[after this...]

[Between the freezing wind and the group of zombies he'd had to flee from, Hanekoma arrived at the Latimir apartments in an even fouler mood than he'd been in when Minamimoto had hit him with the exploding penguin. He couldn't feel his toes. He could, unfortunately, feel his face.]

[He took a deep breath and let himself into the building. No point in brooding. It had been a good shot. And as revenge for putting Sho's clothing up for sale, well, it was about as subtle as he could have expected. Less annoying than the broken leg he'd had a few months back....]

[Trying to convince himself that the irritation wasn't worth the effort, he stalked up the stairs. Of course, it wasn't worth it. It was just that he hadn't seen it coming. And he was not used to that. Least of all from an ex-Reaper with an exploding penguin.]

[Well. No helping it. If he was lucky, he'd get back to his apartment to clean up and assess the damage without running into anyone on the way....]

Didn't dodge fast enough, ya know how it goes.

[He crouched, holding a hand out to the cat.] That so? You got stuck catsitting?

I wouldn't know, actually. I never intended on dodging in the first place.

[ oh he'll ask how that happened in a moment. but his eyes are on Anna as she sniffs Sanae out. ]

Either that or she has grown like her owner and is stalking me.

Oh? So what happened with you?

[He rumpled the cat's ears before standing back up, leaning back against the wall.]

They'll do that.

Family affairs and dealings with vampires. What about you? You're missing some of your more charming features, Sanae.

[ eyes flicker from Anna to Sanae. best learn that Lelouch doesn't do topic changes well. ]

Edited 2010-01-06 01:57 (UTC)

Sounds like a blast. Me, well... bit a leftover business from home.

With who? I can only imagine it would be either Sho or Joshua.

[ which... Lelouch is also a little curious as to how Joshua is feeling now that Sanae is back. they haven't really spoken in a while. ]

It's done with, no point in dwellin'.

[He smiled imperturbably, one shoulder lifting in a shrug.]

So you must've been busy - I haven't seen ya around the place this last week.

You're missing your eyebrows...

[ sighs. busy? a little. Rolo is getting out of hand. Euphemia is just secluding herself even more... Nunnally is being simply adorable. then there is the Chinese Empress that appeared... ]

I've been a little busy. Though I would have been on my feet sooner if not for my idiot of a knight.

[And a decent few square inches of skin, not to mention the rest of his facial hair. Hanekoma sighed.]

That so? He bein' a mother hen or something?

[ he'll come back to the topic. he wants to know what happened, but will answer questions for the time being. ]

Something like that. I became ill from my injuries being infected. Between that and the conversation we had after the mistletoe incident? I think he doesn't want me to leave.

Man, it's gonna take me a while to catch up with all the changes 'round here.

[Lelouch wasn't going to get anything out of him; on the other hand, Sho was likely to crow his triumph from the rooftops. Hanekoma smirked faintly.]

Well, you're lookin' healthy enough now - guess that's why he's lettin' you out and about?

He, ah, isn't aware I'm moving around as much as I am.

Ha!

[Amused, Hanekoma shook his head.]

I'm surprised you're puttin' up with that.

[ a small little huff or irritation at hearing that. ]

He is my best friend before knight, Sanae. I humor him as much as I do Nunnally.

[Sometimes, talking to Lelouch was really a nostalgia trip. He was just like Josh had been at his age....]

My bad.

Am I free to ask yet how you managed to get in that state or need I go on about how my life in Discedo has changed since you left?

[ because it sort of has? ]

Thought I told ya - business from home.

[He shrugged cheerfully.]

You really think that's going to satisfy my curiosity?

Guess you're just gonna have to deal, Catnip. It's done with.

[ lets himself into the apartment building, dirt on his face and dust in his hair, but in a pretty good mood, all around. until he sees Lelouch up and around. and in the hall. ]

Lelouch, what are you doing u-- [ distracted by kitten! hi Anna! hee. what are you doing outside? scoops her up and scritches her head; looks back toward Lelouch with a "you should be resting look"

... and then notices the other person. oh. straightens, a little more formal. ] Sorry, I didn't see you were busy. [ another glance at Lelouch, eyebrow raised ]

[ is going to tell you off, Sanae. just you wait. the mere presence of Suzaku cuts Lelouch short though. he makes a slight face at the knight before looking away. ]

I'm not an invalid, Suzaku...

[ now back to Sanae. looks exasperated, really. ]

Sanae, this is the idiot jock. Idiot jock, this would be Sanae Hanekoma. I don't think you two ever met.

[Aww. Friendship. Wasn't it cute. Grinning, Hanekoma tilted his head in a sketch of a bow at the kid.]

Nice ta meet ya. Any preferred nicknames for "idiot jock," boss?

[ inclines his head in return ]

Just Suzaku is fine, really. [ shakes his head at Lelouch a bit; he'll talk to you later ] This is Anna. [ holds her up a little ]

[ shoots a rather indignant look at Suzaku. why? there's nothing to talk about. now he's rubbing at the bridge of his nose. ]

[Hanekoma chuckled, reaching out to ruffle the cat's fur again.]

Yeah, your friend here introduced us. Where'd you get her, or did she tag along from your home world?
