Multiple Pairings with
Equal Focus

Excerpt:

Duo poked his head around the vehicle, "Oh yeah." He walked over, leaning in to wave at Noin. "To be honest with you, I'm kinda hoping this turns out all Cosmic Horror on us, but really I think this might turn out to be a rather dull Survival Horror." Duo clapped Wufei on the shoulder. "Sorry, dude. I'll tell Sally you loved her."

Wufei rolled his eyes hard.

Noin was bemused. "Was that English?"

"Look, just don't ask." Wufei replied, frustration in his voice as he moved to squat near Heero. "I don't know what he means either."

There was a long sigh from Heero. His hands hovered over the keyboard for a moment. His voice was monotone as he began explaining. "Duo has hopes that something larger than humanity crushes us uncaringly as it continues on its way, but he suspects that actually we will end up in a dark abandoned place, most likely a forest or a factory, trying to survive an unknown foe while simultaneously being picked off one by one. He expressed his sympathy to you because statistically speaking in most western survival horror movies; the most noticeable minority will die first." Heero paused and frowned. He closed his eyes for a moment, as if arguing with himself, and then opened his mouth. He raised his voice, "Statistically speaking, Quatre has more chances of surviving than you in your typical Survival Horror Movie."

"I concede, he's got Final Girl all over him!" Duo shouted back from the rear of their truck. "But Quatre's too good for this sinful earth! I'm just Fashionably Scarred and I'm Genre Savvy, admittedly that places me into the Killed Mid-Sentence, but as long as I try not to make any speeches, I should be fine."
