Rhibear ~ Madam Solo ~ Dark Brooding Girl ~ Accio Jedi ~ Gryffinclaw ~ Just a doll 97. Dictionary Setting: a library in Rouen, France; 2063
Gaston usually loved coming to the library, but today he didn’t feel like reading or drawing with the pens and paper from his mother’s desk. He was too distracted by the name the boys on the playground called him.
Marceline noticed her son’s sadness and asked what was bothering him. “They called me… I don’t know what it means.” The whispered name made her blush, but she suggested looking it up in the dictionary. The definition brought tears to Gaston’s eyes. “Am I really… that?”
Marceline held him, blinking back her own tears. “No, you’re a sweet, kind little boy.”
