Relena and Heero

The next in 's latest "pin-up" set. A little moment between Relena and Heero, perhaps in the morning, when both are showering/getting ready for the day. Since Relena is an Empress in 's story, she would usually have a few ladies-in-waiting around her at this time of day, doing her hair and such. This scene would be from one of their occasional vacations/royal retreats. Naturally, protocol would require that they take retainers and such with them, but Relena would insist on it just being herself and her husband in their private chambers.

Since Relena and Heero would probably want to take their retreat in a smaller, less obvious space, I imagined a spacious "cottage" for them. Even the royal chambers are relatively low-key. The mirror, as ornate as it is, would probably only do for the servants' quarters back at the imperial palace. Probably still too fussy for Heero, but he's not complaining much right now.

This is actually how I always imagined Relena to look in real life- mid-20's, old enough to have a young daughter, but still young herself. A bit more developed in the area of cheekbones and such, a bit taller. Her hair is in its natural, un-teased and un-styled state (I think Heero prefers it that way) , and her slip is very simple. Heero has just walked out of the shower or bath, I think, and he's quite enjoying the view.

Anyway, I don't know that this really counts as "pin-up" . It's far less sexy than the last one. (If that's a problem, Haro, I can just do another one. Seriously, I had intended more sultriness, and...this is what happened. )
