It Ain't Easy (A Study of Jean Havoc)
It isn't fair.
He's the loyal underdog…
…the dedicated flunky…
… the fly-by-night special operative...
He's somewhat appreciated.
Mustang appreciates his ability to redirect paperwork.
Hawkeye certainly appreciates the good work he puts in.
(Sometimes.)
He's likeable.
Good natured.
Passably handsome.
(In a rugged I am a chronic macho smoker kind of way.)
So why does he have the worst luck with women?
It's like, like GOD has a personal vendetta with his love life.
There's always something or the other.
His looks…
His personality…
His lack of resemblance to certain people's elder siblings…
Just once, just once, he'd like to get a woman who actually likes him.
Argh.
It ain't easy being the flunky.
Being the flunky means that the boss gets all the girls.
The good ones.
And then the boss gets to dump them afterwards.
(He'd have liked to be able to dump a girl for once instead of the other way round.)
It ain't easy.
It really ain't easy.

A/N:
….because Havoc needs more lurve.
Hehehehe.
Tried a change of style this time round- a sort of short, annoyed paragraphing. Like he was listing off all the things in his head while pretending he was doing paperwork. I tend to do that too… so I empathize with Havoc. Awww.
NOT A POEM. IT IS PROSE. (no matter what the formatting looks like!)
As always, read and review! And leave a note about what character you guys want next.
