I've been lurking around the Code Geass FFN archive for a while, and it has been to my greatest disappointment that there are hardly any stories about Jeremiah and Anya. The end of canon simply left so many questions to ask about their life together, and it's surprising to know that only a handful of people have decided to look further into it.
With a Touch of Madness takes place before the beginning of R2, with several alterations, and is consequently partly AU. Following the end of Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion, Jeremiah Gottwald is in Ashford Academy as a Britannian History teacher, while Anya Alstreim is his student. The first chapter begins with the class president telling Anya that Jeremiah wishes to speak with her in his office. The Knight of Six dismisses it with a no, saying that she's busy; a response which amuses Gino to no end.
This is my very first Code Geass fan fiction, and I'm really excited for it. I'm a huge fan of the JeremiahAnya pairing, and this is my little tribute to them. The little deviations from canon will be explained along the way, but otherwise everything else will be kept consistent.
And, yes, I can't possibly forget about fourteen-year gap between them. ;)
