You realise that not telling someone the truth is usually far more dangerous when they are doing exactly what Lelouch is/was doing... right? He is taking on an unknown enemy, Charles, she knows that else she's an utter idiot. Not disclosing: Charles' power, Charles' partners, a fucking cult ready to kill Lelouch at any moment, are not good ways to show you care for someone. Its like sending them into a lion's den without telling them there are lions inside.

And please, the Geass has always been a part of his goals because (here's another list) Charles had Geass, Lelouch himself used Geassed, V.V., and the cult. It has always been a part of his objective she just never told him.

Case in point, giving someone the benefit of the doubt is nice, ignoring the facts that have been presented to give someone said enormous and unjustified benefit of the doubt annoys me to no end.

Further this that the only reason Lelouch is still alive is seemingly because Charles did not want him to be killed, where as V.V. did, and really, you're serving to paint a positive picture of Charles, not Marianne or C.C..

Kallen makes your point moot. Even if its only one person, there is someone within the Order who can understand Lelouch's dealings and act accordingly. Whereas in C.C.'s situation she is the only one with information and can do whatever the fuck she wants with it because no one can question her actions.
