#code geass lelouch x reader

[lelouchenjoyer]

Theres no lelouch fics and the ones I find r so cringe cuz there like 5 years old lolo I should try writing some

[yandere-romanticaa]

Let me ramble about Lelouch a little, because he just deserves it.

Lelouch, who holds you in the palm of his hand but you also always manage to escape his grasp. Just when he thinks he has you, just when he thinks he can finally rest, you catch him off guard. Your mere existence foils his plans as it does not allow him to do what needs to be done. He sits in his chair, wearing the mask of Zero as he looks far away in the distance. To the untrained eye he looks as though he is scheming, coming up with future plans for the Black Knights to follow. But the way in which he gets startled gives him away, his quiet "Huh?" always making people like Tamaki chuckle and laugh in pure amusement.

"Well well, even a guy like Zero has a soft side!"

They have no idea just how utterly soft their brave leader really is.

Lelouch, who becomes absolute putty in your hands whenever you touch him, even if it was just accidental. He is used to the brutality of battle and blood, something so soft is... Ethereal. Unimaginable. It sets his heart ablaze, forcing him to speed up his plan just a little bit. He just wants you to be safe.

Lelouch, who can't read you at all and that drives him like crazy. He can't play you like the other pieces on his board, you're too precious for that. He is the King and you are the Queen on that board. He started to accidentally protect the Queen in actual chess matches instead of his King, much to the bewilderment of his opponents. In his mind, the King is worthless without the Queen. And in that same way, Lelouch would be nothing without you.

Could you please make a Lelouch x reader where reader is foreign royalty and was betrothed to Lelouch as a child but soon forgot about him after his fake death and found someone else? Remember to drink water and rest. Thank you!

Yandere Lelouch Vi Britannia

Arranged Marriages were common among royalty.

Lelouch was no exception in this regard.

However, you two got along really well with each other.

You liked each other and were close.

Lelouch would really need someone to trust after all.

It would be many years before you saw each other again.

But when you did it would be something special.

Lelouch tried to befriend you when you meeted again.

You will also become friends again.

Lelouch could feel your connection returning.

Everything would be fine… at least until you tell him you're engaged again.

He certainly wouldn't be happy.

However, he doesn't blame you for it.

Lelouch would try to hide his disappointment for you.

It wouldn't last long though.

Lelouch would need a plan.

He would do his best to break your and your partner's engagement.

Either through manipulation or through Geass.

The most important thing would be that you don't get to know the truth.

After this, Lelouch would be there to comfort you.

Yandere Lelouch vi Britania - Character Sheet I

Trigger warnings: emotional abuse, guilt tripping, imprisoning, physical abuse, victim blaming, manipulation, implied stalking

Attributes - What sort of Yandere is he/she?

As a yandere, he would be extraordinarily persistent. Even if he would have to wait years to see his plans come to fruition, he would cease his pursuit. Maybe he wouldn't have the power or the resources to properly court you or perhaps there would be other things keeping him occupied. Nevertheless, he would never forget you or the “love” he would hold in his heart for you. His thoughts would always dwell on you to a degree, no matter the time and distance, he would still loyally yearn for you and plot to entrap you. 

Likewise, he wouldn't let any attempts of yours to dissuade him from entering a relationship with you or any monologues on morality scare him away. The picture of a happy life with you would be crystal clear to him and he would strive to attain it no matter the cost. If he would have to set the world on fire to be by your side, then so be it. Also, he would try to combine his more political goals with obtaining you. Two birds with one stone, as they say. 

Another one of his traits would be his possessiveness towards you. You would be the apple of his eye, and also lack the agency he'd pride himself in. To him, you would be a morality pet, something to keep him grounded. At the same time, you would also be the princess in the tower - not a person that acts, but reacts at most. Your words would be frequently disregarded, because they simply wouldn't matter in the grand scheme of things. In the end you would be a source of enrichment and entertainment, you would need him in every way. On the other hand, Lelouch could survive very well without you, besides your death causing him to lose it and burn down the whole world. 

With you, he would be surprisingly playful. His usual apathy and the way he'd treat others in his school boy persona wouldn't make the transition all too noticeable. His image and role as Zero would stand in sharp contrast to this playfulness, yet would still be executed in a way that wouldn't seem alien to his role. Before he'd lock you away from the rest of the world, his teasing and suave attitude would lead other people to rib you about it and push you into Lelouch’s arms. There would be a lot of external pressure on you to enter a relationship with him, and he would count on this.

His aforementioned possessiveness would entwine with his protective tendencies to a horrid cocktail. You would become his motivation to usurp the world and warp it into what he would deem safe for you. Here, he would know what is best for you and he wouldn't tolerate your interference. Until then, he would just have to form your surroundings so that you wouldn't be crushed beneath the wheels of history, and that other people wouldn't exploit you to get at him. If it must be, then he would crush your dreams underfoot and lock you in a gilded cage. 

Standing in juxtaposition to the traits listed so far, would be the surprising amount of coldness he would display towards you. Kisses and hugs would be rare and there would be a surprising amount of emotional distance that he would maintain. This would be to prevent you from hurting him with any noncompliance or also rejection. And to throw off enemies. Deep down, this would also be a measure implemented to keep himself from losing control. You would mean the world to him, and that would be a weakness nobody would be allowed to know. 

Cornering - How would they get you?

Lelouch would make sure to approach you in an environment and setting where you are not enemies. To be noted is that he wouldn't shy away from creating a completely new identity and appearance in order to safely enter your social circle, if he would deem it necessary. If he would be a friendly face to you, then you would be less likely to notice the chains tightening. Besides, it would mean he could rely on human nature in the form of other people's meddling to push you closer. He would charm your friends and family and compatriots to encourage you to interact with you more, to paint him in a good light so that he would be more attractive to you. 

Or, he would or would also manipulate other external factors to push you closer to him. The important factor here would be that he'd do his utmost best to make it look like he had no influence or involvement over the ensuing incidents. People would spontaneously ditch you and he would just happen to be close by, his interests would coincidently overlap with yours and superiors/people of authority would just happen to assign you to work together. It would be painted as fate and he would try to convince you of such. It would be a romantic notion that would suit his roles of revolutionary and prince. 

Once he would have you secured, he would either slowly chip away at your social circle until you would only have him left. Perhaps he would even take further steps to disrupt your dreams, like having you injured or freezing your bank account/funds. It would be steps to make you dependent on him, and also emotionally vulnerable. Show weakness, and he'd worm his way through the cracks and infest the wound. 

Expectations - What do they expect of you?

He would treasure a sense of fragility in you, and try to nurture it. To him, you would be akin to a porcelain and just as pretty and precious. In ways, you would have your own elegance and nobility to you, something that would have to be protected from the cruel, cruel world that the both of you would inhabit. Like a figurine in a music box, you would have to be kept away from prying eyes and admired in privacy and security. Ideally, you would be reserved for his eyes only - a treasure that only he would really appreciate and know how to take care of you. Such a delicate thing like you would have kept in a strictly controlled environment, lest you wilt. And that would be exactly what he would do. 

Lelouch would love it if you would be eloquent and had a way with words. It would allow him to have long conversations with you deep into the night and until the wee morning hours. Being able to articulate yourself well is an art in and of itself and it would just add to your beauty in his eyes. Therefore, he would also use you as a proofreader for his speeches and constantly inquire about your opinion. In a way, he might even have you convinced that he would only have kidnapped you in order to conduct his propaganda machine. Generally, I see him as being very much drawn to a person with artistic leanings. 

Now for something more tricky - he would either wish for somebody feisty, or for somebody demure. The people in between wouldn’t really reel him in. On one hand, a person with spirit would be enchanting. Having somebody to but heads with, to be able to test his mettle and endurance against a person that would be just as uninclined to back down as he is. A lass or a lad that could match him blow by blow would stroke a fire in him. On the other, having a demure spouse that would match the description of a proper spouse would also be very fairytale-esque. He would have his very own personal happy ending that he could look forward to. You would present the chance to switch off at the end of the day and indulge in a lifestyle that is more at home in myths than in reality. 

Something that would also be attractive to him would be if you would be the analytical sort of person. Going hand in hand with that trait would be a tendency to overthink, a weakness that he would exploit to its fullest. He would have you tripping over your own trains of thought and thinking yourself into knots. Somebody that can at least hold a candle to his flame would catch his eye, and he would inspect you thoroughly. Lelouch would revel in playing mind games with you - he would take it to the point that it would very much be psychological torture.   

Faded - Would they let go of you in any way?

