History FanFic / GaltonsChildren

* AffablyEvil: Arguably Lelouch, depending on where your AlternateCharacterInterpretation falls.

* DroppedABridgeOnHim: ''Dear Collective Unconscious'', like you wouldn't believe. Even ''[[spoiler:Arthur]]'' wasn't spared, biting it at the Saitama incident. [[spoiler:Villetta]] wasn't really bad per se, but complications arose from the botched assassination, which led to [[spoiler:Sayoko]] and [[spoiler:Jeremiah]] biting the bullet, literally in the former's case. Then, [[spoiler:Rivalz]] gets killed in a subway bombing. Note that all the above happened within ''[[KillEmAll two chapters]]''. Earlier in the story [[spoiler:The Four Holy Swords]] were mentioned as having been killed off, and [[spoiler:Todoh]] captured. [[spoiler:He]] ended up dead a few chapters later, as mentioned by Lucy. Then, things went worse: Lucy had [[spoiler:Ohgi]] killed on a suicide mission, [[spoiler:Diethard]] was briefly mentioned as having been killed by [[spoiler:an OSI agent, possibly Rolo]]; the latter ended up torn apart by [[spoiler:Nana]]. [[spoiler:Clovis and Lloyd]] both meet their ends at Lelouch's hand at around that time, thanks to Geass. Then, in what could only be described as a [[WhamEpisode wham chapter]] (especially for this story), [[spoiler:Odysseus, Guinevere, Carline, and '''Euphie''']] get knocked off at once, at the SAZ ceremony. [[spoiler:Guilford]] gets killed soon after, and [[spoiler:the canon Black Knights from season 1 (including Tamaki, Inoue, and the others from Shinjuku)]] are purged by [[spoiler:Lucy/Zero]]. It seems as if all the canon ''Franchise/CodeGeass'' characters are being targeted for [[KillEmAll major bridge droppings]], and are going out way too fast. Of course, considering the [[Manga/ElfenLied other source material]], this might just be tame... Oddly enough, out of the characters who were killed off canonically, [[spoiler:Mao]] has been Geassed into serving Lelouch and survived thus far, and [[spoiler:Shirley and Kallen]] have been hinted to have survived for many years afterward, having written books on the story's time period.

* KillEmAll: It definitely seems to be going this way. Check the DroppedABridgeOnHim entry, above.
** Lampshaded by C.C. in Chapter 22:
---> [[spoiler:At the rate you're going, you'll be the only person left in a couple months, she [C.C.] said.]]

* IncestIsRelative: The main reason for the Royal Family's problems.

* InTheBlood: Deliberately made that way, and Euphie's the only person who doesn't follow.

This story provides examples of:

* DroppedABridgeOnHim: ''Dear Collective Unconscious'', like you wouldn't believe. Even ''[[spoiler:Arthur]]'' wasn't spared, biting it at the Saitama incident. [[spoiler:Villetta]] wasn't really bad per say, but complications arose from the botched assassination, which led to [[spoiler:Sayoko]] and [[spoiler:Jeremiah]] biting the bullet, literally in the former's case. Then, [[spoiler:Rivalz]] gets killed in a subway bombing. Note that all the above happened within ''[[KillEmAll two chapters]]''. Earlier in the story [[spoiler: The Four Holy Swords]] were mentioned as having been killed off, and [[spoiler:Todoh]] captured. [[spoiler:He]] ended up dead a few chapters later, as mentioned by Lucy. Then, things went worse: Lucy had [[spoiler:Ohgi]] killed on a suicide mission, [[spoiler:Diethard]] was briefly mentioned as having been killed by [[spoiler:an OSI agent, possibly Rolo]]; the latter ended up torn apart by [[spoiler:Nana]]. [[spoiler:Clovis and Lloyd]] both meet their ends at Lelouch's hand at around that time, thanks to geass. Then, in what could only be described as a [[WhamEpisode wham chapter]] (especially for this story), [[spoiler:Odysseus, Guinevere, Carline, and '''Euphie''']] get knocked off at once, at the SAZ ceremony. [[spoiler:Guilford]] gets killed soon after, and [[spoiler: the canon Black Knights from season 1 (including Tamaki, Inoue, and the others from Shinjuku)]] are purged by [[spoiler:Lucy/Zero]]. It seems as if all the canon ''Franchise/CodeGeass'' characters are being targeted for [[KillEmAll major bridge droppings]], and are going out way too fast. Of course, considering the [[Manga/ElfenLied other source material]], this might just be tame... Oddly enough, out of the characters who were killed off canonically, [[spoiler:Mao]] has been geassed into serving Lelouch and survived thus far, and [[spoiler:Shirley and Kallen]] have been hinted to have survived for many years afterwards, having written books on the story's time period.
** Spoke to soon: Lulu [[spoiler:uses Mao as a suicide soldier/decoy, Milly's dad bites it during a revolt in Pendragon, Cornelia dies in the attack that killed Mao, and while several other named characters die left-and-right (including pretty much all the Rounds thanks to Lucy), Lelouch and Suzaku get beaten by Nunnally of all people]], ending the story. Of course, they're not all safe, as the epilogue proves: [[spoiler:Kallen gets killed]] via a lucky shot by some faceless {{Mook}} who bites it 10 seconds later. [[BadNewsIrrelevantNews But hey, at least]] [[EnsembleDarkhorse Orenji]] [[BadNewsIrrelevantnews turns out to have survived]]! [[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5327665/34/Galtons_Children A final list]] [[AllThereInTheManual of who survived and who died]], as well as how, has been added. [[spoiler:Thankfully, Nana was spared in this case:]]
-> [[spoiler:Nana: MAYBE killed by Jeremiah, Chapter 23. I prefer to think that her freaky recuperative abilities got her out of it, since she was far from the blast radius, and… Actually, you know what? Yes. Nana survived. Somehow—I don't care how—she survived the blast, received Rakshata's antidote courtesy of Lelouch's Imperial Decree #1, and was adopted by a nurturing family that loved her. Screw cynicism.]]
* EvilutionaryBiologist: The Kamakura researchers

