How long have you been in the fandom?
Returned in March 2020, but I was in it around 2000-2003 or so the first go?
Who is your favorite character?
Trowa and/or Zechs... secret hot mess expresses.. though I’ve recently grown fond of the scientists 😁
Favorite Gundam?
Sandrock Custom!!
Which character do you relate to the most and why?
WOW what a loaded question! Probably Quatre because I just want people to get along!!!
What is your favorite scene (or quote) in Gundam Wing?
AND I WILL BECOME EVIL ITSELF TO FIND OUT! (From Heero vs Wufei in Endless Waltz - that scene still slaps!)
What fanwork, that you've created, are you most proud of and why? (Ex: story, artwork, craft, etc...)
I wrote a story for GW Pride 2020 that I will not link because while I enjoyed the process and what it allowed me to explore, I think it’s not really technically sound and it’s probably a very crunchy read. But I did it, and I think it had been a long time since I felt so compelled to put words down.
What would you tell your younger self about Gundam Wing and why?
You still won’t get it after ??? years, just stick to Endless Waltz.

Where can we find you? (Ao3, FFN, Tumblr, etc?)
AO3, Tumblr
How long have you been in the fandom?
About a year when I first saw the anime in '97, and then 2 seconds since returning to it now.
Who is your favorite character?
Duo Maxwell
Favorite Gundam?
Deathscythe Hell
Which character do you relate to the most and why?
Relena now. I used to not like her very much when I first watched the show because I couldn't get over what a stalker she was at the start. I have 23 years behind me since I was fifteen myself, and you know, come to think of it, had I been in her position, I probably would have stalked a cute, mysterious boy who didn't worship the ground I walked on myself at fifteen too.
What is your favorite scene (or quote) in Gundam Wing?
That scene in Episode Zero manga when Duo told Father Maxwell "I've never seen any miracles, but I've sure seen lots of dead people!"
What fanwork, that you've created, are you most proud of and why? (Ex: story, artwork, craft, etc...)
I don't have any in GW fandom right now, since I've only just come back to it, and much of the stuff I've written as a teenager have been lost to the ether (thank god, they were cringey enough I might actually die from shame rereading them). I'm writing one now, though, called The Telltale Heart, and I think it's shaping up to be pretty good.
What would you tell your younger self about Gundam Wing and why?
Stop ragging on Relena, you little shit. You're just as whiny, annoying, and besotted as her, and at least she grew up hella fast. You're still a whiny, annoying little shit at 40.
