A Flick of the Wrist


"You would never believe it..."

"What? What would I never believe?"

"I never thought that my sister would ever even consider dating him!"

"Cathy is dating who?"

"... I don't want to talk about it."

"Is it that cute acrobat? Wow, he can certainly bend and twist his body, no wonder she wants to date him! And did you see him in that skin tight costume? He'll make her very happy."

"... He's not cute. And no, it's no Fritz."

"Fritz? That's his name? Interesting... so, he's not dating anyone."

"Um... I - I think he's got a wife in Barcelona and six kids!"

"Oh, well... it's that stable hand with the great butt?"

"Michael does not have a great butt, I can prov - I know he doesn't. And no, Cathy doesn't like him. Apparently he smells like elephants and she despises elephants."

"So... he's gay?"

"... No! nonono. Straight as a ruler!"

"Pity. So who is she dating?"

"You will never believe it."

"I thought we had already been through this?"

"Zechs."

"Oh..."

"You know, Relena's brother."

"Of course I know, I fought a war against him."

"I just don't believe it."

"That I fought a war against him? You were there! Have all your memories really came back?"

"Yes! I just... can't believe that my sister is have se - a relationship with him. He tried to destroy the world!"

"Trowa... we know several people who have. Some of them are our friends."

"But... he wore that retarded mask! He has no fashion sense! What chance do their children have against the combined weight of Cathy's and Zechs's fashion sense?"

"I don't think that matters. It's not like she is pregnant."

"Right?"

"I'm going to be an uncle!"

"You sound depressed."

"I'm too young!"

"The kid will look up to you."

"Hmm... I suppose..."

"Zechs and Cathy..."

"Stop shaking your head."

"It's just surprising, that's all. I wish them best in the future."

"Yeah."

"At least their children will be pretty."

"That is true."

"Huh... Zechs and Cathy. Heh, Trowa, if those two can get together, people will think that we could get together!"

"... yeah... they could, couldn't they?"
