Welcome to forget. forgive. This bad boy is a collection of the Suzaku-and-Lelouch-centric drabbles I seem to be writing so regularly.

Suzaku's vision is blurring.
This isn't real.
He steps forward.
This isn't real.
Lelouch raises an eyebrow.
This isn't re
Suzaku pulls his friend towards him and holds tight, not noticing the sudden darkness when Zero's cape enfolds them.
"I missed you," he says, voice choked, and Lelouch smiles.
