[She looks up with a tiny smile -- recognizing the voice easily enough. The dream had its fair share of moments she'd rather forget, so the distraction is certainly a welcome one.]
It's wonderful to see you, Kay. I hope I didn't worry you, being asleep for so long!
[Kay's glad to see Euphie again, but she's still a little worried. Did these comas have after-effects? After all, Stitch was also asleep...and she's heard enough about everyone falling asleep for ages over the network.]
Your siblings...they were in the dream too, weren't they? Clovis, Schneizel, Nunnally...
[But yeah, it was not always a bed of roses. There were the not-so-good parts too...and now Kay feels more than a twinge of worry for Euphie and her brothers and sister.]
[She offers a slight nod in confirmation before her face is overtaken by a nostalgic smile.]
That's right. We were all very close as children -- Lelouch and my sister Cornelia as well. I... apologize that you had to see them in such a state, however. [This is in reference to the recounting of Marianne and Clovis' respective deaths, along with Nunnally's suffering.]
Then there's certainly no need for you to apologize either, Kay. The past is the past, and I'm just happy that we're together -- as a family -- once again.
[HI DRASTIC SHIFT TO EMBARRASSMENT.] O-Oh, no, it's nothing like that anymore. He's my Knight, and a wonderful one at that.
Yes. As a princess of the Holy Britannian Empire, it was necessary for me to choose a knight back at home. [Not that Suzaku was at the top of her family's list...]

I'm perfectly fine, Kay, I promise. [She pauses, a bit perplexed.] How does what feel?

Oh! It feels strangely normal, I suppose. I'm a bit sore, but other than that, things seem to be as they are after any other night's sleep.

Anyway...that dream...

[The less than cherished memories, on the other hand... no so much. Therefore it's certainly something she has extremely mixed feelings on.]

Is Suzaku from your world?

Mm. That's right. Suzaku is also from our world.

So...Suzaku's your boyfriend? [WELL NOW THAT'S ONE WAY TO PUT IT.]
