[ There's a girl sitting in a garden with insanely bright pink hair making flower wreaths! Do you want one? You know you want one. ]

ooc: intro! to the rest of the camp, that is. ♥

[If you offend her, I will slap you.]

Johnny.

[thekingsgambit]

[Manages a slight chuckle at that but it's tinged with pain.]

... She's always worked fast.

[2nd_slinger]

Mhm.

Does she know?

[thekingsgambit]

[Tone is still tight with pain but shifts into the lowest octaves Lelouch can manage at the question, as he turns directly to Rico. The less-than-stable nature of the expression is possibly evident.]

No.

And if she should find out, it will shatter her.

I will do anything to prevent that.

[2nd_slinger]

[Looks back at him levelly, for once not a hint of amusement or irreverence in his expression.]

I understand, Lelouch.

[thekingsgambit]

[Look is still shaky as he stares at him, as if unsure if he can take this chance...]

[thekingsgambit]

[But eventually, the tension in his shoulders eases. Slightly.]

... Thank you, Johnny.

[2nd_slinger]

Don't.

I said I understood, Lelouch... But I'm not not lying for you. I won't reveal your secrets, but don't expect me to hide them, either.

[thekingsgambit]

[Hackles raised! That mad, desperate glint is back in his eyes as he walks to the side.]

We need to talk. Somewhere else.

[2nd_slinger]

[Follows.]

Sounds like a plan.

[thekingsgambit]

[We are going FAR AWAY.]

[2nd_slinger]

[Man, I should've brought a snack...]

[thekingsgambit]

[Stops once they have reached a decent destination, but doesn't turn around. His voice is still incredibly jumpy but harsh. Forced.]

You understand nothing. I am not asking you to lie for me.

[2nd_slinger]

So who is it you want me to lie for?

[thekingsgambit]

For her.

[Turns around now, voice slipping into its more unsettling self-derision, although marked with shakes and stops.]

I don't care what you tell her about me, about what I've done. I don't care what she thinks of me. My entire world hates me after all, Johnny. I arranged it that way.

[thekingsgambit]

But... if you tell her about her fate, you will take away from her her last chance at happiness. And you have no right.

... I beg of you. Do not punish her for what I have done.
