"Baby Series 1"

Sugary Sweetness


“What the hell was that for?”

Relena smiled sweetly and poured her own tea, settling back to watch as her brother glared at her and restored some order to his bangs. He looked positively sweet sitting there, confused by her actions and she decided she should hit him over the head with a cushion more often. Perhaps where those two idiotic ex-gundam pilots could see what a masterpiece bemusement made of him.

“It should have been with a two by four, but after your recent concussion that would not be advisable, so a cushion just has to do.” She was careful to maintain a sugar sweet tone and sipped her tea delicately.

He sighed and for a moment his hand rose in a gesture she had not seen him make for some time a mask behind which he could hide and it brought home to her there was still the matter of confused memories to be considered. That masking gesture was purely Zechs Marquise, not Milliardo Peacecraft.

“I never … intended … to go out into the blizzard.”

“Well, I know that. I’ve spent some time talking with the doctor and Pagan about memory flashbacks and possible triggers for them. It is something we are going to need to be alert for and we need to make advance preparations where we can.”

“I won’t know what will set them off or when it may be a danger, Relena. There is not all that much that can be done about it. I’ve been undergoing therapy for years and the psychologists I’ve spoken to say I am as cured as I will ever be of past insanities.”

“Oh, poosht. You were never insane to begin with. I won’t beat about the bush, Brother, and I promised Pagan I would be a lady and do a perfect impression of sugary sweetness, meaning I am not to swear at you or scream either so don’t look like that.” She pointedly refused to look at the cushion resting on her knee. “I will be a lady so long as you are sensible and see reason.”

“I do try to be sensible.”

“In most matters, yes, I agree, you can be sensible and quite accommodating but in one matter you have been rather obstinate and bullheaded and altogether unreasonable. That has to stop. We must face facts and if you are prone to flashbacks, and after this episode there can be no doubt of that, we need to take measures against a repeat occurrence. Now since we are both being so reasonable let us get straight to the point. I want you tagged, Milliardo. Computer security chips are safe and reliable and will allow us to locate you if you experience
another instance of flashback. I am chipped and you had Stephan chipped quickly enough on learning he was nearly abducted some months ago so be reasonable and agree to have yourself done.”

“No.”

The cushion whooped into the Kings face. “Yes!”