Not really - he'd burn the world to cinders before letting you go. Your death would destroy something in him, and thus he would lose interest in saving the world or leading humanity to a more prosperous future. Indeed, he might just as well seek to punish the world for taking you away from him. On the other hand, if you were to be kidnapped or severely injured or somebody put out of his reach, then his actions would be driven by a frightful desperation. There would be a sense of urgency in his actions and he would be far more prone to lashing out. When he'd have you in his arms again, he'd melt like butter in the sun. Privately of course. 

So, one of the few ways he would be able to “let go of you”, would be if he would suffer from amnesia and completely forget about you. There would still be the persistent feeling of something missing, yet he wouldn't be chasing after you or razing the world so it would still be better than him pining after you. Of course, if he would regain his memories or also find out the truth, there would be hell to pay. 

Another option would be if he'd have a replacement goldfish of you in the form of a clone or digital copy. It goes without saying that it wouldn't really compare to the real deal, but he would accept it as compensation. Another option would be you having a Geass that would allow you to live past the demise of your mortal flesh. He would be frustrated, yet it would lead him to declaring war on humanity as a whole.

Punishment - How would they proceed if you do something they disapprove of?

Many of the things he'd do that you'd categorised as punishment would be protective measures in his mind. If you were a bird, then he would clip your wings. Likewise, if you would prove to be particularly difficult, then he would injure you. That way, you would be vulnerable and dependent on him. Chances are that he would manage to create a trauma bond. With most of your energy invested in healing, you wouldn’t really have time to contemplate escaping. Besides, the pain and the feebleness would make you more compliant and your sick state would make him more inclined to dote on you. 

Aside from that, he might force you to wear uncomfortable shoes or even bind your feet. This way, you wouldn’t really be able to run away even if you would be inclined to. Your helplessness would make him softer towards you and he might decide to give you one or the other treat as compensation. Something about your helplessness would trigger the more protective side of him, regardless if he would be the cause of your suffering. 

What would really be labelled as punishment, would be spreading rumours about you. If you decide to make his life difficult, then he would reciprocate the gesture with interest attached to it. The nice side effect here would be that he would see your wits in action, and also have the chance to chip away at your social circle. If he would have already passed the point of no return (kidnapping you and treating you like a princess in an ivory tower) then he would remove treasured possession or also the means to exercise the meagre hobbies that he would allow you. Should you ask, then he would either gaslight you until you either question your own grip on reality or give in and apologise. Or he would spell it all out so that you understand exactly what happened and why and that you would hold any misconceptions about the situation. After all, you would have to learn the rules of the game somehow. 

Misbehaviour would also be blamed on your friends and loved ones and former lords. As such, he would punish them to punish you. In the most extreme cases, you would unpack another gift from him to only find a head in the box. This would also be one of his cruellest methodes, one that would be designed to give you a mighty shock and grant you a few sleepless nights. Or, he would show you photos and videos and other media to show you ruining their lives. Could you handle blood being spilled because of your disobedience?

Reaction - How would they react to you escaping?

Interestingly enough, he would be the sort to panic. In his eyes, you would be a fragile doll and running away would only lead to your demise or wounding. Lelouch would storm around the quarters he would keep you in and interrogate anybody that could have an inkling of your whereabouts. During this frantic search he would pray to whatever higher power there may be that the worst had not really come to pass. 

Naturally, he wouldn't be able to show his anxiety in some situations nor would he be able to question just about anyone. Nevertheless, he would be far less controlled and careful and it would bleed through whatever facade he would throw up. 

He would invent some mission for the Black Knights or the military that would include retrieving you. As mentioned before, he would be waspish the entire time and his patience would constantly be worn thin. The yandere here would also switch to severe micromanaging, and his comrades in arms would put effort in getting you back just so that the status quo could return. 

If it would be a more domestic matter, he would conspire with Collin to get you back - the latter would do so for the gossip and to return Lelouch to a more bearable state.

Turnabout - Scenario: You have the upper hand? What would be different from their usual MO?

Flipping the tables would leave Lelouch feeling very queasy. He would be well versed enough in actual politics and such to know that the more powerful person in a relationship wouldn't be omnipotent or omnipresent. As such, he would still have freedoms he could utilise and stunts he could pull. He might garner himself a powerful patron and then play them out against you, or oppose you by threatening to involve them. However, he would never be able to bear being under somebody else's thumb. He would make himself indispensable to you in one way or another so that you would need him. Once his position would be established, he would weedle concession after concession out of you. 

Should it devolve into a situation where you would have the upper hand due to him being injured, sick or bereaved, then he would pull at your heartstrings and your personal integrity to make you docile. He would be awfully chatty and demanding during this time, all in order to occupy your time and keep you from realising that you could simply walk away. 

If he would end up as a prisoner at your mercy, then he would strive to be high maintenance if only to enjoy more of your attention that you would willingly give him. He wouldn't like you having the upper hand due to the increased likelihood of betrayal and because he would see himself as having a better overview and plan of your life than you do. 

Vengeance - What would they do in the face of competition?

Ruin lives, dish out military defeats, dial up the propaganda - the usual in most cases. If he can, he might simply have his opponent slaughtered in military combat. In the case of the opposition being particularly tenacious, then he would take matters in his own hands and fight them personally. 

Otherwise, he would use his Geass to make them commit social suicide. Let them see how their chances are with you after they have humiliated themselves in front of you. Given the strength of his powers, he could also make them commit suicide. Perhaps he would kill two birds with one stone and make them kick the bucket in a way that will further his other ambitions.

All that aside, there would also be the good o'l manipulation where he'd drip poison into your ears to make you cut off contact with the people in his way. Or he could do it the other way around: he could  convince his rivals to give you a large berth.

Saving Grace

25 Days of Simpmas: Day Seven December 7th: Lelouch Lamperouge, Rank 19 Anime: Code Geass Event Masterlist

“Oh dear. That Zero. He truly is. A terrifying man. I sure hope. I don’t run. Into him.” 

Your choppy, robotic commentary was the best you could contribute to the student council’s latest fearful rant about the masked man, Zero, but luckily no one aside from Lelouch had seemed to notice your insincerity. 

He smirked to himself as he pretended to flip through paperwork, clearly amused by your awful acting. 

It was fine that he’d taken notice. You’d meant that comment for your boyfriend anyway. Ever since you found out that you were dating the leader of the Black Knights, you couldn’t help but poke fun at the whole situation. When you didn’t want to go to class, you’d say to him, “Boy. I’m really not feeling math class today. Would be a shame if some… vigilante were to burn down the math wing today. Cancel classes. I’m just saying, I wouldn’t mind.” When you were stuck in traffic, you’d sigh and say “Boy, I could really use a Knightmare right about now, just march through all the traffic. I wonder if I know anyone that has one.” Lelouch would chuckle to himself in the driver’s seat (because, of course, you were his passenger princess), and then he’d say something like, “And what if I was enjoying this alone time with you?” 

He always enjoyed his time with you. 

Sometimes he could even forget he had the weight of the world on his shoulders because you were his world and you made him feel weightless. 

Sure, you teased him for being Zero, asked if the cape was really necessary or if he just liked being dramatic, asked how he could pilot a Knightmare when he could barely figure out the settings on the new TV, asked if he was really just cheating on you to go on dates with Suzaku and if so, could you join in? But at the end of the day, when all the joking and jesting subsided, more than being his alibi, you were his partner in crime, his ride or die, and you’d stay by his side until the end of time. 

You’d do anything for him. And he’d do anything for you; he’d be anything for you. Every day that he was Zero was another day that he was building a better world for you to live in. 

To some, Zero was a hero, a revolutionist, a symbol of hope; to others, Zero was a terrorist, an egoist, a power hungry maniac. To you, he was a reminder that somebody cared enough to be your sword, your shield, your suit of armor. And underneath that mask, he was still just a boy you were in love with, a boy who’d promised to come home to you each and every night, a boy who held himself to that promise more than he did anything else. He could be half dead, seeing stars, spitting blood, and he’d still stumble his way to your door. 

You were always waiting at the door. Waiting to clean him up, to bandage his wounds, to tell him about your day, ask him about his, kiss him all better, cuddle him to sleep, fight off his demons with nothing more than your smile. 

He kept a picture of your smiling face on him at all times, for just that reason. If he was going to die on some battlefield, somewhere far away from you, at least your smile could reach him, at least your smile could carry him to heaven when he more than deserved hell. 

And when he got too wrapped up in his own thoughts, counting his sins, plotting his plagues, you were his guardian angel, pulling him from his purgatory. 

