And another thing! Literally any queer story that takes place during the colonial age would have a huge gaping hole in it if it didn't have anticolonialism as a theme. Especially one that centers indigenous people. Like the reason that every culture had their own concepts of gender until something happened and then suddenly the gender binary was ubiquitous is because western European colonial powers made their view of gender the only acceptable one as part of christianizing and colonizing the world. You're not gonna have a show set in 1717 in the Caribbean where the love interest is a gay Maori man and the main deuteragonist is a non-binary mestizo catholic and just skip over colonialism. Like these are exactly the people who western gender roles are being forced on at fucking gun point during this era. Jim and Ed are both mixed race characters who's gender and sexual identities are in active defiance of the colonial powers that be. And this is the fucking Stede Ed and Jim show.

And there's something to be said for the fact that Stede's toxic masculinity plot line is internalized and Ed's struggle with toxic masculinity is largely external in the form a white guy who rubs elbows with the British Navy when Ed doesn't behave to his standard of masculinity. That choice didn't come out of nowhere and it shows a deep understanding of where homophobia comes from. That's not to say that precolonial communities of color were paradise for people that we today would consider queer but the rich tapestry of sexual and gender expressions that existed in those communities were erased in the name of colonialism. That's going to affect literally any queer person at the time when OFMD is set. These two things are inextricably linked.

Like when David Jenkins says a lot of what we're taught about being men is wrong, motherfucker who taught us what a man was. Who taught Ed what a man was? Who taught Stede what a man was for that matter? It's the white dad with the English accent who is violent (derogatory) and overbearing.

Like you get what I'm saying right? Like it's a silly little rom com but also it must necessarily be that deep because of who these characters are and when and where they exist.

no, the Emperor never tadpoles the player character

- if you play dark urge, that was ORIN IN MOONRISE TOWER WHILE YOU WERE INVADING THE ILLITHID COLONY IN THE UNDERDARK. She left you in a pod you can have astarion taste test. Kressa boneflayer conducted experiments on your thralled self

- if you play anything else, it's the mindflayer in the goblin camp who you interrogate with speak with dead - and who the narrator confirms as being the one who did it

Ok but fr except for a few fanfictions the topic of who the fuck has taught the bsd characters how to read is fascinating. Like, only a few went to school that we know of - again, who the fuck taught Chuya or any of the sheep how to read. Do the sheep know how to read? Like, I learnt before school through my sister, but like, being able to read and being able to have reading comprehension are two connected but different skillsets. Does Q know how to read. Did Dazai go through any meaningful amount of basic education. Akutagawa??? Did dazai fucking sit down and teach him how to spell??? In this essay I will-

experiencing terrible computer problems, but whenever I crawl out of that pit, caesar enjoyers will be thrilled to know that in my journey to make a comic about the queen of bithynia allegations, he has in fact become somewhat compelling to me in a 'wow so this is what you're like as a fully realized indivudial in my head,' and 'oh you have unparalleled arc villain potential,' sort of way. he even has a consistent character design that isnt Octavian with slightly shorter hair.
