Fringe Dweller Heero frowned at the alert tone, reaching out to activate the screen and wave aside the Security Guard. He recognized the sender's code as belonging to Chang and he was not concerned. Likely Chang was fishing to see if he was awake and inclined to assist him in running the King to ground. Heero smirked at that thought. As if he would dare assist Chang with Relena sitting beside him still chuckling and re running the acrobatics of earlier. She was getting entirely too much pleasure out of watching that in his view. "It's Chang." Relena stopped giggling and hit pause, leaving Wu Fei suspended mid air with a comic look on his face and focused her attention on Heero, curious to see what he would do to a request from Wu Fei to assist in catching her brother. She would never think to influence Heero; she was only too aware of the friendship which linked the pilots. Her brother had not been one of the original five and while they accepted him, he was still on the outside of their relationship. Milliardo, tragically, might always be a fringe dweller. There were some days she wondered if her brother would ever be comfortable with himself, and if the world would ever be comfortable with him. Was it possible the people of the world could accept what had been done by men now mostly dead, and cease to point the finger at the few who were still living? Would her brother ever forgive himself for doing what he had done? "What?" Relena smiled at Heero, realizing she had been staring at him... or rather through him. Arching an eyebrow she shrugged delicately. "What what?" Heero blinked. "I think you are beginning to spend too much time around Maxwell." Relena snickered and wafted a hand delicately in the air, the picture of innocence. "Why thank you! He's been working on commonizing me." "Commonizing? " "Oh yes! He's teaching me that `common touch' everyone is saying politicians lack. Says it will do me the world of good in winning the affections of the people." "...!" Heero looked horrified and the guards in the room could not quite contain their amused snorts and chuckles. The idea of the Princess Royal of Sanc behaving as directed by Duo Maxwell set all sorts of horrible visions dancing in Heero's head. He already knew Relena had a sense of humour, but if Duo infected her with his warped sensibilities. .. Nooooo! It just did not bear thinking about! Relena buried her face in her hands to stifle the laughter rising up inside her and after a few most unladylike snorts and squeaks gave up and laughed openly, pointing a quivering finger at Heero. "I know it's terribly cliché but you should see the look on your face! It's priceless!" Heero scowled, decidedly unamused and turned his attention to the computer. "One is not amused!" For some reason Heero could not understand, that sent Relena into gales of laughter.
