Uncontrollable Rolo

I skipped last month's Lost Stories update because it was just a faithful adaptation of Turns 13 & 14... and yeah, Shirley is no longer alive. Pilotsuit!Rolo can't be obtained yet either (which I honestly prefer, because I doubt many users would be willing to pull for him right now), but there might be a plan to release him someday, as his pilot suit outfit isn't available at the costumes shop. That is to say, some outfits are not released as a separate unit with its own specific type/parameters/lines/etc., but rather as a swappable skin. In Rolo's case, his Akito outfit (called "Neblos" by the game itself) is just a re-skin for either regular or sailor Rolo:

Then again, by this point of the story Vincent is damaged beyond repair, so unless pilotsuit!Rolo is added during some special or flashback event, he might also just not be added at all, not even as a re-skin. Anyways, I recorded a video because this month's Turns 15 & 16 did have a few new Rolo scenes compared to the anime, though I can't exactly say they paint him in a good light...

Truth be told, from Turn 13 to Turn 18 the anime did very little to make Rolo likeable. He's all sweet at the beginning of Turn 13 and pitiable at the end of Turn 18 when Lelouch yells at him, but everything else in between is just him murdering Shirley, murdering children and then planning to murder Nunnally. And now Lost Stories added "almost murdering Benio and Savitri" to that list.

During the first scene, Rolo's worried that Brother has disappeared. When Kinoshita says they can't find Doumeki (Mario/Maya's alias) either, Rolo's response is "Worry about Doumeki later. He was probably killed by that Golden Decoration anyway" ("Golden Decoration" is the nickname for the KMF used by Carly, an evil lady from the game). Kinoshita also suggests first verifying the damages suffered, but Rolo irritatedly tells him that finding Zero is the priority. No wonder Kinoshita's only face during the entire video is "😟". Next, there's a small scene after Lelouch has returned from the Sword of Akasha. In the anime, too, Lelouch told C.C. that he had called Rolo, and now we see Lelouch and Rolo interact: Rolo: Brother! Lelouch: You're here, Rolo. Rolo: I've been looking for you the whole time! And I searched here so many times as well... Lelouch: I'll explain it later. We will retreat. Rolo: Eh? But... Lelouch: V.V. has been defeated. He's gone. Rolo: That can't... I mean, V.V. is immortal... Lelouch: Still, I defeated him. The Emperor too, most likely... More importantly, how is the progress on the bomb installation I requested? Rolo: Ah, yeah... I think they'll be ready soon... Kinoshita (over the communicator): Kinoshita here. We have finished placing the bombs at the designated locations. Lelouch (Zero voice, over the communicator): Well done. Us Black Knights will return to Hourai Island. To all units, head back to the airship. Kinoshita (over the communicator): Zero? R-roger. Lelouch: You too, Rolo. I'll take care of the rest. Rolo: Y-yeah. Okay. Lelouch then says to himself that he was at least able to defeat V.V., who gave Rolo his Geass, and the Emperor, who manipulated Shirley's memories. He crushes the Geass Order once and for all. Afterwards, inside Zero's room at the Ikaruga: Lelouch: What? You can't find Doumeki? Why didn't you tell me sooner? Rolo: I couldn't. I couldn't contact you, and I had to take command of the scene... Lelouch: Tch, what's done is done. Then begin the search immediately... Rolo: It's not possible, Brother. My airframe isn't in working condition, and we can't let other people get near the Order. Lelouch: Then we should just use Kinoshita or Benio and the others. There's no doubt that the one who took him [Mario] away was the Golden Decoration. We must follow its trail. Rolo: Brother, is that what you want? This isn't the moment to be fixated on that guy, is it? After destroying the Geass Order, in order to create a place for us, we have no choice but to strike at Britannia's homeland. You promised, didn't you? That you would give me a place to belong... Lelouch: ... Very well. I want to collect myself and think about the next move. Could you leave for a while? Rolo: ... Yeah. Alright. But Brother, don't forget it, okay. Our promise... Lelouch: I know.

