Life and Times of Teh Asuka

FINALLY AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA. this chapter was such a GIGANTIC PAIN to write and I don't get why.

8k long. Contains some public embarrassment, so if that bothers you here's your heads-up.

Person/wolf pairs are Duo (motor about to overload)/Killer (rusting car carcass on hot pavement), Trowa/Coyote, Wufei/Glenfiddich (stag and snow), and Heero (cordite and nitroglycerin and blood)/Mary(summer wind through the city).

Relevant OCs: Wangai/Shark (fish blood and storm at sea) and Rosca/Folha (lathering horse in harness)

--

"Can't go -- haring off -- Maxwell -- he says," Duo grunted, "That asshole -- then he goes--"

Bite him, Killer agreed as he attacked an obstacle with vengeful enthusiasm.

"Chang -- fucking -- hate you!"

The wolfless trainees he was passing on the track stared at him. Who cared! Duo sped up some more. He wished Wufei and Glen were in range to hear him rant at them -- or listening, either or, he couldn't tell if they were close or not. Trowa and Coyote were definitely close enough, and radiating smug and nothing else.

"That's your twelfth lap, Maxwell!" Wangai threw as he passed her again. Exasperation and worry flicked through from her (ten laps a day two too many/going too fast angry), almost fainter than Coyote even though he and Trowa were probably all the way across the Preventers compound.

"I don't care!" he yelled back. He should probably tone down the histrionics some, but --

Killer passed Shark with barely a glance. He was running to find summer-wind-in-the-city and who cared about storm at sea and fish blood, she was close close waiting and if they ran really fast they could maybe go find her??

Duo didn't have the heart to explain to him that no matter how fast they ran they still wouldn't get any free time to go find Mary! before noon at best.

It did spend some superfluous adrenaline, though. Duo couldn't help it, it was pavlovian at this point. Whenever Heero appeared in his life, military coups and prison breaks followed, it was just the way it was. He could tell this time was different -- why was Heero coming in person to the Preventers, he was a solo agent down to the bone, the quintessential lone wolf --

Not alone? Got summer-wind-in-the-city.

So I guess they're a two-wolf pack then. Hah.

it's a bit short for a whole chapter but i've been sitting on it and cackling and i can't anymore.

So likely once it goes on AO3 it'll have another scene or two after that, but they're not really written yet so i'll post them separately here when they are i guess. >_> see it as an almost 3 k long sneak preview. ♥

( It wasn't the closest bar to the Preventers headquarters -- and the other one did see a somewhat regular stream of wolfless agents. It wasn't the closest, but it was big enough inside to allow tables to spread out a bit, and there was a small backyard with an old, gnarled tree the owner didn't mind letting the wolves piss all over and struggling wild grass they were allowed to dig up and roll on. )

I'mma cut it in half for AO3 I think cause it's over 27 pages long in Word, but since it's all written out, you guys get everything today. I'm kind and loving that way.

There's a chatlog at the start, and i THINK you can skip it if you hate reading homestuck-style chatlogs (mea culpa they're just so funny to write) but it does give some mood/background. Also, Hilde is funny and needs more screentime ok. ;^;

Hasn't been thoroughly betaread yet so if you catch something I'll be glad to hear it, but don't feel like you have to bother either, I'll probably manage to sit on one of my friends and make them beta it for me eventually.

Duo doesn't want to join the Preventers, thankyouverymuch. Preserving the peace is all well and good but he likes answering to no one but himself, and like hell he wants to buddy up to people he and Killer used to stand against, back during the war.

Only the Preventers have a pack, and his brother-wolf doesn't, never has, deserves to, and maybe a junkyard dog isn't all a warrior wolf should be.

~700 words.

( He woke in the middle of the night to a man in white coat leaning over him, hand stretched out toward his shoulder. )

I know it's only been a few hours since I posted the first five ficlets but Scythe and Wing got REALLY demanding. And now that I have it written, ehh. *cough*

3 200 words of Duo and Heero and their dragons. Some of it might rest a bit much on knowledge of GW canon, I can't tell. ~__~ please ask if you've got an issue.

( There was a dragon in his sea, and it was drowning. )

Story: Fusion between Gundam Wing and the Temeraire books by Naomi Novik, which are about the Napoleonic war, in a world where dragons are sentient, have always existed, and are so common that humans breed them and use them in battle. Dragons raised by humans tend to forge a strong bond with the person taking care of them when they come out of the shell.
