Your emotions are directly connected to the weather that your small village will experience. If you are happy, it's comfortable, warm, and sunny; if you're sad, it will rain; if you're angry is can cause thunderstorms or a burning heat that causes fires. You are not aware of this fact, but your entire village is and will manipulate you in order to feel the emotions they need to survive - writingprompts tumblr somewhat angsty
"Stop fucking crying you little shit!"
I slammed my fists on the table angrily. "Don't talk to her like that", I growled. "Useless kid, go fucking die just like your mother did."
He went into his room, slamming the door behind him. Ruby was bawling on the couch, tears streaming down her red puffy eyes. I rushed over and cradled my little sister, 'Come on Rubes, we'll be okay.."
She cuddled closer into the embrace, her tears wetting my sweater. It was more like me trying to convince myself that it would be okay, even though I knew deep down that everything was just a big shitty mess.
Rain splattered on the windows, grey clouds filling up the sky. I tried so hard not to break down right there, if I could only cry with my sister, tell her the truth. Tell her that things weren't going to get better, tell her that mum was a fucking cunt.
Thunder rumbled outside, making Ruby whimper a bit. "Is dad going to be okay?" She looked up at me hopefully, her eyes lighting up a bit. "Yeah", I whispered.
It really wasn't fair for Ruby, ever since she was little all she had to deal with was her mum disappearing and dad becoming an alcoholic.
It scared me because I knew that if Tai continued like this he would end up destroying his life. I was partially mad at uncle Qrow for never visiting, never helping us out. But it wasn't his fault, he was a busy guy. No one was left to help us. Rain came down heavier as I picked up Ruby, carrying her to her room and putting her down on the bed softly.
I left her room, closing the door softly. I sighed, leaning down on the door tiredly.
I was so tired of everything now a days. The bad weather outside, Tai always coming back drunk and taking out his anger on Ruby, I didn't want to deal with this. But I had to.
…
Knock knock knock
I opened the door to see uncle Qrow, his slicked messy black hair looking a bit more grey than the last time I saw him. "Hey kiddo.."
He looked at me, probably thinking about how bad I looked right now. I was a mess, I barely had time to sleep, all my thoughts on what would happen. I let him walk in, closing the door behind him.
The sky was grey, clouds still hanging around in the sky idly. It had been like that for a long time now, I didn't know why. It just added to my sadness since it was so gloomy everywhere. "Where's Tai?" He asked me, his expression hesitant.
"In his room probably-" Tai burst out of his room at the moment, stumbling out into the kitchen dizzily. Speaking of the devil.. I eyed him with disgust, watching him take out pills and taking 3 pills at once. Qrow stood there awkwardly, watching Tai gulp down his water.
"How is he?" He asked me like he wasn't even there. "You know, still getting drunk and yelling at Ruby."
He turned to us like he finally noticed we were there. "Yang! I-" He cut himself, rubbing his arms shamefully. "I'm sorry", he muttered. I stood there, looking down at the floor.
I don't care." I turned to walk away but found my arm getting grabbed by Tai. "Please Yang, you have to understand-"
"Let go of me", I responded coldly, Qrow watching from the side. "Yang I didn't mean to yell at Ruby-"
I ripped my arm from his grasp, turning around fully. "If you didn't want to yell at Ruby then wouldn't you stop fucking drinking!?" He looked down shamefully, his unruly blonde hair falling covering his eyes. "If you really didn't want to make our lives so fucking miserable you would do something about it! You would stop drinking and be a fucking father!"
A loud thunderbolt came down, hitting somewhere near us. I breathed heavily, trying not to cry. Tai looked at me sadly, turning around. "You can't keep running away from your problems you know!"
Tears were now coming down freely, anger was all that I could feel. "They're going to come back to you and when they do me and Ruby have to deal with your shit!" More thunder came down, echoing loudly across the farmlands. The heat started to rise, Qrow fanning himself nervously.
Tai continued walking away towards his room, closing the door quietly. "Fuck you!" I opened the front door to take a walk only to find that the heat was unbearable.
I looked to Qrow to see him staring at me with a serious expression, glancing outside the window nervously.
"Yang.. I'm not going to force you to calm down.. But Ruby can hear you.." I stopped in my tracks, looking back upstairs. I could see Ruby staring at me in shock. My anger dissipated, immediately rushing upstairs to comfort Ruby.
The heat died down, the air finally becoming cool again. "Ruby.." She looked at me sadly, rushing over to give me a hug. "Yang.." I embraced her tightly, afraid that she would disappear if I let her go. "You can't leave me Ruby.." She nodded, leaning into the embrace.
…
"The girl has been torturing our crops lately."
Qrow nodded slowly, trying to think of an answer. "I say we kill her", a voice from the side spoke out. Qrow glared at them, gritting his teeth. "One, I am not letting anyone touch my niece. Second, who knows what will happen if we kill her? The risks are much higher." Everyone murmured in agreement.
"Can't we just make her happy?" Ghira's voice spoke out. Qrow looked at him thoughtfully, tilting his head. "She's got no one right now. It's easier said than done."
He paced around the room, trying to think of a solution. "Then why don't we give her friends?" Qrow looked at him curiously, pondering on the idea. "My daughter and her friends can accompany her."
"I'm not opposed to that idea.." Qrow started, trailing off before staring at Ghira. "She's going to eventually find out you know. She's not as dense as everyone thinks."
But it was too late, the idea was stuck in everybody's head, and they were too focused on their selfish needs of keeping their farm nice and healthy. "We'll cross that bridge when we come to it", Ghira tried to reason.
Qrow sighed. There was no more arguing, it would be done. "It is decided then, my daughter and her friends will befriend Yang for the sake of all our crops. Meeting dismissed."
People got up and went to the exits, leaving just Qrow and Ghira. "Do you actually think this is a good idea?" Qrow asked carefully.
"No."
