Date to The Dance
Tumblr media
Pairing: Calvin Maxwell x Male Reader Genre: Fluff
Y/n stood at the top of a ladder as he fixed the sign hanging over the cafeteria of Summer Cove High. He and his friend, Leah, had agreed to help Hayley organise the annual Summer Cove High Senior Dance. “So…” Leah excitedly started as Y/n climbed down the ladder. “Who are you taking to the dance tonight?” she eagerly asked. “My TV. And you wanna know what I’m wearing? My couch.” Y/n laughed which stopped quickly once he noticed the serious face that crossed Leah’s face.
“I’m not going because I have nothing to wear and I have no one to go with.” Y/n answered, as they walked over to the food truck to order lunch. “You can’t not go to our senior dance. It’s an important part of any high school experience.” Leah exaggerated.
“Did you just use a double-negative?”
“Don’t change the subject.”
“Hey guys! I just wanted to say great job on the sign.” Hayley complimented, joining the duo that had just reached the front of the line.
“Thank you, Hayley. Do you mind convincing my friend here how he will forever regret skipping our Senior Dance tonight?” Leah snidely asked, giving Y/n a cheeky look who returned the look with a glare. “You don’t actually plan on skipping, do you?” Hayley asked, shifting her gaze to Y/n. “Well, I have no date and no suit, and the dance is less than 7 hours.” Y/n explained as he got his lunch and moved to sit at a table.
“We can go shopping after school for a suit.” Hayley suggested.
“And for a date, you could just ask Calvin.” Leah smirked causing Y/n to roll his eyes and Hayley’s face to twist in confusion.
“Why Calvin?” she asked curiously. “It doesn’t matter.” Y/n answered shortly. “Y/n has a crush on him.” Leah revealed, getting a weak punch from her friend. “You should definitely ask him.” Hayley excitedly agreed, knowing something that the duo didn’t. “How about this, we’ll find a suit after school and then we’ll figure the date thing out later?” Y/n proposed to the two girls.
Y/n, Leah, Hayley and her friends were now wandering around town looking for dress shops. Y/n would mainly talk to Leah or Hayley while occasionally sneaking glances at the dirty blonde boy. “You know instead of looking him, you could just talk to him.” Leah whispered, catching Y/n’s glances. The boy rolled his eyes before he saw a suit in the window display of a shop and walked towards it, admiring the suit. “That would look amazing on you.” A voice complimented capturing Y/n’s attention, where next to him stood Calvin.
“Really?” Y/n curiously asked, unable to keep the small smile from forming on his face. Suddenly, Kudabots were beamed down from the sky landing on the street causing panic across the street. Y/n felt arms wrap around him before being pulled to the ground dodging a energy beam that had been directed to them. Y/n connected eyes with his protector, Calvin, as they moved to hide behind a car. “Y/n, take Leah and get to safety. I need to find my friends.” Calvin instructed, while cupping Y/n’s face, looking him in the eyes. Y/n nervously nodded his head as he turned to see Leah hiding behind a car.
The duo escaped the danger-filled area heading toward Leah’s home to fetch her things before moving to Y/n’s home to get ready. Upon entering his room, they noticed a suit with a note sitting on the bed. Y/n picked up the note and read it: Be my date for the dance tonight? – Calvin. Y/n took the suit out of its cover and noticed it was the one he was admiring earlier. He and Leah had gotten themselves ready before leaving for the dance as Leah’s date had picked them up.
They arrived at the dance as they admired their cafeteria that had been decorated for the dance. Y/n felt a tap on his shoulder and turned to see Calvin in a suit, with a single rose in his hand. “Hi.” Y/n greeted, with a smile. “Hi.” Calvin greeted back as he handed Y/n the rose. “So, about your offer? I would love to be your date.” Y/n accepted, as Calvin took his hand and they moved to the dance floor where they spent most of their night.
Slowly, the dance was coming to an end as Y/n had his head on Calvin’s chest and his hands in Calvin’s swaying to slow song that was playing. “There is a something I want to show you.” Calvin whispered to his date, enjoying the position they were in. Once the dance had come to an end, Calvin drove Y/n to a secluded area near the ribbon tree. They got out the car and sat on the hood of the car. “I found this place awhile ago when my friends and I saved the tree.” Calvin said as he wrapped his arm around Y/n.
“It’s beautiful, Calvin.” Y/n whispered as he admired the stars twinkling in the night sky, the sound of nature, and the moon. “It is but my view is better.” Calvin agreed, causing Y/n to look at him to notice that Calvin was looking at him causing him to blush. Their eyes connected before Calvin leaned in and pressed a sweet kiss on Y/n’s lips who kissed back. They spent the rest of the night gazing at the stars, in each other’s arms.

