Well, everything's back to normal, or what passes for it around here. Isn't that right? So I've got a question.

Don't take this the wrong way, but I don't usually care much what others think. The only one worth listening to now is myself. But some of you guys have been here a lot longer than me, so I thought I'd ask.

What do you make of the claims about the destruction of the worlds?

That's quite a subject, I know. Feel free to take your time in answering.

[Without hesitation:]

I'm afraid not. I left the world on a... chaotic note, so to speak.

[video]

[swordedpast]

Chaotic...?

I'm having a little trouble telling something. Is it that you don't care about anyone, or that you don't know if anyone you care about is alive? Not that it matters to me, but there's a difference.

My, you're being awfully inquisitive today, are you not?

[There's a wry smirk on his face.]

It's the former.

[A half-lie yet again, as even with his sister's presence, Lelouch's final plan did involve a lot of hatred from everyone.]

[swordedpast]

Call me curious. Maybe I was a cat when I lived. I hear they're graceful creatures.

[He's met a few. He knows they're stupid. That's why he even makes the comparison.]

Wow. You're really cynical for such a kid.

[doublechecks]

When one has seen the atrocity of wars, it is hardly surprising to view the world like that.

[a shrug]

[video]

[swordedpast]

Well, I suppose that explains it well enough.

You don't really look like a hardened soldier, though. Sorry if that disappoints you.

[He doesn't look or sound at all sorry.]

[video]

[doublechecks]

It is a common misconception, so I am used to it.

[Makes it easier to blend in too.]

[video]

[swordedpast]

Hmm. It must make it easier to deceive people, too.

[He picked up on that subtext.]

That's probably a plus for you.

[video]

[doublechecks]

At times, yes.

[video]

[swordedpast]

"At times." I wonder if that means you get sick of it at other times?

[video]

[doublechecks]

I shall leave that for you to find out, I'm afraid.

[Like he's going to tell a lot about himself, oops.]

[video]

[swordedpast]

Hah, like I'm interested enough to bother.

[video]

[doublechecks]

Then that makes it easier for the both of us, wouldn't it?

[video]

[swordedpast]

It certainly does. We can both agree not to pry.

[video]

[doublechecks]

Then, I believe that settles it.
