[Suzaku is out for a late evening run with his canine companion Tumbles. It's growing dark but not so dark that he doesn't notice the larger than normal crowds gathered about the fountain and other places. He hasn't been here for very long so he can't say for sure if this is entirely normal or not, but the last time he was out jogging this late it

[Had landed near the fountain and was dusting his clothing off, blinking at the unfamiliar city before he rubbed a hand over his eyes. His footsteps were quiet as he picked his way through the crowd, eyes moving over the people around him before he catches sight of a familiar figure a short distance away.

Lelouch changes direction, moving to intercept the other teenager, his expression wary since he's not sure of the reception he'll receive. The last time he'd seen Suzaku, they'd ...parted on less than good terms.]

[sword_of_zero]

[Suzaku has gathered enough information from listening to the network to have an idea of what's going on. There are a couple of places he wants to check out and look for visitors there. He's hopeful that one visitor in particular from their world will show up.

Lelouch saves him the effort of having to track him down. He starts jogging towards the visitor's center and then comes to a complete halt when he spots the other young man in front of him.]

Lelouch.

[power_of_kings]

...Suzaku.

[Lelouch is just watching him, expression guarded as he waited to see exactly what Suzaku was going to do. His gaze darted to the dog before returning back to his friend.] ...Seems like you've made yourself at home here, wherever here is.

[sword_of_zero]

[Suzaku catches onto the guarded look, which makes him wonder what time Lelouch is from. Is it from when they are enemies? Is he from further along but he thinks that he might be from before then? There's only one way to know for sure; Zero Requiem. Lelouch's response to that phrase will determine how Suzaku reacts to him.]

Does Zero Requiem mean anything to you?

[He'll respond to the small talk after that question is answered.]

[cacto_ocupado]

Hola, amigo!

[sword_of_zero]

[It's rare these days that Suzaku enters derp mode, but seeing that on the side of the road? That causes his eyes to widen and he stumbles off to the side.]

[cacto_ocupado]

[ Hops towards youuuuuuuuuuuuuuu. ]

Amigo! Have you seen Hisoka? riko?

[sword_of_zero]

[Sits down for a moment and looks over at his dog, who looks at him, and then he looks over at the plant in front of him.]

Am I imagining this?

[sweet_mmrs]

Suzaku...?

[sword_of_zero]

[Suzaku comes to a stop all together and his eyes widen when he sees a familiar redhead. A familiar redhead who should also be dead like a certain pinkhaired princess. He's not able to hide all of his shock but he stops it from overwhelming him.]

Shirley...did you just arrive here?

[She doesn't seem shocked to be alive, so that's a good start.]

[sweet_mmrs]

Ahhh! So it is you! I wasn't quite sure. [ adds in a playful tone ] You're at school so rarely I almost forgot what you look like, you knoooow~

- And arrive here? [ blinks ] Aren't we at school?

[sword_of_zero]

No, we're not. This is going to sound really confusing and strange, but I promise you that whatever I'm telling you is not a lie.

[He'll give her a moment to prepare herself, though he doubts there is anything that can prepare her for what he is about to say.]

[His eyes widen briefly when he hears that voice. He turns around and then his gaze meets Cornelia's. Before he wouldn't have met her eyes or when he did, he looked subservient. Now his gaze is direct and unwavering.]

We're no longer in Britannia or anywhere in our world, as strange as this is going to sound we're in an entirely different world.

[He doesn't answer to her anymore but he doesn't want to leave her in the dark either/]

[You'd better stop jogging, because omg all of a sudden there are three cowboys right there on either side of you! Holy crap! But- they just appear to be singing. To you.]

Suzaku (Suzaku), Suzaku (Suzaku)!
You're here now in the City, you don't know what to do.
You've got a lot of people back home waiting for you!
But what to make of this place, you just have got no clue.
