Preoccupied as he was with watching over Nunnally and waiting for the moment he could finally go to her, Lelouch almost didn't notice Suzaku's reaction. It would have to wait either way, though, because the instant he saw the hated symbol disappear from his sister's eye, he breathed a nearly inaudible sigh of relief and went to her side, gently prying her away from the knight. With a warning look shot in Suzaku's direction and a jerk of his head at the door to indicate that he should shut the damn thing behind them, he guided his sister deeper into the room, hoping to get her seated on the bed so that she could more easily calm down.

"Here," he said, trying a small smile as he very, very subtly (to him) tried to get her to sit. "I think we need a moment after all this excitement, don't you?" Another look in Suzaku's direction, this one clearly aimed at getting him to shut the hell up and behave before he could upset Nunnally any further. Answering that question could wait, too, unless his sister decided to address it herself. "It's all right, Nunnally. I'm here." I won't let anything hurt you. I'll find a way to reverse this, I promise. You don't have to worry about a thing.
