I just hate hate hate hate hate that we keep seeing zero with nunnaly in post-canon tho, like, bitch don't you have any actual work to do for the peace? why are you constantly on wheelchair duty? get an automatic chair or AI autopilot, you didn't even know she was alive when planning zero requiem? get a real job, one random peace ambassador should have no business occupying so much of zero's time
and she was shown asking for it in black albion and pulling him away from his actual duties, so it's not like this is zero's real job either, he just needs to say no to her? the real problem is, if you're not consuming the extra material, gaidens, pamphlets etc. that display rest of his work, and only watching the big fancy animation works, it'll end up looking like all suzaku does is standing around like a mute lug and playing bodyguard to his childhood friend instead of putting himself out there for the sake of the world
but nunnaly is pretty much no one in the grand scale and, frankly, can't do much about anything going on in the narrative of the day, so if the writers want to have an excuse to show her on screen, they'll need to plant her next to zero, which ends up reducing zero's character and looking really insulting to not just suzaku but also to lelouch and their resolution for zero requiem
also like, what the FUCK happened to "nunnaly has the strength to live alone now" like, fuck you, you obviously don't think she does in whatever writer's room you have up there since she constantly needs zero or schneizel hovering behind her when they could've been doing literally anything else as the two busiest people in the world post-ZR except MAYBE kaguya (but hey, we also see kaguya take over the nunnaly babysitting duty here and there)
and arthur was clearly the superior peace ambassador between the two of them, even in his advanced age
and don't even fucking get me started on the universal 100th empress headcanons before the sequel set shit straight, oh god, the sheer idea britannia would be able to stay a monarcy or an empire after all that bullshit alone??? and with what experience, education or insight? even meathead suzaku was more groomed, realistic and compromising for politics by the sheer fact he was able to survive britannia alone? why the fuck would a country in crisis put up with managing a dead-weight head of state on top of all the other hardships they would have to deal with after lelouch's reign?
like, when it comes to smiling for public and saying pretty words and gathering pity, she's good publicity sure? and she does have a back bone and determination, but she'd have no path of showing it when she's essentially an Ideas Man who looks great talking to cameras but leaves everyone else to do the legwork/paperwork with unrealistic unilateral demands even as the governor? like, sure, delegating is important for a ruler, but you still need to have an idea of HOW the things you want done might be done, or if they even can be? so she essentially ends up like charles deciding the national policy and then ditching everything on schneizel? and even charles would've had to handle his own shit when he was younger
and while we as viewers know she had very good reasons to keep her head down and be cautious, she also essentially abandoned her post and responsibilities after tokyo got freija'd as far as it would look like to the people of that world without the context of their family drama and geass, when she should've been at ground zero, providing aid and soothing people's anxieties and giving reassurance or anything at all? so who would be able to trust her with a country? it'd also look really bad to public how she immediately ditched the stage during the million zero debacle and let a knight of round shoulder all decision-making responsibility, even if it was a sensible decision from the viewer's side and for the military since zero already tried to kidnap her once before
the inside joke here is that the real reason suzaku was such a non-entity for much of R2 was probably because he (and rottenmeier) was drowning in the paperwork and management of essentially running area 11 and realizing nunnaly's vision for it. I guess not much changed with that after zero requiem, since nunnaly most definitely isn't the one who's sitting on a negotiation table, talking logistics and exchanging promises with any place she's ambassador-ing to once the cameras stop rolling and the public go home, for the sheer lack of power, authority and inside knowledge to do so this time
...oooh, that's why zero has to follow after her. no wonder the resurrection pamphlets said he was surprisingly excelling in politics, it wasn't actually genbu's blood, he just had no choice but to shape up
all in all tho, I'm really happy with nunnaly's role as a peace ambassador? it plays into her strengths, both obvious or not... she might lack the background to be a shark like her siblings, but she's nowhere near as easy to hoodwinkle and walk over as most might assume, so she can actually achieve a lot from a position of being underestimated, without being bogged down by the details and responsibilities she might not be equipped to handle? she should be perfectly capable of politely fucking over anyone who might try to take advantage of her and walking away smelling like roses
holy shit put nunnaly on spy work, that'd be gold

god I don't have words for how glad I am suzaku was wearing the old zero suit in roze instead of the bling bling resurrection suit. It might be good for lelouch but suzaku is a zero who MOVES, so all those long tails and noisy dangly bits are terrible for him
besides, that overdesigned mask sucked with gray and gold accents used together, let it stay as lulu-specific suit since he is that fancy and extra

bad thing about switching from global to jp with this timing is that instead of doing any strategizing at all, I'm addressing all my problems with damocles/albion go brrrrr, with a dash of random akito from general gacha

...why is the new birthday Suzaku UFN tagged? only a post-zero requiem version of Suzaku would be UFN affiliated? what kind of wild alternate universe route divergence bullshit is lost stories about to drop on me?
and he's so happy and unclouded and pure? he wasn't this cute even when Yuffie was alive and they were at the peak of their happiness? what the fuck is going on? what is this foreshadowing? what kind of bug is this? what's going on? did someone fuck up the coding or whatnot? post-req suzaku doesn't even answer to his own name????
forgetting about his own birthday until someone else reminds him is peak suzaku behavior tho, completely in-character and he does look incredible I wanna bring him home

gosh I still love me some "JIBUN WOOO" and "sekai no oowaari de", they're instant code geass nostalgia punch, but the anniversary rebroadcast songs were so fucking good actually??? I can't believe I slept on them this long??????
Like, I can't stop looping Z.E.R.O, it's the most Zero song to ever Zero, it's the essence of Zero Requiem itself and a whole series spoiler to Zero's character arc
and the translations can be ehhh with tenses and pronouns but when listening to the Japanese lyrics alone, it's also thoroughly a song from Zero(Lelouch) to Zero(Suzaku), and it's a confessional and a wish all at once and a testament to the moment he entrusts him with the world and hnghhhhhhh I can't

Now that I've suddenly fallen back into code geass hell, fuck me if Schneizel el Britannia wasn't somehow the model for Fate's Solomon characterization. Stone cold lack of emotion with flawless decision making, check. Blessed from birth, check. A smiling, geniable, loving appearance to even those closest to them, while empty inside, check. A reactive force with a tendency to become whatever the people and the world wishes of them, without desires of their own, check. Willingness to straight up discard their own life for humanity, check. Just-in-case measures for the continuation of humanity beyond their own lifetime, check. Most diplomatic, peaceful, wise ruler during peacetime, while willing to go Old Testament divine punishment in a warring era, check check check. Family issues? Oooooh boy.
