Said about the man currently sporting a sparkly pink cloud as an accessory. Wufei laughed, too, giving his head a shake. "You're only unreasonable sometimes," he replied lightly, and grinned when he was warned against releasing bugs in the house. "But crickets are lucky. You wouldn't want to curse us to bad luck by refusing crickets, would you? It's like challenging the power of worse, but with cute little creatures that chirp lullabies."

"Only sometimes? Shit, guess I gotta up my game!" Said playfully of course, because Duo was pretty damn happy these days, even with the few ups and downs he and Wufei had had. Generally he felt they were in a good place. Good enough to have talks like this.

"Where'd you get the idea crickets are lucky?" Duo glanced away from the tea to look over at Wufei, brow raised. "Can't be all that lucky if a spider-cat is gonna chase em down and have them for lunch!" He paused, turning back to finishing off the tea as he slowly continued. "But... hearin them outside? That and the rain, kinda like those sounds. I'm a guy used to built up living. Cities and stuff. First time I found myself somewhere with land I had no idea what a cricket or a cicada was and loved the sounds of them chirping. I just don't want that in the house!"

[pilot05]

Wufei snorted softly, giving his head a little shake. "What do you mean where did I get the idea? Doesn't everyone know crickets are lucky?" he asked with a laugh, watching Duo finish up making their tea.

And when Duo looked back at him, the pink sparkle cloud was gone, Wufei's face torn between disbelief and horror.

"You like weather? Planetary weather?"

[maxwellsdaemon]

"Uh, no? Only thing I know is those shits think they know better than you!" Thank you, Pinocchio! That cricket just declaring himself the puppets 'conscience' had always rubbed Duo the wrong way. How did an insect believe for even a second that it knew enough about life to teach someone else? But he also had a feeling that there was a story behind what Wufei was trying to ell him, so he gestured for him to continue. Until the cloud vanished and the look of shock came over his boyfriend.

"Something wrong with that?" Duo chuckled and moved to hand Wufei his tea. "Colony-brat, Wufei. Only ever saw weather in passing. First time I got caught in rain I..." He shook his head at the memory and grabbed his own tea to take it, and himself, back through to the living room. "I love it. Anythin that separates this life from the life I had before is a good thing."

[pilot05]

Wufei blinked, completely confused. "Crickets... know better?" He was reminded not for the first time that he and Duo had come from two very, very different backgrounds. "Crickets have always been considered lucky, where I'm from," he offered, still feeling a little confused.

He accepted his tea and shook his head. "I suppose that's one way to look at it," he agreed reluctantly, giving his head a little shake. They were going to have an interesting day the first time a severe storm rolled through. Duo might have loved them, but they left Wufei terrified.

[maxwellsdaemon]

"You've never seen Pinocchio, huh? Jiminy Cricket, just goes and decides that he's gonna be a sentient puppet's conscience!" Duo had thought it was insane the first time he'd seen that movie. Though the whole movie was kind of crazy and like some fever dream. The bit with the donkey's had been traumatic.

"So you like crickets, huh?" With his own tea in hand, Duo used his other to slip around Wufei's waist and grinned. "Lucky crickets... Heh, guess that makes you my lucky cricket? Being here with you, I've never felt more lucky."

[pilot05]

Wufei shook his head, and snorted softly at the description. "I've never heard anything to indicate listening to a cricket is a good idea," he replied, more than a little amused.

"I like crickets very much," he agreed, and laughed when Duo called him one. "I can't even be mad about that, can I?" he tisked, and leaned in to kiss Duo lightly.
