Spoilars for turn 19.
Hi guys. I know, I know, don't worry, I'll shut up in liek, two sex. I just wanted to say a few things about this weeks episode.
So I was sitting in the corner of despair, my legs neatly tucked up against my body, and my chin resting ruefully my knees. Thoughts of suicide ran rampant in my meloncholic throughts. Then suddenly, the salty stream of never ending tears ceased for a split second. I bobbed my head in the air, my eyes widening, green iries clashing strongly with the red that was apparent in the whites, and parted my dry lips to speak, easing my frozen tongue into motion. "What the hell?" I light grimace formed on my tear streaked face.
Well, I found Lelouch's behavior in this turn strange. Why do I say this? Well, think about it.
Lulu haet Rolo.
You're all, "Sooooo?"
So why wasn't he strangling Rolo to death when he stopped him from committing suicide?
I mean, if I was Lelouch (already hating on Rolo and stuff) I would be pissed. Lelouch had no heart for him. He hated him more than everyone besides his father, because he's that little son of a bitch that replaced Nunnally and killed Shirley. Why was he all, "No Rolo, cut it out! Stop using your Geass! DDDDD:>"
It makes no sense.
"Because Nii-san is a liar..."
Why wasn't Lelouch all, "NO YOU MOTHERFUCKER, I HATE YOUR CARAMEL GUTS. >:D"
Didn't he feel that way since turn two?
What took place in Lelouch's heart that could make him kind to the person he hated most? He even buried Rolo. That's like... huge. It takes time, effot (especially for Lelouch, that pansy) and love for the person who died to do something like that. Why did he do such a thing for him? Our lovely, yandere, brothercon shota with feminine thighs. Why?
And why did Lelouch seem to be not-so-psycho over Nunnally? I throught he was going to turn to an unredeemable demon king state -- every single thing he had is gone --, and in the back of your mind, so did you. Geez, he was more upset over Shirley.
Really, I'm a HUUUGEEEE Rolo fag, and it delighted me through the streaming tears that Lelouch would show such love for him. But he didn't have one goddamn motive to. What's up? Has his insanity driven him to a new level? Did he finally see how it was through Rolo's eyes? That desperate need?
Either way, I'm still happy that he showed compassion and forgivness. Rolo, my baby, rest in peace. Thanks Sunrise for letting the Rolo haters down. C:
Now to massacre Sunrise Studios, because no matter what, Rolo's death does not sit well with me at all.
K, Stfu'ing.

In that turn, everyone is abandoning Lelouch/Zero and worst of all he's lost Nunnally, the person most important to him. Most likely seeing no point to continue on living, he accepts death, but Rolo swoops in and 'saevs teh dey'. I think Lelouch gains a considerable amount of respect for him since he's the only person who stayed by his side no matter what and sacrificed his own life for him.
tl;dr HE WAS AMAZED BY ROLO'S UNCONDITIONAL LOVE WHEN EVERYONE ELSE WAS AN ASSHAT AND DITCHED HIM
But, I could be toooootally wrong, but whatever x]

"Rolo, what a weird guy,. He believed and followed me till the end." <-and some other stuff i can't remember, but he is talking about him in the extended preview.
I think he gained a bit of respect for him in the end.

EDIT: Let's not forget that even after he thought Suzaku betrayed him, he still trusted Suzaku the most.
I wasn't a big fan of Rolo, and I admit that him killing Shirley was cowardly. But for someone who was born as a killer, further trained and programmed to be a killer, we can't really blame him for thinking of murder each and everytime he feels threatened (or if he feels Lulu is threatened). Programmed beings usually go autopilot when facing threats. I bet Rolo didn't even know what to properly do to get people to shut up, thinking that they would only shut up when they die.
Getting back on the topic of Lelouch and his change of heart. I'm sticking to the thought that he realised that Rolo, even if he did kill Shirley who was important to him, was actually just a kid who feared too much and trusted too much just like Lulu himself was. He recognised that desperation in Rolo's actions as similar to his own. That, or I'm giving Lulu too much credits.
I've been reading too many criminal psychology books...(no subject)

So I guess Lelouch wanted to do something good to Rolo, to repay him for the good things he did? Like... for once.
I'm probably wrong. >.>

Situations where the other parties genuinely tries to help Lelouch unconditionally tends to break down his barriers and he ends up giving second chances (or in the case of Suzaku 3 chances). That is way in Rolo's final moments Lelouch gave him a little white lie (probably out of debt and pity) so he could die contently.
Lelouch did go completely psycho over Nunnally. Remember that he was ranting to Todou and company to go find Nunnally and to hell with anyone else. Saying stuff like that doesn't really present high moral to his army. -_- And then right after that his eyes became completely dead. I find that even more devastating reaction from him. At least with Shirley he had rage going for him. And even though it was the wrong way for him to go about it he was still had willpower and was moving forward. With Nunnally he ended up completely devastated and was just sitting around doing nothing cause he had lost all of his willpower to fight since Nunnally was practically 80% of why he fought.
And we all know that what Lelouch hates is not being about to move forward and just standing still being unable to change anything is like a slow death to him.

