Leblanc was empty this morning, save for Yusuke who had asked to come in before any customers to have a moment alone. His gaze was fixed upon the painting on the wall, The Sayuri; a self portrait of a mother he could no longer recall.
But as he looked over the features of the woman in the painting; the gentle smile upon her lips as she gazed down at her baby, he could feel the love she had put into every stroke. That was enough to warm his heart on what could be an otherwise difficult day.
“Happy Mother’s day. Thank you for everything. And please, keep watching over me. I’ll make you proud..”
Tumblr media
He spoke softly, placing a small vase near the painting with a carnation placed in it. He spent a few more quiet moments contemplating things before heading to the door to go and put all his efforts into pursuing the true beauty of the world once again. For that was the deepest connection he had to his Mother; a mutual adoration of art and one which he would treasure forever.

Sunrise was born in a society where about everything that could be stacked up against her was. An ill mother, a crippled father, born as a housecat, with an exceptionally beautiful coat...
The lamia value two things, strength, and beauty.
Strength without beauty is worthless.
Strength and beauty make a leader.
Beauty without strength... is good for display.
Leaders are tigers and lions, those with wisdom and coats trimmed and styled just so.
Sunrise learns to fight young, in scrabbles with other streetcats. Her parents do not want her. She is weak, they say, in their illness and deformity.
She is thrown to the dirt, clawed, beaten, and she stands with blood on her lips. Again, she says.
And so again, and again, and again. She learns and she fights and she pushes until finally, she stands in front of Liverra, his mane plush and his skin unblemished.
She stands, her spine that of steel, a ragged cut on her lip and on her palms from where her teeth and nails broke skin, on her sides and her arms and her back, her tail, her paws, injuries inflicted by others in the fight for survival.
She stands, a showing of the misery within their society, in front of the negligence that allowed it.
Liverra does not take her seriously.
Now now, little kitten, he purrs. Go back to the small fights, and leave us big cats to our fights.
No, she decides, blood on her tongue. She won’t.
The ceremonial Naginata, not wielded but for times of hardship and war, wrought from gold and ruby, engraved with enchantments foreign and powerful vanishes from its resting spot.
It reappears in Sunrise’s hands. It is sturdy, and heavy, and acts like an extension of her own arms as the tip of its blade rests under Liverra’s chin.
Oh, he says, and nothing else.
I have fought, she begins. For this right. To be here. To live, she debates which to use. But it does not matter, this is simply the beginning, and the middle and end have not yet come.
The Naginata vanishes, again, reappears on her back, and Liverra swallows heavily.
Well, he says. I suppose now, I am just River, again.
Sunrise smiles, a sharp, short smile. She does not yet have her leader name, but it is coming. She can taste it, like change, in the air.

Transphobia
It’s rant time! You all know the drill.
transphobia-  intense dislike of or prejudice against transsexual or transgender people. I honestly don’t understand someone who would go out of their way to hate someone who is trying to be themselves. We tell our children all their lives to be themselves, yet we complain when they actually become themselves. I couldn’t find much research on how transphobic people think. 
Alright, now onto an even touchier subject, bathrooms for trans people. Honestly, either give them their own bathrooms, or just let them use the one that they now have the parts for. For example, if you were once a man and decided to become a woman you should be entitled to use the female restroom. Same with women that transfer to men. 
Hope I didn’t offend to many people. Also, thanks for reading my worthless opinion. Go ahead and leave some criticism and your opinions. I’d be happy to hear them.