Duo x male reader
a/n: oh gods this is so. anyways this was meant for day thirteen of the @gundam-wing-pride event but certain circumstances have caused me to be unable to post in time for it. the tears prompt was kept in mind for this, i hope it suffices.
word count: 2,059
summary: horrific battles never made you cry, so how did a joke from Duo manage to do it?
warnings: reader is in an active war at first, brief mentions of reader becoming deaf to loud sounds after the battle, reader has a very dry way of thinking, i haven't seen the entirety of the show in ages so i think my timeline is a little messed up
reader pronouns: he/him but comes off as gn
Tumblr media
How’d you end up here?
You’d woken up to the extremely jarring sounds of the space station’s evacuation alarms. Considering the immediate panicking masses of people that then flooded the streets, it wasn’t the best way to wake up. Especially when you factor in that your first evacuation drill since the ‘safe space’ had been rebuilt, relocated and refortified was supposed to happen next week. Though to be fair, there were absolutely no signs that you knew of that would signal a a war erupting on your colony.
Honestly? You never were impressed by the Gundams. All you knew about them was that they were starting a war with what a few of the colonies had begun to call the “colony rebels.” The White Fang. Maybe the White Fang had started the war, but you could care less. No matter who’d started this, the colonies- your colony- was caught in the crossfires now.
And it wasn’t like you could trust the Gundams, either. It wasn’t that long ago that Gundam Pilot 04 almost blew up an entire colony because their father had been killed. If that was how the Gundams handled personal loss, your colony could only speculate on the ways they’d deal with the political difficulties of a war. And unsurprisingly, it turned out that they handled it absolutely terribly.
The scariest part was the absolute absurdness of the whole war. Two sides that claimed to speak for the colonies. The White Fang pressed attention on the colonies, while the Gundams remained an absolute mystery. Plus, the individual power struggles claiming the colonies, the Treize Faction war against Oz that was reportedly occuring back on Earth... everybody was misinformed about absolutely all of it, and the best you could do was try to make sense of the chaos unfolding and hope it never touched your poor colony.
But wishes don’t always come true. And certainly never the wishes you make.
Like the wish you’d been repeating back to yourself for the last hour- to be able to come out of this unscathed. Your arm had some thoughts on that.
As it turns out, trying to run through an active warzone to the safe space you didn’t know the location of was extremely dangerous. So dangerous that your arm had been hit with a stray bullet. Right now the main dangers were the footsoldiers firing at each other, but not that far off in the distance you could see two of the Gundams fighting a swarm of Taruses. The fact that they weren’t close was anything but comforting, since you’d seen the speed of the Gundams before on T.V.
Oh.
“Hey- get outta the way! Ya try’na get killed?” A White Fang footsoldier shoved you to the side, presumably trying to help. Instead you stumbled facedown into a very large pile of scrap metal. Which very much hurt your arm and effectively trapped your leg as well.
Fun. “The fuck kinda horror movie is this?” You muttered to yourself. Of course, of course you ran directly into the fray. Because of COURSE that was safer than the opposite direction (which in all fairness had been covered in sharp-looking rubble). That’s fine. You could work with this. What did your uncle usually tell you- take inventory in terms of crises?
You hadn’t brought a backpack with you, so, all you could take inventory on was what was in your pockets. One elastic, a single outdated coin, and fuzz. Plus, a bleeding arm and the bullet you figured was still in there, a possibly twisted and hopefully not broken foot, ringing in your ears... and the clothes on your back. Ok.
So this is how you die? Fine. That’s fucking fine. You had plenty to live for, but fine. Who cares?
“Woah-hoh, what the hell? Hey- hey handsome, you awake?”
A very neon green light pierced your consciousness. Out of habit, you tried to raise your arm to block it out- and then an even more painful, piercing feeling jolted through your whole body. “Ahh-huah- ‘m. ‘m awake now. Ohhh gods. Yeah. ‘m- yeah. Fuck. Who’re you and are you going to help me or kill me?”
“Kill you? Man, I might be the god of Death and all but I’m not going to kill you! You related to Heero or somethin’?”
“Don’t know- ow- who the fuck that is. What’s up with that green light shit> ‘M gonna be blinded if I open my eyes.”
And there the light went. Nice. If this guy didn’t kill you, you might actually survive. Sans your arm. Nobody on your colony could help your arm. You figured that life would be interesting from now on. “Great, thanks man. Fuuuuck. You- you see my arm? Yeah- I’m taking your silence as a yeah. This bitch’s fucked and moving at all is very very painful. So hey random stranger. You strong enough to carry me to the nearest amputator?”
Apparently you were just being dramatic. Your arm would 100% be still attached and your foot would survive. Your ears were… fine. After waking up in a hospital on an entirely different colony station, you learned that apparently, there exists a kind of deaf in which it was hard to hear things that were too loud. Which. You now had.
No more concerts. Meh.
The most jarring of everything was when you discovered that a) you were likely to have either trauma or ptsd and b) the guy that carried you to the hospital in his Gundam- was a Gundam Pilot. 02. Duo Maxwell. He’d brought you to Colony 14 Blue and was now reportedly “chillin’ outside until you get discharged.” with the promise that he’d bring you to the Peacemillion afterwards.
