If you're sized tiny:

1. Do you have a reach of 5-feet with a reach weapon?

2. Can two tiny creatures fight in a medium-sized creature's square?

3. If they can do they provide flanking to each other?

4. If they can do they provide flanking to others outside their square?

5. If they can can you take a 5-foot step into their square?

6. If they can can a tiny creature take an AoO if that medium-sized creature moves more than 5-feet?

1) In 3.5, officially no. In 3.0, Savage Specieis said yes. Ask your DM, many carry over the Savage Species rules, and say yes even in 3.5

2) Yes they can fight in the same square.

3) and 4) I was wrong, see intelligent answers provided by other posters below.

5) You can always take a 5ft step without taking an AoO.

6) If you move more than 5ft in a round and end up in the same square as a Tiny creature, that tiny creature can take an AoO because they threaten a square you moved through. (the one they are in).

I just found something...page 29 of the DMG in the section "Mixing It Up".

Apparently two tiny creatures in a medium-sized creature's square do infact flank.

What's not clear is if they provide flanking to people outside their square as well.

From the 3.5 DMG, page 29:
Any time more than one allied creature occipies an opponent's space, the allied creatures provide each other with the benefit of flanking. If a creature occupies part of an opponent's space, it provides flanking to all allied creatures outside the opponent's space.
Did you read the line under that one, Harmor? :)

Sorry, Apparently I was wrong. I will edit my post.
