Stage 15.447 âPlaying Strangers"
Shirley
Hmmm, your name was Lelouch-kun wasnât it?
Lelouch
Yeah.
Shirley
Could you help me and head out to the culture club please? Iâll go to the P.E. department.
Lelouch
Got it.
Shirley
Well then, President, weâll go get all these printouts handed out over lunch.
Milly
Iâm counting on you, Shirley. You too, Lelouch, good luck!
Lelouch
Weâre off.
Lelouch and Shirley leaves.
Rivalz
Ah, how bad is this with them playing strangers. Makes you take a deep breathe.
Milly
Come on Rivalz, concentrate. Youâve still got some work of your own to do, donât you?
Rivalz
Yeah, yeah.
Both typing away on computers.
Milly
Weâll watch over the two of them quietly. Iâm sure theyâll be happy when they think back to the times theyâve had together.
Rivalz
Iâm not too worried about Shirley. Iâm more worried about the childish Lelouch being with her.
Milly
That part of Lelouche is pretty cute.
Rivalz
You know him well, donât you?
Milly
Maybe. What is it?
Rivalz
Our President just loves doing things like that.
Milly
Eh?
Rivalz
Playing strangers.
Milly
Yeah, you might be right.
Rivalz
Well how about we do the same? Maybe we can create some memories we can look back at too!
Hi! Iâm Rivalz Cardemonde!
Milly sighs.
Uh, I guess I better finish off my work off quickly huh.
Milly
Hi! My nameâs Milly Ashford. Nice to meet you.
Rivalz
Nice to meet you er-! How should I refer to you�
Milly
How do you want to refer to me?
Rivalz
Millyâ¦! âsan?
Rivalz tries to call her âMilly" without any of the formal affixes so that they sound closer but changes his mind.
Milly
You might not get another chance to speak to me like this~
Rivalz
Millyâ¦! âsan⦠Ummm, whatâs your favourite food?
Milly
I like any cooking made with vegetables.
Rivalz
And your favourite colour?
Milly
A rainbow of colours because Iâve yet to like only one colour~
Rivalz
What about your hobbies?
Milly
Iâve been interested in raising flowers lately!
Rivalz
Milly-san⦠Are you used to having these kind of conversations�
Milly
Of course, I have lots of them~
Rivalz
I see youâve had a lot of experience thenâ¦
Milly-san! Have you fallen in love before?
Milly
Fallen in love? Huhu! Iâd like to experience true love~
Rivalz
Er, President?
Milly
Oh come on you! Weâre just playing strangers here! Just for today, Iâm going to be a maiden who dreams~
Rivalz
Then I want to make good use of this strange meeting!
Milly
How for example?
Rivalz
For example-! Wellâ¦
Kallen rushes in.
Kallen
Pardon me!
Rivalz
Argh!
Kallen
Did you give Arthur his lunch yet?
Milly
Oh sorry, Arthur! I forgot!
Hands out food to Arthur the cat.
Kallen
This week Suzaku was going to take care of him but, he said heâs busy with some military affairs or something today.
Rivalz
Didnât you say you were going to take today off too, Kallen?
Kallen
I came all the way out here because I was worried about Arthur, you know!
Rivalz
From where?
Kallen
Umâ¦
Milly
The hospital?
Kallen
Er, yeah! The hospital! *Cough* *Cough* Well, Iâm going back.
Milly
Should I accompany you back?
Kallen
No, Iâll be fine thanksâ¦
Kallen leaves.
Rivalz
I want to make good use of this only chance!
Milly
What for example?
Rivalz
For example, I⦠My feelings forâ¦
Suzaku comes bursting in.
Suzaku
Sorry Arthur! You must be starved!
Rivalz
Who is it this time!
Milly
Oh, Suzaku! If youâre here to give him lunch, Kallen just done that a moment ago.
Suzaku
Thank goodness! Iâm sorry I was late, Arthur-! Ow~!
Rivalz
Suzakuâ¦
Suzaku
Eh?
Rivalz
Suzaku!!