Oh. And almost everybody you knew closely had “likely” passed away in the attack. The therapy for that was going to be interesting when you consider that nobody of your family was on the colony at the time of the attack. Honestly the way they were pressing for you to be evaled made it feel like they were planning to make an example out of your supposedly poor mental state. Unsurprisingly the hospital was being run by the White Fang.
Discharge went quickly. The ride back to Duo’s Deathscythe went quickly. The ride in Duo’s Deathscythe went far, far too slowly. And adjusting to life on the Peacemillion went poorly.
Every now and again, Duo would look for you and, if he hadn’t immediately come from a fight (he passed out on your carpet once due to blood loss after being in a gunfight. Zechs was less than appreciative.), he’d bring you to the nearest colony. Being able to enjoy a day out on occasion was a rarity you usually only got to experience with Duo.
“Ooooi, Duo. Check these out. Tell me these aren’t the coolest gloves you’ve ever seen.” You held up some black fingerless gloves for him to inspect. He’d brought you to a new colony, where apparently a special holiday (complete with fun sales) was happening. Admittedly, some of the people on this station were giving you and Duo some especially strange looks whenever Duo would tug on your shirt or grab your hand to get your attention but like. Fuck them.
“Hey, those look pretty awesome!” he grinned and bounced over, snatching the gloves from your hands to look for a price tag. “To steal or not to steal, that is the question.”
You raised an eyebrow. So maybe the crush you’d developed on this overgrown child of a thief was growing. So what? It’s just a crush. Everything’s going to be fine. “Is the price tag expensive or something?”
Duo shook his head. “Exact opposite. There isn’t one.”
“Let’s just leave ten gilla and bolt, then.”
“...wicked.”
Normally the rides back home were silent and awkward, but after the rather exciting day you’d had, you were feeling especially chatty. Which wasn’t to say that there weren’t still awkward breaks in the conversation. It was quiet, sure, but a lot of things had been quiet lately. Being deaf to louder things tended to do that to a person.
Duo drew you out of your thoughts with another tug on your sleeve and pressed one of the gloves into your hand. “Here. Figured we’d both look badass with just one glove. Plus we match!” He held up his gloved left hand with an air of confidence. He wasn’t wrong, honestly. Wearing his braid the way he did, he already cut an impressive figure, but the gloves really sold the look.
You pulled on the glove he gave you, flexing your fingers to test it’s flexibility. After all, if you couldn’t engage in you and Duo’s elaborate handshake, you might have to ditch the glove altogether. Luckily the glove fit you well- functionality and style alike. Ten gilla spent well.
“Not bad. Y’think Zechs’ll get jealous?” Duo laughed at the idea.
“Doubtful, doesn’t he have Noin to get him cool stuff? Plus, I think his mask and that hair are defining accessories, what else does he need?”
You shrugged. “What gay wouldn’t love these? ‘M already enjoying mine ‘nd yours look more worn in than mine do. Solid fuckin’ proof right there.” Not like you could confirm or deny that Duo was gay. Honestly, you didn’t really care for his specific labels, but Zechs was definitely gay so it just helped further the joke. With his demeanor and his lesbian best friend? Could the flags get any gayer.
“More like pansexual on my account. Good to know your take on gender preference though. This mean I’m allowed to openly flirt with you now?” He leaned back into his seat, throwing his feet up onto the table in front of you and resting his head in his hands.
You raised an eyebrow. “Only if you promise not to ‘no homo’ me afterwards.” Duo pretended to fall backwards, clutching at the nonexistent pearls and acting offended. You two giggled when Sally came in from the cockpit to assure herself that somebody hadn’t just gotten a concussion. To which Duo immediately pretended to have a head wound of some sorts (you suspected he was being purposely vague) in hopes of attaining the candy that Sally sometimes had on hand.
Once she left (leaving you and Duo with strong warnings against fooling around more, lest Duo’s “head injury” get worse; to which you had saluted and replied, “absolutely no promises, ma’am!”) you shared a look with the brunette and tried to keep from dissolving into a fit of laughter. To your chagrin, it was a fail. You were laughing so hard that your stomach was starting to genuinely hurt. Duo was doubled over on the ground, wheezing unintelligible words and trying to hand you the lollipop that Sally gave him.
By the time you had managed to calm down and breathe, Duo was getting into the chair beside you and clutching his side. “I think I pulled a muscle from laughing so hard.”
“Yeesh, ‘m crying from laughin’ so much. Aah, this is what y’do to me.” You joked, wiping away tears from the corners of your eyes.
“Y’know, I don’t think I’ve ever seen you cry before,” Duo paused to think. “like, at all! Now that I think about it, didja even cry when I rescued you?” You shrugged again. The battlefield was pretty terrifying and if you hadn’t found it in you to cry from fear… well, you were feeling a lot of emotions during the whole ordeal. Who could really blame you? “Pretty tough that a fuckin battle didn’t even make you cry. Hey- my bit musta been pretty damn good to make you shed a tear!”
“Yeah, don’t let it get to y’head. ‘S just because ‘m crushin on you.” You mentioned casually, testing the waters.
“Full homo?”
“Full homo.”
Well, would you look at that. Now Duo was crying. What was with you two and tears today?
BONUS:
“You’re so cheesy.” You muttered to Duo, who was proudly holding up your guys’s fingerless gloves- which he had sewn a rainbow patch onto the back of.
He smiled, tugging your glove onto your hand. “Mhm. You love it though.”
Sighing, you returned the favour and pulled his glove onto his right hand. “You’re right. I love it. I love you.”

