Soft by Latiwings
Gogo thinks that being soft is stupid.
Soft is for the weak, soft is for the people who cannot stand up to their own beliefs. Soft is for the people who cannot handle her temper, cannot handle her coldness, cannot understand why she does not speak as much as the rest of the team.
Soft is for everything her electromagnetic wheels can slice through, soft is for every material that cannot stand up to abuse, soft is for the kindness that Tadashi Hamada had shown her when she first met him in that alleyway all those years ago.
Gogo bites her lip.
Soft is for the cloudy sky that marks the day she followed Tadashi to the right path, soft is for the sunlight that framed Honey's face when they first met, soft is for the smile Wasabi gave her when they became friends, soft is Fred's couch which she borrows when she's tired.
Soft is for the fond look Tadashi gives Hiro as he shows his little brother around their lab.
Soft is for the group hug they had after Hiro got accepted to uni, soft is for Tadashi's heart as he ran into the burning building, soft is for the licks of flames that killed their friend -
Gogo chokes back a sob.
Soft is for the crying Hiro does, soft is for the ashes he had to bury, soft is for the broken look on Wasabi's face, soft is for the mourning that Fred did, soft is for the tears that ran down Honey's face, soft is for the sobs she held back because she couldn't cry because softsoftsoft-
Soft is for Baymax and the light that enters their life after.
Gogo sniffs and wipes her tears and make sure no one sees. Tadashi Hamada was soft and that means he was stupid but she would not have traded him for the world and now she runs her hand through Hiro's soft, black hair.
It was worth.
