Your most obvious weakness (Active)
Character(s): Kallen (nishiki_knight), Schneizel (schneitzelbank)
Location: Platform 7, Train 4, Compartment 7
Content: A certain second prince pays a late, late afternoon visit to his second favorite redhead. On the other hand, this is one first date Kallen Kouzuki only wishes she could miss.
Warnings: Thinly-veiled animosity and Geassmindgames?
A world within worlds, Schneizel el Britannia found himself thinking as he strode down the platforms and hallways, past compartments and old, forlorn debris. No...rather a world outside a world, or a world overlapping worlds. A place where there was no future or present, no past or Heaven. No hell, either, for that matter. A place so desolate and devoid of dreams, perhaps no point in even lying.
I'm starting to sound like my father, he thought with a faint smile, catching himself before his mind could travel too far down the path of abstract theorizing. It did one no good to absorb oneself in the realms of fancy and the supernatural; it blinded a man against what in life was truly important. Against the duties and responsibilities a man had to carry out inside reality.
That there may not be any real "responsibilities" in a foreign place where his title held no power did not bother Schneizel in the slightest--if anything, it only intrigued him further to discover the presence of individuals from 'timelines' prior to his--individuals such as Kouzuki Kallen and Suzaku who held no knowledge of the future, Schneizel's present. Or was it 'past'?
...then again, the knowledge of the differing timelines was a double-edged sword. One that anyone could easily lie about to manipulate. Schneizel would keep that in mind as well, and though he had yet to determine exactly how much he could trust any of the individuals from his world--Suzaku included, if not especially--he was not yet powerless to find out. Hence the meeting with Kouzuki Kallen...despite her better judgment, and perhaps...his.
He came up to the door she mentioned, taking one brief, cursory look at his surroundings so as to better memorize its location for the future before knocking. He did so calmly and deliberately--no need to rush; the monsters were but trifling disturbances in comparison to what he had on his mind now. Death or physical injury was not so much an issue to Schneizel in this situation; after all, were he dead and powerless, he would be worth just as much to his society as he would be alive and fearfully ignorant.
Knock-knock.