If you said the word "brother" to Duo Maxwell, he'd think of the other pilots.
If you said, "no, your long-lost brother" to Duo Maxwell, he'd think of Solo and be very confused.
If you said, "no, your twin brother you were separated from at birth, and he's now working with the Preventers as a lawyer" to Duo Maxwell, he would go and punch his doppelganger.
Duo Maxwell isn't good at dealing with things, but unfortunately this particular thing isn't going to go away that easily.

Note: I am taking wild liberties with Irish lore. 
“I sorry,” Duo said, genuinely sorry he couldn’t give them what they were asking for, “but I don’t speak Banshee.  I barely speak fucking proper Earth English and fuck does that piss folk off sometimes. Why can’t I just kill him? He can’t fuck Rey if he’s dead.”

Note: I’m doing Google’s CSSI this summer and one of the cool things they gave us was like an hour long lecture by Dr. Adia Gooden on unconditional self-worth. So that’s where the good advice comes from in this chapter. Link at the bottom. 
Fingers on his forehead, thumbs on his jawbones, Duo applied pressure and tried to force back the confusion and irritation. For one thing, he was very, very tired of being outside of his body. This shit wasn’t supposed to happen. It wasn’t supposed to be real, but there he lay on the hearth, hair undone like some maiden in a story with the defense rating of an unattended pastry.