Suzaku
Ah, sorry! Oh yeahâ¦! I have to go. I think had to go have lunch with Lelouch todayâ¦
Milly
But Lelouch went out with Shirley.
Suzaku
Ah, maybe it was with Nunnally⦠See you soon!
Suzaku rushes out.
Milly
Suzaku?
Suzaku
Later, Rivalz.
Rivalz
Bye.
Milly
Ha⦠What a fun lunchtime this is turning out to be.
Rivalz
Milly-san⦠Shall we pick up from where we left off?
Milly
Yes, where did we left off?
Nina
Hmmm, âFor example, Iâ¦ï¿½?
Rivalz
Yeah, thatâs right! For example, I must let the person I love know how I feel towards them- Er, you were here all along, Nina?!
Nina
Well, I have to get going to prepare for the afternoon lessons.
Milly
OK! See you after class!
Nina leaves.
Rivalz
Nina heard what we said didnât sheâ¦?
Milly
Yes, everything.
Rivalz
Now that itâs come to this then⦠Milly!
Rivalz abandons the formal affixes.
Milly
What is it?
Bell rings.
Hmmm? What did you want to say~?
Rivalz
Umm⦠I want to make use of this only chance to⦠commemorate with us playing strangers.
Milly
Commemorate?
Rivalz
Iâm sorry for making you do this to create memories for me!
Milly
Hmmm?
Rivalz
But Milly-san, Iâ¦
Milly
Donât worry, I forgive you.
Rivalz
Seriously?
Milly
Iâll forgive you since itâs for creating memories!
Rivalz
Really?
Milly
Thank youâ¦
Rivalz
Huh?
Milly
Alright! Playing strangers ends here! Listen. Since I gave you some wonderful memories, you need to send me off with a smile, boy!
Rivalz
What do you mean by that�
Milly
The rest of the work you can do after class~! Here, Iâll leave it all on your desk!
Rivalz
Er, President whatâs all this all of a sudden?
Milly
Right, now thatâs all done, time to dash~!
Rivalz
President!

Stage 0.522 âThe Song of the Secret Base"
Suzaku
Kururugi Suzaku is a Japanese boy! He does not need a reason to save who he wants or do what he wants!
Lelouch
Heâs too defiant!
Suzaku
Iâm going to find her myself! Just try stopping me if you can!
Lelouch
Wait! Iâm the one protecting Nunnally! I donât need anyoneâs help! Not an adultâs help or a Japanese personâs help! I can do it alone-
Suzaku
Shut up! Stop being so stubborn, you idiot! Youâre always doing things alone. Youâre just impertinent!
Suzaku rushes off.
Lelouch
âSaying that, Suzaku disappeared into the forest. Heâs such a pushy and selfish guy but⦠I should be thankful to him just nowâ¦"
Lelouch starts walking off into the forest too.
Nunnally! Where are you? Answer me please! Itâs Lelouch!
âI ran desperately through the forest. Nunnallyâs legs arenât well so she couldnât have gone far.�?
âHuh?! Someoneâs here further inside the forest!�?
Nunnally, is that you?
Mystery Girl (CC?)
No.
Lelouch
âThe person before me wasnât Nunnally. It was a girl wearing a kimono with a sunflower pattern. Her back was turned towards me so Iâm not sure but, sheâs very young.�?
Excuse me but, did a little girl come this way? She has chestnut hair⦠Her legs are disabled and so are her eyesâ¦
Ummm⦠Onee-san?
CC
No, she didnât come this way.
Lelouch
I seeâ¦
Pardon me but, you donât work for the Kururugi do you?
âI know all the Kurugis by their face⦠Now what would an outsider be doing here in the forest?"
âDid she get lostâ¦? Or is she⦠An assassin!�"
CC
Donât worry. Iâm not your enemy. I was asked to come here to see how you were doing.
Lelouch
To see how I was doing� Who on earth are you!
CC
Itâs raining.
Lelouch
âRaining at this time?! Nunnally will get soaked⦠I have to find her quick!"
Onee-chan! Iâm sorry for being so abrupt but I donât have much time-
âSheâs gone⦠The girl with the sunflower kimono was gone."