You’d knock on his head lightly. “So serious. Must be some heavy planning going on in there. Save some brain cells for the rest of us.” Then you’d kiss his forehead over and over, massaging his temples with your thumbs, until he’d stopped thinking of anything but your touch. 

Sometimes you’d try the cape on. Flounce around in it. Give dramatic bows. Do a little dance. And all his battery strategy would go out the window, laughter replacing it. 

Sometimes he’d even have to reschedule his plans because you were so distracting. Of course, he’d have to come up with some brilliant excuse, because how else was he supposed to admit to the entirety of the Black Knights that he’d cancelled waging war on an enemy base just because his girlfriend refused to go watch a movie without him but today was the only day the movie was airing? He couldn’t very well tell them that the all-seeing, all-powerful Zero caved to her whims before she even stooped to begging. He couldn’t very well tell them that the mere thought of her pouting had him scooping her up in his arms and taking off with her, ready to fulfill her every fantasy. He couldn’t very well tell them that sometimes he considered quitting his little conquests just so he could have more time to make her breakfast in bed or play with her hair until she woke up. 

Even the way you woke up was angelic. 

The way you blinked the sleep from your eyes, searching for him, reaching for him, before you were even conscious enough to realize you were doing so. Then the way you smiled when you found him, wrapping your arms around him like you’d never let go again and snuggling into his chest like it was home. He wasn’t sure what he’d done to deserve you. He’d not done nearly enough. 

He often thought to himself that if judgement day ever came, if he was ever allowed a pardon for his many sins, he’d owe his redemption all to you. If he was ever soft, if he was ever kind, if he was ever good, it was because of you. If his hands were stained, you washed them clean. If his soul was darkened, you brought your light. If he was a devil, you were an angel.

And you were his saving grace.

Geeked^2 vs Locked In

[estrella-zoe39]

i love dumping random shit onto my tumblr anyway weird discussion of the most random fandoms combined go! mostly discuses love as core themes of stories.

i think my favourite pieces of media are those that just dont make sense if you dont view them as a love story. i came across this discovery as i was watching code geass ep 17 when lulu goes insane when he realises the one thing thats in his way is also the person he trusts completely. there is no other genuine explanation other than love for the reasoning of his reaction in that scene. with shirley he had this mellow yet sorrowful reaction when he realised he couldnt be with her anymore. not saying there wasnt a part of him that didnt love her but with suzaku? he goes berserk. whatever he felt couldnt have happened if he didnt love suzaku.

other good examples of this are frieren, orv, and house. there are more my brain is just kinda fried rn and i think these three are good examples of like. varying levels of how explicit the message is. (theyre all obvious af tho)

ill start with frieren because i think if youve even like. heard about it youll know but himmel and frierens relationship really is the core of like the entire story. a boy who loved too soon and a girl who loved too late. frieren just isnt. frieren when you take that away. frieren at its like core is about love you cant just remove that because then the story wouldnt be the same it probably wouldnt even exist!!! and im sure everyone knows this its just surprising how frieren isnt officially a romance manga considering its entire premise

another example is orv which is a bit harder to know if youve only read the webtoon. orvs story just wouldnt exist if hsy didnt love kdj. if she didnt write yjh and then kdj wouldve died, plain and simple. and if kdj didnt love the story back then he wouldve also died. hsy, yjh, and kdj at their core are their love for each other. hsy spent 12 years writing a book everyday just for kdj to keep on living and in kaizenix she waited 50 years for him. yjh spent the entirety of orv learning how to love from kdj, through fighting alongside him, through protecting him, through seeing him die, even when he learned he wasnt real he still believed him, and in the end yjh was the one who let kdj be known in every universe. his mission was something that he only could brave through if he loved kdj. and he did. speaking of kdj, i think its very obvious to everyone but his self-sacrificial nature is due to him only knowing that as a love language. something else is how without kdjs love, orv also just wouldnt exist. if his love for twsa, for the chars, for STORIES, didnt exist, he wouldnt be alive. if he didnt keep on molding twsa, to be alongside every yjh and co, to suggest new plot points, he wouldve never came to love it.

onto my last example, house. now i think you gotta be a very specific type of person to catch them (its called not being homophobic) but man are house and wilson like. house the show itself. their love defines the show, from the first scene to the last. he only took that first case which started everything because of wilson. half of his stupid antics are because of wilson. his love starts and ends at wilson because he knows wilson will be the one person who will always be there consistently for him. because no matter what happens, like house getting sent to trial by tritter, or house failing to save amber, they will be together, whether they want to or not. so when wilson is diagnosed with cancer, he breaks. the one person who he thought would always be there for him. isnt. in fact, he'll die first. and so, he does everything. he listens to wilsons stupid fucking ideas because he needs wilson to be there for him, he needs wilson at his grave, not him at wilsons. thats why he gives everything to wilson, his vicodin, his attention, and even his life. the only reason he dies is so he can be with wilson. none of this actions can be done without love in them, absolutely none. i think my favourite quote of them is "if house chops down a tree, and wilson isnt around to hear it, did it really fall?" it just sums up their stupid, needy, insane, and romantic dynamic so much.

all of these pieces of media need love in them to be them, so i hope ive loved them more than they could ever want, despite some of their flaws 🩷🩷🩷

Hey 🤗

Before making the request, I wanted to tell you I really like how and what you write ❤️

I saw the scenario of the first kiss you did for Naruto characters, could you also do it for Lelouch, Suzaku, male Kallen and male Cornelia (I'm obsessed with them in the male version; if you don't mess with characters' genderbends, you can not do them), please?

Thank you very much 😘

Code Geass ~First kiss~

Manga/anime: Code Geass

Warnings: nothing

(Y/N): your name

Kal: male Kallen

Cornelius: male Cornelia

Thank you very much for the compliment! Yes, I can make stories with male versions of female characters, but I'd rather not do the opposite.

"Z-Zero?" A meek voice rings out in the temporary headquarters of the Black Knights.

Lelouch blinks from behind his mask and looks away from some documents to look at the voice that had called him. (Y/N) was there, playing with her hair and with her pink-tinged cheeks, avoiding eye contact with her leader. The boy lets out a small sigh behind his mask, annoyed at being disturbed.

"What happens?" (Y/N) flinches at his words and shifts uncomfortably, the pink turning red on her cheeks.

"W-well, Tamaki told me you wanted to talk to me about the plan..." Lelouch's purple eyes narrow: he had never told Tamaki to call her. Damn Tamaki, he did it to embarrass me, the boy thinks.

The leader is both frustrated by the interruption of his work and annoyed by Tamaki's prank, but he suppresses the urge to get angry to avoid scaring the already intimidated girl in front of him. Actually, not because he doesn't want to scare the girl, but because he doesn't want to scare (Y/N): ever since Lelouch met (Y/N) at school a few months before obtaining the Geass, he's always felt a very strong attraction towards her; then, that attraction turned into love.

Furthermore, when she showed up in front of Zero, saying she wanted to join the Black Knights, his first instinct was to forbid her from participating in the missions due to the fear she would get hurt. However, the boy was then dissuaded from carrying out that behavior by C.C. to avoid anyone noticing his preference for the girl.

So, Lelouch quickly thinks about how to extricate himself from the complicated situation he's in: "(Y/N), I-"

He can't even finish the sentence he was about to say, because a loud sound screeches in their ears, echoing in the room occupied by Zero and (Y/N). The girl is stunned and closes her eyes, preparing for the worst, when they feel the ground shake and pieces of the ceiling begin to collapse. When she doesn't feel any pain, she opens her eyes.

"Z-Zero? A-are you okay? A-are you hurt?" One of Lelouch's arms is against the wall next to (Y/N); the other arm holds her close, caging her body with his and acting as a shield.

"I'm fine." The boy pulls away from the girl, loosening his grip.

After standing a little distance from her, Zero calmly presses a button on the side of his mask with one hand, shocking and astounding (Y/N) when she hears the whirring of gears, causing the back of the mask to retract.

"Z-Zero, what are you-"

"Answer me, (Y/N) -he interrupts her- are a few months enough to fall in love?"

"I-I think anything is possible in love. Why did you ask me this?"

(Y/N) swallows, watching the boy adjust his mask so his mouth is visible.

"Because I'm madly in love with you." The girl doesn't even have time to realize what he said, before Lelouch grabs her face and brings it close to his, and presses his lips to hers.

"Suzaku, I'm scared" (Y/N) whispers.

While she and her brother Schneizel were in a meeting, an attack by the Black Knights was reported, so Suzaku, (Y/N)'s Knight, grabbed her hand and started running to carry her to safety.