This Week in Gundam Wing June 28 - 4 July 2020
Here’s this week’s roundup!

~Mod Hel PS. So, I’m really bad at checking my email... I really need to get better at it. Some of these (which I’m sure will be new to a lot of you) are from long before this last week... whoops.

Five dates with Mister Handsome https://wingqueero.tumblr.com/post/622383229580771328/five-dates-with-mister-handsome
1xReader (gender unspecified)
reader-insert, second person POV, fluff, romance
He was sinfully good looking and he had agreed to five dates with an idiotic drunk who claimed one single kiss was worth five dates. You couldn’t help but wonder why.

Emergence (Ch. 11) https://archiveofourown.org/works/13322880/chapters/60710743
Duo Maxwell/Heero Yuy
Duo Maxwell, Heero Yuy, Quatre Raberba Winner, Trowa Barton, Chang Wufei, Sally Po
Crossovers & Fandom Fusions, borrowers fusion but don't call them borrowers, disturbing themes like people trafficking from the bad guys, Size Difference, Will probably be a series, alternate canon events, Macro/Micro
When the war ended, things went a little strange. First, Duo vanished after never having let them see him in person. Then, years later, a tiny race of people are discovered. And that's just the start of things.
Fun Curses with Catboys https://archiveofourown.org/works/25047898
Chang Wufei/Duo Maxwell
Chang Wufei, Duo Maxwell
magic transformation, Size Difference, catboy, Anal Sex, Post-Canon, Magic, wufei's a wizard, thar be porn
When Wufei leaves the Preventers, Duo goes snooping and finds out some things about his favorite (crush) loner. Like his hobbies in gardening, rare book collecting, and… magic? Probably shouldn’t have touched that, Duo. Good thing it’s a fun curse, and there’s a sexy wizard around to help out.

Strangers (Ch. 6) https://archiveofourown.org/works/24357013/chapters/60473569
Chang Wufei/Duo Maxwell, Background Quatre x Relena, Background Heero x Trowa - Character
OC - Oliver McGann
Long Lost Twins, this was meant to be hijinks but then I got reminded these boys have Issues, Pining, Duo is a stressed-out jerk who needs a holiday, Post-EW, Frozen Teardrop can do one, sex in later chapters because this is me who are we kidding
If you said the word "brother" to Duo Maxwell, he'd think of the other pilots.
If you said, "no, your long-lost brother" to Duo Maxwell, he'd think of Solo and be very confused.
If you said, "no, your twin brother you were separated from at birth, and he's now working with the Preventers as a lawyer" to Duo Maxwell, he would go and punch his doppelganger.
Duo Maxwell isn't good at dealing with things, but unfortunately this particular thing isn't going to go away that easily.

“Listen, I can’t possibly imagine what it’s like to be you. You never had a childhood. And you never had a father—” 
“No,” Heero shook his head. “I didn’t. I trained to fight, to kill from…as far back as I can remember.” The visible side of his mouth, from Aidan’s vantage point, turned down.  
“It’s why,” he paused and picked up a wrench from the open drawer. “It’s why sometimes...I’m, I’m at a total loss…” He dropped the hand holding the wrench to his side. Aidan could see his knuckles change color where he throttled the metal implement.  
“Your mom is so much, better at these things… At being there for you.”

Beneath: All Those Sounds https://duointherain.tumblr.com/post/622765434690781184/beneath-all-those-sounds-11
Notes: The boys are 35. They are married and they live in Seattle. Heero is a physician and a research scientist. Duo is a stay at home dad and a best selling novelist. They have twins who are spending the holiday with their grandmother Maureen and their godmothers, Rey and Precious. 
It didn’t take much. Neither of them said anything. The fireworks exploded outside their house, somewhere down by the water, far enough away that it was just a soft little press against the windows, against their souls.
Left on Read https://duointherain.tumblr.com/post/622787629087440896/fic-left-on-read-1
Duo Maxwell had decided, several years before, that he didn’t much like Preventers. At the time, he hadn’t know what he did like either. The therapist that Quatre had talked him into seeing had told him this was normal. Trauma would leave a person with little self, especially if the trauma had happened early and consistently. He had said quiet loudly, that day that he had plenty of self, everyone thought so! He was loud and brash and brave and drank too much, and had more lovers than she’d probably had in her whole boring life
@lemontrash​
The Morning Brightens https://wingqueero.tumblr.com/post/622390770875465728/the-morning-brightens
4x5

