YESSSSSSSSS!!! I just happened to check the site before I went to bed and found this. And I am one happy camper. As I've probably said before, this is my favorite story. I'm replying for the last chapter as well as this.

How sweet yet sad when Quatre touched Trowa's face. Trowa turned into it only to brush it off as Quatre thinking he was someone else. Woo... Heero asked Trowa if he was seeing anyone. Oh Heero, you have no idea. I can't wait to see more interaction between the guys. Hehehe... Just when you think Fahd was being nice by getting Trowa the flute, the vibrator is unveiled.

Trowa wanting the scissors or a letter opener so he could destroy something was so funny. Oh shit... I just thought Fahd was being kinky. How creepy to find out that wasn't him. My poor Trowa. Bravo to him for trying to bite it off. But the taser to such a painful place... OUCH. I have to admit that I normally hate OCs but I adore Fahd. I shouldn't but I do. I love his and Trowas messed up "relationship". Fahd gathering Trowa into his arms. Very cute. Loved, loved, loved Fahd reaction to what happened. Trowa means something to Fahd. What that something is remains to be seen.

Is Heero starting to get suspicious? Trowa made a comment to himself about it not taking that long to do something to
the bike. Was Heero checking for something? Or was Trowa just in pain and ready to go? Loved then end with Wufei. He's concerned.

I can't wait for more.

You updated! I'm so happy~~ I love were this story is going. I love your protrayal of Trowa and how he interactes with the other pilots. I can't wait until they all find out who it is Trowa is 'seeing'. Thank you for updating. My thoughts are with Japan <3

Trowa's memories were tragic and intense, and they explain a lot about why he is who he is. Chapter 13 made me want to hit Nizar and Fahd with a bat. Trowa's realization that it wasn't Fahd when he heard the panting made that scene even creepier. Good stuff.

I hope you're managing okay in your current location. I'm stateside, but it's hard to watch the news about Japan.

It's a good thing you're safe. It's a wonder you found time to update at all, at this rate.

Thanks for writing! I enjoyed the Wufei banter at the end, too. Fahd's growing ... attachment was not something I'd forseen; I'd always thought he was into Trowa just as a novelty item of sorts, but it seems like he's starting to genuinely want to keep him (...maybe not as one would a romantic partner, but still, better than, say, a collectible.). Trowa's history was horrible and I did indeed flinch a little upon reading it. Trowa's injury this chapter also caused a bit of a flinch >_>

Thanks, again =D

I'd just like to say that you own my soul right now. This is the best Gundam story I have ever read. Fact. It's so beautifully written and the subject is so unique. When I first started reading I was a bit dubious and didn't really know how I felt about Trowa being an hermaphrodite, seeing as he is my absolute favourite character, but after reading this you have totally convinced me. I can't get across in words how much I love this story. I'm super looking forward to your next update!

Hello, nice to see you again! I generally check this fic out once every half year, and I'm finding it works out very well for me =) Thank you for updating, although judging from you AN, it's a belated thank you =)

Anyways, fic. My favorite part was maybe the conversation between Heero and Trowa. In fact, because of this, and because of the interaction between the pilots (like, say, Duo's cheer) I wouldn't say this chapter was a complete filler. That conversation... It almost seems like Heero wanted Trowa to say no. OK, that much was pretty obvious. But the why is what gets me thinking. Does he want that because he wants them all to be together? Or because he doesn't like the thought that Trowa doesn't trust them enough with the information? Heero's reaction to "it's a guy" seems to point to the former.

It's hard, not only because Trowa's being the outcast, but a lot of it is based off miscommunication, misunderstandings that are created on purpose, and flat out lies. And yet, it's not like Trowa can just go out and say something, because Fahd's holding that Damacles' Sword over his head (I'm not even sure that's the right analogy ... but you get the point! ...I hope XD)

I really love this story, and I hope you continue it! I look forward to reading when everything is finally resolved, with no misunderstandings between them, and with Fahd's face ground into the dirt, no matter how far into the future that chapter will be posted! Thanks for keeping with this fic and continuing to write! =)

PS: How long is the prospected fic length? How many chapters? And, because I'm curious, do you write based off "planning whole fic" first, or "planning one chapter at a time"?

Woohoo! Merry Christmas to me. Unfortunately, I don't have time to read it right this moment (wails pathetically). I'm going to save it and then print it out to read the second I get the chance. I haven't even read this yet and I can't wait until the next part.

I love how when I randomly check this fic on a whim, you update. Yet again =3 Am I lucky, or am I lucky =333

The mercenary bit of Trowa's life was completely different from the previous sections. He spoke in shorter sentences (reflecting of his more-of-a-loner nature and his younger age / lack of education and the in-the-moment feeling of being a mercenary?) and Trowa's relationship with the others can only best be described as distant. It was interesting that despite that he was also probably distant with his previous gang, he liked them better. I liked the little comparisons he made; it showed that he missed them.

And his second team was full of jackasses >_>

(On a side note, about how old was he then? I imagined less than 10, but that's because I had read the prologue manga ... Target Zero? Zero...something... Wow, it's been so long...)

And then we get to ... Fahd's blatant raping of Trowa. Yeesh. Fahd, get yourself in control *shudder* But it seems that Trowa's stayed for a night, and then he's going to stay another. Didn't the other pilots expect him back that first night? There's going to be a confrontation about the "where have you been?!" part too, in addition to everything else, isn't there... And by the gods, I can only imagine Heero being observant enough to catch all of Trowa's limping and bruises and flinching when he gets back >_> Not going to be a happy reunion, nope.

Thanks a bunch for updating =3 Can't wait to read the next chapter!

(PS: If you really want someone to discuss this with, I can try to help. Only if you want, of course. Or if you want a random kick of inspiration. =P )

I just read this story for the first time. And let me just say - wow! I am loving the characterization of Trowa: everything he is going through, bringing up all of these past memories, how he is dealing with it all. I cried reading a few of those chapters as well - really cried. I'm totally peeved at the rest of the pilots for their treatment of him. They really need a couple of smacks to the head, although I am glad that Quatre finally said something in Trowa's defence to his secret.

As to being "down" about fanfiction - I agree with Whip's comments above. It is a wonderful way to get practice and feedback while also working on originals. And the Gundam Boys are just so much fun to play with! Keep up the great work!

This has been a wild ride. Seriously.

I don't hate Trowa's resignation that he can't do anything to stop Fahd. What I hate is his roommates' reticence and how much they've detached themselves from him. That's a strong reaction for me to feel from reading a fictional story, namely the urge to smack them all upside the head. So, good for you, this was very, very well done. I finally had the chance to sit down and read the eleventh chapter this morning.

This is a very tangible story. No, the sex doesn't suck, so push that idea from your mind immediately. Is it frustrating to see Trowa abused? Sure. Is it equally so to see Fahd force him to take physical pleasure from it? Yup. But again, look what Trowa's willing to put himself through to protect the people he cares about. He's about to fall apart and he can't even rely on the stoicism that's pulled him through in the past. That's where the storytelling affects me the most.

More than anything, I long to smack Duo. I cheered when Quatre told him to get his head out of his butt, and that Trowa never lied to him. That was fantastic.
