Mother's Day
Mothers are the place that we call home.
On them we rest our heads and close our eyes.
There's no one else who grants the same soft peace,
Happiness, contentment, sweet release,
Erasing nighttime tears with lullabies,
Restoring the bright sun that makes us bloom. - Anonymous

Josh really isn't sure what to do this year. He ends up spending a good portion of the morning just up in his room, trying to sort his thoughts out. For as long as he can remember, he's always just gone to visit his mother in jail when this day rolled around and the meetings were never happy ones. The healer never knew what it was like to have a mother and with the routine broken, he's at a loss...

Josh was not the only one in the house without his mother this day. Avalon had never celebrated Mother's day - it wasn't a tradition on Naltor - but he did understand the feelings of sorrow that he attributed to Josh.

Following the emotions up to their shared room, the alien slips into the room and wanders over to where Josh is and flops down next to him. "Hey." he says simply, and then leans in to give Josh a warm hug.

	Josh glances over as Avalon walks in but doesn't say anything. He leans into the hug. "Hey," the healer replies softly. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	There really isn't anything that Avalon feels that he can say to Josh that will erase the sorrow that the other boy feels. This isn't the sort of pain one gets over easily, and it's certainly best not experienced alone. Wordlessly, Avalon enfolds himself around Josh and then just climbs up into his lap and proceeds to give Josh snuggles. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Josh doesn't have any words either. He just slips his arms around Avalon and holds on tight. (Reply to this)(Parent)
