Everything should show up Monday, and you’re so excited. It’s your senior year, and you bought all your school supplies with your own money, and you live alone, and Frances is gone, and it’s only when the confirmation page for your last purchase pops up that you realize you, a kid, are feeling reckless and wild and exhilarated over completing a task that someone should have been doing for you your entire life.

You are both nonbinary people in a world that doesn’t want to understand you, let alone romance you. You know this. Julian knows this. In some small way, you feel a surge of defiance. Triumph. Because here, in this cocoon of warmth and Korra and empty Sprite cans, on Julian’s black sheets with their silver pillows strewn around you,

You never really thought that a world of magic and danger and demons and ancient gods and sentient tectonic plates would be a place you wish you could literally escape to, but hey, at least in fantasy worlds, your choices seem to matter and actually change things.

What kind of kid feels grateful and relieved that they’ll never see their mom again? How many times did Frances justify herself to you with the words Blood’s thicker than water. Family comes first.

It’s such a bizarre thing, being at once too old for people your age and too young for people who are older. It makes you feel like you don’t fit anywhere.

The thought sours your good mood a little, and that’s understandable, Will. It’s one thing to live a terrible normalcy; it’s something else altogether to take baby steps away from that terrible normalcy.
Frances shouldn’t have ever been anyone’s normal.
Your life is pretty fucked up, and you know it just a tiny bit more today than you did yesterday.
