Day 3 - The Caregiver
Title: We make do (with these broken bodies of ours)
Fandom: Black Jack
Characters: Pinoko, Black Jack
Rating: T for body dysphoria, surgery mentions and medicine.
Summary: Life and beauty can be paid for. In fact, it’s much easier to live if you have either money or health. Pinoko and Black Jack have neither. Nor can their bodies be “fixed” so easily. And Pinoko will never be a woman, in body.

Pinoko makes me feel many things and it's always pretty disappointing to see her in anime adaptations. Her life is pretty much a tragedy but she's so upbeat, she became a big motivation for me.
Thank you!
