Prompts: King. Thats what xey went by. Besides the negativity xey felt in their little "group" as a loner, he still made his day confident as a transgender tom. While he felt dysphoric at times, who could help it? Truly, the group he was in had a lot of peer pressure. Cats around xem were either homophobic or pressured to act as such, as parents were out of the loop. However, besides this, King didn't care. At all. Xe was actually one of the only cats that ever came out openly and stated it after being shut down.
A young cat by the name of Sparrow was around 7 moon-cycles old. His parents were both homophobic too- but something in King could tell xem that this Sparrow did not feel the same. In fact, when he stood in the crowd, when a cat went on a rant- King could see hurt in their eyes.
King took Sparrow to the side, using his tail to guide the young one. Sparrow seemed disheartened, paws slow and sluggish. King stopped when they were out of earshot of the group, gently smiling down at the small cat. "Hey, lil' man," spoke King, before Sparrow's ears flattened, drawing back on the top of his head.
"Hi," the feline stated curtly, looking away with a huff. King's eyebrow couldn't help but raise, curious. "Lil' lady?" he probed gently, causing Sparrow's ears to raise alertly and look back towards King. An embarrassed look flew over the kitten's face, the skin underneath the fur turning a warm pink. Looking at King's cape, their face screwed over to a sad one.
A cracked, nervous, "Mhm.." left their throat, before King nodded down to them. Sitting down and using a paw to make space for Sparrow, the molly stepped forward to press her head into King's hairless chest. A small whimper left the molly as tears bubbled at her blue eyes, before King used a paw to wrap xer cape around the kit.
"What do you want to be called?" King asked quietly, using xer other paw to keep themself steady. Sparrow hesitated, before moving their gray face up to look at the male. Their face seemed upset, though not in a bad way. They had definitely been hiding this for awhile, and the homophobia of their environment was not helping.
"Uh.." their voice trailed off, before her head tipped back down. "I don't know."
King just nodded. "Think about it. Let it come to you."
Sparrow's ears flicked, several moments passing by slowly as the molly thought. King sat patiently. "If you can't think of one right now, that's okay t-"
Her voice was firm and assertive, as her head looked up at King confidently. "Rose."
"Rose?" he asked, before nodding with a toothy smile. "That sounds perfect to me, Rose."
Rose's paws moved to hug King, her face pressing back into his chest with a shaky huff. "Thank you.." she said quietly, but King didn't reply. Xe had done his duty already, and this molly just needed some comfort right now.
