I'm baaa-aaack! With RWBY this time! Yay! EnJoY!
Summary: Yang contemplates why Raven walked out on her and Taiyang. Yangst.
Raven Branwen. Brave warrior, perfect huntress, and my mom. My mom who walked out as soon as the cord was cut. My mom, who never came back for my dad. Or me. My mom who saved my life. And never said a word. No 'I love you' or 'I missed you'. Nothing a real mom would say, nothing a mother would do. I mean, I'm grateful for that. God knows what Neo would have done to me if she hadn't shown up and saved my ass. And even though she cared enough the first time, Qrow told me that she wanted me to know not to expect that kindness again. Why?
Summer would have saved Ruby a million times over. She would have saved me a million times over. But my own biological mother tells me "Don't expect future kindness."
I wish Summer Rose was still around. She loved me just as much her own flesh and blood. Super-Mom, slayer of monsters, baker of cookies. Too bad Super-Mom isn't around anymore. I don't even know if my mother loves me. She cared about me enough to save me that time on the train. Or maybe Qrow got her to do it. I don't know! I'll never know. Never. Why can't I know?
I vowed I would never let my search take over my life. Oh, it's tempting. Very tempting. If only.
If only Mom had never left. No, she's not my mom. She never acted like it. If only Raven had never left. If only Summer was still alive. Ruby and I could've grown up together. With both our mothers. We could have grown up happy. If only our would-be future was a reality.
If only.
Short, I know. Oh well. Everybody loves Yangst, no matter how short. Just don't get all Yang-ry. Get it? Sorry, that pun needs a hand. I'm sorry. Really and truly. Have you seen Yang at the end of Volume 3? Poor Yang. :(. Leave a review, constructive criticism welcome, as always, flames for the neighbour's trash can.
Elbow out for now (LOL!),
Tasie.
