770 : GW Dream
How very unusual for me-- I actually had a fandom dream. To make it doubly unusual, it had a consistent storyline! Well, kind of.
The Gundam pilots were on a mission, and Duo's role was to go first and sneak in, then leave them messages in certain garbage receptacles along the way. (Not that the GW pilots would ever resort to such insecure, crude measures for passing along messages.) Everybody was single at this point, as things like "relationships" weren't high on their priority list when it was still in the middle of the AC 195 war.
At night, the other pilots were following Duo's trail, and as a viewer of everything, I was reading a note from over one of their shoulders-- man, Duo's handwriting stinks. Almost as if he'd grown up on the streets. Oh, wait, he did. Ahahaha. ←@.@-
The first several messages were normal, pertaining to the mission. However, after several such notes, Duo started to get bored and write scribbly musings and crap. It was at this point that some part of my dreaming brain said, "Oh, so the name of this fic should be Stickies, because he's using sticky notes!" (Which he was-- they remained a recurring item throughout the dream.)
Somewhere along the way, Duo began getting tired, because his handwriting would get lazier, and stray comments about Heero would get thrown in here and there-- first just things about him as a soldier, then as a roommate, then personality traits, or Duo's perceptions thereof-- wondering how he could always be so intense, wishing he smiled more because he had too nice of a smile to keep it hidden away all of the time, how nice his hair always looked mussed whether or not he just woke up, how strong and sure he always was, etc.
Inevitably, these inserted ramblings began feeling less and less like curious observations and more and more like a crush, which Quatre teased an astonished, bemused Heero for. In their own way, Trowa and Wufei teased him-- it was like, one quiet, snarky, sidelong comment each.
Trowa had to leave for work then (O_O;;; He worked in some nice women's clothing boutique), and Wufei went off for a different part of the mission, so it was just Heero and Quatre reading along Duo's rambly, poorly-written notes to finish their part of the mission. The next message just after Wufei and Trowa were gone had an offhanded comment about Wufei liking Trowa, which is weird because I massively prefer 5x4 over 5x3. I've never really thought about 5x3 before, although I'm used to them being good friends in fics, so that was weird of my subconscious.
Then the dream skipped over to Duo visiting Trowa at the clothing boutique. The mission was over, and he and Heero and hooked up, and Trowa had just heard from Quatre about the part of the messages that Wufei liked him. When Duo showed up, he just dropped something off for Trowa and was leaving, but Trowa stopped him, looking uncharacteristically nervous. It wasn't like he was jittery and blatantly anxious, but his eyes were wide and unsure, and when he tried to speak, his words were hesitant and uncertain. He asked Duo, "wait, what's these about notes, and Wufei...?"
Since he was embarrassed that he'd gotten so tired and distracted and bored that he'd been writing such personal notes, and knew Wufei was going to come kick his ass any day now, Duo tried to just laugh it off and flee, but Trowa held him firm until admitted that yeah, Wufei had a crush on him, but please don't say anything about it to anyone because Duo didn't want to die, and if Wufei killed Duo, Heero would have to kill Wufei, and let's not get into that cycle. ^^;
The end of the dream after that had Trowa approaching Wufei meditating in what looked like an old, Japanese dojo, despite Wufei being Chinese. Wufei was hovering about a foot off the floor in the lotus position, meditating. (... Um.) When Trowa entered, even though he was dead silent, Wufei could feel his approach due to his meditative state, where he was aware of the air pressure in any part of the building. Trowa's disturbance in the pressure felt nervous, but not threatening, and Wufei just knew instinctively who the disturbance was, so he let Trowa come all the way up to him and put a hand on his shoulder. It was then that Wufei finally opened his eyes, but remained hovering still as he asked what Trowa had come for. Trowa quietly recounted how Quatre and Duo and told him that Wufei was interested in him, which made Wufei tense up. He tried to deny it without actually denying it, as he was too honourable to lie, but Trowa saw through that, turned him around-- which was weird, as he was still hovering-- and kissed him.
Then I woke up. It was still about 5:30, but I couldn't fall asleep again after that-- I just brought my alarm clock over and stuck it under the covers to muffle its sound, while leaving it on in case I did drift off again and sleep through when I was supposed to get up.
What the hell?! I didn't even get to see Heero and Duo kiss! The dream skimmed right past the couple I adore, and gave all the details of this pairing that I don't care about!
Anyway. The end.
