    Broken Valkyrie's Ascent
    Threadmarks: 2.17 The Power Behind the Throne

    And then, finally, the Rounds returned near the middle of August. There was no great or triumphant return, no parade or anything. The only reason Nunnally found out was the knock on Aries's doors in the afternoon. After spending so much time wrangling teenaged princesses without committing a...

    Threadmarks: 2.16 Teatime

    Slipping away was, if anything, even easier than getting into Aries undetected. Although C.C. did not blame the guards in this instance; they would not know the emergency tunnels only Marianne, Charles, and the Code Bearers were ever aware of. All it took was pulling down both braziers at the...

    Threadmarks: 2.15 Brave New World

    Kaguya's opinion was split. She was used to presenting a particular face to the world. But at the same time, she felt like having entered an entirely new world of late. Wearing a fancy if modest dress, jewelry, and hairpins was nothing totally new to her. Being bold about her presence, being...

    Good to know that English remains inconsistent wherever possible. As far as I was aware, any 'y' normally present turns into an 'i' if the 'ly' is added. Edit: either way, fixed. Thank you for pointing it out

    Threadmarks: 2.14 Stepping on Stones

    They only found time to dissect what happened the next morning. Court lasted another three hours, after which Nunnally had to lie down to soothe her throbbing headache. Dealing with snooty nobles for so long was one thing, but the myriad of pungent smells finished her off. Meanwhile, Lelouch...

    Threadmarks: 2.13 The Most Dangerous Game

    Somehow, Kallen accepted her lot after whatever Sayoko told her. Neither of them said what happened between them and Nunnally would never order her maid to spill the beans. All she and Lelouch got in that regard were some clear words about watching them carefully from Kallen. Nunnally paid the...

    Threadmarks: 2.12 Ugly Truths

    The Rounds left them with a lot of trouble. Even ignoring the sudden and very real prospect of marriage, Nunnally and Lelouch had to explain Geass to Kallen and Jeremiah. He took the reason for why he acted as he did during the Orange incident with relief. She was the opposite. Aside from when...

    Threadmarks: 2.11 Surprise Visit

    The first shock for Aries came early in the morning. It happened while the last maids and butlers sleepily crawled out of bed, just as the guards changed shifts. Most of them only heard about it later, mainly through gossip while cleaning. "Did you hear?" Cynthia told her coworkers...

    Good point. I thought I checked the dates, but Sayoko's 25th birthday is still a few months off. I will fix the ages to twenty-four.

    Threadmarks: 2.10 Unbroken Loyalty

    C.C. was the last to board the plane, and she did so in a staff uniform. She even hid her hair under a black wig. Yet when the time came, she joined the small group of passengers instead. "You really don't wanna be associated with us, do you?" Kallen quipped, only to get annoyed by the lack of...

    Threadmarks: 2.09 Mask Change

    Whatever fledgling hope for calm they still had was shattered within hours of Lelouch's and Nunnally's announced return. Invitations to official functions, dinner parties, and various other things fluttered in hourly. Their schedules were filled to the brim within two days. Kaguya laughed at...

    Threadmarks: 2.08 Bergentrückung

    Word of another princess in the country got around at an almost frightening speed. Even though there was little time to spread until the fourth of July, everyone seemed to know by then. Whispers of her visit to Princess Euphemia coursed across the populace, but her identity did not; Euphemia...

    Threadmarks: 2.07 The Bonds Between People

    Ashford Academy was calmer than usual. The students being on summer vacation aside, Millicent's graduation meant that everything had changed, or would change. Although Milly herself was still present. Nunnally sipped from the glass of wine she was allowed, watered down on her former...

    Threadmarks: 2.06 Royal Machinations

    Nunnally's heart fluttered almost painfully, but none of it showed on her face. She walked with her back straight, head held high. For all intents and purposes, her gait oozed confidence. She belonged here. Admittedly, entering the viceroy's palace was simple enough when dressed well. Her skirt...

    Threadmarks: 2.05 Reclamation of the Black Knights

    Just as Zero, no, Lelouch outlined, July 1st was the day it happened. A general assembly was called and nobody heard what it would be about. Ohgi did not need to be told to know. He caught Tohdoh's gaze as they shuffled into the hall. The older man offered a miniscule nod, standing not far from...

    Broken Valkyrie's Ascent

    All very possible. I have the feeling that subject fell off the cart because they had other stuff to cover. And even if they reached that philosophical question, the point you make would completely break one of the core premises of the whole series; freeing Japan. Regardless, I agree that...

    Threadmarks: 2.04 A Message For Kyoto House

    Kaguya was worried. Somewhat surprisingly, the meeting of the six heads around her was not the reason. Not even the renewed attempt by Munakata to arrange an engagement for her. Although it was ironic that he tried to set her up with Zero this time. No, Kaguya was worried about the upcoming...

    Threadmarks: 2.03 Paradigm Shift

    Ohgi felt more than a little awkward. Of course he talked to the Tohdoh more than once over the months, seeing how they were both in the Black Knights now. But it was never just the two of them. He felt tongue-tied, even though they just walked side by side to their destination. Tohdoh himself...

    Threadmarks: 2.02 The Omnipresence of Suffering

    Kaguya's tension bled away when she saw her friend walking up the street. She felt a little safer already, even if the people around still gave her a berth, sneers, or leers. That insecurity came back with a vengeance when she spotted the woman who followed Nunnally. Even with her hair done up...

    Threadmarks: 2.01 Calm Before the Storm

    "I only ask that you consider it," Zero closed genially. He had great amounts of practice with this pitch for the Black Knights by now, arguments selected and honed. Before him stood a band of Japanese men, thirteen in all. A small, insignificant resistance cell. They gathered in the half-dark...
