Dialog between Heero and Zechs

--

"What is it?"

"Chicken┘ I think."

"How can you be sure?"

"┘"

"Right."

"Put the cell phone away."

"There is an emergency at preventer headquarters that requires my immediate attention."

"What emergency?"

"The one I'm going to order them to have."

"Take me with you!"

"Did you just ask me for a favor?"

"Look, Yuy I may be a proud man, but I haven't had a decent meal in 3 months since Noin decided she wanted to start cooking at home. I'm desperate, get me out of here and a pizza and I'll give you anything you want."

"If you go, Noin goes and finds out there is no emergency."

"I could tell on you."

"She would ask WHY I skipped out."

"┘"

"Then she will ask you if you like her cooking."

"┘"

"Then you will have to eat the 'chicken' if that is what this is."

"┘ I hate you beyond the ability of words to describe. At least give me an out, anything."

"Fake stomach flu?"

"Three times, this month."

"Long conference call with Mars?"

"Last night, 3 hours."

"Deliver a report to Une?"

"Monday."

"Take her out to 'someplace nice.'?"

"I would get to sleep in the car, if I'm lucky. How did you get out of it, I know Relena tried cooking for a while?"

"All the food recalls, faulty ovens, and me being sick the next morning, she decided it wasn't worth it."

"Sick the next morning?"

"Spiked my own food."

"You are an evil genius."

"Chicken."

"That too."

"Chicken."

"You already said tha-"

"Zechs, what's wrong, you haven't touched your chicken yet?"

"I, err."

Nextel chirp "Agent Wing, we have a computer emergency that requires your immediate attention."

"I'm on my way."

"┘ chicken┘"
