Suzaku was stood staring up at the exploding planets. It was a strange room, a projection and yet there was that tiny spark of doubt in his mind. That this could be real that the notes were true. That he was staring at the destruction of all the universes.

It had been quiet for a while, apart from the strange things that had happened at the beginning of the week. It had been a while since anything truly awful had happened. A while by this places standards anyways and Suzaku worried about what the next game or experiment thought out by those who had kidnapped them would be.

When he heard footsteps coming up onto the space floor he turned, nodding politely at whoever it was.

At first, Jin, returned the nod with a barely attentive wave-- the space floor wasn't really that interesting to him, to be honest, and he was just passing through. However, a moment before he reached the staircase, he stopped, and paused.

He may have been sketchy, but it's not like he was looking for a fight. But he stopped, and turned, and looked at the guy who was looking up at the exploding planets, and something click in his mind.

"Hey-- you Suzaku?"

[swordofzero]

Suzaku turned at his name and nodded again, "I am, Kururugi Suzaku." He wondered how the other knew him, he didn't think he had spoken to him before.

[morituramfides]

The confirmation made Jin's face grow angry. "I'm friends with Minato. You know, the guy you screwed over to save your own ass?"

He turned away from the staircase completely now, marching over to Suzaku. "What the hell do you think gives you the right?"

[swordofzero]

Suzaku wasn't sure what he had been expecting but this wasn't it. His eyes widened in shock and he looked to the floor. He still felt guilty, obviously, about the incident but talking to Psiioniic and Signless had helped...

Jin's angry words made the guilt return tenfold and he looked down. "I... sorry..."

[morituramfides]

"Yeah, much good an apology's gonna do now." Jin rolled his eyes, the look of anger and derision on his face ever growing. He pulled his evoker out of his pocket, and-- as if it were an actual gun, jabbed it at Suzaku's chest.

"Look, I know we're not good people, and I know Minato's already forgiven ya, but I'm not as nice as him. So don't give me that bullshit innocent face, if you're so much of a 'better person.'"

[swordofzero]

Suzaku stepped backwards as the gun was jabbed at him, he wasn't scared at all he just looked at Jin with empty eyes. It didn't matter if he shot him the Geass wouldn't let him die and even if it did he would just return tomorrow.

If there had been any actual chance of death Suzaku would have welcomed it. He deserved it after all. For what he had done to Minato, and for every other death he had caused or stood witness to. Not stopping it.

"I never said I was a good person." And he had definitely never said he was a better person than this boy, or than Minato...

[morituramfides]

"You sure do act like it, apologizing like all you did was steal something from a cookie jar. Selling out someone else for your own good even though you know you'll just wake up in the morning!"

Hypocrisy, sure; Jin probably would've sold out someone else if he had been in Suzaku's position and knew where someone was hiding. But that wasn't the point!

[swordofzero]

There was no defense against that, nothing he could say because even though Suzaku had not been in control of his actions the consequences were still his to bear. Just as they had always been, he couldn't blame his geass. He could have taken steps to prevent this, made sure he didn't know where anyone else was hiding...

"I have no excuse and no apology would ever be enough."

[morituramfides]

He rolled his eyes. "I ain't lookin' for an apology. I'm looking to make sure you never get in our way again." Sure this guy wasn't any SEES, but simply put, he didn't trust him at all. And plainly put, this guy pissed him off with how much of a goddamn wimp he was being about it.

But that wasn't Jin's concerned, he backed up and away from Suzaku, bringing the evokver to his temple and pulling the trigger. "Moros!"

With a bang, he summoned a giant mechanical creature above his head. Better move fast Suzaku, because there's a rush of fire coming your way.

[swordofzero]

Well if that were the case there was nothing Suzaku could do about it. He frowned when Jin brought the gun to his own head but he had seen Minato summon before, the first time they had met. He assumed this was the same.

When the fire came at him Suzaku moved, diving to the side and rolling out the way. His eyes flashing red.
