ASH IS 100% TRANS

Howdy! I’m guessing this is meant to be an ask encouraging some headcanons, so me and mod mod impaler arrow whipped some up.

It took Ash longer than most tocome around to the idea that she was, in fact a girl. She danced around theidea for quite some time, because she believed that if she ‘really was a girl’she wouldn’t be interested in going to war, armor, brawling, you know…traditionallymasculine stuff. Basically, she needed to actually take the time toself-reflect. She’s definitely the kind of person who is more action orientedand in the moment but…things had to come to a head at some point. This occurredin her late teens before she went about joining the armies and becoming thesiege machine we know today. As is characteristic of her, once she wasconfident in who she was and what her decision was going to be, she was quickto tell those closest to her. I think they’d be supportive.

Now, I know physical transitionisn’t terribly as important to being trans as a lot of people think, but it isan interesting line of thought to consider how this process works in the realm. You know, given the existence of magic, futuristic technology, and mysterious energyholding crystals. But hey, look; if Pip can turn people into chickens there’ssomething that can transmogrify someone’s junk.

…Okay, I apologize, back ontopic:

Honestly, Ash is prettycomfortable in her own skin. When you’re as strong and armored as she is,people tend to take your word for whatever you say. She holds a prettycommanding figure too. Is her relationship to femininity a bit complicated?Well, yeah, that’s definitely a thing. She’s not opposed to being feminine onprinciple; she wears some of the markers that she likes. The slight curves andthe detail work on her armor for example, or the way she wears her hair,slightly longer and dyed red. But, that’s the key thing here: it’s just anotherpart of the whole of who she is. She’s a very raw, real person.

She’s very open and honest andhas that sort of confidence about herself that is so very, very, Ash.

Wow, I love Ash.
