Mm, there were a lot of things I liked to do, but even something I didn't always enjoy was more fun if I was spending time with my siblings. I guess being with them is my favorite then. When we were younger I was with Lelouch and Nunnally a lot. Cornelia and Schneizel too, but they were older and they had duties to attend, but the three of us could be young together.

Why else would she pour so much of herself into the school and welcome baskets and every other thing she does to try and make life better. To make prison home.]
