Wow this truly is an amazing story. I love the detail and this writing style. I love the close relationships between the characters especialy lelouch and euphemia. Please continue. Can't wait for the next chapter!

I'm intrigued at the premise of this story - Euphemia learning of the existence her family eariler than in canon - but there are times where the dialogue feels forced and artificial, as though the characters are delivering pre-made speeches that have yet to be tailored to their characters.

You describe Nunnally as a simple, shut-in girl who is known for little more than doting on her older brother, and yet near the end of chapter two she delivers a very wise and bitter monologue about the true cruelty of the world and why she cannot trust anyone from her Imperial family. This sounds like the explanation Lelouch might deliver, but it doesn't seem to fit the very young and Nunnally, who enjoys building paper cranes and makes pinkie-finger promises. She seems wise beyond her age.

I did enjoy the dialogues with C.C. The girl who glides around in a straight-jacket is appropriately whimsical and random, teasing Lelouch about kissing his sister or dropping all inhibitions at the promise of pizza.

The little nod to fanart culture (wings, they must have wings!) was a nice touch.

These relationships have considerably less and less depth as you go on with them... >_>;

W-whoa... This... Is AMAZING. Utterly amazing. I think it's brilliant; I love how you write, and I love how long the chapters are.

I can't wait for the next chapter! C:

That's different. Nina has been quite nicely improved. Too bad Shirley and Rivalz don't have much time but Rivalz was never more then a background character and Shirley a tragedic one.

I don't think its ever explained what NAC stands for exactly but i'll Hazard a guess.

Native Area Council

as in the same conversation that its first mentioned in cannon they say that the empires policy is for the numbers to be responsible for themselves, meaning the NAC rules the numbers and the Governor rules the Britanians and the NAC.

hence a name like Native Area Council makes sense, or it could be Number's Administrative council. or something else along those lines.

*sigh

No Lelouch/Anya? So sad. . .

I'm assuming your sticking to canon in that the Gawain's Hadron Cannons don't really work, as far as I know I've always heard of him being referred to as a Colonel(strange word I think it's Italian).

Ahem... anyways, so glad to have you update this story even if the chapter is a tad bit short still the drama and acxtion is awesome as usual and I would say that you most certainly have not fallen off the horse.

P.S. LMAO during the infirmary scene XD

Okay... this was awesome.

Marriane here was acting like Nightmare Fuel Unleaded... just dominating everything like this in the Gawain works so... so well...

I'm curious though, Gino now knows that Lelouch is Zero, so can we expect him doing some leaps of logic with regards to Marrians comments on C.C to think they may be able to help Anya?

Given the Nunnaly/Kallen so far... yuri? Or is Marriane going to hijack Kallen at some point?

Regards, Ossia.

dude i missed you and your story man you know how to nail most of the characters in character especially what lelouch says at the ending of this chapter that's the type of thing i feel he would say and do nice job on the chapter by the way man I'm excited to read your next chapter.

Are the Hadron cannons even working yet? They didn't work in canon until after Rakshata played with it. Though they did work for that other KMF, so maybe that's not it.

She didn't want to kill anyone? She's just that bad **?

Anyway, loved the chapter. Euphie's interaction with the three male members of the heavenly swords (minus Tohdoh was priceless).

Marianne is freaky scary. If i were Gino, i probably would have wet myself. Funny thing is (based on how little we know about her) you did a pretty good job in capturing her personality...and her sheer bad-assery.

Definitely a great job.

Woow...its still amazing!

Great chapter, glad to finally see an update for this. I loved this chapter! I had forgotten a few things, but I'm glad to see it up and running again. Cannot wait for more! Man, I'm really hating Suzaku right now. He has no right to take Nunnally from Lelouch! If he succeeds, I will kill him myself, if I have to.

I cannot wait for more! ALso, I found the bit with Euphie and the Four Holy Swords to be very amusing. Yes, I bet it was the pink hair that got Tohdoh. Can't wait for the next update!

> (other than the crazy, I mean).

You mean other than the canon reason that the Black Knights' Gawain's Hadron Cannons used a Gefjun Disturber to control their output, and such a thing was not demonstrated by the Brittannian forces until R2?

Oh Wow. It must be weird having your supposedly dead mother talking to you in someone else's body. I wonder if I will find little Hello Kitty designs on those pink bandages. XD. And oh yes, aw. I would love to have Lelouch as an older brother. Would be waiting for the next chapter.
