The Effects Of Gravity “I apologize.” Dragged out of his contemplation of the events of the night, Duo looked around him, reaffirming his location. They had left New Port City and ahead he could see the spotlights illuminating the gates of the palace and the limousine carrying the King and Princess passing through. “For what?” “Being so abrupt earlier. I was distracted and irritated and you did not deserve to bear the brunt of that irritation.” “’S okay.” “No. It’s not.” Heero considered the view from the window and leant back, closing his eyes. “Hey, friends can have their moment, you know? It’s not been an easy night for any of us.” Heero nodded slowly. “That is why you would be good for both Chang and Zechs.” “Eh?” “Zechs is the sun and he cannot help but shine. He would disagree, of course, but the facts remain the facts. He is now King, in a prominent public position and not pleased to be there. He is prone to brooding and while not inclined to act hastily he never acts for the short term. Therefore his actions tend to be world shattering when he finally moves, hence the Libra incident.” “You still believe that was staged.” “I know it was.” Heero waved aside the distraction. “Chang would be the moon to the sun. His shadow crossing the sun would cast all into shadow beyond their interaction. He is high maintenance, as is Zechs. Left to their own devices, even with the best of intentions, the relationship would be in trouble from the word go. They would hurt each other without meaning to. Unfortunately unavoidable, their personalities being what they are.” Duo scowled, playing with the tip of his braid. “What has this to do with me?” “You would be the force of gravity pulling them apart and yet keeping them together. You would be the binding element that could make the relationship work. The sun, moon and gravity all work in unison and are a force no one can deny. Sanc needs that. The ESUN needs it.” Duo closed his eyes against the sight of the nearing gates. “You don’t want much, do you?” “Just to see three of my friends happy and to see the smile on Relena’s face.” Heero worked his shoulders, carefully attempting to relieve some of the tension. “Chang’s being a bloody-minded idiot but I think he’s beginning to see the light of day. Zechs is ignoring the issue hoping it will go away and you are being so patient with the pair of them it makes my teeth ache. Something has to give soon or I will need to visit a dentist.” Duo blinked and resisted the urge to smirk. This was so unlike the Heero of old. They had all grown up in the intervening years and somewhere along the line Heero had grown a personality. He rather liked it. End
