Summary: "Now, children, we're going on a very special visit today. We're going to visit the grave of Heero Yuy, the man who saved the Earth and the colonies twice, and gave his life doing so."
Why: OK, I'll admit it. This story is a whole lot of wish fulfillment, at least as far as I'm concerned, but I'm honestly ok with that. Because seriously, if Heero's going to die and have schoolchildren learning about him, Duo damn well better show up and set them all straight about the real Heero Yuy. Of course, I'd much prefer Heero alive, but if he's going to be dead, well, this is the way I want it to be.

Summary: Let me tell you, it was the hardest mission I was ever assigned when I swore to myself that I would get that genuine smile out of all the pilots.
Why: I liked this for the insight that it gave into all of the pilot's characters, but especially for the insight into Duo. Anria writes him with a good introspective voice, and even though the concept is simple, it works really well. I also kind of liked the twist at the end, although I haven't personally been able to get into the sequel that it leads into.

Summary: Duo tries to find a way to get Relena to stop stalking Heero.
Why: If you've been reading Gundam Wing fic for any amount of time, I'm sure you've realized that it's a common fandom cliche to have Relena stalking Heero. This story takes a humorous spin on that and throws Duo into the mix as well. This is one of those stories that makes me snicker just to think about it because it's so silly. The Duo POV is nicely executed, and I can't help but take some sadistic pleasure from seeing Heero so confounded. Fun!
