Pre-series timeline question

[otakukeith.livejournal.com]

I'm starting an AU fanfic in which Lelouch dies before the start of the series, and I'm trying to figure out the sequence of events with respect to Lelouch, Suzaku and Nunnally between the beginning of the Britannian invasion and their parting.

It seems from some of the dialogue that Suzaku killed his father before parting with the other two, because he says something like "I wanted to tell Lelouch..." over an image of the two sitting together before they parted. What isn't clear is how this fits with the timeline: did they make it to a Japanese military base where Suzaku killed Genbu, then they went their separate ways? If anyone knows of supplementary information, e.g. from the tie-in novels, that can shed any light on this, it'd be much appreciated.

(For the curious, the fanfic will be titled Code Geass: Nunnally of the Liberation and feature Nunnally getting a Geass after living with the Sumeragi family for 7 years, Nunnally/Suzaku, and Nina falling for a different person after the hoteljacking.)

That's interesting, thanks for letting me know! I'll keep it in mind, although a source with spoilers is not necessarily a source who knows all the correct answers, if you know what I mean? The kid clothes/adult clothes thing is a nice symbolic stroke, but I can totally rationalize it either way, I have noooo special attachment to the theory. It just makes the most sense this way, IMHO. XD

You're welcome! \o/ Yeah, I know what you mean, but I think the reason this one caught my attention was because it came from a supposedly reliable source. But yeah, supposedly 8D; And I can't find it again anyway so bleh xD;
