Snapshots of the Gundam Wing Pilots
by elana-chan
Snapshot: Wufei Chang
This is unjust! Nataku, I'm not worthy. What I have done dishonored your memory.
I love another man...who loves another...
[Wufei closes his eyes and falls asleep.]
Dream sequence: [Wufei walks on a clearing full of jasmine. He stares wide-eyed at the flowers then he feels someone behind him.]
#Zhang fu...#
Meiran?!
[Meiran looks at him with her usual somber expression.]
#We meet again, Chang Wufei.#
Have you come back to haunt me, wo de qu-zi? Have you come to taunt me of my weakness? My failure? Why do you appear in my dreams now, Meiran? Why?
#I came not to do those things, Wufei. I came because you called me. The Meiran inside you responded to your call. And I am her.#
I didn't call for you... I only want to ask for your forgiveness, Meiran. The past. The present. Everything I've—
#Hush. I know them all, Wufei. I live inside you. In your memories. In your heart. You don't dishonor my memory, Wufei.#
How could you say that?! I've sworn off al weaknesses. I've failed you once because of those weaknesses. Now... I failed you again...
[There is a pause then Meiran's soft laughter fills the silence.]
You've never laughed at anything I've said before!
# {smiles} Wo de zhang fu! You just can't listen to your heart once, ne? You didn't fail nor dishonor me, Wufei. You lived after the incident. You went one with your life. Became a Gundam pilot to make peace happen. {smiles softly} And most important of all, you let yourself love again.#
But he's—
#But Duo's male, a Gundam pilot and taken? {sighs} Wufei, love knows no boundaries. Though he might not love you, knowing that he is safe and happy is enough for you. I don't condemn you, Wufei. I know that loving him helped you to remain human. And I thank him for that. Don't worry, Wufei. I've already forgiven you a long time ago.#
[Meiran smiles softly and fades away as Wufei closes his eyes. In his sleep, he smiles slightly and utters something only a soul can hear.]
Xie xie, Meiran...
