Show and Tell, Tuesday, Period Two
"So," Sparkle said, smiling wryly. "Last week of show and tell, and this week I'm leaving it up to you guys again. Not because I'm gonna, like, grade you on what you figure is worth sharing with the class or anything. This workshop is purely participation points. But because I've been giving you guys topics all summer and figure you might want to come up with your own, now."
And with that, he held up a little two-gallon fish tank with a double-tailed betta inside and grinned.
"This is Milady," he shared. "I got Milady last October when I was in an 'in America for Canadian Thanksgiving' funk, and I left her at Demon Marcus for a while. Alluka's the one who named her; Milady is a 100% certified AMAB trans-lady-fish, mostly because I didn't have the heart to correct her about that, and it isn't like Milady cares all that much either way. She's a fish." He grinned faintly. "A few months back, Milady came back home with me because I kind of needed some company at the time, and like a moron I forgot to leave a note explaining why she disappeared. So when Alluka decided that Milady had gone on grand adventures, Milady started sending postcards."
Sparkle laid out some copies of half-decently photoshopped pictures of the fish against such backdrops as the Statue of Liberty, Stonehenge, and the moon.
"I'm kind of jealous of her adventures, honestly. Milady is one well-travelled fish."
Milady was the best fish.
"Okay, your turn!"

Re: Show and Tell
"I mean, I'm sure there's something else in the world that you like," he pointed out. What a boring freaking life it would be if there wasn't. "But if you can mix this one up somehow instead of giving the same presentation twice, I'll allow it. How about a demonstration?"
Re: Show and Tell
As for other things she liked, sure. Of course. But things she liked as much? Well, not really.
