the specifics of your request amuse me greatly , especially "Quatre written as if he is an actual man and not a pair of wibbling ovaries." I TOTALLY agree, with ALL of it, and really hope someone comes up with something good. I will personally add some bonus points if they have Quatre say "god damn it"
I've been reading a LOT of GW fic lately (lol hello 2001) and a lot of them keep having the same "problems" when it comes to what I like in a fic. They usually have Quatre acting like such a *girl* as opposed to a *boy* who's got a lot of power in his hands and is amazingly mature and refined for his age. HE PLAYS PIANO. HE PLAYS VIOLIN. HE'S A WEALTHY YOUNG MAN. THIS DOES NOT MAKE HIM A GIRL
( ... )
I haven't read a lot lately for mostly the same reason. I also love when a bit of realism is added. Don't forget that he drinks tea, which makes him female as well ^_~ you know I sometimes wonder if after a long day of work if there isn't something a little "stronger" in his tea/coffee heh. I've noticed that 1x2 is more frequent then 3x4. "Wufei being topped by Sally Po" I'm sorry I just had a series of mental images and need to go deal with a nose bleed. Although I do have a certain fondness for WuFei and Relena. since WuFei was raised as a scholar and potential ruler. another thing I noticed is most 3x4 are very seme vs uke as apposed to equals (yaaaaay switching!) though there was one short one.... ::goes hunting::
I prefer a more "canon" interpretation of the pairings in Gundam Wing and the side-stories. I get really clear vibes from the side mangas and the actual anime that 1x2 isn't exactly as plausible as some of the other pairings--certainly not as strongly suggested as Duo/Hilde or Heero/Relena. Honestly, I don't think I strongly ship 1x2 any more after having actually rewatched the series and reread the books. I'm not a massive hulking fan of 1xR but I really like Duo/Hilde. I ship Wufei with Sally in the same way--it's implied in the animes/mangas that he at least considers her to not suck at life like most other women and I kind of love the idea of them heading the Preventers after the war.
If not romantically involved, at least close friends.
And I definitely ship 3x4 because it's my total Gundam OTP right there. It's just...hard to get good "canon" pairings in fanfics because everyone was writing yaoi as opposed to het.
And I love Zechs/Noin so hardcore too. WHY DOESN'T MORE OF ZECHS/NOIN EXIST.
I wrote an untitled ficlet with you and your request in mind. It's not long, so forgive me but I will post it on here in the morning since my journal is f-locked.
