[ Footfalls are the first thing that can be heard. Weighted, antsy things that reflect upon the person responsible for their make and model. Hesitation is the hammer over the butt of the nail. It is a wonder Valeria doesn't clear her itching throat before she speaks. When the hammer falls, she manages ( Read more... )

[ Lelouch waits quietly on the other end for Valeria to get it all out of her system - the apologies, anyway. He'd been beginning to get a bit worried, truth to tell, but now that she's called him, at least she's safe. ]

Listen, don't... It's fine.

[ The Turk stirs in conjunction with the Survivor beneath the surface. ]

Understood. I'll be back within the hour, so don't wait up for me.

[ The Hitomi, having been made to adopt the form of a phone similar in make and model to that of the Turks' standard on Gaia, is flipped close as she turns her eyes to the moon overhead. ]

I guess it is late.

[ And with that, she moves forward again. ]
