The events of the past week have shown us a great deal more than had before been seen or known of. Evidently, residencies such as my own, as well as the bathhouse and the inn, were visited by the fae. Do we have any other marked occurances? Taking note of anything that happened these past few days seems necessary for future reference. The fae that ( Read more... )

I have already explained quite a bit to him, although I left out the facts surrounding certain deaths he had no need to know of yet. I see no reason to continue hiding my true name, considering Nunnally's arrival and I had planned on revealing it sooner, but someone apparently felt it necessary to remove me from this stage.

Do as you feel necessary, although I would advise waiting to speak to him under the circumstances.

So, you went ahead with that plan.

[After a moment, he gives a little sigh, something soft. The situation is a regrettable one.]

I had hoped you'd see sense, Lelouch, but if you wish to set the pieces this way, then I shall make my move accordingly.

Re: Locked to Schneizel power_of_kings July 24 2010, 21:46:16 UTC

I told him who I was and some of what has occurred. I did not mention anything regarding Euphemia or Shirley, merely my part in events that he would have come to be aware of eventually anyway. He's aware of some of what happens later but again, not every detail.

I see. Much remains hidden, then.

That would depend on your definition of chess.

[video] akingmuststand July 24 2010, 21:31:18 UTC

Simply a game. Does that differ for you?

[video] karazhan July 24 2010, 21:32:28 UTC

Considering the differences in a lot of things, I would not be surprised if others thought it were more than a mere game of chess.

[video] akingmuststand July 24 2010, 21:34:05 UTC

Not in these circumstances, certainly.

... Highness?

[Private to Schneizel] akingmuststand July 24 2010, 21:28:05 UTC

[Lelouch's gambit complicates things. The subject is a more difficult thing to bring up, now, over other things.

But it presents him with opportunity, also. There's a chance this may just turn things in his favour.

The knight is a useful piece, after all.]

Suzaku.

[He speaks seriously, sombre. But there is earnestness in his voice. Honesty. He lets the name hang for a moment before continuing.

He'd been planning to cut straight to the chase, but now, with Lelouch making the opening...]

It seems we are cloaked in lies, does it not?

[Private to Schneizel] aknightmustrise July 24 2010, 21:32:10 UTC

... Why didn't anybody tell me? You knew about this, you knew Lelouch was Zero?

[Private to Schneizel] akingmuststand July 24 2010, 21:37:11 UTC

[And things grow tauter, more difficult. He must be careful - Lelouch must have alienated him with the news. It's his chance to pull him in completely.

He could lie, of course. State that he does not remember, that he hasn't seen as much. But such an outright lie would be useless here. No. What he needs is to provide a little truth. A suggestion of it, something Suzaku can grasp on to, cling to.]

I suspected so. I admit, I have kept my suspicions from you, and kept my counsel close.

I ask your forgiveness in that, Suzaku. My intent was not to needlessly hide things from you - rather, I wished to wait and see what moves Lelouch made here.

I can play chess... Kinda. Haven't done it in a while but... Yeah.

S'North by the way in case you forgot.

[Voice] akingmuststand July 24 2010, 21:31:58 UTC

I had not forgotten. I am glad to find you well, North. Perhaps we can have a game.

[Voice] north_skie July 24 2010, 21:32:48 UTC

Yeah... So... How do you feel about being competitive?

[Voice] akingmuststand July 24 2010, 21:37:58 UTC

I play to win, certainly.

I am here good Prince, forgive my silence until now, I was lost in my own pages.

We must put the information out as soon as possible, if you still feel it is relevant to future newcomers and residents alike.

[Audio] akingmuststand July 24 2010, 21:39:47 UTC

Understood, Thanatos. I am merely grateful to know that you are still with us.

Then let us go over it once more and make what additions we can.

[Audio] mem_more_rakke July 24 2010, 21:45:33 UTC

Of course, when ever you are ready. I will make myself available as soon as you have the time.
