[The feed opens up to a rather large blur of pink -- quite indistinguishable really -- and remains rather silent and stationary for a good 10 seconds. Then, the sound of shuffling comes through the SFC as the pink mass begins to move, revealing a rather perplexed looking young girl when it turns around.

She looks about as one would expect upon arrival, long hair and dress clinging to her in a manner that doesn't exactly scream princess so much as it does drowned rat.]

Oh dear. It appears as though I've lost my way... this doesn't look a thing like any place in the palace I've ever been.

[Considering she lives there, it's a bit hard to believe she'd simply taken a wrong turn and ended up somewhere that looks like the bottom of the ocean. In fact...]

I certainly don't remember going for a swim, and the last time I woke up soaked like this was... [Kamine Island. Which only brought one thought to mind.] Brother!

[Nope, that's not an exclamation of exasperation or anything, it's a question of whether or not someone was here.]

[Judging by the clothes, drenched though they were, this girl was a noble or royalty of some kind.]

Hey there, hunny! Don't panic, but you're in an underwater city called Vatheon. Pretty crazy, right? If you need help, there's plenty of decent people around, not to mention me, the Great Zelos~♥

[He took a look at what was behind her in frame, working out that she's in the plaza, like most who arrive.]

There should be a towel vendor nearby who can give you one to dry off. Don't want you to catch a cold, my pink princess~♥

[Well, this young man certainly was quite forward. She blinks in a rather comical fashion before collecting herself as best as possible, given the circumstances.]

I certainly agree, the idea of an underwater city is quite strange to take in like this. Although, it's rather reassuring to know that there are others in this situation as well.

[His advice proves to be true after a short search -- and she's soon able to begin drying herself a bit. The ease with which he speaks throws her off, however, and she quickly grows flustered.]

Ah, thank you for your assistance, Sir Zelos. My name is Euphemia li Britannia, of the Holy Britannian Empire. It's a pleasure to meet you.

["Sir" Zelos? Yeah, totally royalty. At least she's the polite kind instead of the look-down-on-everyone kind.]

Just Zelos is fine, Euphemia-hunny♥ And the pleasure is completely mine.

[Oh goodness. She assumed that by giving her name, he wouldn't refer to her using pet names anymore. Euphie's not quite sure how to handle this.]

Alright, Zelos then. If that's the case, then please, simply call me Euphie -- after all, it only seems fair! [A smile.] Have you been here in Vatheon long, Zelos?

About a month, actually, so not as long as some others but long enough to get a feel for the city. Care of a guided tour from yours truely?

[He hadn’t done much in his time since he had spoken to Mao – he had mainly gathered information on his own and tuned in every now and then to the network. The last of the fairy disaster had finally gone past them all, and—

Wait.

That pink hair was all too familiar – and although she was wet, she was still very recognizable.

Euphie.]

[He just stares blankly at the SFC for a few moments – he had realized that it was, in fact, possible to bring back the dead here. Mao after all, had been very dead the last time he had checked. Startling as it was to see him here, he had attributed it to the fact that this place was strange at best.

But it was Euphie - the one that he had used Geass on, and then killed with his own hands.

There had been moments, especially shortly after her death, what he would’ve done if he could see her again. Of course those thoughts were fleeting; he had to push past them, and keep moving forward.

No amount of tactics could’ve predicted this. Hearing her say ‘brother’ made a chill run down his spine – if it had been meant for him or not, it was still unnerving.]

[Finally, he recovers. This wasn’t a way to welcome his sister to Vatheon, and if he were to alarm her, he may have to say more than he wants to before he assessed the situation correctly.

So he turns on the feed to respond to her, mask in place with a welcoming smile. He had to act like everything was alright – he had done it so often already, right?]

Euphie. [He caught his voice faltering just slightly; maybe she hadn’t heard it, but he’s carrying on as if nothing was wrong:] I’m sorry to say that you’re very far from anything that you’d find recognizable. You’re in a different world altogether – a place called Vatheon.

[He frowns slightly though, but it’s the concern of a brother, not the panicked face of someone who killed his sister.]

Are you injured, or harmed in any way?

[Hearing Lelouch's voice was perhaps the greatest relief since her arrival. Sure, it hadn't been long at all since she last saw him -- but losing him once was hard enough, and it meant everything to her to know they wouldn't be separated again with her entrance to Vatheon.

Any emotion detected in his voice is assumed to be a mirror of her own relief, so she doesn't pay it any extra heed at the moment. She's simply left to smile at her brother's concern and the fact that some things never appear to change.]

Far from anything recognisable? Lelouch, but you're right here in front of me, aren't you? [She tilts her head to the side and offers a small giggle in teasing.]

Oh, but I'm perfectly fine, if not still a bit confused about this world. After all, I never would've thought to make a home beneath the water like this!

[There's a little bit of relief there when she acknowledges him favorably - even though he had done absolutely nothing to deserve it. Yes, she was the same little Euphie.

As much as that should be more relieving than unnerving, it's still a little weird to be talking to her like this. It's like talking to a ghost - and not in a way that he was able to detach from, like Mao. ~~Lol Mao~~.

The best way to handle this would, obviously, be to keep doing what he was doing.]

You have a point there. [He laughs slightly, listening to her as she spoke up again.]

I don't believe any of us planned on making a home underwater like this, but here we are. What else are you confused about?

[Unaware as she currently was regarding her less than favourable fate in the near future, Euphie continues on in her typical bubbly fashion.

She smiles brightly at his laughter before stopping to consider the question. What was she still confused about at this point? To be honest, she wasn't entirely sure of the answer to that herself.

It didn't really matter how many times she got the same answers, it was still difficult to believe their current situation.

There was, however, one question that only Lelouch could answer for her right now. One that she wasn't quite sure she truly wanted the answer to.]

Brother, are we... [A pause.] Are there others here from our home as well?

_{[Say... That's a somewhat familiar face. Where has he seen it before?]}

Haven't I seen you somewhere before~?

[She contemplates the man for a brief moment before coming to the only logical conclusion.]

I've only recently made my public debut, but... you must be from Britannia as well then!

[Yeah, not quite answering that question yet.]

Me? Oh, no, no~ I'm not Britannian. I'm from the Chinese Federation.

_{[But if she's from Britannia, well... He supposes that makes sense--he hasn't really come across anyone else with such oddly colored hair. Those two keywords do stick out to him, too. Public debut? Oh, dearie.]}

Though I'm curious now! Public debut?

Oh! The Chinese Federation? Then you do come from the same world, at least.

[He certainly wasn't a familiar face, as Lelouch had been, but if they were from the same home world, there was no reason not to acquaint herself with the man, right? ~~wrong.~~]

My apologies. I am Sub-Viceroy of Area 11, Euphemia li Britannia. It's a pleasure to meet you.

_{[See this look, Euphie? See this look? Yeah. This is a look of pure, honest surprise. li Britannia.

Britannia.

It couldn't be... Could it?]}

You... wouldn't be related to a Clovis, would you?

Were you headed somewhere in particular on your "way"?

I was on my way to see my brother, but I suppose that doesn't really matter now, does it?

[ well she did mention her brother in the original feed after noticing where she had ended up— or knowing not where she had ended up, but she had definitely ended up somewhere! somewhere that elicited such a reaction about her brother— whether or not that place was vatheon was still to be determined. this was all very odd. ]

Oh? Is your brother here?

Yes, although not the one I had been on my way to meet with prior to my arrival here.

[She's not quite sure why this person is so interested, but she figures there's little harm in answering the questions as they were now.]