After they moved away from the attacked area, the princess felt the pressure collapse on her; she burst into tears, both because of the fear for her life and because of the concern everyone had managed to escape to safety.

The girl feels strong arms around her and then herself being carried against a warm body. Her eyes open: she sees her Knight embracing her.

"I'll protect you, princess." Suzaku says softly in (Y/N)'s ear, holding her tighter to him.

"S-Suzaku..." The princess murmurs in surprise, looking at him shyly and sweetly, heat flooding her cheeks.

Suddenly, loud battle noises ring out and the sounds of explosions, which cause the ground to shake, almost causing the princess to fall, are heard. Suzaku's eyes widen a little, and he immediately turns, almost as if to go back.

"Where are you going?" She cries.

"I must go back to fight with 'Lancelot'. Please, princess, stay here, so you'll be far enough from the combat zone."

"But Suzaku, you have to follow me -she whispers- I'm scared."

"Princess -the boy approaches the girl, with his eyes full of pain- I have to fight again to protect you." (Y/N) knows Suzaku must respect his duties as a Knight.

"But... You can't protect me if you're there." The girl says, trying to convince the boy to stay with her, since she doesn't want him to go because she fears he might die.

"I have to go -Suzaku replies with regret- those from the R&D Division have already called me before: they need 'Lancelot'."

"Wait!" (Y/N) screams as her Knight turns and takes a few steps towards the headquarters Zero attacked, running to hug him from behind and starting to sob.

"Please, please, don't go! I already lost Euphy, don't leave me too!" The princess can't breathe because of the tears and sobs, and she's crying so much she can hardly stand up straight: she's in the middle of hysterics.

So, Suzaku immediately hugs (Y/N), first hesitantly, fearing her panic attack might get worse, then more tightly, after seeing she showed no sign of resistance and, indeed, she seemed to calm down the closer he was to her.

"I'll never leave: I'll always stay next to you and protect you."

Minutes pass, and (Y/N) slowly calms down, cradled in her Knight's arms and soothed by his sweet, relaxing words.

"Hold out your hand." Suzaku says, placing a watch on his princess' outstretched hand, and he continues: "This watch is very important to me: it's the last gift my father gave me. Keep it safe for me -he gently closes her hand- and, when we meet again, you can return it to me. I swear I'll come back to you."

After saying that, the boy starts to turn around, but the girl calls his name, so he turns back again to look at her.

"Princess?"

"I love you, Suzaku! Please, come back." After saying those words, which shocked him, (Y/N) looks at her Knight softly, and she gently presses her lips to his.

Britannian Military Prison in Japan, evening.

After another day of torture, (Y/N) is in her cell, hurt, sore and crying in pain.

Unfortunately, the Britannian Military had discovered the girl was one of the Black Knights' girlfriend, so it had captured her and has continued to torture her to have information about them. However, it was wrong: (Y/N) didn't even know her boyfriend Kal was one of the Black Knights.

While the girl was reflecting on her boyfriend, a very loud noise is heard and the ground begins to shake, and her cell's door is thrown open. That scares her a lot, so she tries to hide herself in the most remote corner of her cell. Nevertheless, it isn't a soldier who enters, but a tall man, dressed in black and with a mask on his face: he's one of the Black Knights.

"(Y/N)!" The girl recognizes the man by his voice.

"Ohgi? It's you?"

(Y/N) already knows Ohgi: he had come to Kal's house several times while they were together; her boyfriend said he was a friend of his brother and, after his death, he continued to come to visit him. The girl never would have thought that kind man was one of the Black Knights.

"Yes, it's me. (Y/N), are you ok? Kal was so anxious about you... Come, he's waiting for you outside." Ohgi holds out his hand towards her, but (Y/N) pulls away.

"I don't want!"

"Why?"

"I don't want to see Kal: he lied to me the whole time! I don't want to go back to him! Please come back. I don't want you to get hurt because of me."

The man looks at the girl for a few seconds, torn between whether to leave or try to convince her to follow him. However, before Ohgi can make a decision, sounds of footsteps are heard, and then a head pops out of the door: Kal.

"(Y/N)!" Kal rushes to embrace (Y/N), wrapping his arms around her waist and burying his face in the crook of her neck. Nevertheless, she doesn't feel good in his embrace like all the other times: his lie has hurt her too deeply. In fact, she violently and quickly breaks away from the embrace.

"Stay away from me!" The poor girl screams, quickly pulling away and falling to the ground from the force she broke away with.

"Darling?" The boy tries to move closer to his girlfriend, but she pulls away again, trembling and almost crying from the pressure and worry.

"What happens? Are you ok? What have they done?"

"The soldiers hurt me, but you hurt me more: why did you lie to me? You were taking advantage of me, weren't you? I'm a Britannian, were you pretending to love me just to get information about the Britannians?"

"No!" Kal exclaims.

"I swear to you: I've never taken advantage of you. When I fell in love with you, I wasn't one of the Black Knights yet; after I became one, I didn't want to tell you anything because I didn't want to worry you or put you in danger." He continues more calmly, gently helping the girl to get up.

"You don't necessarily have to continue to be my girlfriend, but at least let me continue to protect you, please. I don't want anything to happen to you again." After saying that, Kal hugs (Y/N) again, taking care not to hurt her, and he brings his face closer to hers, until they touch their foreheads.

"Will you let me protect you?" After she gives her nod, the Black Knight captures his girlfriend's lips with his in a tender kiss, while continuing to hold her tightly, as if protecting her from all harm.

"I'm sorry."

"Don't be."

"Sorry." (Y/N) repeats, as she finishes treating Cornelius' many wounds.

"I already told you not to be." The prince replies.

They both remain silent for a few minutes. (Y/N) is embarrassed to be so close to the person she loves, Cornelius is trying to repress the groans of pain caused by his wounds.

"Are you angry?" The woman breaks the silence, worried her superior was angry with her. In fact, (Y/N) was a new Knightmare Frames pilot, but, during her first mission, an attack against the Japan Liberation Front, a disaster happened: the group led by Prince Cornelius, in which she had been placed, was the victim of a surprise assault, and (Y/N) would have died if it weren't for her commander, who threw himself into the path of a spear to save her, but injuring himself.

"Not with you." The prince answers.

"Why not with me?"

"Why should I be angry with you?"

"I was careless. I almost got myself killed. Because of me you got hurt!" The soldier screams with a broken voice, surprising Cornelius with her outburst.

The man, recovered from the shock of the woman's outburst, smiles almost sweetly, and he gently caresses her head.

"Don't worry. I don't care you cause me trouble or I hurt myself to save your life."

(Y/N) wonders if what Cornelius told her was some kind of confession, while blushing profusely. Nevertheless, despite wanting to ask him the meaning of those words, she can't say anything other than an apology.

"Stop apologizing or I'll get angry."

"Excu-" (Y/N) stops before finishing the sentence.

"I can't help saying that!" Due to her phrase, the prince bursts out laughing, making the soldier blush again.

"I've done it!" The woman exclaimes happily and, after seeing the man's confused look, she continues, but with a bit of shyness: "Since you're always so serious and, forgive me if I say it, even a little sad, I set myself the goal of making you laugh at least once."

After a few seconds of silence, Cornelius murmurs: "You're wonderful, (Y/N), you know?"

"Really? Are you serious?"

Without even realizing it, the soldier steps closer to her superior, taking his right hand in hers.

"I really mean it." The prince whispers, tucking a strand of her hair, which had escaped from her bun, behind her ears with the hand that wasn't held by hers.

"I think this is why I fell in love with you." Without giving (Y/N) time to realize his words, Cornelius bows his head and presses his lips softly and delicately to hers.

🏫School Mates (SuzaLulu x Reader)PT 1🏫

A/N: Testing the waters with posting the few fanfic content I have out so far for one of my nine fave anime ever. This reworked piece I've had for a long while is coming out. This AU is where you're a late new student at Ashford Academy. Yeah, it's sort of a love triangle. Hopefully, I can make this short story make sense in some way. All credit for Code Geass characters and pics goes to Sunrise.

DON'T COPY OR STEAL MY FANWORK, RATHER LIKE AND REBLOG. I hope you enjoy.

"Y/n … Y/n … Y/N!"

You get awoken from your dream by the calling of your name. Your head resting on your folded arms snaps up in attention to who spoke out only to spot violet eyes trained on you, exasperatedly looking at you.

"Being the new student and sleeping during class isn't a good way to make a good impression. Be grateful you sit behind me, otherwise you'd have your neck strung out by the teacher."

