It All Adds Up To Zero

[as_reckless_as_ever]

I know that I have no say in where I'll go if you do decide to send me somewhere else, but I do have one request.

I...

Can I still be Suzaku, even if its just part-time?

I know its selfish of me to ask this, and that I'd be breaking another promise by doing so, but... I got my life back, I don't want to give it up all over again.

And here I thought absence made the heart grow fonder.

[exiledpower]

I'm afraid my heart only grows blacker by the day. As you well know.

[as_reckless_as_ever]

Maybe I shouldn't have stabbed you through it.

[exiledpower]

[ If you were going for a laugh, Suzaku, congratulations. And even if you weren't, you're getting one anyway, because it's too pathetically funny not to. ]

I see my macabre sense of humor has rubbed off on you, dearest Knight. How unexpected... or would that be unfortunate?

[as_reckless_as_ever]

I'd say unfortunate. I've probably picked up more of your bad habits than I care to admit.

[exiledpower]

That's really unfortunate, then.

[ Head tilt. ]

...wait, what bad habits?

[as_reckless_as_ever]

Do you need a list?

[exiledpower]

[ Twitching. ]

Don't insult me.

[as_reckless_as_ever]

But its my favorite pastime.

[exiledpower]

Is being a complete ass also among your favorite pasttimes?

[as_reckless_as_ever]

You should already know the answer to that.

[exiledpower]

[ FUCK YOU, MAN.

Also if there is red on my face you're totally imagining it. ]

Drink your damn tea.

[as_reckless_as_ever]

[He feigns looking scandalized]

My, how ungracious. You used to be a better host than this.

[exiledpower]

[ YOU FUCKING PILE OF FUCK STOP MAKING ME MAD ]

Do I have to start throwing things at you again?

[as_reckless_as_ever]

Because that worked so well the last time.

You can try calming down, though.

[Sips the tea, ever so nonchalantly.]

[exiledpower]

[ Pft. He's perfectly calm, thank you. Sipping his own tea like a motherfucking boss yeah I can do this way better than you. ]

I was trying to be civil, you know.

[ Except the part at the beginning. That was him just being an asshole. Also, Lulu pouting coming your way. ]

Way to ruin the mood.

[as_reckless_as_ever]

Oh, darn. No sex tonight, then.

[Can't you sense his disappointment?]

[exiledpower]

[ WHAT

THE

CHOKING ON MY TEA A LITTLE OKAY WHAT

sorry no words just staring

just this face

forever

yep. ]

[as_reckless_as_ever]

Well, none for me. You seem to get around quite a bit, though.

[exiledpower]

[ That jostles him functioning again, and provokes a very nasty, visible bristle. ]

Don't joke around with me about that, Suzaku.

[as_reckless_as_ever]

[That gets a rather amused smirk in response]

But there are so many jokes to be made about you fucking yourself.

[exiledpower]

[ Lelouch seems to have been expecting a different (read: infinitely more insulting) response than what he gets, so he backs down a bit, though his shoulders remain tense and he's still eying Suzaku pretty warily. ]

We've come to an "understanding". That's all.

[as_reckless_as_ever]

Funny, I hear that Setsuna says the same thing after sex with Lelouch.

[exiledpower]

[ Open mouth...

Close mouth...

Open mouth...

Hmph. ]

Just who keeps feeding you all this information, anyway? Do you have a spy network, or something?

[as_reckless_as_ever]

That doesn't matter. All you need to know is that I'm aware of what you've been up to.
