I wasn't able to watch ep 12 cause i had to go on vacation. When I got back, i downloaded both ep 12 and 13 today and finished watching it. Ep 13 made me feel sick after watching it along with ep 12. This episode was hard to stomach because of Shirley's death and now it seems that this is the point of no turning back for everyone's happiness. I didnt expect for her to die in this episode. R.I.P. Shirley.....

That's just sad that the only people in Geass that seem to die are the ones that don't deserve it while the people that do get off scott free. Kaguya and Tianzi better watch their backs. If you aren't Nunnally and are good then you're marked for death which is sad because Euphie and Shirley were cooler than Nunnally ever will be.
I wonder if Geass really can have a happy ending. |

I actually still am of the belief that underneath her cute demeanor Nunnally harbors her own piranha like nature as well, and like Var said she has a stronger grasp of everything around her as well as a large amount of power she she can handle herself a lot better then Shirley did <_<

Well, I suppose we might find out that she isn't quite the frail girl the world in general - including Lelouch - might think that she is... |

The Third Person
Ok, so here's my theory.
So, first of all, Shirley talks over to Rolo, asking about him and Lelouch and about whether or not he likes him. Shirley says that she likes him, and states that she wants to help Lelouch in his quest. Then, she mentions Nunnally. Here's where my thoughts come in. Rolo immediately Geass's after she states that. Now, that can only mean one of two things. Rolo is triggered by the name of Nunnaly, and is furious so he immediately unleashes his rage. Or...something else could have startled him. What could that something else be? Remember, Rolo had previously worked for Brittania as a watch over Lelouch. The greatest person that could appear before Rolo that would startle him is none other than the Knight of One. However, that is only one possibility. I am guessing that it must be a person who completely comprehends what Rolo's old mission was. Whoever the third person is must have heard the conversation, and realized that Rolo had taken the side of Lelouch. However, it must be a person who can defeat Rolo, which is why my conclusion was one of the Knights of Round. Figuring that the Knight of One is the strongest, he would be able to take down Rolo easily with some sort of ability which can break Rolo's time freeze. So, the scenario would look something like this. Lets just use the Knight of One for a basis of argument. Ok, so Rolo and Shirley are talking about Lelouch, and all of a sudden, the Knight of One appears behind Shirley. Rolo immediately realizes that he has made a mistake talking to Shirley, as he they had talked about BOTH Lelouch and Nunnally. The Knight of One would realize that Rolo's loyalty has changed. Rolo immediately Geasses, and the time freezes. However, assuming that the Knight of One is all powerful, he would break the barrier, and capture Rolo. This would free Shirley from the time freeze, and Shirley will certainly try to stop the Knight of One. The Knight of One will fend off Shirley, reversing her gun pointed at him, making her shoot herself. He would then take Rolo away, which explains why Rolo was not there afterwards when Shirley is dying away. That, to me, is much more believable than the Suzaku story. Plus, how the hell would Suzaku break the time Geass, I doubt he would have that willpower. To me, the Knight of One seems much more powerful and should be able to break the Geass, and besides, the title of "Knight of One" is not a light title. The thing is, if there was a third person, it must be a person strong enough to break Rolo's Geass. |

Nunnally is also more aware of the harsh reality of the world as well compared to Euphie, having gone through one of the most traumatizing influences imaginable. In that sense, she isn't really as soft as Euphie was but is still sensitive enough to retain the fundamental ideals Euphie tried to carry out.
To beat power you must have power, an established Code Geass rule I feel The Lamperouge branch of the family is a cut above those other complacent fools in the rest of the tree

Why Shirley's death is suspect:
- Shirley's fatal wound seems to be a bullet wound and not the favoured knife Rollo carries - Shirley was facing the stairs when talking to Rollo but she is found dying facing another direction - Shirley's finger was not on the gun's trigger when Rollo used his geass and when she was found dying suggesting that she didn't pull the trigger at any point in time in between and thus didn't knowingly kill herself - The palm of the hand Shirley has holding the gun is facing towards the ground...if Rollo grabbed Shirley's hand to shoot herself, I would assume the palm of her hand would face up like her other hand when she falls and hits the ground...so it seems unlikely for Rollo to grab Shirley's hand and pull the trigger himself - Rollo is an experienced assassin and would have made sure Shirley was dead especially since he had time to finish the job even if he made a mistake if he was worried that Shirley might reveal info to others - If Rollo simply snapped and killed Shirley on impulse, thinking of a way to kill her and avoid arousing suspcian like taking her gun and shooting her, and placing the gun seems too elaborate for someone who is supposed to be in an unstable state incapable of reason - Shirley's dying posture with her arms spread out seems odd...seems like she was trying to shield someone from a gun shot - The small pools of blood near Shirley's feet ... seems odd they would be there...if she was shot and was still standing, the pools of blood should be closer to her feet...they don't seem to be caused by splashes from the large pool of blood either as that large blood of pool shouldn't be there the moment she falls - The mask falling could be the mask of the person trying to attack Rollo and Shirley - The scenes of the locket before and after Shirley meets Rollo seems odd...it seems to be the one Rollo usually carries, but that locket is quite important to Rollo judging from his reaction when Lelouch tried to take it away from him before...if it's so important, why is Rollo not carrying it with him and instead it is displayed someplace else |

Very sad death. I really want Shirley to stay around for Lelouch but I guess he's destined to be alone with that Geass.
I really didn't expect that from Orange. I'm glad though, he's been an interesting character from the very start and having him being able to Geass cancel is a huge asset. |
