[Private to Allen Walker, but sadly very hackable due to fail skills]

...Allen? If you aren't busy can I talk to you about something?

[end private]

Lavi, Yuuki, are you all right after yesterday?

Lelouch, it's safe to go back in the kitchen. [Little smile. She might have been overly protective yesterday after all her friends started getting hurt.]

I hope everyone else is well.

S-Sure? Do you know where it is?

[Holy crap. Uh. Princess coming over? Should he make tea?! You've frazzled him!]

You said it wasn't far from my building I think, but no, I don't know where exactly.

Building 5, Room 207...

S-Should I prepare tea or something?

He's worried about something like that after everything he said? ...Smiles a little] You don't have to do anything special for me, Allen. But I like tea if you wanted some too. I'll see you soon. [Because she won't get lost on the way there.]

Oh, okay. Be careful on your way.

[Kind of...well. Lies. He's really nervous. He doesn't know what Euphie is coming for...And after such an uncomfortable talk, he's a little unsettled. Even so, he quickly boils water in the kettle and makes two cups of tea, listening for an arrival.]

[Knocks after a few minutes and waits awkwardly at the door wondering if she should have brought something over. Wine? Except she doesn't drink. And it isn't as if she was invited. It's not formal. It's...well, it's unique at least.

She's a little unsettled. Not sure what she should do or say to him. It's horrible. Beyond horrible. She doesn't want to think of Allen having to face something like that even if she's only known him a short time. He deserves better. No one should face something like that.]

[He hears the knock. And takes a breath. Okay, Allen, she probably won't try to kill you, but let's be prepared. After hearing things like what she heard...she probably has questions...concerns...or worse. Either way, he won't let Euphie stand out in the cold, so he quickly moves to the door and opens it, plastering a smile on his face.]

Miss Euphie. Come inside quickly, please. It's cold out.

[And there he is. He's so polite and kind to someone who brought up such painful topics with him. And he has something inside him that wants to destroy him and the people he cares about. It's not fair and before she realizes it, she's hugging him right there in the doorway. Sorry about the lack of warning.]

...

[asdhjfsl. Well, that was completely unexpected. He's frozen, body and mind, and in one split second he really appreciates this because he should have known better than to think someone so kind and strong-minded as Euphie would be scared of him. But that's just a second. After that, he blushes fiercely, and he gets just a litttle frantic. What the hell does a gentlemen do with this!?]

M-Miss Euphie! P-Please...um...I-It's really okay! You...Ah...I-I made tea!

[She has to smile a little at his flustering even if she is worried about him. She pulls back, maybe blushing just a little too over the suddenness of her act.] I'd like some tea. Thank you.

Y-yeah. It should still be warm. Um....

[He closes the door so not to let any more cold air in, and gestures to the table, since the door leads into the kitchen anyway. Set there are two hot cups of tea, and still flustered (damn it), he pulls a chair out for Euphie.]

I-It's not a fancy table or anything, sorry...

It's very nice. Thank you. [Smiles at him and takes a seat] I didn't mean to make you nervous. I just... Well... It wasn't the kind of conversation to have not in person.

Yes...It's fine, Miss Euphie. I'm...[Trying to find the words to say...] I apologize for making you worry. I know that my...erm...story isn't something easy to be comfortable around. I understand if it bothers you...

I'm sorry I couldn't explain it any clearer. Even I don't fully understand the Noah.

Of course it bothers me. I don't want you to get hurt or have to sacrifice so much.

I'm fine! It's something I have to overcome, is all. If I get down, that will only make others worry! I can't be defeated by some Noah who thinks he can have my body!

[...Smiles] You're very brave. [Admires this.]

All exorcists are brave! We have to be.

Why did you become an exorcist? To help people?

To save akuma, actually. Their souls are trapped and forced to kill.

[Nods] No one should be forced to do something so awful. I'm glad they have people like you to help them.

T-thanks! We try our best!

[Smiles at him and then her eyes move down to her tea thoughtfully.] Why don't Road and Tyki like you? Is it because you don't follow the Noah's instincts? Or because you're an exorcist?

Mostly because I'm an exorcist and I just won't die. [He laughs lightly, but then he gets just a little serious.] We're on opposite ends of a Holy war. The Church and the exorcists use Innocence to fight in order to destroy akuma and save humanity. The Earl and Noah control the akuma in order to destroy humanity. Obviously, there is some conflict between Noah and exorcists. But I cannot forgive the Earl or the Noah for the death and suffering of so many. I cannot allow people who want to destroy mankind win.

[Headquarters...his first true 'home', the home of his friends, was destroyed. Finders, scientists he knew...Tapp...all killed mercilessly.]

No, but... [Listening, thoughtful.] I feel bad for them too though.

[He smiles, sadly, fingers gripping at the tea cup.]

Me too. I wonder...how they would live if they weren't controlled by the Earl. I wonder if I could play cards with Tyki. And maybe even play games with Road...innocent ones. It's hard to fight them. They're humans.
