Description
While Lady Une looks for rose oil for Treize's bubble bath in the mock Parthenon, Caitlin, Kat, Mallory, and Cathy discuss episodes 3 and 4 of Gundam Wing, which turn out to be foundational texts for the most popular fandom (and merchandise!) pairings. We marvel at Quatre and Trowa's gay senpai status, try to matchmake Wufei as the odd-numbered pilot out, discuss the three anime life stages (15, 25, and dead), debate coded lesbians and whether Noin is a victim of compulsive heterosexuality, and spend some time with That Evil Knievel Dub Line and dub vs sub voices more generally. Our fandom artifact for this episode is the short fic "Good Morning, Walker" by Alexe Cinz, a tribute to the OZ officer who introduces Zechs to Tallgeese before promptly disappearing from the series forever. You can find the fic on Alexe Cinz's archived fansite Mission Acknowledged.
