"Hn." I remark, keeping my voice emotionless. What else can I say?
"Who says that I need to be rescued?" Well, apparently I can say that… Wait, where did that come from, anyway? I hope I didn't hurt his feelings…
Although his tone doesn't change, I can see hurt in his eyes, even though I know he's trying to hide it from me. "Oi, sorry man, never thought of that… So, you like it here? Can't blame ya, nice place. Talk about luxurious. I bet there's a great cook, too."
I want to just pull my gun out and shoot myself; I've made him upset, after all the trouble I went through not to do just that when I wrote him that letter… Perfect Soldier, my butt. I've just managed to royally screw things up.
Oh gods, now I'm starting to think like Duo sounds… Things are getting to be worse than I thought!

~~~ "Who says that I need to be rescued?" Heero asks me. He doesn't sound annoyed or anything, just like his usual self, but…
Oh God, oh lord, oh gods and goddesses… I never even considered the possibility that he might not be unhappy here…
I know I can't take back my words, so instead I stammer out an apology, trying to fix my mistake as best as I can. What I say about Relena's place is all the truth; it looks great, like luxury defined, and I'm sure there is an absolutely great chef… But I still want to kick myself. How can I be so stupid sometimes? Okay, a lot of the time? ~~~