I suppose it would be easier to feel sorry for Rolo if he said "I just want to be happy with you" instead of "don't forget our promise", but the fact that Lelouch made a promise *is* the only argument Rolo has, so he needs to use it. Not only that, but Rolo isn't the type to open up about his emotional vulnerabilities in front of others. He has Arabesque, BokuTori, Turn 19.02, the regret message and other stuff where he expresses his emotions in such a heartfelt manner, but then he doesn't actually ever directly talk to Lelouch like that, you know what I mean? I wish we got more of that "contemplative Rolo" here, even if it's through some scenes where he's alone, because just watching the anime you probably get the impression that Rolo is much colder and unable to understand the world around him than he actually is.

Before I continue with the video, here are some screenshots of Lelouch talking about the only people who know his identity:

Lelouch: Among the people who know Zero's true identity only Jeremiah and Sayoko remain. And then, there's Rolo… (However, Rolo's uncontrollability is a double-edged sword. There's what happened with Shirley, too. I must be careful with how I handle him...) I find it funny that there isn't a more Japanese word to say "uncontrollability". アンコントローラブルさ, really? Sasuga Britannian prince... To continue with the video, next comes a longer version of the scene where Rolo benevolently spares Asahina's life. Yes, the scene where Asahina doesn't agree that "the value of a member of the Black Knights is measured by how much Zero trusts them". Now Benio is part of that moment too, and she wants to speak with Zero (about the mission where they massacred the Geass Order). Rolo: You are... Benio Akagi, huh. Weren't you listening right now? What matters is how much Zero trusts you. There's no way Zero would speak with someone like you. Benio: But...! Rolo: You better stop... Asahina: Hm. If you're speaking on behalf of Zero, then so be it. However, don't forget that because of people like you, Zero's popularity is declining. Let's go, you two. Kinoshita: Y-Yes. Come on, you too, Akagi... Benio: Yes... Rolo: Hm. (Zero's popularity, he says? Brother only needs me. I'm the only one... At any rate, that Benio Akagi might let out the secret. I should deal with her as soon as possible...) Rolo making friends! Him going all paranoiacally possessive when Nunnally is brought up is one thing, but now this... I'm not sure if Turn 19 is going to be enough for Lost Stories players to "forgive" him? The final part of the video is almost the same as the manga's here, so I won't translate it again. Except for these crazy lines: Rolo: Why do you question Zero? What Brother decides is absolute. He promised that he would create a place for me. That's why it was necessary to destroy the Order. When Brother decides it, it's absolute. Because it leads to my future with him. So there's no need for anyone who has doubts or doesn't listen to what they are told. He doesn't need them. Apart from me, Brother needs no one. In his defense, it's not like Rolo's brain works like that all the time. He was able to calmly give Lelouch actual, convincing reasons why it was better for him to forget Nunnally and stay with Rolo instead during Turn 7. Rolo really must be panicking during this scene with Benio to reach such levels of irrationality (also, I get the impression that "that's why it was necessary to destroy the Order" isn't an answer to Benio's question, but rather something he keeps telling himself because having to destroy his previous home did affect him a little?). I think a part of him recognizes that he's disobeying orders himself by deciding to eliminate Black Knights members without Lelouch's permission, and that's why he sounds so delusional? Unlike me, who's totally not delusionally justifying the actions of this assassin with an untraceable body count.

Happy Father's Day, Jango || Myles & Jango

Gift for @galaccias

Their little one gets stronger every day. Just looking at him, Myles' chest swells with pride. Baby Boba seems to like it, as his tiny fists cling to the fabric of Myles' pilotsuit while his chubby, slightly flushed face nuzzles into the warmth of his father's chest, soothed by Myles' heartbeat despite the fact that it's not exactly steady, but rushed, right now.

After all, they've never been allowed to take Boba to their private quarters. They aren't allowed to take Boba to their private quarters, as the boy isn't supposed to even leave the room his pod is in. But Myles doesn't care what those long necks have to say, he didn't care what they had to say back when they insisted that Boba wouldn't make it, and he definitely doesn't care now as he sneaks through the halls with the baby wrapped in a blanket and tucked between his loosened beskar chest plate and his chest.

After all, there is no other place Boba should be at on Father's day than with them.

The door to their quarters slides open and Myles grins as soon as he spots his beloved. "I got you something," he says in a playful tone as he stepped in. "I know we didn't make any plans for today, but I think you'll agree that we should spend Father's day with the boy that gave us the honor, no?"

