well enough already, but he could always use more lessons. He's rather stubborn, just like a mutt. Cute, though.

[Break adores playing wordgames and it seems he's found quite the opponent this time]
[OOC: god these two will be the death of Lelouch's sanity and dignity XD]

[ Winkwink, nudgenudge. She's blowing smoke, but it's the suggestion that counts, right? She'll wrangle him one of these days. ]

[ A grin worthy of the Cheshire Cat himself follows. ]
I don't like children.
