You've got questions... we might have answers

[thekingsgambit]

I'm not a big fan of memes, but this one is right up my alley since I love explaining the insanity of my brain to others.

If you have any questions about any of my characters, feel free to ask here.

This includes basic canon info but is more geared towards like . . . motivations, specific camp behavior, past events, anything else you can think of, really. "Why does ____ do this?" "Why does ____ act that way around them?" "Why does ___ not want etcetc?" etc.

This is more to fulfill any curiosities rather than a forum for concrit, but feel free to use it that way too. "Why the fuck would ___ DO THAT like you did last night?" Believe me, you may get more than you bargained for. I like to talk.


Lelouch and Setsuna be your targets.

Lulu and his goal(s) outside of camp-- Is anything or developments in camp effecting it/them? I can be less vague.

Lelouch is still determined to find out about Mommy and take out Britannia, with hatred ever as strong for Daddy. Same goes for his insistence that the current world cannot exist as it is. None of this has changed. The only thing in flux is his methods at achieving these goals because Euphie is actually a powerful influence and while he has not agreed to join her on the SAZ, in humoring her talks about it and advising her on refining it, he realizes that part of him wants to consider it.

There is also Cornelia obviously, with their relationship here, as well as his de-aging, playing harder on his previous issues with killing Clovis. Lelouch does have a genuine desire for people to understand him if he believes they can, and such is the case with Cornelia. It is important to him just as it is important to him that Suzaku join Zero on his own merits and not through Lelouch's influence. (Note, the other thing that plays into this is Lelouch's reliance on that friendship and unwillingness to have it tested through revealing to Suzaku that he is Zero and seeing what action the other will take. If Suzaku finds out/has found out on his own, that's another matter altogether.) This does not mean that he thinks he and Cornelia are no longer opponents. Cornelia has her side, and he has his. He knows there is very little chance that this will change. It just means that he's not as focused on overcoming her for the time being. He's still wary as hell, especially after their last talk. But their is that part of him that enjoyed being with his older sister because Lelouch is ever obsessed with the past, hence why his friendship with Suzaku means so much to him. It's also why he will do his best to never directly die to Euphie, although he does lie by omission.

And yes, many of Lelouch's friendships at camp were originally his desire to find people with special abilities who could be later used once an exit was determined. He tells himself that is why he continues to nurture them, but it's less true at the moment. Lelouch just likes believing he's a bad guy, although his intentions are not entirely wicked. The other thing is that Lelouch honestly enjoys the respite. The main reason why he was so agitated with his life before finding C.C. was because he thought it was useless and had no place. In a way, Lelouch has a place at camp, although there is still a huge gaping hole where his sister should be.

In conclusion, Lelouch still wants to DESTROY BRITANNIA. But he's willing to at least consider alternatives.

Hope that's what you were looking for.

On a scale of one to ten how mortified is Lulu post BEEMANITY campaign? And the fallout therein...

Also I totally misread your keywords as "penile" fire, go me.

That is their point, dear Mytho. Well that and Milton. But mostly that.

8 - 9. He spent a week sulking to C.C. in the sewers.

Lelouch is more upset about the loss of control than anything, his ill-planned use of the Geass, his making a mockery out of Zero and his nearly shooting Cornelia in the face. Also his breaking his promise to Euphie about not starting anything at camp. Of course, Lelouch is more upset about messing with certain people than others. But dark!Zero landed a serious blow to Lelouch's pride and confidence in his ability to walk his line of darkness. Those who talk to him might notice he's moodier than usual. And the headache he complains of refers mostly to his issues over what happened. He's realized most people have already forgotten the event with all the other happenings of camp so this eases him some. But he also realizes that should the time come, he will need to work harder to gain respect for Zero. As for the events with Cornelia (aside from his freak-out at almost fucking himself over and killing her), he is more perplexed by the situation, with how Cornelia is responding and, while still hesitant and cautious, is willing to see how things play out.

All in all, he's still recovering.

Is it cheating that I'm chiming in on this so late? POSSIBLY.

Lulu + Mistletoe * Mortification Factor^Dark Zero/(Geass) = X

Please show all work. Specifically how it applies to Asta (because I'm shallow and self-centered that way).

I'm using this icon because I probably won't get to again for a while. :(

Well, the first thing you have to realize about Lulu + Mistletoe is that while Lelouch cannot stand and may, in fact, fear the loss of control, he is also quite grateful to be able to use his anxiety over that as something to focus on other than how he actually feels about being kissed. Lelouch rarely acknowledges his hormones because he has so many other things on his mind that something as pointless as they get easily pushed aside. And some part of Lelouch does realize that certain kissing gathered a bit more attention than he was expecting. AND HE REALLY DOESN'T WANT TO CONSIDER THOSE IMPLICATIONS RIGHT NOW. Which of course circles right back into his control issues since this is obviously one thing he cannot control. So the true mortification is the realization that yes such things can affect him, regardless of how he subconsciously tries to ignore them. There are more important things.

Needless to say that all this less controllable stuff comes on the heels of the dark!Zero catastrophe gives Lelouch far too many things to think about at once. He is still reeling with the fear that camp could cause him to lose control in such a way again so anything that allows little time for rationalization and forces him to be purely reactionary makes him uneasy. Basically anything that he cannot explain with his baffling logic. To avoid this uneasiness, he also believes he can just not truly humor these things he's not well versed in (hormones/feelings), although, ironically, his quest to ignore them usually just results in him having to remember them in the first place. So it's just a cycle of "screw Lelouch" here.

As for Asta, I'm sorry to say that I don't think it was Asta Lelouch was kissing. And no, you're not getting any more than that, greedy greedy girl.

Oh, please. I suspected that much already. :D
