## Backstory

All the events from Episode Zero, the anime, all OVAs happened. Once the Gundams were destroyed, Quatre turned to the family business, taking over as CEO but not finding much happiness. A year or two after the Eve Wars, Winner Enterprises ended up buying out all of Walmart’s stock, making Quatre the president and CEO of the Earth Sphere’s largest retailer. Through drastic changes in policy and perception, Winnermart became the most progressive retailer as well. A lot of the changes Kat made to Winnermart didn't sit well with Adina, his sister. Her constant bullying and belittling sucked the life out of Quatre’s job.

His love life was woefully non-existant. He tried twice, with someone he’d had feelings for, for a long time. Trowa Barton’s circus was on L4 for an extended engagement, and Quatre made time to visit (much to the chagrin of his assistant, who was so used to Zayeed and his work-til-you-drop tendencies). There were feelings, and they were mutual. But with Trowa traveling so much, nothing could ever come of it. True, Quatre could simply take Trowa in without even the blink of an eye, but he knew Trowa would be very unhappy with that. He didn’t want to mooch off Quatre and didn’t want to be seen as a “boytoy” for the richest man in the Earth Sphere.

When Duo Maxwell dropped back into his daily life after a period of what seemed like a deep depression, that re-awakened feelings he’d had since the war. Duo, however, was technically in Quatre’s employ as a courier, and anything more than a friendship with him would be too risky. On top of that, WE had grown and expanded, leaving Quatre with absolutely zero time for anything that wasn’t work.

After attempts at romance with Trowa and Duo, Quatre begrudgingly agreed with his assistant that perhaps romance was meant for later in life. You know, after working himself to an early grave.

While Quatre is proud of what he did as CEO, he still didn’t feel completely satisfied with his work. He didn’t have an exciting life at all. Occasionally he’d put his two cents in at Preventers, but he never went out in the field like he wanted to. Even after leaving the office, he’d end up being tied to his phone, either responding to after-hours emails, strategizing with his vice-presidents, or arguing with his assistant about why he couldn’t wear a blue tie tomorrow, or why he couldn’t use one of the twenty vacation days he had earned over the year to go dirtside and leave everything behind in a cloud of dust kicked up from his sportbike. If someone would have given Quatre the chance to bail on the life of a CEO, even if it meant working as a greeter instead, he’d take it in a heartbeat. He knew he could do so much more when he wasn’t held to a desk and chair with an invisible ball and chain.

To prove his point, Quatre often made store visits by moonlighting as a cashier or greeter. On one such visit to one of Winnermart’s newest and most troubled outlets, he found out that Heero Yuy worked there as well, which rekindled thoughts that Quatre had shoved aside before during the war. It’s here that our story begins…

## Trivia

* Quatre is a whirlwind of disaster in the kitchen, thanks to being waited on practically all his life. He means well which is the only thing that would save him if Gordon Ramsay ever came waltzing into the Winner-Yuy-Maxwell household. He is (slowly) learning and has recently received clearance to operate the toaster solo.
	+ HOWEVER: Somehow, he’s found the ability to whip up a mean milkshake.
* Favorite ice cream flavor: Strawberry
* Kat is an adrenaline junkie. He owns a motorcycle and keeps it in top shape. If given the chance he will suit up and take it out onto an open road, and scream down the highway like a banshee on fire. One of his potential splurges would be on a sporty, fast, personal space shuttle - the next best thing to Sandrock.
* Favorite Activities at Work: For some strange reason Kat loves to do resets and planograms. He also challenges his sales staff to be the first to respond to a call for register backup assistance. He wins most of the time.
* He has workaholic tendencies. He will not call off work unless he physically cannot be there (i.e., too sick to get out of bed). He will work however long it takes to finish what he needs to finish - occasionally to the chagrin of his husbands and his manager. Slowly he is breaking himself of this habit, and the oncoming arrival of kids into his family will accelerate that. If nothing else, the thought of parenting like his father did disgusts him. He will make sure he’s around more for his kids than Zayeed was around for him.
* Favorite Video Game: Sonic the Hedgehog, though ironically he can't stand Sonic in Super Smash Bros. Instead he prefers Kirby.
* Musicality: As in canon, he is an excellent violinist, can sing, and can play the piano decently.
* Playing music is the easiest way for Quatre to clear his mind. He pours all of his emotions into whatever he plays, and the performance reflects the emotion.
* He’s let his hair grow a bit; it’s now just above shoulder-length in the back. It makes him look a little older (and sexier).
* He has a conceal-carry permit and takes advantage of it, though he prays that he never has to actually draw or use it. Rasid insisted on him having it because being the most powerful businessman in the Earth Sphere gains you more enemies than you realize.
* Thanks to his upbringing, he’s fluent in Standard English (though occasionally has trouble hearing through certain accents), Arabic, and French. He is competent in Japanese, but only in its most polite form. Dialects and slang in Japanese confuse him more often than not.
* Also thanks to his upbringing, his accent is slightly British, which makes people think he’s this adorable but spoiled brat.
* His handwriting is so legible it’s sickening sometimes.
* Quatre still holds the basic beliefs of Islam, but does not observe all of its rituals. He is a self-proclaimed “occasional Muslim.” He is okay with it, because to him, his actions, guided by those principles, are the most important part - not necessarily the routine customs of the religion.
* Quatre isn’t much for covers in bed - really, just a sheet will do. He’s a human space heater and would roast under anything heavier. All the better for his blanket-hogging husband. ;)
* Quatre is slim, though not frail. He’s definitely not as strong as Heero, as fast as Duo, or as agile as Trowa, but can hold his own if necessary in a fight.
* He does have several light scars, mainly on his arms and shoulders from the intensity of piloting a 15-meter death machine. His most prominent scar is one on his abdomen from being on the losing side of a fencing match with Dorothy Catalonia.
* Except for when he’s ill or incapacitated (at which point he has no choice), Quatre absolutely hates being babied or being treated like he is some fragile Special Snowflake. It is one of the easiest way to find yourself on Quatre Winner’s bad side, at which point consequences depend on how annoyed you’ve managed to make him.
* If Quatre is sick to the point of bedrest, he becomes very cranky. He’ll feel bad that he let himself get so run down that now he can’t help anyone, and now he can’t even get up and fix his own tea or play with the kids or he has to call out of work.
* In the Yuy-Maxwell-Winner household, Quatre is the one that takes care of the finances. Their wages from Winnermart are enough to pay for all of their day-to-day living expenses and monthly bills. He keeps one account for the bills and expenses, a savings account for a “rainy day” fund (it has about 500k in it) and then his investments, which he tweaks about once a week to be sure he’s getting a good return on them. (Yeah Kat it’s good. It’s billions of credits. ALL THE CREDITS.)