You then noticed students parting as class was over "Mmm … sorry … Lelouch." You mumble sleepily as your rub your tired eyes.

Said man, Lelouch, glared a bit more before his eyes softened, sighing before running a hand through his hair. "Honestly, where would you be without me?"

"I'd be dead." You dully uttered. You get hit lightly on the head by a rolled up paper, making you pout at him. "Hey!"

"No time for jokes. Come on, the others are waiting." Lelouch put the paper in his bag before taking your hand and pulling you to your feet, dragging you behind him.

"Lelouch, I can walk to the student council room just fine without you dragging me like a rag doll." You pitifully moaned as you felt sparks run through your hand as his held yours tighter taking the lead.

"You've been attending here for weeks now and you still get lost in these halls." Lelouch reminded you in matter of fact tone. His tone made you stick your tongue out with his back facing you. "And I'd quit sticking my tongue out if I were you or else you'll attract flies."

"Come on, Lelouch. Cut her some slack. She's still a late transfer, after all." An amused voice lightly chided as your free hand was held by a callous, warm hand that easily pulled you free from Lelouch's grip. "I got your back, Y/n." You turned around to see Suzaku in time as he gently bumped your shoulder with his fist, smiling carefree.

"My knight in shining armor," you softly cheered as you hugged Suzaku's arm, giving a closed eye smile as both guys blushed as they thought it was one of the cutest smiles they've ever seen. "Thank you."

"You're welcome." Suzaku laughed a bit, smiling toothily back at you.

"If you two are going to flirt in my face, I'm not sticking around to watch." Lelouch rolled his eyes, he almost sounded like he was jealous; especially when deep down he didn't like you hugging Suzaku's arm in his presence. And he didn't know he would feel that sort of emotion over such a silly thing. But he couldn't keep a small smile from growing on his face as he shook his head to clear those ridiculous thoughts. "Come on, you two."

When you did arrive …

"Okay everyone, time for GUTS~!" Milly was loud and flamboyant as always.

"Aw come on, Prez! Another guts spell right from the start?" Rivalz complained, even though underneath he was secretly swooning for her hard.

"Um … hello …" Nina was typing at her computer, being meek as usual.

"Nice of you three to finally show up." Kallen said nonchalantly.

"Hi, Lulu~! Ready for another day of good old student council work~!?" Shirley ran over to greet Lelouch, teeming with a giddy, enthusiastic personality.

"Ready as always. You all should know that by now." Lelouch smiled charmingly, making Shirley almost swoon as the meeting commenced.

As the daily meeting began and went on for an hour and a half, you couldn't help but have your eyes travel around the room, landing on each single person. Every person here welcomed you into their school lives and their personal lives in some way.

Milly was as flirtatious as she was dramatic in her own lovable way.

Rivalz crushing on the pres hard while also being a goofball.

Nina, well, she was a shy introvert but a genius beneath … even though there were times you felt suspicious towards her.

Shirley, such an upbeat, enthusiastic girl with a good heart even though she's obviously falling hard for Lelouch and making it so obvious to everyone.

And Kallen, looks calm and mysterious on the surface but you had a feeling there was more to her and you had no idea why but you kinda like her for it. They slowly but surely became the first ever friends you ever made.

Soon, the meeting ended and you walked between Lelouch and Suzaku to the clubhouse which is also Lelouch's home on campus that he shared with his maid Sayako; you get the impression there was more to her like with Kallen as someone not to underestimate, and his little sister Nunnally … she was like the little precious sister you never thought you wanted; spending quality time with her especially when Lelouch was away doing his own thing.

Speaking of, Lelouch and Suzaku even … they were like two sides of the same coin. Two peas in a pod. So similar yet so different in their own respective ways. Lelouch is the brains, Suzaku is the brawn, but put them together … there's nothing they can't accomplish. You couldn't have one without the other and you wouldn't have it any other way.

In fact, it was Lelouch himself that allowed you to live with him and his sister in the clubhouse and asked Milly to convince her grandfather to allow it since the dorms on campus were already full. You may not remember much of your life before coming here, but a lot of meaning was brought back into your life, gaining new memories and a new life instead.

'So, why do I still have this nagging feeling in the back of my mind … this added pressure deep within my heart for how I feel towards these two guys … seems familiar. Whether it's good or bad … I don't know.'

♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡

"I like pancakes with marshmallows on top~! Heeheehee~! Yippee~! Whee~!" You blurted out randomly, causing Nunnally to laugh gleefully as she clapped, making you laugh too. You had just finished dinner with Nunnally and the guys; Suzaku was invited to eat over since he's their occasional guest as well as their childhood friend, and you were currently playing with Nunnally's hair. From the moment you met her, your heart instantly melted at the pure innocence that is Nunnally Lamperouge that compelled you to protect the precious girl with all your might!

"Oh, I'd love to try that sometime! Can we?" Nunnally had hope laced in her voice.

"Your wish is my command, my lady." Lelouch smiled charmingly, bowing before his little sister, making her giggle.

"I second that request, please." You raised your hand, smiling bashfully.

"At your service, my lady." Suzaku appeared by your side, also bowing to you, making your cheeks heat up and feel all fluttery inside. His eye closed smile radiated sunshine that is this wholesome boi.

As Lelouch gathered the empty plates to take to the kitchen to clean them up, you noticed him stopping to side glance at you, nodding his head for you to follow, before walking through the doorway. "I um … I'll be back in a bit, Nunna."

"Okay. Suzaku, do you want to make paper cranes with me? Miss Sayako and I were working on some earlier."

"That sounds fun. I'd love to." Seeing him gaze affectionately at her like another older brother to her made your heart skip a beat before you walked to the kitchen.

You spotted Lelouch's back to you as he washed the dishes. You slowly approached him, feeling nervous as you wondered what he wanted. You rubbed your arm as you do when you're anxious. The sound of his voice made you halt in your tracks.

"You and Nunnally have gotten closer over time. It feels like just yesterday when I met you; a meek new girl to our class. And yet, as days passed by, that very same girl became a part of our daily lives. As a school mate, then a student council member, and now a friend. For what was once hollow is now becoming whole again. At least, that's my basic sum of it."

You felt your stomach tie itself in knots as you timidly approached him, "And now?"

You watched as the reflection of his calm face in the window above the sink looked back at you; his violet eyes twinkling with speculation, before looking over his shoulder, now looking amused. "You look like a scared little thing with that look on your face. Relax. I'm not gonna bite."

"A – Are you sure about that?" You gulped audibly.

"I'm serious. I'm grateful to you for being here for Nunnally in my stead. Don't get me wrong. I'm grateful to Sayako and the student council being around to spend time with her when I'm busy with stuff … and I don't say this as much as I should … but … thank you." The smile he gave to you felt genuine and it made your heart flutter.

"It – it's fine. Nunnally … she's an absolute angel. And I'm grateful to her and you and everyone for accepting me into the student council and your friend group – !"

You stop speaking mid sentence. You froze, stunned in shock at the feel of lips pressed against your cheek. It took you a minute before you blinked your eyes back into focus from the daze you were in. "Consider this my gift to you."

You slowly raised your hand to touch your cheek; the tingling feeling where his lips touched your skin made something within you click into place. Your eyes traveled to meet his; you swore you just saw them glow magenta for a moment there. But his eyes were fine. Very fine in your opinion as you became lost in their beautiful violet sea; almost like delving deep into his soul and searching for something beyond your understanding.

You felt an unfathomable pull to him, making you lean closer as you noticed he did the same when the realization that Lelouch kissed your left cheek made you snap out of it; face aflame as you covered your mouth to muffle your squeak of surprise, snapping Lelouch of his apparent trance as well as he blinked several times to get back into focus.

"Mmm … I swear, everything I say and do gets you so easily flustered, doesn't it?" He laughed softly, even though his cheeks were flushed red too.

"N – No!" That just made him snicker in his hand. "I ��� I should head back now."

"But seriously, Y/n." You looked back to see his smile still there, tender and true. "Thanks."

"Anytime."

You returned to the living room and felt a smile break out at the sight of Nunnally and Suzaku smiling, laughing, making paper cranes together when Suzaku noticed you and waved you over to help out. But you were still reeling from what transpired in the other room.

'Lelouch kissed me. Of all people, me! It was on the cheek, but still! I don't know that much about his personal life; aside from his gambling trips with Rivalz. Did he kiss anyone before, cheek or otherwise? Before me?' You couldn't get that image of Lelouch's bemused expression out of your mind. You also couldn't ignore the fact that you felt Suzaku's eyes on you, a suspicious glaze to them.

