[Like when Suzaku first arrived, he's once again wearing his Zero costume. Except this time, he has the helmet on him, which hides the fact that his eyes are closed over. Mere seconds ago, he had been listening to the Empress talk about her new plan to tackle poverty in the areas that were hit the hardest during the war.]I can't see why the other

Uh. Think you just blew your secret identity there.

[sword_of_zero]

[aettir]

Wait, seriously? I didn't mean that!

[aettir]

[sword_of_zero]

Back in my world, the symbolism behind the mask is more than keeping any identity secret. [Though with him it's pretty important that he doesn't reveal who he is back home.]

[aettir]

... so you, what, wear it to represent something?

[sword_of_zero]

[aettir]

What, so you never take it off when you're out of here?