* HumongousMecha: Lelouch is clearly trying to get a six-armed knightmare frame designed for Lucy.

* [[spoiler:KillEmAll]]: It definitely seems to be going this way. Check the DroppedABridgeOnHim entry, above.

--> [[spoiler:At the rate you're going, you'll be the only person left in a couple months, she [C.C.] said.]]

* {{Narm}}, though [[InvokedTrope intentionally]] [[NarmCharm invoked]]:
--> ''"I'd love to stay and chat, but I've got a democracy to squelch and an empire to win. Until next time, Kallen. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!"''

--> ''I told her a more-or-less unedited version of my life for the past few months. Her jaw dropped lower each time, and she called me by turns (and I quote) "the biggest liar I've ever met"? and "Prince Houdini". She also worried what I'd do after they acquitted me.''

* ShoutOut: Euphie's e-mail address is apparently "Euphinator96", in reference to the season finale of R1. Lelouch, likewise, goes by "[[ByronicHero LordByron111]]". The show actually contains many [[ShoutOut references]] to season 1 of ''Anime/CodeGeass'', including Mao asking if Lelouch did something stupid like "[[TheTapeKnewYouWouldSayThat make a pre-recorded tape]]", and so forth. Lelouch refers to them as "What Ifs".

* BigScrewedUpFamily: The Britannian royal family, largely because of [[TheEugenicist eugenics]].

* CrowningMomentOfAwesome: Lelouch's rescue in chapter 27.
** Shirley, [[TheChick of all people]], gets one [[spoiler:when she incites an inter-class riot in chapter 29.]]
* CrowningMomentOfFunny: As unfunny as the situation that came before was:
--> ''So there you have it: two fully clothed teenagers... soaking wet... standing in a warm shower... in each other’s arms... not doing anything remotely sexual. Perhaps the world'' was ''boring back in my day.''
** Also, during the negotiations with the Black Knights.
--> '''Lelouch:''' "Why didn't ''I'' get the seat with the cupholder?"
--> '''Kallen:''' "Dunno... Must have something to do with being a genocidal dictator. Or something."
** And in chapter 15, when Lelouch went gardening... with ''landmines''. HilarityEnsues.
** Schneizel's reaction to [[spoiler:Lucy killing all of the Knights of the Round]] probably counts.
--> '''Schneizel:''' "Well...[[PrecisionFStrike fuck]]."

* GambitPileup: Unless he's careful, Lelouch might end up doing this to ''himself''.
** And in the end, a good portion of the Xanatos Schemes that piled up there [[spoiler:were Nunnally's.]]

* ShoutOut: Euphie's e-mail address is apparently "Euphinator96", in reference to the season finale of R1. Lelouch, likewise, goes by "[[ByronicHero LordByron111]]". The show actually contains many [[ShoutOut references]] to season 1 of CodeGeass, including Mao asking if Lelouch did something stupid like "[[XanatosRoulette make]] [[TheTapeKnewYouWouldSayThat a]] [[CrowningMomentOfAwesome pre-recorded tape]]", and so forth. Lelouch refers to them as "What Ifs".
* SplitPersonalityTakeover: Averted for now. Lucy is always in her lucid state.
** Not always [[spoiler:the really violent side of her was out a lot, but was later suppressed.]]

* TenchiSolution: Brought up in the end and is shown to be a not very happy thing.
