[ So Splendor, remember Lelouch? Tall kid, dorky haircut, can’t run to save his life? Also has a thing for maintaining a cold, aloof, I-don’t-care attitude toward everything an’ anything? Yeah. He’s not here.

Big brother Lelouch is though and he’s currently over there, standing at the kitchen counter, stirring cake batter. That’s right. He’s

[CAKE? cake! Toru loves cake! He's totally going to get some--]

[not here] 2/?

[lowexposure]

[But wait, these are strangers. Sibling-strangers. To do that would probably cause a problem or something.

And there's probably a lot of people going for cake, too.]

[not here -> voice] 3/3 actually that wasn't as long as i though it'd be

[lowexposure]

[The troubles in life. Hijiri'll definitely laugh at him later if he catches wind of this. Cake > Minimal Exposure (for now again)

so, voice is a go because videos are always awkward. hear that door closing? yeah, he's gonna. wander around a bit. looking for the cake. and its bakers.]

What kind of cake did you make?

[voice]

[grand_theatrics]

[...Sigh. Why didn't he see this coming?]

Chocolate. I suppose I know why she wanted me to bake a larger cake now...

[voice]

[lowexposure]

[Cake is to be shared, Lelouch! You couldn't have hogged it all to yourself and your sister!]

Sounds like you'll have a lot left over. Do you mind if a stranger has a piece?

[voice]

[grand_theatrics]

[Maybe they wouldn't be noodle people anymore if they hogged it all.]

You might as well. I'm staying in Murlberry Castle, when you're ready.

[voice]

[lowexposure]

[Well, that's true. Continue to eat your pizza, pigs.]

When I find a map or something, I guess I'll be over. I'll leave right after.

[-- And an afterthought. You can't take cake without giving your name first. That's rude.]

I'm Toru, by the way.

[voice]

[grand_theatrics]

[They will. c:]

If you require directions, I'd be willing to give them to you.

[Oh right--]

Lelouch. It's a pleasure to meet you.

[voice]

[lowexposure]

I'm already bothering you for a piece of cake, I can find my way around.

[Committing that name to memory because Lelouch = Cake.]

Likewise.

[voice]

[grand_theatrics]

Suit yourself. It's not hard to find your way around, so perhaps you'll be joining us soon.

[voice > action]

[lowexposure]

Save a piece.

[Aaand that's off. Gonna check out the map at the city hall, trace that pathway through to Murlberry Castle, and he's off.

Of course, actually getting there is another thing entirely. He'll be arriving not-so-soon and knocking at the door.]

[action] your icons are adorable xD

[grand_theatrics]

[aaand he's not surprised when Toru knocks on the door. He wanders over and opens it, looking just a tad bit more pleasant than he had sounded earlier.]

I assume you're Toru?

[action] thanks 'u' a friend colored them for me.

[lowexposure]

[You'll be looking down at him, Lulu-boy, because he's shorter than the average guy. Alas. The fate of shortcakes.]

Yeah. Do you mind if I sit down?

[action] *_*

[grand_theatrics]

Of course. There's seating in the kitchen, if you'd like to wait there with Nunnally.

[He's moving out of the way, and gesturing to where the kitchen is.]

[action] they're just the prettiest! ♥

[lowexposure]

Thanks.

[Into the kitchen then, and sitting a bit away from Nunnally with a nod to her. Courtesy courtesy.]

[action] :DDD

[busybeingblind]

[ D-Doesn’t see the nod, but she smiles at the new guest. ]

Hello, I’m Nunnally. [ And she makes a small gesture over at the pan of cake off to the side, some of it obviously gone by now but plenty still to go around. ] Hope you’re hungry, Lelouch made the best cake.