The door closed and locked behind him and only then did Myles loosen his chest plate fully, taking it off to reveal the stolen baby– then again, did it count as theft if it was their baby?

The sound of the piece of armor hitting the ground made Boba whine, but Myles was quick to soothe him as he stepped closer to Jango.

"Look, Bob'ika," he cooed softly. "Now your grumpier but more handsome Buir is here to celebrate too."

I'm back with another piece. This time - D1 Devastator with Hurricane Honey from Cutie Honey as a special guest. Now I know ppl wouldn't know much about this OVA or anything to do with it but after diving into this mysterious OVA, it seems that Takara has something to do with this OVA and for some reason, some elements of this OVA shares the same concept as Diaclone toyline, namely the Car Robots section. We got alien bugs fighting car robots in another dimension if you go past 300 km/h which is something exceeding that of Back to the Future's 88 mph and breaking that cliche'. I wonder if this OVA was meant to be a reboot of Diaclone at some point considering Takara's hand in this but since not one official stepped up, we'll never know but until then..here's this fun little thing I've been conjuring for years till I finished it recently and you can see me struggling with the lineart considering these designs for the girl's pilot suits were meant for OVA standards. I mean, YEESH!! The detail and precision. The character designer was quite one of those things that stand out though he did make a hentai comic called Gorgon which is a fun time. It's like RPG fantasy but with 3 bumbling sisters. Hilarity ensues. Character designer's name is Choji Maboroshi whom he's a part of a doujin clique at one point. Check his stuff out.

“  just let me sleep for five more minutes.  ” (poe believes he's talking to jacen instead xD)

The light falling into the sickbay was blue and filled the dark tiled walls like warm oceanwater of a trophic sea. On the base it was quiet this morning, the wind had howled in the night but in the early morninghours it had tamed and soothed until the howling was now nothing but a quiet snarl that scratched almost gently around the buildings walls with paws that had lost its claws. It was this noise that woke Ziv up, who had curled up beside Poe on the sickbay-gourney with him safe and secure under the blankets she had tucked him in as if he was a small child, and her on the farest edge ofthe bed, curled up and small. After he had been brought in Ziv had spend more than half the night by his bedside, mending from plasma burned flesh, cutting out the parts were durasteel and pieces of his own pilotsuit had molten into his skin, sewing shut cuts and injuries before putting him in a deep sleep. A Bacta Tank would have been better, she had thought that night when she had sat by the edge of the bed, watching him sleep to make sure he was still breathing. A Bacta Tank would have been better, she thought now as she listened into the quietness of the morning for the mans calm breathing that, when she for a second could nto find it, made her almost jump up in utter panic. Yet she did found his breathing, calm and soft and relaxed, and the panic rushed down from her stomach into her feet and off her like a too heavy coat.

The Tynnans ears perked up by the noises and she stretched herself as if she was a Loth-kitten before leaning on her elbow and carefully sitting up to not wake her patient. It was then when she was about to slide off the gourney when she suddenly felt a movement behind making the Tynnan promptly bristle her fur like from electricity in sudden lertness- was he alright? Did she moved to fast and hurt him? Did the Painkiller wore of and was he in pain? “  just let me sleep for five more minutes.  ”, Poes voice was nothing but a sleep-drunken grunt, almost drowning in the beeping of medical equipment around them yet it was loud enough to make Ziv sigh in relief and she leaned forward to gently pinch the mans nose: "Goodness kriffing gracious, that painkiller did you kriffing hard, huh?" Turning a little the Tynnan knelt on the edge of the bed to have a better look at the other and his condition, noting the bandages she would need to change, noting the effect of the painkillers, noting Poes utter exhaustion, but also noting that he was smelling fresh and clear without a single flicker of the sour scent of infection and that most burns had been turned by the bacta into nothing but red marks that almost looked as harmless as paint. Letting go of a long breath she did no knew she had been holding Ziv reached out and wiped softly a few curls out of Poes forehead, happly noticing that the fever was gone: "If you try to kiss me, i will kriffing bite you, just saying. How are you feeling today, pup?"
