Red Equals Passionate
[A glimpse becomes a look; they could not be more different but they still balance each other out. GenesisxRosso; drabble series]
Disclaimer: I do not own these characters or the FFVII franchise.
A/N: Even though he's the smallest of the trio, Genesis somehow ended up with a wingspan disproportionate to his height (see DoC secret ending). There is a cutscene in CC where he starts walking with his wing out and he falls (though that may have been because he was injured, degrading as well as being the wing's fault). Despite the seriousness of the scene, I can't help but find it funny. I'm guessing that in the beginning the wing would mess up with Genesis' or Rosso's sense of balance and that's where this piece comes in. Enjoy!
Balance
Why was life so unfair?
The first time he tried to walk with his wing out, Genesis seemingly had a momentary relapse into that stage in a boy's life when all four limbs suddenly are too long and some measure of clumsiness is unavoidable. The fact that he had the longest wingspan did not help much either.
Genesis watched as Rosso tried to do just that. So far, she had gotten the hang of it much faster than he did but still seemed to have some trouble with balance.
The ex-SOLDIER knew that would be one of the biggest, if not the most challenging, obstacle in helping the Crimson Tsviet adjusting to the presence of an extra appendage that, according to Natural Law, wasn't supposed to be anywhere on a human body.
Right now he felt as though his sex had gotten the short end of the stick.
Yes, he knew female humans matured faster than their male counterparts. Genesis guessed that in Deepground, circumstances would have forced Rosso to mature at a faster rate than most, mentally rather than physically.
When the ex-SOLDIER first tried this, he had fallen at least eight times, stumbled/ tripped fifteen times and his wing or Genesis had bumped into random objects or structures that knocked back or onto the floor if he was walking to fast. To his credit, that last one happened only six times.
On the other hand, Rosso had four falls, stumbled/tripped nine times and bumped into objects only three times.
Genesis eyes descended down to her legs, eyes narrowing as he looked at the culprit.
A curse on the bastard who invented high heels.