Just a little dribbledrabble that I forgot I wrote at 3am the other night... 280 words
tagging @today-in-fic
‘…and I think we can all agree that the projections for this coming year are…’ Scully was doing her best not to tune the budget meeting out, she really was. But there were so many other things to think about. Dinner with her mother that evening. The god-awful tie Mulder had picked that morning. The journal article she’d been reading over her coffee before the meeting. Mulder’s shower-gel permeating her olfactory senses from where he sat next to her. To remember to buy milk on her way home. 
The knock on the door broke into her reveries. Kimberly, polite as anything, announced a phone call for Mulder that didn’t sound like it could wait. 
He stood up, as eager to leave as she was, but actually being given the chance. ‘Sorry. I’ll be back as soon as possible,’ he mumbled, nodding to the table in general, before bending down and giving Scully a short, sweet peck to the lips.
Nothing major. No tongues. Barely more than a passing brush. An every day gesture. Something that felt as natural as anything.
Except the easy gesture wasn’t natural. Wasn’t a daily occurrence, not unless she had actually slipped to sleep whilst suffering through the budget meeting.
 But no. Because she could feel the heat in her cheeks, and the stares of her colleagues and boss. And everyone around the table was silent, marvelling at the spectacle before them as Mulder sauntered from the room, oblivious. 
Skinner cleared his throat, looked towards the agent who had been interrupted and nodded for him to continue as Scully prayed for the ground to open up right under the Hoover building and swallow her whole.

Out of all my bad habits, you were my favourite Because you didn't mind that I cracked my bones to relieve my stress, or that I took up too much of your personal space And you answered your phone in the early hours of the morning when nothing would calm me but the sound of your voice. I wonder if she knows you like I did, and I wonder if you trust her like you trusted me. Not that I would ever trust you like that again. But when the air turns cold in the early months of autumn I am reminded of your eyes and how they found mine across any crowded room. You hurt me, but in some sick way I still belong to you

Angst prompt day 15, helplessness
Aeid is scrabbling, fingers splitting as he tries to hold onto the claws dangling him over a cave of sharp rocks. His breath comes in uneven gasps, legs kicking futility, and he’s slipping.
Honey tries to take off, her wings twitching feebly, but her hair is too long and tangles around their base. Her knees slam into the ground, but her eyes are glued to the ruby figure dangling from so high above. One hand fumbles blindly for a dagger, and she slices herself on the blade before getting a grip on the hilt.
It’s sharp, and she reaches up, pulling her hair back in a facsimile of a ponytail, before trying to slice through it. Chunks fall to the ground around her, but not enough.
Her fingers, slick with her own blood now, scrabble for another handful, and this time, Aeid falls.
She can’t fly, not with her hair keeping her wings down. She can’t catch him, one arm broken, and one holding a dagger, and one tangled in her hair and the last stopping her from falling herself.
He’s not screaming, she thinks, and hates how the thought is almost... casual.
But, if he isn’t screaming... who is?
Whoever they are, they sound like they’re dying.
Her throat hurts.

What will be, will be.
What’s meant to be yours will return to thee.
It may be saddening to see,
Sometimes it’s just not meant to be.

Homophobia
Time for another rant, this time the topic is, well you read the title. Let’s begin!
homophobia- dislike of or prejudice against homosexual people 
The definition is pretty clear, so the real question is why are people homophobic? Many cases of homophobia come from Christians. Apparently, in the Bible it says somewhere that being lgbt+ is wrong. “Where does it say this?” You may be asking yourself. Many people believe that it says nothing of it however in Leviticus 18:22 it states, “You shall not lie with a male as with a woman; it is an abomination.” Along with in Romans 1:26-27, “For this reason God gave them up to dishonorable passions. For their women exchanged natural relations for those that are contrary to nature; and the men likewise gave up natural relations with women and were consumed with passion for one another, men committing shameless acts with men and receiving in themselves the due penalty for their error.” There are many more examples however I won’t address more than these. Many Christians sin all the time for their life time, such as gays might. There is nothing wrong with being gay. God is not confirmed to exist, meaning “his” words could all be false and written by one person to persuade half of the world to be overcome by something in the sky. Plus, these are not God’s straight words; these are someone else’s. God could think completely differently and be accepting of all.
I know, I know, it seems as if I’m bashing Christians, I’m not. I’m bashing homophobes. Some criticism, facts, and reassurance would be appreciated. 
One last note for all the lgbt+ that read this. You are strong, even if you don’t feel accepted there is someone out there for you. I’m lesbian and found the best girlfriend. 
Next rant will probably be about transphobia.
