December 9th – Green

Suyin had always liked the colour green. It showed in her wardrobe as well as throughout her house; little drops of green were splattered here and there.

It was even more striking around Christmas; Su would make sure to get the tallest, greenest tree she could find, so it could throne triumphantly in her living room for the following month.

She and her children would cover it in red and gold ornaments, and somehow, it would end up looking even greener than it did before.

However, for a couple months now, Suyin had discovered a shade of green she loved even more, for it couldn't compare with anything she'd seen in the past.

Turning away from the tree, she took Kuvira's hand in hers, looking straight through her deep, emerald eyes.

The most beautiful Christmas tree in the world would never compare to her eyes.
