((Song is 'Keep Your Head Up Princess' by Anson Seabra))You weren't sure how you were gonna tell him.
You were decided on the fact that Albedo was gonna be the first person to know. He was your best friend. And he always supported you, in a weird, rational, clinical way of his own. You wondered if he'd be able to support you in this.
Your mom seemed like she would be fine with it. And you'd never met your dad. But you still wanna tell Albedo first. And it's not because you have a crush on him, or anything, although you do.
Albedo should be in the lab around this time.
You make your way there."Albedo?"
"D/N ((dead name))? I'm busy, dude."
"I need to tell you something, can I have a moment?"
Albedo was performing some kind of experiment. "Can it wait?"
You pull up a stool and sit down next to him.
"Not really."
Albedo sighs and turns to you, "Go on, then, and quickly, dude."
"Uh, so that's the thing, I'm not a dude."
"Do you find that word derogatory? In that case-"
"No, Bedo. I'm a girl. I am trans."
"Oh. You sounded way too nervous for telling me you're trans! I was afraid that you didn't want to be my friend anymore, or something."
"So you're fine with it?"
"Of course, why wouldn't I be? What would you like me to call you now?"
"Y/N. My name is Y/N."
But he's not, is he?
Over the next year, you slowly transition socially. You change your entire wardrobe, and get your hair to the right length, which helps you feel a lot more like yourself. You ask everyone to use she/her, or they/them, and that feels better too. Your mother Alice is fine with this, and helps you through it all.
Albedo said he was fine, right? But then why is he drifting further from you? He's been getting closer to Kaeya, and Sucrose, and all the like. Earlier, you were his best guy friend, now, you're neither a best guy friend, nor girl friend. You're stuck somewhere in between the two.Albedo still talks to you, and treats you kindly and is your friend, but it doesn't feel like before. He seems more nervous around you. He never meets your eyes.
This changes one day.
You have a school dance coming up, and everyone has a date. Except you, I suppose. This wasn't a big surprise, though.
Until it was. Albedo suddenly approaches you with some of your favorite flowers in his hand.
"Hey, Y/N."
"Hey." You greet as you dug through your locker, looking for some papers you swear you had. "What's up?"
"I wanted to give you this..." You accept the flowers, wondering if he's doing what you hoped for. Maybe, just maybe, your crush was reciprocated. "...and ask if you would come with me to the dance?"
You shove the flowers in your locker and give Albedo a bone-crushing hug.
"Of course I will."
"Good."
The dance rolls around, and you are excited. You out on this amazing dress you got last month, it's your favorite color, too. You haven't gotten gender-affirming surgery yet, and you're not sure about getting it in the future.
But it still looks beautiful on you, right?
