starr_falling, ON Duo and pumpkin guts
One Night Halloween Drabble 6
Heero walked out into the backyard and paused in mid-step, his mouth dropping open slightly.
"Duo? What are you doing?"
Duo looked up, a streak of orange on one cheek, hands covered in slime. "Carving pumpkins, what does it look like?" He smiled a little and wiggled his fingers at Heero. "It's sort of disgusting, isn't it?"
"It looks disgusting," Heero agreed, sitting down on the cement, one finger tracing the edge of the newspaper Duo was kneeling on. "Why are you carving pumpkins?"
"It's Halloween?" Duo gave him a puzzled glance, slopping another handful of pumpkin guts onto the newspaper.
"True," Heero smiled. "It's just- I don't remember you carving any last year."
"We didn't have a job last year," Duo rubbed at his nose with the back of his hand.
Ah, mystery explained. "This is how you're going to get the explosives close to the target."
"Exactly. Who notices pumpkins this time of year? You expect to see them." Duo made a face at the vegetable in front of him. "Though I didn't think it would be quite like this. I think pulling someone's heart out is less messy."
"Well, this should clean up easier anyway," Heero consoled him and Duo grinned.
"That's for sure. Bloodstains can be a bitch to clean."
Heero made himself more comfortable and rolled up his sleeves. "Can I help?"
"You don't mind?"
"Course not. Anything to help you, right? Even dealing with pumpkin guts."
Duo's look warmed him. "Right."
