AU ASK ‼️

how r the mantis lords doin in this AU?

They're doing well!

The mantis sisters are off doing their own things these days

"Traitor Lord" (I just call him TL) lives in greengrotto (au greenpath) with his wife, she's wheelchair bound so he does everything he can to be the best husband to her

on that note, Ze'mer and her daughter Rose visit TL and his wife (IDK I HAVEN'T NAMED HER YET) once a year, TL always says how much he can see TC (traitor child) in Rose, even though TC passed away from illness long before Rose was born

Trans Traitor Lord:

My head cannon is that Traitor Lord is trans as sometimes female mantises eat their mate. I have heard this headcannon a few times but under the pretence that the male mantis always gets eaten by the female ones after doing it. Only about 20% to 30% of male mantises get eaten. Regardless of this information, I enjoy the idea of trans Traitor Lord.

Edit: Something to add is that I think that the Mantis Tribe doesn't typically have traditional gender identities like the majority of Hallownest. The Mantis Tribe treats gender as a style then more of a societal role.
