"Understood. I'll finish as soon as possible, My Lord"
Oz's voice is firm and almost authoritative as he speaks, gloved fingers pressing and smoothing along buttons and all types of controls. The view comes from inside of what looks to be some type of mecha, the screen in view flashing and lighting up with explosions as other machines - called Knightmares - cease functioning once a part of them is slashed in half.
The view shifts and moves as this Knightmare; the Lancelot, flies and soars through the air elegantly, eliminating any opponents belonging to the rebel group, the Black Knights. He's to find the man named Zero and eliminate him. He used to be his friend once... but after everything that had happened, things had changed and he could never go back to how it had been.
No matter how much searching is done though, the man eludes him every time with clever words and using his pawns before stepping out to fight himself. With this in mind, him as well as the other Knights of the Round are called back for now. If only to regroup and try to see if there was any way to get closer to Zero before he has time to plan anything else out; though that's easier said than done and he knows it.
Oz knew how the man was and it didn't seem like it was going to change so easily.
A sigh escapes his lips once he's back on the ground, Lloyd happily informing him that they were able to save some data from the battles he had fought as he withdraws the key to Lancelot, opening up the hatch to the cockpit and lowering himself down to the ground. It's quiet here; give or take the sounds of other Knights disembarking and a happy voice sounding in the background, trying to gain his attention but he had other things on his mind so he simply sighed and continued forward, green eyes narrowed and clouded with painful thoughts.
No sooner does he exit that area does a kind, soft voice speak his name and a glance over reveals it to be Nunnally. She's wearing a gentle smile with her attendant at her side, who looks less than disapproving of being in a place like this. In an instant, Oz's expression softens and he smiles softly, all severity of the battle before, now gone and replaced with something more calm and happy. "It's nice to see you, Nunnally. What brings you here?" All politeness still lingered even as he did this, bowing slightly to her out of courtesy.
"I wanted to see you after your mission, Oz. Thank goodness I arrived in time" Her voice is gentle to match the smile on her face. With a simple few words, they're allowed to be alone and they soon move to a room away from all of the noise of the Knightmares and everything else that had been there before. "How did your mission go?" She wasn't yet aware of what the mission's intent had been and that was fine with him as he didn't want to make her worry. Being the viceroy, he really didn't want anything else on her mind than was already there.
Though she was strong and he knew she could handle it, he didn't want to risk it.
"It went well. I mean.... for the most part we were able to gain some new data on some newer knightmare models. Lloyd seemed more excited about it rather than anything else." A sheepish laugh followed that and Oz looked away briefly, pausing when her hand moved to grasp his lightly, Nunnally's head turned upward in his direction despite she herself couldn't see. "I'm glad. Everything's not becoming too overwhelming for you, is it?" A pause simply lingered after that before he sighed softly, his hand grasping hers back in return. "A little. I'm still adjusting but it isn't anything I can't handle." Oz nodded in assurance, her smile showing she believed him; she was the only person he seemed like he could be almost entirely honest with and let down all of those icy walls he had built up since becoming the Knight of Seven.
Even if he no longer was friends with her brother... he would always be there to protect her and make her safe as she was still someone who meant a lot to him. Not as the Viceroy of Britannia but as noone else other than Nunnally.
[The feed faded out on the two of them talking to one another, and that's followed by the sound of Oz yawning as he sits up, clearly confused to what he'd just dreamt and yet he can't stop the smile that's showing on his lips as soon as he finds the dreamberry where it had been lying nearby. It was a pleasant dream - if not something pretty incredible - for him and he didn't mind that much that it had been broadcast to everyone.
Even in this light, it's clear to see he's now dressed in the very regal outfit, down to the deep, royal blue and gold cloak, gloved fingers coming to touch the golden design on the cloak lightly.
Amazement soon shows on Oz's face and he can't help but smile broadly as he takes note of his whole outfit.]
Uwaaa~! That was so cool!!
I didn't know things like this could happen~

Date: 2011-10-31 01:35 am (UTC)Unfortunately, no; not just anyone can use a Knightmare, and... mine and the others are specially customized for our individual use, so no one else can really operate them but us. There are others, though, that one could try their hand at if they're in a certain division of the military.
