When Heero had set out for the reunion, he hadn’t exactly planned to spy on Duo. But seeing his name on the passenger list of the plane inbound from Tokyo had been like a punch in the head. He’d only been looking through the system on the off chance that he’d see it, and when it happened, he was nearly caught off guard.
His plane arrived from Milan about an hour before Duo’s, so he had camped out in the terminal, watching and waiting. He thought about what he might do when the flight from Tokyo landed. He might just stroll right up to Duo in the terminal, or outside in the pickup lane. He might follow him for a bit, test his instincts, before revealing himself. Perhaps he would just merge into the crowd and “bump into” him. That seemed the most likely course of action.
Then he had laid eyes on the braided ex-pilot, and all of his carefully considered plans went out the window.
Five years after the Mariemaia Incident, the Gundam pilots reunite to reminisce and catch up. Heero has been anticipating this for some time, and plans to do a little more than simply reconnect with Duo. The years he's spent waffling over his own emotions? Irrelevant. The child Duo brings along with him? Not an obstacle. The fact that Heero appears to be the boy's father? Now that... that might complicate things.
My notes: A notorious mpreg fic appears! Duo is intersex in this due to colony mutations, and the actual mechanics are only lightly touched on. It's more a story about Duo and Heero getting their act together after they've each had some time to grow up. What can I say? I liked it!
