Trowa's the boy without a past. His is forgotten and lost. He has no history, he has no name. He can't draw back on a past and he can only work with what he knows.
As the third Gundam pilot he is a machine. He shows hardly any emotion and that enables him to kill without compassion but there's a price he pays for it. All his feelings build inside him and though he remains cool on the outside his inner self is torn. Infact, I think there's only one instance where he laughs in the series ...I laughed, too.
His past is a tragedy for him (which is especially evident in the WIng Zero episode) and despite all the darkness that haunts him and all the death that surrounds him he remains essentially good. He still has the need to protect and the need to save.
Trowa still recognizes sacrifice though; he knows that the mission comes first.
He and Heero get along well enough -- they both seem of the same breed: Cold, emotionless, perfect soldiers. They are not great friends but they are commrades. They acknowledge each other because they know what has to be done.
Trowa and Duo again are like commrades but not great friends. Duo is loud, dramatic and dynamic. Trowa isn't. Duo tries to relate -- or at least get some conversation going but it flops.
Trowa and Quatre have an odd kinship to each other. They're opposites but they have kindrid spirits. They're lovers of art together but Trowa, in the end, is hardened. They probably have the closest relationship of all the pilots and this is where the 3x4 relationship is alluded to...
Trowa and Wufei are commrades. Nothing more than that...perhaps even less so than Trowa is with Heero or Duo. Wufei's kinda the lone wolf left out guy in the series. His character doesn't allow for much teamwork -- They get along okay, though. Maybe it's because Trowa's "alone" too.
Trowa's sad clown persona seems to suit him. Silent, performing and wearing the unchanging mask that hides his face, his self and his feelings safely.
