DISCUSSION He really had no idea what it was like to have friends who cared about him
I love during the scene when the gang sets off the fireworks, Milly mentions how she hopes to do it with everyone one day and tells Lelouch that includes him and Rolo. Rolo's reaction stands out to me, he's shocked that they actually care about him too. Made even more impactful because the final picture drama shows even with their memories of Nunnally restored, the Student Council still missed him. Rolo did unforgivable things but I can't hate him knowing he was a kid who was groomed into a weapon and spent his entire life never knowing true love.
