Lost Colors was so many years away...IIRC, Rai disappears after regaining his memories/geass and Shirley drags Lelouch around in the school festival. It's more or less a hanging out with guy B to annoy guy A scenario. I think I have to watch Shirley's ending again...

That kind of behavior is still rather common among girls when they can't seem to get the guys they like to notice them. By trying to make them jealous, they're trying to elicit a reaction from them to show that they are, at some level, interested.

...Then Rai goes "What?" ...We'll need to take this to the Lost Colors thread if this keeps up. So therefore I'm leaving this discussion for awhile. Everything I touch somehow turns into Lost Colors. |

To be honest, I think Freud bullshitted that theory. The more you know about it, the weirder it gets, too, if that were possible. Plus most of his theory's were based on self-analysis, so basically he just wanted to shag his mum and tried to come up with a way to justify it. /sorry offtopic |

Shirley-chan's last words
One thing I must wonder:
Atheism is not only encouraged, but sanction and enforced by law in the British Empire, right? A wise move on Charlie-Boy's part cos much like one Lightning-Throwing Galactic Emperor, it would really be a political liability if people in his empire had belief in the supernatural and hope for a better afterlife, wouldn't it? Poor Shirley-chan spent the eighteen years of her short and beautiful life in an enviroment that hammers it into your head that there is no Gods or a Sweet-Hereafter; no doubt having such beliefs drilled into her head since toddlerhood. Why then, would she say these last words after Rolo heartless evil rag stabbed her, when she would logically would not be able to believe in them? "Lulu, when I come back in the next life, I will fall in love with you again. And the next life too... Forever and ever. Fuck you, Rolo. Fuck you up your brother-obsessed ass for murdering the only other decent British girl in this fucked up world, you flammable piece of rag!!

If he is as wicked as you claim he is, why did he sacrifice his own life for the one person that meant something to him? It's because Lelouch was the one thing important to him he was obsessive. It's never stated the religion of the Holy Britannian Empire, but numerous times they make implications of a book of revelations or a Bible. To be honest said Book of Revelations and Bibles probably can't be considered Bibles because Britannia probably twisted them to fit their views. I don't know what Britannia's religion is but I doubt they practice Atheism. Misotheism? Practiced by the Emperor and one of his few redeeming qualities. (You want to rag on someone? Do it to Charles. He wanted to make an instrumentality COVERED in blood. That is no instrumentality I'd want. Or peace for the that matter. Which is why I dislike ZR.) Shirley was a pure and innocent girl with a heart of gold. Yes, that is true and perspective-based all at once. I admire Rolo's loyalty -- extreme as it is. I admire Shirley trying to comfort Lelouch about her still loving him regardless of space and time -- as tragic as that is. Rolo wasn't inherently a bad person. It was his upbringing that was bad, so he had no grasp on the meaning of life. Neither for his own or for other's. Shirley? I'll miss her. I'll miss her and her crappy cooking. I'll miss her for that saint attitude she has. Rolo? I'll miss him. He knew the importance of being important and protecting what is important. I'll miss him for his loyalty and love. I'll miss him for being the pseudo sibling that became a true sibling. That is my opinion on the matter. |

But, seeing poor Shirley-chan bravely smiling through her tears of pain and sadness, and then see that subhuman rag smiling about what it did straight after, its only human to want to do this
and this: to it, isn't it? My two cents from someone who likes and respects genuniely nice people like Shirley-chan, rarer than diamonds, and ten thousand times more precious.

I'll side with Gordy on this one! Yes Rolo was loyal to Lelouch, just like a trained attack dog! He was determined to kill anyone who got between him and Lelouch, be it Shirley, or Nunally, or even Kallen! Rolo had a one track mind, and even though he discovered love, he still would have killed to keep Lelouch to himself.
And Gordy, watch the language!

geez calm down like Ar said he was raised to think it was alright to kill and was never taught the value of human life I blame V.V and the geass order for making him like that. Plus Shirley would have survived if she would have done what she was told in the first place and stayed outside of the building, but no she decided to go into a building with a supposed terrorist so she was given a consequence for her decision. Also please tone down the language a bit.

Shirley ran into the building where Lelouch was, because Shirley had decided to be the one thing true to him and she had regained her memories of Lelouch as Zero. The place where Shirley belonged? That was for her to decide, and Lelouch as well (since it was Lelouch's side which Shirley decided she belonged at); that broken yandere certainly had no right in deciding it. You can play the apologist for that jealous little psychopath all you like, but blaming Shirley for her own death is just ridiculous.

I know I'm a bit late, but...Gordy. I'm delighted to see how enthusiastic you are about Shirley, but yeah, lay off the Rolo hate. I mean, I'm sure there's a fair number of us here who hate Rolo (especially us Shirley fans) but we keep the hate to ourselves.
As for the Britannian religious thing. First off, they're the "Brittanian Empire" not the "British Empire." And second, I don't think it was ever stated whether they enforce atheism or not. And even if they did, that's no reason that Shirley can't have her own spiritual beliefs. And yeah, blaming Shirley for her own death is just nonsense. |

Not that it has any remorse for what it did, but this would still be a delightfully apporpriate way to deal with the dishrag; as it is still a spectacularly painful, humiliating and terrifying way to go to Hell where it belongs.
I bet I'm not alone amongst Shirley-chan fans who think Rolo is just so Goddamn punchable.

Loving Shirley and bashing Rolo, believe it or not, do not go hand-in-hand. Yes, it's true I don't like Rolo, but I'm not going to relentlessly bash him on a public Internet forum, which, by the way, is against the rules.
