Video 003 - A rude awakening

[seishiromustdie]

[There it was just sitting there. A large pumpkin taking up most of the space of a bed. Not too far from the bed was a dark haired young man, glaring at the starchy vegetable. His blue eyes were red and there were dark circles underneath them as if he had been woken up abruptly. The brunette eyes narrowed, his blue eyes acting as daggers as he

[Lelouch is a bit surprised to see the large pumpkin sitting on the bed of a young man who looks.... far too much like himself. A bit bothered by this, he brushes it off, setting it aside to address at a later date.]

The blame, most likely, lies on Somarium and the various supernatural things we see from time to time. That pumpkin looks far to large for one of the residents to have easily carried to your bedroom.

[ooc: Despite all of the conversations we've had about these two, I don't think they've actually interacted ICly before.... Correct me if I'm forgetting something, though.]

[seishiromustdie]

[The other's answer was very logical, and it probably was the truth. But the vampire wasn't really pleased with the answer. If he accepted that, then no one was to blame. And that meant there was no one to take his anger out.

Well...there was something he could take it out on.]

...that seems to be the case.

[Calming down, and looking over at the dreamberry. Kamui does notice that the other had a resemblance to him, but this acknowledgement doesn't show on his face. He was still pretty grouchy from being woken up so abruptly, and that wasn't going to change anytime soon.]

But this can't go unpunished. You wouldn't know how to make pumpkin pie, would you?

[zerointegrity]

[Lelouch can't help but smile a bit, amused at how grouchy and upset the other young man was over the pumpkin. But, if truth be told, he would probably be just as irritated, if not more so, had the same thing happened to him.]

I do, actually. It's been a while since I've had the opportunity to do anything in the kitchen, though.

[seishiromustdie]

...If you can provide one, that would be helpful.

[Honestly, he was just looking forward to cutting into the nuisance. If something useful can come from getting out his frustration than all the better.]

...And I can't seem to ignore something else. I know I'm not the only one that noticed.

[zerointegrity]

If you'd like me to teach you how to bake a pumpkin pie, I certainly can. I'll have to check my schedule, but I should be free most afternoons.

[His smile widens, chuckling a bit]

Not the only one that noticed what?

[seishiromustdie]

...I'm not that interested in baking.

[He looks at you sternly.]

...an uncanny resemblance.

[zerointegrity]

Ah, it is quite strange, isn't it? I don't think any of my siblings resemble me as much as you do. [He smiles] If your eyes were a little darker, or mine a bit lighter, we would be identical.

[seishiromustdie]

Identical? Perhaps.[Kamui wasn't ready to declare that,but this person did resemble him quite a bit. Just as the other had noted, the only thing that kept them from being identical were the hues of their eyes.]

...I wonder. If what that witch said was true. That we share souls with other selves.You could be that.

[zerointegrity]

Sharing souls with other selves? [He raises an eyebrow] I don't believe I've ever heard that. What witch told you this and did she go into any more detail?

[seishiromustdie]

The witch? She goes by many aliases, but she's well known as Yuuko, the dimensional time witch.

[Placing a hand under his chin as if deep in thought.] As for the sharing of souls, I think from staying in Somarium you've come to realize that there are many worlds out there. Sometimes, a world may have another version of yourself. A person who has lived different circumstances and lived through varied experiences than yourself. However, you are linked to this person, through their soul. It is you, but it isn't you at the same time.

[zerointegrity]

A shame she's not in Somarium. I think I'd enjoy a conversation with somebody who believes something like that.

[He gives Kamui a curious look]

What do you think, though? Do you agree with her?

[seishiromustdie]

..It's possible.

You look similar to me, but your personality is off. It's possible that our common features are just coincidence, and it doesn't have a deeper meaning.

[zerointegrity]

It's a bit peculiar, that's all.

[He pauses]

So, what do you intend to do with that pumpkin of yours?

[seishiromustdie]

Catapult it into the desert, so it'll be ravaged by the monsters.

[Apparently, Kamui's still sore about the whole thing.]

[zerointegrity]

[He laughs a bit]

What happened to you wanting to bake pumpkin pie with it?

[seishiromustdie]

...I'm not much of a cook, and I have no desire to bake. Plus making it into a pie would be too good for it.
