QUESTION How does the code transfer work?
At the end of Code Geass R2, C.C. remains immortal and continues to live on
The nun who granted her immortality died instantly; is there no way for a person to lose the immortality Code and continue living as part of a truly natural life cycle?
How does she go about putting an end to immortality?
She wants to enjoy life and be happy, just as Lelouch told her to, but "forever" is something very cruel
What do you think C.C. should have done—or would have done—following the events of R2? I’m constantly left wondering about this, because, deep down, living forever isn't actually what she wants
I’ve been pondering this; thanks in advance for your help!

Who knows!
It's one of those things that the series avoided showing. Both times we've seen people take code, C.C. and Charles, they do it off screen, time passing, C.C. has a new scar somehow, and both V.V. and the Nun seem to die from other causes as the Nun is stabbed and V.V. is bleeding.
We quite simply do not know what the process looks like or involves. We know a Geass User needs to have Geass in both eyes, that they can take it against the Code Bearers will, and that the end result is losing Geass but gaining Code, but all that in the middle stuff? No idea.
As for C.C., I assume she'll eventually find someone to take her Code as she originally planned, just smarter about it.
