[Lelouch stared at Binx for a long moment, and then at the younger Nunnally in his arms, and the older Nunnally. The older Nunnally, who had attached herself to the fridge and was now frantically scarfing down some cookies, paused a bit in mid-bite, too.]

- I -

[He then, walked toward Binx, and put his hand out toward him, gently.]

...Would it be all right if I picked you up, Binx?

[Emily the ghost, in the meanwhile, was pouting a bit.]

(Oh, come on, Thackery - It's not like I stopped being your sister, just because I'm a ghost now, all right?)

It's not like I can hug you, Emily.

I'd go right through you!

[are13]

[Emily the ghost facepalmed at that.]

(...I wasn't talking about the hugging, Brother!

What I mean is that I'm still your sister, right now, even if I'm a ghost for the moment...)

[And then she sighed, and rubbed her head.]

(- Oh, never mind.)

[And then she blinked, thinking about something.]

[Hmmm?]

(...You know, Brother? Maybe I can hug you, even if you can't hug me...)

[Aand then, she tries to make her ghostly hands a little more solid then they usually are, so she can touch him.]

[Lelouch, in the meanwhile, is looking at both of them, his eyebrows raising. He does wonder if what Emily is trying would work, though.]

sorry about that, family reunion came up

**Thackery wordlessly watches Emily, waiting to see if her plan works or not**

[are13]

[OOC : NP! And WB! ^^]

[Aand then, Emily the ghost manages to give Binx a hug after all, and grins.]

[Her ghostly hands do feel pretty cold, however...]

[Emily, however, does not seem to be too worried about that side of things.]

...Ohhhh...

[She grins happily.]

- It worked!

[mangy-feline.livejournal.com]

((thanks))

It sure did...

**Thackery sounds happy, but also sad at the same time**

[are13]

[Aand then - Emily blinked, as she started to fade!]

(...Oh! Brother, I think I have to go now - But I'll do my best to come and see you again, OK?]

[The older Nunnally looks at that, her eyes sad - And so does Lelouch.]

- Good luck, Miss Emily.

[Lelouch says eventually, while the older Nunnally nods, too.]

...And, um, we'll try to take care of your brother, so don't worry about him too much, all right?

[mangy-feline.livejournal.com]

T...tell Mom and Dad I'm okay, all right?

**Beeg brother Thackery tries---keywords, TRIES---to be brave, but his body language says otherwise**

[are13]

(...I'll...I'll try to, but I'm not sure I'm really going to the same place they are - I'm still sort of stuck in the middle, you see...)

[Emily gives him one last hug.]

(But I'll make sure to try and get here again, I promise! See you again, Big Brother!)

[And then, she softly faded away, a sad smile on her face.]

[mangy-feline.livejournal.com]

**After Emily finally disappears, Thackery plops down onto the ground with a sigh**

[are13]

[And both Lelouch and the older Nunnally come over to him with sad smiles, too, then.]

[Pet pet!]

...I'm sure she'll find some way to see you again, Mr Cat.

[The older Nunnally says, eventually, holding out her hand toward his head...]

[mangy-feline.livejournal.com]

**Thackery begrudgingly accepts the petting, as he curls his tail about his body**

Ohh, I know....but it just seems...FRESH, you know...?

[are13]

[Lelouch and Nunnally looked at each other with an air of slight bemusement, as commonor slang words are not especially their thing.]

- Fresh as in...disrespectful, you mean?

[Lelouch guessed, and then the older Nunnally held out her hands to Binx, offering to pick him up.]

[Lelouch, in the meanwhile, stood up again, and gave both Lady Luna and Binx a small bow.]

- Lady Luna, Binx - As I was about to say before, many thanks for your kind help.

[And then he smiles.]

...May I offer you some refreshment, after our battle? I do believe I can prepare some dinner, if you could wait about 20 minutes or so...

[Aand then, the older Nunnally's stomach grumbled, right on cue! She blushed slightly, and then decided not to worry too much about it - It had been a long, long while since trying to be ladylike actually had been an important thing in her life, after all. And she wasn't at her Lord Father's Court anymore, and wasn't planning to return there any time soon, if at all.]