Sooner than you expected, it was time for Suzaku to leave. You were lost in thought as you watched Suzaku bent down to hug Nunnally before nodding at Lelouch only to have your name being called on, pulling you out of it to say good bye. But as he smiled and waved, walking out the door, you watched his retreating form while Lelouch pushed Nunnally's wheelchair to her bedroom to get her ready for bed. That's when you felt the same magnetic pull with Lelouch reappear, making you follow the soldier outside.

"Suzaku, wait!"

He stopped in mid walk and turned back around, curiosity and concern flashed on his face as he cocked his head to the side, making him appear that much cuter. "Y/n? What is it? Is something wrong?"

"No … the exact opposite, in fact. I feel …" Why are you feeling this way, twice in a row? "I just want to say thank you. Not just for tonight, but for every day since we became friends. It means a lot to me." You rubbed your arm, shyly smiling. "You … mean a lot to me."

His smile lite a fire in your heart. "You mean a lot to me too. You, Lelouch, Nunnally, the student council … you've all become so important to me." He walked towards you until you were standing face to face. "You above all else."

You gaped at seeing his face start to flush red and his green eyes became glossy and … tempted. "I … I am?"

He looked a bit stunned before his face broke out into a smile. "Aw, come on. You honestly can't see why?"

What happened next took you by surprise, almost as much as Lelouch's did.

The feeling of Suzaku's lips pressed against your other cheek; once normal but now burning with heat from those soft velvety lips of his. He pulled back to give a bashful smile, scratching his cheek, "Is that enough proof for you?"

You gingerly touched your cheek, feeling the warmth beneath your fingertips, as butterflies fluttered in your stomach and your heart was racing quickly. But that's when you noticed his green eyes glow; those mesmerizing emerald gems now stuck upon your awaiting face. His eyes softened as did his smile.

Your cheeks burned as you smiled shyly at him. "I … think so."

Suzaku laughed softly before holding your hands. "Y/n, you do mean that much to me. This past month spent in school with you, sharing classes and having study sessions, even just spending time with you like that has been … wonderful." You smiled the more he talked, leaning closer as did he when you noticed his eyes looking over you to far behind you; suspicion laced in them. "It's getting late. I should head back to my place. Have a good night … " Suzaku pulled your hands up to litter gentle kisses on top of them, making you smile bashfully, " … Y/n."

You took him by surprise as you leaned up to kiss his cheek "Good night, Suzaku."

You waved good-bye as his goofy smiling face looked back at you over his shoulder as he waved back too while hurrying off, almost falling over his feet from not watching where he was going, causing you to laugh out loud at his stumble.

But unbeknownst to you but not to the brunette was that Lelouch was watching outside his bedroom window.

He watched his best friend kiss your cheek as he did earlier.

He watched as Suzaku ran off, leaving you smiling and blushing as you felt yourself floating off your feet as you walked back inside.

He did not look happy. Not one bit.

Lelouch Lamperouge Quotes from Code Geass

[married-to-google-translater]

Hiii I was wondering if you could do lelouch x sick s/o I haven't seen many x readers with these headcanons so I thought of this idea! I love reading your blog btw!

Aaaw thank you~ I hope you enjoy this

Lelouch Vi Britannia

That day you didn't come to school and Lelouch was worried.

He wasn't sure if anything really serious had happened to you.

Lelouch was afraid that someone would have found out his identity and would have done something to you.

Leading the resistance would not be a risk-free endeavor.

The school day went really restlessly.

As soon as he could he came to check on you.

He would be really relieved if it was just that you were sick.

Lelouch would take really good care of you.

He would have taken care of Nunnaly so this would not be a stranger.

Lelouch would be a surprisingly good cook.

The most important thing would be for you to be okay.

Lelouch would come after school to take care of you whenever he could.

He would also bring you homework at the same time.

Too bad Lelouch wouldn't be able to give you affection when you're sick.

However, he would be there with you.

When you are better Lelouch would give you the love you deserve <3

[shini--chan]

Hey!!! How are you?

I wanted to see this scenario...

Yandere Lelouch vi Britannia but...

Reader has giftedness (which makes them like... Almost the double of a common person's IQ (in which is 80), the main characteristic of giftedness is the intense metabolic activity of the brain (in other words, information processing occurs very quickly), also they can be good in emotional areas, and other areas that aren't exactly math or anything to do with strategy), and many gifted people are part of high IQ societies.... so... Saying about High IQ, one of it's capabilities is to solve complex problems... So that means they can escape every place and social encounters... So that means this little thing is the worst darling possible for him.

But bad things about giftedness are nonconformity, early responsibility, obstinacy, and divergent behavior, maybe overthinking (I am gifted and I'm overthinking about everything right now, don't want to give you the wrong info tho... But I am usually overthinking about high school)

He should like, if not use his Geass, try to make something without a way of escaping and try to be emotionally distant, because this gremlin of a darling maybe could try to do ANYTHING to get to escape.

Bro is going to make war with high IQ societies too because darling have high probabilities of being a member of a high IQ society 😭😭😭😭😭😭

It can be headcanons, I think... But Thank You for taking your time reading this text wall! ❤️❤️❤️

Lelouch wouldn't have that much of a challenge making them stay in place.

Yandere Lelouch vi Britannia - Sharps and Flats

Trigger warnings: kidnapping, manipulation, hostage taking, yandere themes

There are a number of ways Lelouch would triumph or such an intelligent person. After all, intelligence doesn't doesn't mean infalliablity and there would be a number of ways to turn a person's intelligence against them. One of those would be to place you in a situation where you'd be bored to tears. Without sources of stimulation, you would start overthinking, and tearing yourself and your bonds apart. Due to your intelligence, you would become bored far more quickly, and therefore then be inclined to make mistakes.

Or he could do simple, inane things with your intelligence leading you to read more into than there would be. In a similar vein, he could just have you heaped with tasks and exercises until the point where you would burn out and need him to take care of you. That being said, he could also make you overextend and then lose balance. In that moment of weakness, he would catch you hook, line and sinker. It could also be all just a distraction, to conceal his motives.

Another path he could take to conquer you, would be by using your arrogance against you. Lelouch would make it clear through subtle clues that the two of you are playing a game and then reveal something of his schemes. You'd think yourself oh so clever and pat yourself on the back for figuring it out. Only to be then caught on the backfoot when you stumble into his net. You see, while you were all smug, he'd have enacted his real plan.

Or, he would use the fact that you see yourself as above everybody else to his advantage. Seeing that you would be so inclined to write nearly everybody off as less than you, he would recruit a lot of people to his cause and move them against you. With you underestimating them and overestimating yourself, you would be unlikely to catch on to his plans and even when the steel jaws of the trap would snap shut, you would be drowning in disbelief and therefore unable to move against him.

In all your intelligence, you'd probably forget that the world is too complex for one singular person to comprehend, and that you too would have build your world view on predjuices and oversimplifications. He would also use these blindspots to his advantage, since you would be more likely to engage in cognitive disonance than adjust something so fundamental about your belief system.

Putting you in a position where you would be out of your depth would be another strategy of his. You would have had it so easy your whole life that suddenly having something being not so easy for you would make you flounder. Don't worry though, he would be there to catch you then and sooth your ruffled feathers.

Targeting the facet of companionship could also be an option. Biases suck, and it would be such a shame for you to fall victim to them. Such as being kicked out of those high intelligence societes for having non-Britannian blood. Should he have any difficulties, then he could enlist Nina to help him. Then you would only have him that would understand you and to whom you would relate. The same effect on a much more potent scale could be achieved if he organised for somebody to betray you or would fake your death.

There would be other ways to bind you to his side and make you more willing to stay with him, like blackmail or aligned goals or shared secrets. He could also bring you to a secluded place where you could very easily escape but not survive for escape and therefore be depandant on him. Emotional distance wouldn't be a requirement for him, since there would be solid lines he would never cross, and therefore no amount of pulling at his heart strings would make a difference.

Besides that, he would be aware of your intent to escape, and thus it would be easy to pre-empt any of your attempts. Especially since he would be smarter and more experienced than you - he would be in your desicion making loop long before you would be in his. Of course, he could also punish you so harshly that you would write off any attempt to flee out of fear of the consequences.

Failing all that, he could put a Geass on you to follow all explicit commands in the spirit they are intended. Or he could fiddle with your body, so that your heart would give out if you'd distance yourself from him, or that you'd be shocked into unconciousness. Holding hostages would also be an option for him.

