Yeah. When there's nothing to be apologizing for. [He lets out a quiet, amused breath.] Some things just are, there's no need for you to take ownership of 'em...
[Anyway... he cracks a grin, remembering the others' powers.] Most of us had something related to our Gundams, one way or another. Wufei was pyrokinetic- could produce and control flames. Me, with my cloaking, kinda like 'scythe's Active Cloak and EMC capabilities, and you-- well, I guess that one was a little more tongue-in-cheek for ol' Lachesis. 'Sandrock'... [His grin widens] Not all of us, though. Heero was invulnerable- more than usual, even. Bullets just bounced offa him, can you believe it!?
And Trowa... [Duo grin goes wide, side-glancing towards Quatre] I called 'im "Simba". He could shapeshift into a lion. Can you believe it!? [He's cracking up again, just thinking about it.]
[What's it like to not take ownership of everything? Sounds pretty selfish, if you ask Quatre. He looks like he doesn't quite believe Duo, but that he'll humor him for the sake of the conversation. There's plenty of appropriately distracting material to work with, after all.
Listening to Duo name a power for each of them really drives home that they were here (or close enough to it); Quatre can't help but smile just at the sound of their names, much less the descriptions of their abilities.] I'd noticed that with your cloaking, but to think it was a pattern... [Well, Wufei was a pattern. He admits that it sounds like his own forgotten abilities were more of a pun than something Sandrock could actually do. He actually laughs with delight at the reveal about Trowa.] We really were all together.... [It's good. It feels right. Not that this was wrong, but-- it would either be one or two of them, or all of them. Better to have all five together. It's a nice enough idea that he doesn't think to ask, at first.] ...Why didn't you say anything before?
[It's an honest question, not a guilt trip; he's truly curious to know.]
