Note: This is part of the 'itune meme': "Choose a number between 1 and 815. Comment with that number and a fandom (one I am familiar with- ask if you aren't sure), and I will write a ficlet (I'd say drabble but I might not stick to 100 words thing) based on the corresponding song in my iTunes."

"What are you doing?"
"Watching the ducks," Duo's tone was quite good, Heero thought. Only years of practice gave him the ability to hear the very slight waver in it. "What do you suppose they're talking about down there?"
"The ducks?" Heero stepped closer to the window and looked down at the pond. There was quite a gathering of ducks on one of the sides- it did resemble the group of agents he'd passed in the break room a few minutes ago.
"I know. It's an absurd thought right? Ducks talking?"
"Well, in English, sure. But in Duck? More than likely they're complaining that no one is feeding them at the moment."
Duo blinked and turned his attention on his partner. "You're humoring me now."
"Of course. Don't I always?" Heero rolled with the push Duo directed at his shoulder and moved to the side as his partner stalked back to his desk.
"You heard?"
"Yes."
"And?" Duo glared at him. "I know you have more to say than that."
Heero sat on the edge of his own desk and suppressed a sigh.
"I don't have an 'and'- I have a 'but' as in 'yes, but I want to hear your side. We could go out to lunch and you could tell me about it-"
"I don't want to talk about it."
"Or we could go out to lunch and not talk about it."
"You'd let me not talk about it?"
Heero got to his feet and grabbed his jacket. "Sure."
"There's another 'but' lurking in there," Duo grumbled as he retrieved his own jacket.
"But you know you're going to tell me eventually. You always do."
Heero opened the door and waited patiently.
"Where are we going for lunch?"
"How about the place by the junction?"
"Fine, but you're buying."
"Of course."