Stalemate - Chapter 3; Queenside Expansion

"Why?" Lelouch turns to you with a small smirk, one of patience and satisfaction, showing he has waited for this for a long time. "We'll kill him, of course." 

Caught off guard, your eyes widen. Right... I don't know what I expected. 

Your gaze drifts away from his, conflicted. Even so... is that really the smart thing to do? Let alone the right thing to do. Murder is not something you can walk back from. Allowing him to live would be a liability yet offer up more choices... but killing him would benefit our goals immensely while staining both of our hands for good. 

"Do you have an issue with that?" 

"I..." you hesitate, "...well, I just thought of something." 

"Whatever you mean by that, you should say it quickly. Our time is limited." 

"Wouldn't it be a lot more convenient to keep him alive?" You follow him into the elevator. 

"How so?" He raises an eyebrow as the doors close. 

"If you ordered him to follow all of your commands, you would have the authority of a royal through him." 

"Neither of us know the extent of this power yet." Lelouch's eyes narrow. "That would be a gamble at best." 

"Aren't you a fan of those?" A small but intense silence settles into the elevator. Lelouch stares at you incredulously for a moment. Then he smirks, bursting into a short laughter. 

"Very well. I can see the potential in that idea. I'll need to adjust a few of my future plans, but I can make this work. Right... with this, I could arrange an endless supply of knightmares..." Lelouch trails off into his thoughts until the elevator comes to a halt. 

The prince glances up in confusion at first, then recoils in terror. "No... this isn't possible! How did you get past my defenses?!" 

"Oh, it wasn't an issue at all, your highness. All they needed was a bit of persuasion." 

"You..!" Clovis cuts himself off, sucking in a harsh breath. "...Very well, you've bested me. What is it that you want from me?" 

"How about you start by ordering a ceasefire?" Lelouch remains in the shadows with you as the royal reluctantly calls for the battle to end. As the troops are shown to retreat on his holographic map, he turns back to Lelouch. 

"Are you satisfied?" 

"Very. Well done." 

Clovis questions Lelouch's next steps with sarcasm dripping from his tone. Lelouch smiles, walking closer and pulling his helmet off. His face basks in the dim light of the room. The older prince's face twists in pure shock as his brother kneels before him in taunt. Soon after, Lelouch shifts his position again and goes back to pointing a gun at him. 

"I'm overjoyed, Lelouch! What a blessing to have you back! We should depart for homeland immediately-" 

"So you can use me as a tool of diplomacy again? It seems you've forgotten why we were used as tools in the first place." 

Lelouch recounts his mother's murder, her status as the strongest knight, and her origins as a commoner. He orders the prince to reveal the truth, but all he says is that the second prince and princess know. After Lelouch's eye ceases to glow, Clovis begs for him to believe in his innocence, which he does. Even so, Lelouch's gun remains pointed right at the royal's head as he steps forward. 

"Please, you can't! We may have different mothers but you and I are still blood!" 

"You can't change the world without getting your hands dirty." As Lelouch stops in front of the prince, your eyes dart to him. Your heart clenches and you frown, panic seeping to your head.

Bearing witness to more death than you already had, listening to the last words, final pleas of someone- uncertainty seeps into your veins, you do not know if your psyche can handle that. Fearing Lelouch's reassurance earlier was a lie, you shut your eyes. Well, if it is necessary, there is nothing you can do. He has played a part in all of this too, no matter how much he pleads, you remind yourself. 

The silence hangs in the air like a noose around a criminal's neck. Knot yet to be tied, the guilty one awaiting judgement. Even so, the first stone is never thrown. Lelouch's calm, enigmatic smile persists as he lowers the gun, "...which I would have gladly done, if my partner had not pleaded your case for you, how lucky." 

The prince stops quivering, eyes wide, in relief this time. His grateful stare darts to your shadow-shrouded form for a second before he crumbles. Tears of horror slide down his cheeks and he whispers breathless 'thank you's, claiming Lelouch will not regret this. A frown falls onto your lips; this is likely the first time the royal has feared in such a way, for his own life. 

"You get to live under one condition: you are to serve me with utmost and unwavering loyalty, until the day that you die!" Lelouch exclaims, eye burning magenta again. "Lelouch vi Britannia commands you, obey me!" 

Clovis drops to his knees out of sheer fear. Is it entirely from the hypnosis or cowardice, you do not know. Lelouch reiterates that he can get the prince killed at any moment he wishes to. He will know if the royal as much as thinks of betrayal. The prideful man's terrified shudders serve as confirmation of his surrender, and you leave with Lelouch to ensure your alibis. 

Your disguises get burned in the nearest incinerator you can find, easily disposed of. On the walk to the school dormitory, a strange feeling washes over you. The trees remain the same, swaying in the soft wind. Streets are still filled with normal people going on about their daily lives, gossiping and complaining on the way. Markets stay open, birds fly across the blue sky, newspapers tell the same old stories- everything looks the same, in spite of your world having been flipped inside out and thrown upside down. 

"It's as if nothing happened. We may as well be walking back from an arcade or something," you hum in contained amusement. 

"Yet, even so, everything has changed," Lelouch responds. A breeze of wind flutters the evergreen leaves of the trees crowning the sidewalk. Traffic calm, hues of gold and maroon seeping into the royal blue sky, the world itself shifts. As the day falls to an inevitable end, a new era dawns. Perhaps twilight will linger for a while longer, but now you have no doubt; this revolution, pursuit of freedom- this is what you were made for. 

The following day seemed rather mundane and boring. Normal tasks like figuring out expenses of clubs and juggling finances should have been a piece of cake compared to gunshots and getting caught in crossfire of an army and a rebel group. However, after a night slept so poorly, you almost missed yesterday. 

Falling asleep on the job was not an option though, Milly made sure of that with her curled up magazine. "Wake up Lelouch! I know you're asleep, your hand stopped moving!" 

"Well, you don't have to beat me up over it, do you?" 

"Serves you right for ditching me like that!" Rivals grinned. 

"We ditched you to help car crash victims..." you muttered, tired eyes scanning documents. 

"Yeah, sorry but what was up with you yesterday?" Shirley asked. 

"That's enough, you guys! Let's not get sidetracked here," Milly cut in. "If we don't come up with a fix for the club activity budget now, there won't be any money left at all!" 

You lost the conversation in the screwed up distributions of school funds. A bitterness seeps through you as you realize how many stupider clubs than yours have a much higher funding. Milly cuts through your thoughts with an abrupt shout. "GUTS!!!" 

"You trying that guts spell again?" 

"Yep, I want you people to start putting your all into this!" 

You scratch the side of your face, trying not to faceplant into the table. "Already am... sleep deprivation's getting to me though..." 

"I don't think your 'magic' is going to do a whole lot," Lelouch says. 

"Actually, it's got me going madame president!" Shirley smiles. 

"A sound body leads to a sound mind, I see." 

Shirley places a hand over her bicep with a proud grin. "Yeah, I train hard at the-" 

"That's not what I meant. You're a ten." Shirley pauses at Milly's words. "From what I've seen in the girl's bathroom anyway, you've been filling out in all the right places, huh?" 

Shirley shrieks defensively as Rivalz tries to check if the president's words are true. You lift your gaze, now filled with judgement, from the complicated paperwork. "You know, I love talking about titties as much as the next person, but this is rather inappropriate of you, ma'am." 

"When is it an appropriate time to talk about that?!" Shirley screeches with a face red from embarrassment and anger. 

"February, probably, since it's breast-" 

"I think (Name)'s right..." Nina whispers. 

"About titties being a great topic? I totally agree-" Rivalz gets cut off. 

"N-no! Not at all, those aren't on my mind, ever!" Nina panics. "I just... think we should focus on getting this done... please." 

"Yeah... from the looks of it, this'll take a while. You know, you're real lucky I can't be bothered to extort money out of you in exchange for my help right now." 

"Oh, your generosity knows no bounds, (Name)!" Milly teases. 

After far too much time spent dwelling on them, the club activity budget is finally fixed. Too worn out from trying to sneak more funds to the drama club under Milly's watchful gaze, you flop down next to Shirley. Socializing could wait, for now you wanted someone quiet, someone who generally focused on studying. However, in spite of your clever pick of seat, fate seemed to have it in the cards for you to speak to someone today. 

"Why is he staring at her like that..?" Shirley mutters with her face halfway shoved into a book. 

"Hm... what do you mean?" You place your book down. 

"That red-haired girl, why has Lulu taken such an interest in her?" 

