Disclaimer: I do not own Danger Mouse (2015) or any canon characters. They are the property of their respective owners. I do own the mentioned Emma White.
Notes: It's about time that they told their fellow agents. Will it go well? Well...my previous fics have mentioned that Danger Mackerel and Danger Pelican aren't too keen on the idea of same-sex couples. What of the others though?
This contains Dangerfold (romantic pairing between Danger Mouse and Penfold) and Squawkenmoth (romantic pairing between Professor Squawkencluck and Danger Moth), so there is the usual slash and fem-slash warning. There is also mild homophobia, though no slurs or anything like that.
I hope you enjoy this!
(Linebreaks hate me so I will use DPSD.)

Look, I refuse to do it if they're not going to even be in it this time! I can't introduce someone who's not there!
They are this time. In fact, they have a big role here.
Do they? Alright, fine! Ahem! London, home of Big Mike's Pie Stand and Buckingham Palace. Home, too, of the Danger Agency, for whom our heroes Danger Mouse and Penfold work! As we go to the building cleverly disguised as a pillar-box, one can only wonder what will happen this time...even me! No, I mean it, Ms. Writer only gave me my lines, not the whole script! Wait, why are we zooming in to Danger Hedgehog's quarters?

Danger Hedgehog slicked back his spikes and checked how he looked in the mirror. He nodded in satisfaction before sniffing his armpits. Hm, not offensive to her nose, just my usual scent. Once again satisfied, he puffed onto his palm and sniffed it. Breath smells fine too. His final checks were complete. He picked up the small bouquet of daisies and made his way out of his quarters. He had a certain someone to find.

Danger Moth had just emerged from her quarters when she saw the hedgehog approaching. "Good morning, Danger Hedgehog!"
"Mornin', Danger Moth!" he greeted with a smile. He stood before her, his cheeks turning a light red. "Um..th-there's something I want to tell you."
"Hm? Well, sure, go ahead!"
"I...erm..." He thrust out the bouquet. "I have a crush on you! Will you go out with me?"
Her eyes widened. "Oh...I..."
He very quickly realised he was about to hear a rejection to his proposal. "N-Never mind. Um...keep the flowers anyway."
"Danger Hedgehog...I must admit I'm surprised. How long...?"
"Since our training days. But, I wanted to wait until I was strong enough to tell you. I guess it didn't matter."
"I'm very sorry I can't reciprocate your feelings...I'm already spoken for. But, I'm glad you felt you could tell me. I'd still like for us to be friends though?"
"Oh. Sure. Friends sounds better than nothing, at least. You can still have the flowers."
She accepted them.
"But, we can only date within the agency. So, who...?"
"I...can't say for now. In time, I can. But, not now."
"Alright. Well, I'm going to head to the gym for now. I'll see you later."
"Are you alright?"
"I'll be fine. Thanks for at least hearing me out." He turned and left.
Danger Moth looked down at the bouquet in her hands. Though we wanted to keep it a secret for the sake of our agency's dynamics, I don't think any of us could've predicted this happening. Maybe...maybe we need to come out with it after all... She turned back into her room, finding a vase for the daisies.

"Danger Pelican, I'm flattered, really. But, I'm afraid I can't say I feel the same. I'm already taken."
Danger Pelican sighed. "I see. It's DM, isn't it?"
Her eyes widened behind her spectacles. "What? No! No, it's not him! He's much more like a brother who drives me crazy most of the time."
"Oh. Then, you're with another agent. Okay. Well, I'll see you next time." He turned to leave just as Danger Moth flittered through the doors. "Hello, Danger Moth." He didn't wait for her response, just made his way out of the laboratory.
Danger Moth looked to her girlfriend. "Has something happened?"
Professor Squawkencluck nodded. "Danger Pelican had just admitted he has feelings for me, but I had to turn him down."
"Funny. I just experienced that with Danger Hedgehog. We'll need to speak with DM and Penfold."
"You're saying..."
"I think it's time we shared our secret."
