He blinked a few times at the dessert set in front of him, then at its creator, and then back at his dish.
"What is this?" he asked, poking it tentatively with his fork.
"Chocolate," Heero said, that telltale smirk teasing at his lips to indicate he was quite pleased with himself.
Duo scraped some of the chocolate frosting off with two of the tines. "I can see that. My question is, why does this look like part of a dismembered mobile suit, complete with buster shield?"
Heero walked to the kitchen to cut a piece for himself, and when he sat down, Duo couldn't resist peering at his plate. "That looks suspiciously like one of Deathscythe's wings," he said, pointing at one section of it with his fork. He cut into his own chocolate.
"You're right," Heero said, stabbing into his dessert and splitting the aforementioned wing into two pieces. He brought the fork up to eye level and peered at it. "It most certainly does." He held the chocolate to his mouth and waited.
Duo blew him a raspberry and brought the sinfully rich chocolate dessert to his lips. "Alright, alright," he said. "I'm eating it."
It was sweet, as he'd expected, and after the third bite he reached for the glass of milk Heero had set down earlier. He gulped down half of it and glared at Heero, who had finished three-fourths of his and showed no signs of stopping.
"Why does this not surprise me," Duo said. Determined not to be outdone, he picked up another forkful and looked at it balefully, "Only Heero Yuy," he muttered, "could manage to survive something as nefarious as Death by Chocolate."
