Here's a drabble for the prompt 'initiative' from @absedarian's Berena January prompt list!
~
"I... Really like her."
"Well, what are you going to do about it, mum?" Elinor asks, already bored by the discussion of her mother's non-existent love life.
"Sorry? I - no, I won't do anything, I don't even know whether she likes me back!"
"Well, she's not some guy who's going to throw himself at you, women expect the dude to ask them out so you're just going to have to take the initiative or you're stuck in a sad lesbian standoff."
"...I'm not sure whether to be grateful for your advice or sad about the state of feminism, daughter mine!"
