"Did you need to be so cruel!?"

[fcllederage]

Deep down, the queen knew Sabu meant no harm. He never had. All he wanted was to protect them. To protect her. He was kind and selfless, and empathetic. But this time, Hyacinthe chose to hear none of it. She was furious, fuming, enraged. "I don't want to talk," she snapped, as softly as she could, considering her mood. All of a sudden, the tall queen stopped and turned, barely looking down to match Sabu's eyes. "Didn't you just say you heard what happened? Why are you asking then?"

SHE KEPT HER PACE SWIFT, not leaving any room for him to catch up to her. but his legs were longer than her own, he was gaining on her at a steady pace. ❝ i'll take that as not well. ❞ decidedly so, her mood was worse than he could have imagined. not anticipating the tone that she had taken up with him. ❝ i wasn't intending to follow you, our paths just happened to cross. i saw a familiar face, you're not exactly difficult to place. i wanted to make sure that you were doing alright. the way you're holding yourself, it's clear that something has happened. i'll lend an ear, if you will let me. ❞

For a moment, Hyacinthe refused to say anything, both fuming and thoughtful, but as usual, she refused to let the anger out - maybe it was the wrong choice, maybe letting it out would have helped. "I don't get how you can be that stupid," she finally muses, her voice slightly angry but obviously trying to remain calm. However, as always, Sabu was merely a witness. He was easy to talk to. Easy to trust. "How can you even say something like that? And you know what the worst part was? The guy was so convinced and calm about it. He was like, yeah it's a legit point of view but I disagree, I think it's also queer people's task to make efforts to be understanding and patient because it's not natural to use they and to not gender people." Hyacinthe let out an exasperated sigh, shoulders raising and falling at the thought of this debate. "It wasn't even a debate. There's no debate. We don't have to make efforts anymore. We've made so much already and we still fight and educate others. It's such a cis-het way to think and it's part of the whole problem."

She shook her head and glared at Sabu as if he was part of it, of the problem, when he was precisely the opposite. But it was easy. He was always here to listen and to let her lash out when needed even though she hated the feeling. "And the most frustrating part was having to let go because no matter what I said, his only answer was basically I hear you but you're wrong. Ugh, I could have strangled him." And, as if the culprit was standing right in front of her, she gently wrapped her long fingers around Sabu's throat before letting them slip away and throwing her arms around his shoulders. "I'm sorry you always have to deal with my moods. You know you can tell me if I'm annoying?"

Deep down, Hyacinthe knew he was right. He had chased the men off all by himself - she still had no idea how he did that - protected them in doing so. That was probably what did not make sense to the queen. She could not understand why he had decided to protect a bunch of people he barely knew. "Thank you," she sighed, still on edge, shaking from head to toe. It was only the seven of them left in the cabaret at this hour. "Why are you here so late?"

❝ IT GOT THEM TO LEAVE, really why would we have needed to be kind? ❞ his words come with a thick accent. his ENGLISH is not well - practiced, but he does his best. slinging insults seemed to have faced no issue for him. it never fails him at the best of times. standing next to the queen at an impressive height, he can almost rival them in their heels. this was meant to be their safe space, what was the harm in telling off a handful of punks who cannot handle the rules? he doesn't find any remorse for the matter. ❝ don't worry about hurt feelings, ❞ ( nudging his face mask into place. ) ❝ they should have known respect before walking into the door. ❞

Hyacinthe walked angrily, determined not to stop, without looking back. She knew Sabu was trying to catch up with her, slowly succeeding, but she did not want to stop. "How do you think?" she snarled, furious. It was not his fault, of course. None of it was his fault, yet the queen could not help the rage that overflowed from her soul. "Why are you following me? What do you want?"

❝ YOU LOOK COLD, i suppose you weren't expecting this kind of outing. ❞ walking alongside of them, his footsteps against cold pavement. the night was still young, by SABU'S TERMS, but the majority of the city had run quiet. ❝ i heard about what happened, it must have been bad. how are you holding up? ❞
