Millicent. That's BRILLIANT!

Milly-Lelouch is hard to right, but you did a good job overall. And the introduction of Milly's full name was a very nice touch; I think this may well be her actual name. Like Lelouch's name it comes from old French/German/Norman and though Google turns up different results the two most popular meanings attributed to the name include "Industrious" and "Strength."

Childish Milly was sublime, as was her asking her mother whether Lelouch was a present for her.

Haha, thanks!!!
I thought the Millicent joke would be a little over the top, but I did google it up and saw the old german roots. It was a much better choice than Amelia.

Childish Milly was fun to write, the hard part came with the ending XD

That's actually not how they met; one of the sound episodes covers it. But who cares, YOUR WAY IS AWESOME TOO!

And I agree that the present thing was very cute, and I can definitely imagine a young Milly saying something like that.

I also really loved the line "His sister had his smile, but she had his laugh." It's, um, pretty?

BTW, I'm very glad that spamming the pairing I want actually works, even if it's in strikethrough. XD

I figured that they probably weren't introduced like that, but I had no time to sit and listen to the sound episodes XD

As for the present thing, I figured she would be around 10 or 11 years old when Lelouch was taken by the Ashfords (If I'm not mistaken). Young enough to think childishly but not too old to act like a spoiled child.

That 'laugh' line sounds weird, and didn't quite came out as I wanted it to, but apparently it worked well enough to get the point across. I'm very glad you liked it ^__^

And it was kind of hard NOT to choose them out of the other options you had. Besides, I couldn't have written a convincing Kaguya + Tianzi or Anya x blogging. Plus, I had that thought of 'Milly always making Lulu laugh' stuck in my head.
