"Serena, Serena! What are were going to do today?!" were the first words to greet Duo as he walked into the dorm. Glancing around at the room trying to spot where the voices were coming from, he entered the kitchen to see who he presumed to be Rini, jumping up and down behind Serena who was cooking something. The small girl was no taller than Serena's mid thigh, what shocked Duo was the fact that she had pink hair and it seemed natural. Then again some of the people that Serena knew had natural but odd hair colours.
Serena glanced over at him from her location at the stove, smiled slightly as she turned to get something out of the fridge. Rini followed right after her still jumping up and down happily. Duo couldn't help but smile at the picture the two made.
"Rini we're probably going to go shopping for a while then out to eat somewhere." Serena told her as she gave Rini a cookie before turning back to the stove.
"So are you going to introduce me or am I just going to have to stand here all day?" Duo asked as he smiled. Rini jumped at the sound of his voice and took refuge behind Serena's legs, gripping onto the jean Serena wore, tightly.
"What's he doing in here?" Rini asked as she looked up at Serena shakily. Serena bent around, showing how flexible she was, as she detached Rini and picked her up.
"Rini that's my roommate Duo. He won't hurt you, besides if he does. I'll kill him." Serena told her as the last threat held promise.
"Is he a Gundam Pilot too?" Rini asked as she looked between Serena and Duo.
"Yup kiddo." Duo told her with a smile. Rini smiled back at him as she jumped out of Serena's arms and marched right up to Duo.
"Which one do you pilot?" Rini asked as she looked up at him almost falling over in the process.
"DeathScythe Hell." Duo told her as he started setting plates for breakfast.
"Ohh, that's one of my favorites." Rini told him as she ran over to get some glasses from Serena.
"So what one's your favorite then?" Duo asked taking the cups from her.
"Shadow and Chaos. Since both of them have saved me before from different things." Rini told him as she looked over at Serena. Serena smiled down at the little girl before craking her knuckles and turning back to finish the last of the pancakes, eggs, and bacon.
"Does she have a favorite order or something?" Duo asked Serena as she brought over a pan filled with eggs.
"If I remember correctly, yes. But I couldn't tell you since she keeps changing the order after the top three." Serena told him as she went back to bring over three different plates of pancakes. "Blueberry for Rini, chocolate chip for you, and plain for me."
"You didn't have to make three different batches." Duo told her as he took the plate she handed him.
"I've been up since six." Serena shrugged as she handed Rini the plate of bacon to set on the table.
"Alright you sit." Duo ordered as he pushed her into her chair. Serena glared at him causing Rini to giggle at them. "Drinks anyone?"
"Milk please." Rini told him sweetly as he poured her drink then walked over to the coffee machine to get two cups. "Why didn't you hit him?"
"Because he's not Darien." Serena told the young girl with a smile.
"Yeah well I guess that's a good thing." Rini laughed as Duo handed Serena a cup before sitting down at his chair.
"Rini that's a very good thing." Serena told the child as she wrapped her hands around her coffee cup. "A very good thing."

"Serena can we go to the park?" Rini asked as she looked up at Serena, her cinnamon eyes shining in the sunlight. Serena nodded as she turned on an off road to reach one of the parks. Parking the car she helped Rini out of her seat before pocketing her keys.
Rini smiled as she ran ahead of Serena, though she didn't run to far ahead. Serena walked at a slow jog like pace to keep up with Rini. Serena sprinted up to Rini when she noticed that Rini stop in her tracks. Looking in the same direction Rini was looking she smiled. Rini had just spotted the infamous pilots.
"He looks mean." Rini told Serena as she took hold of Serena's hand as they walked towards the playground. Serena just shook her head as she sat under the shade of a cheery tree to watch Rini.
"Hey." The low voice of a man whispered from behind Serena. Serena whirled around to see who was behind her and smirked at Duo's razzled look.
"So, besides the fact that Rini now thinks Trowa looks mean, what are you guys doing here?" Serena asked as she saw Duo's eyes light up in laughter.
"She thinks Trowa looks mean?" Duo laughed as he fell to the ground next to her. "Hell, Trowa's an angel compaired to Wu-Man and He-Man. Sure that one eye glare thing can scared the hell out of some people."
"I'm sure they would love that comparison." Serena smiled as she turned to watch Rini. "You know their glaring at you."
"How do you know this?" Duo asked as he turned around to see that Heero and Wufei were infact glaring at him.
"I always know when someone's looking in my direction." Serena told him emotionlessly.
