[Meme] Prequel/Sequel [Multi-Fandom]
Well, it's not like I'm bored or not busy or blocked... I've actually got my hands full! I just happen to also be a hyperactive fool! :D so meme tiemz.(Idea for this meme was taken from an author I hardly ever read anymore but used to totally stalk.)
Playyyy with meeeee
Rules:
1. You may request either a prequel or a sequel of any of my finished fanfics.
2. Expect this prequel or sequel to fit inside one comment box, but if inspired you may get more.
3. Of any unfinished fic, you may request for one paragraph to be written.
4. Specify at what point in time you want this paragraph (beginning, middle, end, or between this-and-this point).
5. Whether you are requesting from a finished or unfinished fic, if you so desire, you may request a certain character's pov. (Note that this increases the difficulty for me and decreases your chance of being answered.)
6. Please only request once per person. After I have filled yours, you may request again.

Child; sequel
Suzaku curls on the couch, feet pointed awkwardly at the ankles to fit his whole body on the seats. There's two spare blankets and neither covers him all the way; there's one for his feet and one for his torso, and between them is a slit that lets in the cold air of the living room and makes him shiver. It doesn't help him fall asleep any more than the sight of Lelouch freezing and unresponding or the words they exchanged afterwards.
("Just get out, just get out, get the fuck out before I--"
"You what? What, Lelouch, really, I think I'd really like to hear this. I'm trying to help you and you're going to do-- what?"
And Suzaku saw it in his eyes: Lelouch would... he'd ki--... he would...)
Suzaku slips fitfully, waking every half an hour to change position, widening the gaps in his blankets and exposing himself more and more. Whenever he's aware enough, he hears thumps coming from the hall, and he knows Lelouch has not slept once.
Suzaku wakes to the smells of cooking and shame-facedly drags himself into the kitchen. Except for tired eyes, Lelouch looks much the same as he did before the incident. He even turns around and smiles and says that the eggs will be done in a moment.
Sayoko takes Nunally off to school and Suzaku hangs back. He makes sure to knock into something as he comes back into the kitchen, because Lelouch's back is turned. Lelouch doesn't make any particular movement but to continue with dishwashing, uninterrupted.
"Lelouch," Suzaku whispers. "About last night--"
"Don't mention it, Suzaku." Lelouch voice is suddenly hard once more.
"No, I just-- I shouldn't have pushed... If you don't want to talk about it--"
"I don't."
"Yeah, well... I just wanted to apologize for yelling an--"
"No, Suzaku," Lelouch spits with all the vehemence of last night. "You're not getting it! I don't want to speak of it at all. Last night didn't happen--" Lelouch finally turns to look Suzaku in the eye "--understand?"
And when he looks like that-- when Lelouch looks like that--
Suzaku would do anything for him.
A year and much more later, Suzaku gets at last a rather unsatisfactory but by now rather unextraordinary answer. When he enters the throneroom there is Lelouch, grimly and viciously amused--
--and there is Odysseus, his willing dog, naked and debased, turning tricks.
"Fetch, boy," Lelouch bites out, and he throws a knife that Odysseus, entranced, woofs and fetches with his bleeding mouth. Lelouch glances at his knight with blazing eyes.
Lelouch is nothing if not vengeful. This Suzaku knows well enough by now.
And in that same night, Lelouch calls him to his bedroom and throws him roughly against the bed. Lelouch looms above him, threating, eyes red and inexplicably frightening. He pins Suzaku's shoulders to the sheets but Suzaku reaches up anyway and strokes his cheek.
"Knight of Zero, who am I?"
"You are the emperor of the world, Your Majesty."
"That's right," Lelouch says, and then he descends with teeth bared.
Re: Child; sequel
Anyway, I think you got Lelouch down pat right here. Very IC and evocative -- especially the added theatrics with Odysseus.
I think at the end he's seeking affirmation from Suzaku. He doesn't want to be seen as a broken boy. And I don't think Suzaku wants Lelouch to see himself as that either.
Thanks!
Re: Child; sequel
I'm happy you think Lelouch was IC! The original didn't leave a lot of room for him to show off his personality because I had to keep to the prompt.
I might combine the two and release it as R-rated to FFnet, at which point it will be titled, "The Child Emperor" (because obviously I am a dork when it comes to titles).

Re: Child; sequel
The way "Child" was written was very evokative, disturbing on all the right levels and beautifully understated in unveiling its horror.
This is a perfetly toned sequel - with Suzaku doing ALL the wrong things with all the best intentions, and Lelouch's ultimate revenge.
I'm really glad that it was requested so that I don't have to, because I'm terrified of this meme. :p
Re: Child; sequel
...terrified of my meme?! WELL GOOD. BECAUSE MY MEME WILL BEAT YOU UP AND TAKE YOUR LUNCH MONEY. SO NYEH.
