Intentions “He’s been around a lot longer than we have; seen a lot more of life.” Duo murmured. “He is not without his store of wisdom.” They remained seated, neither seeming inclined to move. The King must be woken, but for the moment they needed to digest the information they had been given. “He will assist in the courtship.” Wu Fei rubbed a hand absently over the arm of his chair. “He recommends we… join… together.” “Yeah, I’m surprised. I would have expected him to tell us to get down to basics and sort ourselves out.” “He did… after a fashion.” Wu Fei murmured. “He informed us in that genteel manner of his, he doubts on our own we are capable of handling Milliardo.” Duo half turned in his seat to face the bed before turning back to look into the flames. That was, indeed, what Pagan had implied. It suggested family life with the King would be far from boring, not that he had ever found life to be boring, of course. He had been too busy surviving to be bored. “What do you think?” Wu Fei considered the question in silence for a few minutes before standing and turning to face Duo who, after a moment, stood up and waited. “I believe it wise to listen to the wisdom of those who have seen more of life than I. It is wisdom to listen to the voice of family. I lost my family a long time before I lost my home colony. My thoughts did not venture along the same path as my Elders and to this day I think they chose… unwisely. In the matter of courting a King one should listen to the wisdom of one who is older and wiser. He did not forbid us to court Milliardo. He has not turned us aside, but instead offers to assist us. I believe he has the best interests of Milliardo at heart. A content sovereign would be a better ruler than a discontent man whose days are filled with lonely repetition.” Duo sighed softly. “Chang Wu Fei.” “Yes?” “There is not going to be a formal binding contract between us; in this situation there can’t be and I acknowledge it. I would like a clear understanding of where we stand though.” “I am interested in knowing you better, not as a former colleague from the war, but in a more… social manner.” “I believe in calling a spade a spade and I have no fine words. I say what I think.” Duo straightened his spine. “I have every intention of following through on the feelings I have for you and Zechs. I know you are interested in him and have been for a long time, possibly as long as I have been interested in you. I want to pursue a courtship between the three of us and see where it takes us. Hopefully it will lead to us forming a family of our own.”