[ video ]
Date: 2011-10-31 04:39 am (UTC)[ video ]
Date: 2011-11-04 03:00 pm (UTC)The Knight of the Rounds are the knights who protect the Emperor or Empress, so they have special Knightmare Frames. [ most of them, at least. and, he's not a Knight anymore. ]
[ video ]
Date: 2011-11-12 10:53 pm (UTC)Special ones, huh?! That's so cool~!
Before you came here, were you a knight then, too?
[ video ]
Date: 2011-11-12 11:13 pm (UTC)[ aaand before that he was Princess Euphemia's knight. ]
[ video ]
Date: 2011-11-12 11:38 pm (UTC)[He pauses in thought over something] Those numbers are a type of way of saying a rank, isn't it? So... that Zero one's gotta be the highest one there is, right?
[ video ]
Date: 2011-11-12 11:41 pm (UTC)They are. 'Knight of Zero' is the highest rank you can have as a Knight of the Round's member.
[ video ]
Date: 2011-11-12 11:48 pm (UTC)I wish I could be a Knight like that.
[A sigh and he shakes his head shortly]
You seemed close to Nunnally from the dream I had... are you two good friends~?
Re: [ video ]
Date: 2011-11-13 12:00 am (UTC)good friends... with Nunnally... ]
We are. [ S C R E A M S the simple chant is driving him crazy now. ] Have you met her- beyond this dream, of course?
[ video ]
Date: 2011-11-13 01:29 am (UTC)She's... really nice. One of the only people who heard me out after I came back from going home recently. I'd like to think we're actually good friends too~
[ video ]
Date: 2011-11-13 02:02 am (UTC)[ pause. weighing in his head if it would be prying to ask what happened, and decides to let it go today. just for today. ... because talking to someone wearing his clothes kind of makes him not want to say anything. considering exactly what Suzaku did to get those clothes in the first place, of course. ]
Nunnally certainly is really nice. [ quiet, if a little bit sad in a way. ]
[ video ]
Date: 2011-11-16 12:02 am (UTC)[A nod of his head and he closes his eyes in thought for a moment]
She is~! Though... I have been curious about something.
If you don't mind me asking... what happened to Nunnally anyway? I mean, she's in that wheelchair so something had happened, right?
[ video ] || [ 1/2 ]
Date: 2011-11-16 06:04 pm (UTC)[ and then he freezes up a bit, eyes wide -- ]
[ video ] || [ 2/2 ]
Date: 2011-11-16 06:05 pm (UTC)It's not my place to tell you what happened. If you want to know, I advise asking her sometime. I don't think it would be something she'd be comfortable talking about, though.
[ video ]
Date: 2011-11-17 09:05 pm (UTC)Ah... I didn't mean to ask anything bad like that.
...the way you acted... I can guess it was something pretty bad..
I wouldn't wanna ask her if it'd make her uncomfortable.
[ video ]
Date: 2011-11-19 03:33 am (UTC)It's not- bad. I don't blame you for being curious. I just don't think that it's something you should be hearing from me.
But... yeah. Something really bad happened. It's a touchy subject.
[ ... ] Just don't be surprised if she doesn't want to talk about it.
[ video ]
Date: 2011-11-20 10:35 pm (UTC)I understand~
If it's better I think I might just leave it at that it was something really bad, so that I don't have to make things uncomfortable like that.
She's my friend and i'd hate to make her feel bad, you know?
[ video ]
Date: 2011-11-23 01:09 am (UTC)[ also, not making Nunnally feel bad is a decision that Oz might come to be thankful for. ]
Are you alright? [ gentle, but definitely not probing. just. there. ]
[ video ]
Date: 2011-12-01 12:55 am (UTC)Yeah~! Until then i'll wait.
[Pauses at that and he hesitates a little before continuing onward. He should try and be a bit more honest after all.]
Eheh... Sort of~
Kinda have a lot on my mind, actually..
[ video ]
Date: 2011-12-01 02:29 am (UTC)he'll ask. ]
Ah...? I see. [ ... now. ] Would you... like to talk about it? I know it helps me to talk to someone about the things that are on my mind. [ rough translation: IT HELPS ME TO TALK TO SCHNEIZEL AND SCHNEIZEL ALONE ABOUT THE THINGS THAT ARE ON MY MIND... ]
[ video ]
Date: 2011-12-02 05:06 am (UTC)I'm... just... a lot happened within my world before coming back to Somarium and though it's been some time since I arrived back, it's started to worry me again. If I stop watching myself and being careful...
I could hurt my friends and not be able to stop it.
