Red [Code Geass, Euphemia, drabble]

Title: Red
Fandom: Code Geass
Characters: Euphemia (hinted Lelouch/Euphy, Suzaku/Euphy)
Rating: PG
Notes: Written for [livejournal.com profile] lithographic for her birthday~ Unbeta'd.
Summary: She used to like the color red. But then the world turned red and went mad.


She used to like the color red. It was the colors of the roses in Empress Marianne's garden. The color of Lelouch's cloak as he swept through the palace halls, Nunnally following after in her red shoes. A vivid but delicate color as expressed in Clovis' paintings.

She thought it was beautiful. Rich. Lovely. The color of passion and desire and everything romantic she had ever read in books. Lelouch reminded her so much of the color red, bold and decisive. And she loved it like she loved him.

Even when she met Suzaku... Red was the color of the accents of the Lancelot. A blur of white and red that passed and left her breathless as he fought for what they both believed in. The accents of the badge he proudly wore in her name. And the color her cheeks turned when he kissed her under the sun.

She used to like the color red. But then the world turned red and went mad.

It covered her dress, her hands. It was in her hair and under her nails and how did it get there? Why was she covered in red? Why were Suzaku's eyes red with tears? None of it made sense, and she couldn't help but hate it. She hated it all and wanted none of the stains covering her.

She hated red.
