Heero Yuy was not the kind of man who put his foot in his mouth. No, he was the kind of man who was prone to swallowing his entire leg without even flinching.
"He had his hand on your-"
"I know where his hand was!" scolded Relena. "Heero, I can handle myself without you whispering thinly veiled death threats in the ears of my dance partners."
"I only told him-"
"That you'd castrate him if he didn't get his hand off my ass?"
"I was only quoting-"
"An excerpt from Michel Foucault's Discipline and Punish?"
"Are you going to finish-"
"All your sentences for you? Why not? Heero, you owe that man an apology."
"No, I don't."
"Oh yes, you do."
"I'm not going to apologize for who I am."
"And who is that? Tell me exactly what you told him that you shouldn't have to apologize for. Tell me why I shouldn't ask you to take it back."
Heero seemed almost sheepish now. Seeing her overflowing with rage had him choking on the figurative foot she'd jammed down his throat.
"Well?"
"I told him to keep his hands off the girl of my dreams if he didn't want me to be his nightmare. Still want me to take it back?"
Dumbstruck, she found herself smiling for the first time that night. "On second thought, why don't you repeat that to that lech in the corner? He's been giving me dirty looks since the party started..."
