(week 2, monday) nino
[ Monday is probably a safe time. at least, when there isn't a million people crowding over Nino and what happened on Sunday - which had taken everyone by surprise, himself included.
and well. he's actually fairly certain that more than anyone here, he knows exactly what it's like to lose an eye.
Even though the eye had never been actually lost, the implanted memories of being blinded in one eye and the phantom pains never really went away, especially so now that something on the island was blocking his access to his Geass, blocking the very thing that had distracted him from the pain.
And Nino was a child. She looked barely Nunnally's age, and that was pretty much one of the deciding factors that caused Lelouch to leave his hut and head over to Nino's. He hesitates for a moment, but not for long - he knocks, and waits.
He has in his hand part of his rations - it would be rude to pay a visit without an offering of some sort. ]

but for now, he just looks. stricken. for a moment. just short enough for him to sort of think on how best to approach this because he probably should have asked for painkillers to help with this but he didn't, and-- ]
You have to get used to it, eventually.
[ it's not meant to be offensive, and the matter-of-fact tone he uses could have been toned down a bit, but well... ]
I promise it gets easier. [ he reaches out a hand, lets her decide if she wants to take it. ] Do you want to try? I'll hold you so you won't fall.
[ she can just. practice? around the hut? probably. ]
no subject
You... don't mind? I don't think I can do very much, but...
[She knows she has to get used to it. After all--]
I just.. I don't want to drag everyone else down. Especially not Jaffar.
[If he's stuck worrying over her, he's not taking care of himself, and that's not a good thing at all. She carefully, she reaches for Lelouch's hand.]
