More from the Gundam Wing fandom flashback, now at 26,000 words:
Heero made a long vid call that afternoon – Quatre told me, I didn’t go snooping through his logs, though I would’ve if he hadn’t said – and then I guess all of Relena’s machinery and influence swung into action, ‘cos he didn’t even stay the night. He packed up those new clothes Quatre gave him and I was there to wave him off with a cheery grin when the car came. “Hey, and don’t forget to keep in touch!”
“I will,” he said, and then the door pulled shut with a thunk.
I figured most likely he wouldn’t. I just didn’t see him calling me up to make chit-chat about the weather.
Once I knew he was leaving, I was kinda glad he didn't hang around. The end of the war's one hell of a time to discover you're really a coward, huh?