âFor a moment I thought she was here to help⦠Who was she? She mentioned someone asked her to come out here."
Lelouch hears a girlâs voice singing.
âThat voice! Nunnally!�"
âItâs small and faint but itâs Nunnallyâs! I canât be wrong."
âBut thereâs another voice⦠Who else is singing along with her? It couldnât beâ¦"
âI ran⦠In the soaking rain I ran⦠towards Nunnallyâs voice."
The singing stops.
âNunnallyâs⦠laughing?"
âEver since mother died, she has never laughed before. Why nowâ¦?"
Suzaku
Lelouch!
Lelouch
Suzaku!
âSuzaku appeared onto the surface. To be more precise, he appeared from a hole dug into the ground."
Suzaku
This way. Nunnallyâs here too.
Nunnally
Onii-sama!
Lelouch
Nunnally! Youâre safe!
Nunnally
Yes I am, Onii-sama!
Lelouch
âNunnally was deep inside the hole⦠Together with that Suzaku."
Nunnally
Iâm sorry, Onii-sama. I fell into this hole and passed outâ¦
Lelouch
You fell down this hole?
Suzaku
Itâs a secret base I made.
Nunnally
Itâs amazing! Thereâs food here and weapons!
Lelouch
Nunnally⦠You laughed just there.
Nunnally
Oh? Yes, I did.
Lelouch
Why? You havenât laughed for a long time.
Nunnally
It was because Suzaku-san laughed.
Lelouch
Eh?
Nunnally
He laughed in such a loud, really happy voice⦠That I laughed along too.
Lelouch
Laughâ¦
Suzaku
Havenât you noticed, Lelouche? You have never laughed.
Lelouch
âNunnally wasnât the only one who couldnât laugh. I too couldnâtâ¦"
âI see⦠Thatâs how it was."
Nunnally
Onii-sama, come into Suzaku-sanâs secret base. Itâs still raining outside.
Lelouch
âI lost. I couldnât find Nunnally. I couldnât even make her laugh⦠but this Japanese didâ¦"
âHe found Nunnally for me so I have to give my thanks⦠I have to say thank youâ¦"
Suzaku
Lelouch! Youâ¦
Lelouch
â¦
Suzaku
Iâm sorry.
Iâm sorry I hit you when we first met.
Iâm sorry.
Lelouch
âHe⦠he apologised so easily?"
Why are you apologising...?
Suzaku
Youâre amazing.
Lelouch
Eh?
Suzaku
I heard a lot about you from Nunnally.
I thought you were just some pampered prince butâ¦
You donât have a mother, father or any other relatives nowâ¦
Yet youâve been protecting your sister alone all this time⦠Just like me youâreâ¦
Lelouch
Why are you crying?
Suzaku
Youâre too⦠*Cry*
Lelouch
"What a strange person this guy was. Butâ¦"
Suzaku
Youâre strong.
Nunnally
Yes, Onii-sama is really strong.
Suzaku
Come on in, Lelouch.
Lelouch
I canât. The holeâs only big enough for the two of you.
Suzaku
Donât worry, itâll be fine if we squeeze in.
If you stay out there youâll be soaked. Come on!
Drags Lelouch into the hole.
Lelouch
Donât pull me in like that⦠Such a rough guy you.
Suzaku
Come on, close the hatch.
Lelouch
Itâs so cramped.
Suzaku
Donât complain about my secret base.
Lelouch
But you know⦠itâs warm.
Nunnally
It is, isnât it? Suzaku-sanâs secret base is really warm.
Lelouch
Yes it is, Nunnally.
âAfter all the trouble we went through, we got along well."
âThat summer day⦠was the beginning for usâ¦"
âFor me⦠Nunnally⦠And probably for Suzaku tooâ¦"
âIt was the start of a brilliant time of happiness for us."
âThe rain⦠lifted without us knowing."
End of Stage 0.522
I'm actually waiting for the DVD boxset to come out before buying this show and showing my support but until then, the 132 page guide book from June's Newtype magazine will have to do. Actually still waiting for it to arrive from Animenation.