Craning your head, your mouth parts as the mentioned girl comes into view. You look away quick to keep your composure; your new classmate is a terrorist, there is totally nothing shocking about that. Briefly meeting eyes with Lelouch, all you need is a meaningful blink to know your thoughts are the same. 

Leaning your head onto your palm, you smirk to hide your shock. "Heh, well, she is real pretty. No wonder he's staring!" 

"You don't think... he would be-" 

"Shirley, you know he just likes the mystery around her. Give it a few days for him to figure her out and he'll go right back to his normal,  closed off self." You turn nonchalantly back to your textbook. 

"I guess you're right... I just haven't seen him stare at anyone like that before." She reluctantly follows your example. 

You chuckle. "Honestly, I think you should just get it over with. Either you win or he'll let you down gently." 

"The- there's no way I could do that," Shirley whispers harshly, "I don't wanna risk ruining our friendship! We've known each other for way too long." 

"He's pretty smart though." You sigh. "Who's to say he doesn't already know?" 

"No way!" Shirley's voice bursts into a higher volume. She shrinks immediately after and denies being in any distress when asked. 

After your classes have ended for the day, you pass through an empty hallway, humming a quiet melody. In spite of your casual demeanor, calm smile resembling the first rays of spring sunlight, your mind trembles under thoughts like dark clouds before a storm. 

"(Name)!" Lelouch appears from behind a corner and grabs your shoulders. 

Shoved into a wall out of nowhere, you try to shake off the confusion and shock. "Huh- what's wrong?" 

"My power doesn't work twice on the same person!" 

"What? How'd you find out? How big of a mess-" 

"Oh, it's not today that's the problem." Lelouch hisses out quietly, "It's that guy you spared!" 

"Huh? Oh... oh!" You slam a hand over your mouth. Recalling the events with the prince, the revelation comes to you. Lelouch used his command to make Clovis unable to lie to him. Useful as it was, that means the order he gave later for the royal to serve him was void. 

"That mess with him is your fault, so you'll fix it. I have my hands full with that Kallen girl." 

"Right." You grimace. "Well, my classes are over, so I'll get going. Can you force him to let me in or will need to do that on my own?" 

He scoffs, backing away from the wall. "Of course I can. All you need to do is follow my instructions. This is all a nuisance, but one I'll have no trouble handling. Just another roadblock, dammit." 

Leaving Lelouch to his muttering and thoughts, you leave for the prince's quarters. As he had said, all you needed to do to get past the guards and security was listen to him. In mere minutes, you arrived at the door to the prince's personal chambers. One knock was all it took to get him to nearly smash the door into your face. His bloodshot eyes reflected fear, tremors rushing across his quivering lips. 

"Please, do come in." He forces a polite smile on his twitching face. You follow his plea and step him, letting him close the perfectly painted, mahogany wood door. 

Before a single word leaves your parted lips, he falls to his knees. Not even giving your shock the time to set in, he presses frantic kisses to your shoes. "Uh... what exactly are you doing right now?" 

"You... you are the reason I am alive, no? You convinced my bloodthirsty, traitor of a little brother to spare me." He stops his kisses, turning to look into your eyes. "Whether I like it or not, I am indebted to you." 

Recovering from the surprise, you take a calm step away from the man. "Hm, while your compliance is appreciated, there's not much you can accomplish by buttering me up." 

"Right, right, of course, naturally..." he trails off, hesitating before standing up. "Well, what is it that you require of me, savior?" 

"I am here to ensure your loyalty, that's all." 

"Ah, that- that's hardly necessary! I swore that in exchange for my life, I would serve my dear brother with utmost and unwavering loyalty. See, I even remember word for word what he said! That... loyalty extends to you, of course as well, you haven't had a change of heart, have you?" His voice trembles, leaking with desperation. 

"You really seem to value your own skin, huh." You coldly point out the obvious. 

"It is only natural, my savior. No one wants to die. So, although I am deeply unsatisfied by my current... circumstances, I don't mind them as long as I get to survive." 

"...I suppose so." Your response is a mumble as you take an absentminded step further into the room. This is likely the most pathetic, honorless man you have ever encountered in your entire life. Royals preach devotion and unyielding loyalty but of course, this does not apply when their own flesh is on the line. When blood spurts from the necks of the upper class beneath the blade of a guillotine, only those cunning ones who can convince the common folk of their own purity survive. 

"Ah, perfect, so we can agree on something." He exhales with delighted relief, which melts into a saccharine smile. You resist the urge to raise a mocking eyebrow as he equips a mask of charisma and allure. He may not know you, but you remain insulted he would think you of all people would ever fall for that. 

"You are far more sensible than my younger brother. I cannot understand why you would choose to work under such a brute." He steps closer, confidence growing as you allow him to cradle your face. The prince remains blissfully unaware of your apathy, too oblivious to pick up on the subtle, annoyed twitches of your jaw. 

"Someone of your nature deserves far more than a life of such pointless violence. Surely all of this bloodshed is something you disagree with, is it not?" 

"If fighting with the aid of other elements fails, fire against fire is the only option." 

"It doesn't have to be. We could be civil about this." His smile morphs into one of feigned sympathy. "My younger brother is merely bitter about the loss of his inheritance, something caused by his own foolishness. He doesn't care about the people, but you on the other hand-" 

"Are you done yet?" Boredom seeps through your voice. He freezes in shock as you remove his hand from your face. "You sure seem to enjoy hearing your own voice. Making assumptions, thinking you can trick me with that talk, but..." 

"Let me just make one thing very clear to you." Grabbing firmly onto the hair on the back of his head, you tug him closer. "You cannot convince me to turn against him. Don't bother trying." 

A tense silence looms in the air. Neither one of you makes a move. It is as if the world has come to a stop, the slightest shift like a clash of a blade on a battlefield. Even so, his sword has long ago flown out of his grasp, yours right at his throat. However, the ice gets shattered, time moves again with swift footsteps in the hallway. 

Both of your eyes widen in shock as the door swings open. There is no time to move, flinch, even to breathe as a soldier walks in. It is an older man of a decent rank and even a medal or two hanging from his uniform. That high rank is why he had the nerve to barge into a royal's private chambers in the first place, you presume. Even so, the man stumbles upon seeing the two of you in such close proximity. 

"Par-pardon me for rushing in, your highness! Valuable information arrived from homeland mere minutes ago. Since you are the one in charge of the military in this part of the empire, I figured I should inform you of it as soon as possible!" 

"Oh, I certainly am intrigued by those reports, but for now I'll have to ask for you to leave. You see, I was in the midst of a rather... private conversation with my betrothed." He pulls you to his chest, a faint smirk on his lips. 

"You-! You... I..." At first you snap at him in pure wrath, but allow your tone to soften. Understanding what he is getting at, you avert your gaze and mellow out your body language. "Please, your highness, I told you I wished to proceed slowly..." 

"Ah, but my love, when you've bewitched me so, how could I ever hope to contain myself?" 

"You flatter me far too much, dearly beloved... I apologize, all this anticipation, and your honesty... is simply overwhelming." Your eyes meet with his, both of your expressions perfect. His gaze is pristine, lips curved just right to seem enchanted, a well-trained facade. Yours are parted in practiced awe, irises sparkling, a mask carved from need. From different upbringings, artform learned for different reasons, you begin a dance of deceit, a twisted performance of love starring a captor and a prisoner, lines of who is whom blending in the peculiar circumstances. 

The officer clears his throat. Apologizing for the interruption, he continues with a bow, "My deepest apologies, your highness. If it is your desire to be left alone with your betrothed, I shall gather my bearings at once. A thousand congratulations on your engagement, I wish for your love to flourish as beautifully as this holy empire." 

As soon as he leaves, you turn to the prince with a scowl. His smile remains a practiced one, one of false apology. You resist the urge to outright growl in frustration, this is going to be a pain to explain to Lelouch.

I’m going to make a masterlist of my fanfictons, art, and head canons in a folder. It’ll be edited into my pinned post just incase anyone is curious but it might not be done until tomorrow. (EST time)

I’m still taking questions and requests for art but I’m currently writing a Kabuto x reader right now so I’m holding off on taking further x reader requests.

If you ever want to keep updated for when they open back up you can always check my pinned post and it should say.

Thank you for interacting with my content, It means a lot to me.

(Please read more down here too.)

⬇️

I am deciding to post a combination of Naruto and Code Geass content because I’ve currently developed a hyperfixation on Code Geass and I still very much like Naruto.

With that being said, I don’t just take Naruto requests. If you’re a Code Geass fan (or a fan of Lloyd) then feel free to ask for more of that content.

Thank you for reading and I will post later.
