[canon] It's like the pizza fairy... only not
Between C.C. and his crazy ninja maid, Lelouch really is going to have an aneurysm one day...
Bokura no Hibi ~12th Period Hour~

Lelouch: What's going on...? That's some awful clatter coming from the kitchen...
[Opens door]
Lelouch: Sayoko-san, would you mind preparing tea-- whoa, what are you doing?
Sayoko: Oh, Lelouch-sama. My apologies about the ruckus.
Lelouch: Well, I don't mind the noise, but... why exactly are you setting up a shelf over there?
Sayoko: I wanted a proper place for my offerings...... or is that not all right?
Lelouch: I don't really mind. It's kind of like a household altar, isn't it?
Sayoko: Oh, I didn't think you'd know about those. Especially since you'd be hard put to find one nowadays, even in the homes of Elevens.
Lelouch: Well, I... I just happened to know.
Sayoko: I'm not really a believer in the gods of Area 11, though. I suppose it's just my cultural background speaking, since I seem to have been building this shelf in the likeness of an altar without even realizing it myself.
Lelouch: I see. So what will go on it? Sake and rice cakes?
Sayoko: Oh no, not those indeed. I'll be offering this [clank] and this [clank].
Lelouch: Cheese... and Tomato sauce......
Sayoko: Yes, that's right.
Lelouch; Sa, Sayoko-san?
Sayoko: Yes?
Lelouch: Whom are these offerings for?
Sayoko: Well, it's a little difficult to explain...
Lelouch: Please do.
Sayoko: I've noticed that the cheese and tomato products in our inventory have been diminishing at an alarming rate lately.
Lelouch: Guh...... Perhaps you used them and forgot about it?
Sayoko: There's simply too much missing for that explanation to hold. And because only certain foodstuffs are affected, I am quite sure rats and other such pests have nothing to do with it.
Lelouch: I-I see.
Sayoko: [with a completely straight face] Lelouch-sama. Please do not make light of this matter. There is... something... here with us in this house.
Lelouch: ......
Sayoko: Still, I'm not getting any malicious vibes from it, so I've decided to take the initiative and provide 'it' with its own share, separate from ours. I'll just put them here on this shelf, like this... and tell it, 'If you are truly good and kind, please watch over Nunnally-sama and Lelouch-sama and keep them safe from harm.' [smile]
Lelouch: Uh......
Lelouch: [thinking] Is this a subtle hint from her, telling me she knows? Or did she mean every word, and I'm just being paranoid over an innocent, simple-minded act? I can't tell! I can't read her expression at all! If she's already noticed something, I'll have to deal with her quickly... should I risk it and Geass her into answering my questions...?
Lelouch: ...no wait, I can't! I've already used it on her!
Sayoko: Is something the matter, Lelouch-sama?
Lelouch: N-No, nothing at... all...
