Suzaku/Lelouch Fanart

[selenityshiroi.livejournal.com]

Okay, why is there no Suzaku/Lelouch fandom yet?

Come on! There's plenty of subtext to work with, people!

Therefore, I've made my own fanart. It isn't romantic but it's Suzaku and Lelouch together, which is a start! It is also heavily based off of the reference images, because I'm not familiar enough with the art to experiment too much.



It's quite small because this is just the lineart. I plan on colouring the real one later.

can I ever write a non-ranty reply to anything

As far as I know, the Japanese fans started shipping SuzaLulu (mostly) and LuluSuza (less commonly) before the show even airs. XD;;;

I can't say I'm a fan of the pairing, but I'm surprised about the limited smut on the webz for the series. The Eye of Geass should've inspired half a dozen darkfics/comics by now (yes, Lulu doesn't seem to care about sex that much, and if there's someone he won't Geass, it's probably Suzaku. But since when did Japanese fen care about those technicalities?) but so far there's none. Characterization, though, I think there's already enough materials to write a pretty convincing OS!Suzaku/Lelouch. I still can't see Lelouch thinking of Suzaku as anything other than his only real friend in the world, but Suzaku had done a number of...signs that could mean he considers Lelouch as something more than a friend. All those weird eye glitters when Lelouch shows he cares/remembers a little detail, the way his voice sort of shakes when asking Lulu to be strangers with him, the reason he piloted the Lancelot, how he put that gas mask on Lulu---and sure enough, final nail in the coffin from fan perspective---WHOSE kiss did he want when chasing that cat?

On the picture itself : I like it. It's very nice---Lulu's eye looks a bit weird--I think the glitter size is a tad to large---but they look very much themselves. And the line is very clean, the proportions done very nicely. Good work! *thumbs*

XD;; I was one of them. It's just that Lulu looks so much like X's Kamui and I like him uke, so I started liking SuzaLulu. Didn't know evil!Lulu has seme traits, though.

Maybe it's still early for fics?

And there's nothing wrong with that. ^^ If you ask me, Lulu has more uke percentage at heart, though mixed with all his messed up head he comes out somewhere in the middle. XD

As of Episode 5, yes, I think it's too early. XD I did write just a simple genfic and there's 'insufficient information!' all round. Episode 6, though, does give you enough info about how they all interact, if you feel inclined to write. Fics have been written on less, I'm sure. (FMA, anyone? Of course, Geass is much more tightly written than FMA, but still)

Thank you very much for the detailed critique! I'll see what the glitter size looks like when I colour it, maybe it DOES need to be adjusted!

Ironically, I see Lelouch more likely to be interested in Suzaku than the other way round! Mostly because Suzaku is the only person, other than Nanaly, who he has show any deep emotional reaction too. He's had a few instances of shock or surprise but most of the time he's been indifferent to things. In comparison, virtually every scene shown with Suzaku, or about Suzaku, has show a great emotional reaction from Lelouch.

But we'll see how things go! XD

I actually agree on that front. XD Lelouch latches on to Suzaku so bad it's obvious. The reasons and effects, though, is probably something we disagree on.

And we'll have great fun seeing how they do. :D!

p.s. is it sad that I don't ship Suzaku/Lulu and nor do I actually like Suzaku that much (though he's got points lately), I still have more ideas for SuzaLulu fluff than my own ship? ._.

Aww, don't worry...I'm sure that with a little more inspiration from the series you will get ideas for your ship (or like Suzaku enough to join the dark side!).
