Stealing first tag?

Iggy's hearing picked up immediately how her voice had changed, heard the cup slip from her fingers to topple on the table, and was at her side in an instant, his chair clattering carelessly to the floor. In his haste, he miscalculated the distance and bashed his knees against her chair, but panic drowned out the pain at the sound of Nunnally's distress.

He cursed his eyes to every disheartening place he could think of as his hands hovered, trembling, over her body, unsure of whether he could touch her and not knowing what was going on. If only he could see...

Without his ever being aware, his wings had extended almost protectively, curving over his back and around her.

"Nunnally," he pleaded. "Nunnally, what is it? Damn it, I can't... Nunnally."

Lelouch didn't hear the cup shatter, didn't see the liquid spill. All he could hear, all he could see was Nunnally, his sister, his raison d'être, falling helpless and pained again. Just like before. Just like when she had almost died.

He might have screamed, he might have roared, if only he had the breath, his chest tightened and his eyes widened, and he could only scramble for her as he saw the droplets of blood on her lips.

"Nunnally. No, no, no..."

This couldn't be happening. It couldn't. It had never-- She was fine! She was from before, she was supposed to go back, she was supposed to live, live in that kinder world, that kinder world that he had made... made for her, made for all those left in the ruins of his life
