Summary: Milo/Kida moment. She remembers her mother.
Kida lies awake sometimes and stares at the tiny bracelet on the table beside her bed. The gold glitters in the cold, blue light of her crystal. She studies it, remembers the hand that touched it, remembers the warmth of that hand pulled away by the cold blue light that filled her too before returning this tiny bracelet.
Milo's arms tighten around her. She thinks ruefully that he always knows when she's awake. "We'll give it to our daughter," he says softly. He strokes her hair. She admits, "I miss her." "She's still alive." Kida turns to face him, to brush away the stubborn hairs that fall across eyes that barely see her without his glasses. "In here." He touches her necklace. "Here." He touches the skin that covers her beating heart. "And here." His hand slides down to rest gently on her swollen belly. She glances toward the tiny bracelet as Milo holds her tighter. Memory blends with hope. "Yes," Kida says. "We'll give it to our daughter." Fandom: X-Men Story Summary: She was the daughter of crime-fighting legend: Raven Darkholme. He was the son of crimelord of the Thieves Guild: Jean-Luc LeBeau. If you can't take the heat, get out of the city. Canonical Notes: AU Acknowledgements: Dedicated to LithiumAddict or LithiumLaughter (depends on where ya met her). Happy Birthday! Author's Note: I am well aware that there are folks clamoring for the next chaper of this fic or that fic and that I have a handful of chapters, etc. that would take little work to get in order and posted. However, this is a much belated birthday present and very much due. I have never read nor written much in the way of noir. This is my first and likely only attempt upon the genre. I hope you enjoy.  | Other FicsAUTHOR'S NOTE: This is the home of all my fanfics not granted their own story arc.  StoriesAll |
