More 00 for 0TP...
Original No True Pair post can be found here.
Title: Only This
Fandom: Gundam 00
Pairings/Characters: Setsuna F. Seiei. Tieria Erde + Lockon Stratos (Neil Dylandy), but can be read as gen along the lines of canon.
Rated: PG
Warnings: Um. Drama? Angst? (It’s from Setsuna’s perspective, so I don’t quite know how to label it.) Implied shounen-ai, but can be read as gen if you like.
Prompt: (Week 1) Setsuna F. Seiei and Tieria Erde: an unexpected act of kindness
Spoilers: Up to 2x02, Twin Drive.
Summary: There wasn’t much that Setsuna could do for Tieria. But he could do this.
Author's Notes: Um. I. Have no excuse. *is lame*
Disclaimer: All things Gundam 00 belong to Sunrise and Bandai, with major props to Kouga Yun-sensei for the beautiful character designs. Grassy only lays claim to the plot.
Setsuna knew and understood grief, to a certain extent. But most of his misery had been brought about by his own hands. (His hands, his choice, his belief. No matter that his God had betrayed him, had been nothing but a warmonger.)
So he let Tieria rage at him. Let him scream for not helping, for not saving Lockon Stratos. (Because Setsuna was guilty, no matter that Lockon had chosen his own destruction for a shot at revenge. So close, but close only mattered in horseshoes and hand grenades.)
And when, years later, Tieria cornered him and fumed over The Imposter with an all-too-familiar face that had stolen the name of Lockon Stratos, Setsuna stayed silent. Because Lockon had meant something to Tieria that Setsuna didn’t quite understand, but still respected. And there was no one else Tieria could blame, but Setsuna would let him vent. There was nothing more he could do for Tieria, but this.
The End
