Lucréce eyes had flickered in mild confusion for a moment at Leriun's initial words, and he glanced over at him, catching his revelation. He blinked slowly, then nodded. He'd suspected the man was transgender, but it wasn't as though he would've asked about it. His eyes showed some surprise that Leriun's mother was apparently so supportive.
He was a little jealous, he supposed. "No, I... I like hearing you talk," he said rather dumbly, then blinked, inwardly flushing at himself. That wasn't what he meant, though it wasn't false, per say. "I mean... you're interesting. You're kind. You, ah..." he dithered, unable to explain himself properly, and finally decided an admission of his own might cover up the strange words. "I... my mother, ah. Um." Think. Breathe. "I... was... raised as a girl," he murmured quietly, staring at the smoke trail coming from his cigarette, rising in tatters in the air as his hand shook a bit. "And it was fucking awful," he said, not without a shake of a laugh in his hushed voice. He should also explain; he should explain why he was wearing a dress, why he was a prostitute in a nightclub, why he was shaking and why he hated mothers. But he couldn't say much else past that, at that moment; his mouth was too busy puffing on the cigarette in his fingers, as if to draw some kind of stability and courage from the smoke.
But there will come a time
You'll see, with no more tears
And love will not break your heart
But dismiss your fears
Get over your hill and see
What you find there
With grace in your heart
And flowers in your hair