I mean, as I posted before somewhere, someone who's proven to be so scared of getting discarded shouldn't be able to convince himself that his brother is lying so easily, right? If we hadn't had spoilers of what was going to happen next, I'd have thought that Rolo's reaction to Lulu telling him that he always hated him would be deciding to go back to his life doing missions. The only thing that kept him wanting to fight for his new happy life was the hope that Lelouch gave him by treating him as a brother. If suddenly he's told all of that was a lie (AND IN SUCH A CRUEL WAY TOO ;____;), that indeed, he's never been loved after all... Well, I'd thought then he'd definitely lose all the hope for a normal and happy life and that now he would truly believe that the only possible kind of life for him is that emotionless one, simply following orders and not caring about anyone anymore.
Kallen too needed more shock time after Zero told her he had been using all of them all along >>. So yeah, I think the events in this episode should have been separated into two episodes. Too much happens without enough explaining of what is going on through the characters' minds. ESPECIALLY ROLO CAUSE THIS WAS SUPOSSED TO BE HIS EPISODE HE DIDN'T APPEAR ENOUGH.
ALSO HIS LOCKET. HIS. LOCKET. THROWN TO THE FLOOR. HOWDIDHENOTHAVETHEHEARTATTACKRIGHTTHERE.
(no subject)
Kallen's shock time will come later. Lelouch was concerned about getting her away from him, because he thought he was going to die. But she heard him. 'You must live on.' That's why she turned around, and that's why she tried to get the others to stop. They didn't listen 'cause they're dickholes, but Rolo saved the day so all is well.

I wouldn't say that he suddenly started to genuinely reciprocate Rolo's brotherly love at that moment (though Lelouch has taken things for granted before -case and point, Shirley- and tends to notice how special some people are only AFTER they're gone, as he admits during the preview, so I wouldn't be surprised if he genuinely held some attachment to Rolo deep in his heart), but Lelouch certainly gained a newfound respect for the boy. Rolo stayed by Lelouch's side unconditionally, despite being lied to and hated. Compared with the Knight's swift betrayal only moments beforehand, Lelouch must have been truly touched, or at the very least, impressed by Rolo's devotion, enough to allow Rolo some peace before he passed away.
And well, Rolo had always proved to be unpredictable. He could have gone down the unemotional route, but then again, his belief that Lelouch loved him despite his harsh words prevailed.

lulu was kind of weird...i think hes still really holding onto the hope that nunally isn't dead. hell im holding onto that hope.

At least kallen figured out that was going on in Lulu's head. but I'm PISSED! at Ougi! that bastard!. ok Todo has a clear reason to be pissed at zero but ougi! WTF his woman is still alive! its not like he ordered her to die!. not to mention the woman and children thing. they showed their colors. so it wasen't just a oh you killed innocent woman and children!.
Schnizel has been a character that I wasen't sure how to classify till now...HE A LIEING CHEATING FACKER BASTARD! him and his bitch sister.
LuLu needs to learn that lieing to protect someone is not always the best way to go, he's gotton to used to lieing.
I actully didn't like Rolo before but it took a act of what you can only call love to do what he did (the whole trying to kill nannuly aside) I really feel sorry for him and i'm sad at the way he died.
I hope the black knights feel like asses when the find out the truth and reality of things. true they have some reasons to be pissed at zero but not to the extent of betrayal.
oh and it looks like Suzaku has fianlly snapped. its unclear what he's gonna do now, not like he can kill himself out of greif but on a side note, orangie needs to anti geass him, that "survive" order is doing more damage then good now.
Charles is up to shit again but Lulu seems to have the resolve to fight to fight him still, and it seems like he's resigned himself to his own death too.
This was way to much for my mind to take in one episode...I swear sunrise was trying to off a good populaton of the fans with this one XD

HOWEVER, I think he was doing good with what he had to work with. He still kept to the heart of Zero's mission. "Ok, Zero is a gigantic asshole who may have been manipulating us against his will. But you can't have him until we have Japan." I clapped for him for that. GG Ohgi...now go marry Villeta and have tons of half and half babies and be the shining light of peace between Britannia and Japan.

Lelouch was being in character when he went psycho over Nunnally. Toudou was suprised on how he gave out his commands like a mad man. He was devastated with Nunnally's death. Can't blame him for that since Nunnally was his most treasured person in the world.

This forever this. I hated Rolo just as much as the next guy. But seeing him and his devotion and LOVE for his 'brother' after everything Lelouch has said.... Well you can't get that kind of loyalty anymore. And fuck, OotBK ditched him with only half the story, they didn't understand why Lelouch did what he did (and that sound clip from him about Geassing Euphie...total hax, we all know that was an accident), and they betrayed him. But there Rolo had it laid out in front of him with no filter, no sugar coating.
I'VE BEEN TRYING TO KILL YOU FOR THE LAST TEN EPISODES YOU FAGGOT!
and STILL, Rolo saved his Nii-san.
That's love. That's why I forgive him. That's why I now love him.
Nina...Suzaku...you will have no such luck.
Icon appropriate..sorta
What rolo thought when he pondered in shinkirou's hangar.
I never had to choke myself in this lie of yours.
I convinced myself this was my only life.
Here I am, still waiting, still holding time.
I may not be what I think I am.
But I just don’t care as there’s a place I feel you.
A place where I never used to feel that…
A lie got real, that love will never change.
I know you've never really got inside of me.
But for a dream of mine you realized there’s no forgoing.
I’ll raise you up, never let you fall.
Lelouch… Just let me disappear.
