------------------------------------------------------

it was your first day at cognito inc. 

"this young man, brett hand, will show you around! he's one of our best workers here." jr practically shoved the man into you, forcing him to stare right into your soul. 

jr gave brett a pat on the back and walked away.

"so, you're the new kid?" he held out his hand.

"I'm brett hand! nice to meet you!" he smiled.

you shook his hand, exchanging a very awkward smile.

"oh, uh, i'm y/n, y/n l/n." you nodded.

"that's a nice name for a ma-.. hmm.. wo- no... woMAN???" oh.

OH.

he can't tell.

"i'm sorry if this is rude, but are you a guy or a girl?" you just stared at him.

"uhh... I'm uh... neitherrr......" he looked confused. then he showed a look of 'oh! I get it!'

"so you're one of those other genders! aah, I see! and uh- what one of those genders are you?" he asked. okay. maybe he is nice!

"oh- uh- I'm nonbinary." 

he stared.

not a thought behind those eyes.

"I go by they/them...." you fiddled with your hands.

"cool! let's go to reagan and figure out what i call you!" he took your hand and dragged you away.

"my pronouns are they/them, dude." you grumbled while he was dragging you through a bunch of corridors.

when suddenly you reached a lab.

"yo 'reag!!" brett shouted to the woman working.

"uggghhh. what do you want now b-" she stopped her sentence when she saw you. she looked you up and down, studying you.

you shuffled to the left, hiding behind brett.

"yo, this is the new worker, and- uh... nonbinary?? what do I call y/n????" the girl sighed.

"you're hopeless brett. basically don't use she, her, he or him on y/n. let's say y/n was going to the shop. for a girl, it would be 'she is going to the shop', but for a nonbinary person it would be 'they are going to the shop'. do you get me?" she explained.

"ohhh!! so like, y/n is two people?? orrr... they just go by they!! I got it! thanks 'reag!!" he called back to the woman.

"stop calling me 'reag!!!!!!" she shouted back at the man as he dragged you off.

as you two were walking down the hallway, he suddenly said to you;

"y'know, you're pretty cool." he nodded, agreeing with what he said.

"oh, thanks." you smiled.

he put out his hand suddenly.

"friends?" he smiled.

you breathed in and smiled, taking his hand.

"friends."