@lifeaftermeteor​
Pride https://wingqueero.tumblr.com/post/622300166716833793/pride
1x2
pride parade, slice of life, fluff, asexual duo
Duo has only recently come to terms with his asexuality. It took him a long time to understand it, and even longer to embrace it as inherently part of himself. To celebrate, Heero takes him out onto the streets for New York City’s Pride.
@relenaforpresident​
Just Love: Queerness in Gundam Wing https://wingqueero.tumblr.com/post/622292634598293504/just-love-queerness-in-gundam-wing
No ships but reference to both 1xR and 1x2
non-fiction, personal essay, self-reflection, gender, queerness, fandom
A personal essay on how the Gundam Wing series and fandom community helped me change my personal beliefs on love and gender.

A short piece about Odin Lowe and his young protégé. This is an excerpt from a longer (discontinued) 2009 fic I once posted on ff.net ("Kaifuku"), but it can be read as a standalone piece.

dude in distress, Trowa for MVP, things that go boom, Backstory things, modern day AU, Sequel, alternating pov, Trowa POV, Duo POV
It's been over a year since Duo and Trowa escaped the pain and betrayal and danger of their pasts, went off the grid and started building a new life together. But when Duo's birthday comes and goes without a single obnoxious message from his older brother, they know something is wrong. It's time to break cover and check in. The only problem is that Duo's brother works for a powerful government agency, so making that call will put Duo and Trowa on their radar...

This Week in Gundam Wing (March 29-April 4, 2020)
Hey everyone!  Here’s your weekly roll-up.  Show your creators some love!
--Mod LAM
Fanfic
Every Moment (Ch.3/6) by @bobo-is-tha-bomb​
Pairing: Heero x Reader
Characters:  5 pilots + Reader, Relena, Lady Une
Rating: MATURE
Tags / Warnings: romance, drama, angst, lemon, lime, violence, reader insert
Summary:  You really didn’t want to go on a mission with Heero Yuy. In your opinion, he was a robot, an iceberg, and as cold as the North Pole. And you really hated the fact that people started spreading rumors about you. Now, you have two weeks to get to know him better, get comfortable with the idea of playing his wife, and keep from getting into a catfight with Wufei’s secretary (who has quite a crush on Mister Yuy herself). You thought you would be able to handle the mission, but a couple of alcohol influenced kisses really send your world spinning. And it would only get worse during the mission… And really… your careless actions do have very big consequences.
Fic WIP Sneak Peak by @bobo-is-tha-bomb​ 
Pairing: Trowa x Reader
Characters: Trowa, Reader
Rating: General
Tags / Warnings: reader insert
Summary: Trowa Barton definitely made quite a sight, you thought as he stepped outside, pulling on a shirt as he went.

Pairing:  Heero x Duo, Duo x Hilde, Trowa x Quatre, Wufei x OC
Characters:  5 pilots + Relena, Hilde, Sally, Noin, Zechs
Rating: MATURE
Tags / Warnings: slice of life, post-break up, slow burn, developing relationship, implied/referenced past domestic violence
Summary:  You know that one of these things is not like the others, you're never going to find a lover like...
Respite from War by @nephthysphoenix
Pairing: Duo x Wufei
Characters: Duo, Wufei
Rating: Teen and Up
Tags / Warnings:  romance, humor, fluff, banter, food, luxury, tenderness, non-explicit reference to sex 
Summary:  Small luxuries in any shape, form, and attribution walks a long road in order to make people happy, comfortable, and prideful.
LIFE AFTER METEOR will return April 25!!
Series Summary: Having survived the Eve War, the Gundam pilots are left to their own devices to chart the paths their lives will take in a world that none of them expected to live long enough to see. Peace is disorienting and growing up is hard to do. 
AC 195-210 is available here on AO3 in case you need to catch up!
AC 211 will be posted weekly on Saturdays at 8PM EDT starting on April 25, 2020.  Stay tuned!
