D-Strucks' POV

I didn't expect him to ask me the fateful question so soon, yet here we are.
I glared at him, but his expression didn't change. I thought for a moment of the T-Trux in front of me, or at least beside me.

Fact is, he fights for equality of species, and I don't think I've ever seen him judge anyone but my brother and me, but I can't blame him. Looking back, though, he didn't judge Diana to be my daughter, the daughter of the trux he probably hates the most, yet he treats her like she's... his own daughter.

Ty: "...I'm not forcing you to answer, if you don't want to-"

D-Strucks: "It's me."

He looked at me confused, and I looked away.
Might as well try. At worst, I'll get a weight off my chest, and he'll hate me even more.

Ty: "...w-what do you mean...?"

I avoided looking at him, searching for the right words.

D-Strucks: "...I had her before transitioning, when I still had a... female body."

He was staring at me, not saying or doing anything. He stared at me for too long.

D-Strucks: "...come on, say something hurtful and hate me again."

He didn't answer me, he kept staring at me, until finally he opened his mouth.

Ty: "...how did your parents take it...?"

I didn't expect the question, but I answered anyway.

D-Strucks: "...they kicked me out, both for coming out and for... Diana, who wasn't even born then..."

His expression changed, from surprise to something more like pain.
Then he began to cry silently, but his tears fell.

I wasn't sure what to say, but I looked at him. After a few minutes, he noticed his own tears and apologized. Why the heck would he apologize because he has emotions.

Ty: "I'm sorry...it's just... I knew someone who was like you... she didn't make time to get a body that was right for her..."

I watched as he stared into the lava pool, and something snapped in me. He had the same expression I had when she left.

The same despair and the same pain.

D-Strucks: "...sister?"

Ty: "... twin, but she's always been more mature than me."

Only then did I realize how much he and I had in common, having lost a loved one who was at the same time a figure for us.
I don't know why I did it, but I laid my head on his, trying to comfort him.
We stayed like that for a while, although I don't even know exactly how long. Probably a few hours.
