Song: God don't make no trash.
Show: Bare
Context:... This is kind of confusing but a Nun is telling a boy to come out of the closet. You'll understand more as you read.
What's the song?: Gaia's dialogue.
Good song?: If you're okay with Bible jokes.
A/N: I'm going to warn you this has some religious roots if only because the musical itself tackles large religion related issues. This gives it a funny-ish turn and also has a slash pairing it so be warned of that. I'm also totally convinced Gi is in love with Linka. Please don't ask me why because I don't even know myself.
Gi's glances at Linka didn't go unnoticed, that light redness in her cheeks whenever they touched and subtle (a word that Wheeler had yet to grasp) lingering glances at places that we aren't exactly friendly, had not gone over the earth spirits head. This mission briefing happened to be one of the worst yet.
"Gi. Sit."
Gaia motioned to a chair near the planet vision and Gi grimaced.
"We need to talk about what's been bothering you."
"I – I'm going to be late..."
"Sit.
She sat uncomfortably in the stiff bamboo chair squirming back and forth due to nervousness.
"I don't think you understand..." She trailed off as Gaia's eyebrows shot up to the heavens.
"Hon, I've been around long enough to hear you loud proud and clear."
Gi bit her lip and looked down. She probably could have assumed Gaia could tell who she's in love with, particularly because was Linka.
"But I can't it's wrong... It's –"
"Please, when God sits on his mighty throne and says 'what shall I make today?' He don't grab no drawing board there's no mistake the man don't play. He simply opens up his heart out come tumbling works of art."
Gi opened her mouth to make a point but couldn't force the words out. What Gaia said was true...
"God don't make no trash."
Gaia's imitation of the fire Planeteer was poor but definitely got the point across.
"People need to stop and think it ain't a rainbow without the pink." Gi giggled. "Ignorant folk playing judge and jury they're the ones that are going to know God's theory."
That hit home for some reason. All her life she had been surrounded by meanness and bigotry towards differences. She'd been disliked intensely for her decision to join the Planeteers, if she'd come out of the closet... She could probably never go back home.
"Oh you better believe it, they all play the fool, So caught up with hate that they forget the Golden rule."
Ha. True. Hate is the one thing her family and her entire church never shied away from.
"You better believe it you're who you need to be. Cause God is love, love is true, love is life, and love will set you free!"
Gi smiled sadly though she knew Linka loved Wheeler. She never had a chance.
"I'm so confused Gaia."
"Nobody has all the answers remember the lessons well if you hide from yourself and be someone else for someone else's sake that would be the greatest mistake."
Gaia placed a hand on the girl shoulder and gave small smile to encourage her.
"Go on, there's some tidal waves that need stopping."
The water Planeteer dabbed her eyes and dashed out to the waiting Geo cruiser.
God don't make no trash, Gi" she turned to watch her Planeteers help more of God's creations.
