[22 OCT] [CODE GEASS] [INFINITE POSSIBILITIES]
Title: Infinite Possibilities
Day/Theme: 22nd October 2010; other worlds than these
Series: Code Geass
Character(s)/Pairing(s): Lelouch, C.C.; Lelouch/C.C.
Rating: G
Notes: Set post R2. Contains a hidden reference to another series.
On a particular perfectly average day, Lelouch finds himself wondering about the what-ifs.
What if his mother had not been murdered? What if he and Nunnally had never been sent to Japan? What if there was no such thing as Sakuradite? What if things like Codes and Geasses were only wild tales concocted by whimsical storytellers?
The possibilities are endless.
He imagines that there are variations of the world as he knows it. A different history, where Britannia is not the power-hungry world superpower it is. A different setting, where his family is full of love and affection, free from schemes and secrets. A different life, where he is in love and bethrothed to a simple girl who's head over heels in love with him too.
He imagines, wildly, worlds where neither "Lelouch vi Britannia" nor "Lelouch Lamperouge" exist. Instead, he is born to different parents, given a different name, chooses a different path. He imagines he is a traveling merchant of some sort, enduring a life of hard work and measured risks. (It strikes him as a job that suits him in some fashion, so he decides to go with it.)
For a moment he considers how his witch would fit into all of them, and illogically knows for a fact that she would've somehow found a way for them to collide headlong into each other's lives regardless. Even his merchant life would not be spared, he considers wryly - perhaps a troublesome creature who he also makes some unusual contract with?
"I believe we agreed," a familiar voice rouses him from his reverie, "that you were only allowed to brood and be moody on special occasions and anniversaries."
The boy turns to regard the intruder of his solitude even though he already knows who he'll find. True enough, C.C. is staring at him, arms crossed and a look of irritation lurking in her golden orbs.
"I was daydreaming," he retorts somewhat defensively. "An entirely different thing altogether."
Her raised eyebrow tells him she doesn't quite believe him, but she plays along all the same. "Oh? And what were you daydreaming about?"
A noncommittal shrug is all he offers, along with a casual grin. "Possibilities."
Lelouch thinks that in spite of how similar or different they are in each incarnation they'll be bound to each other anyway, and the thought fills him with an amusing sense of comfort. He decides he is content enough with that.
