#two bi characters

7. Is there something that could cause your oc to question their identity? What?

An excellent question! Hmmm, how to best answer this...

Xaja -- thought she was straight for years, then got hit on by a couple of women on Carrick and realized she liked it. She still tends toward men, but she can definitely appreciate women as partners -- she's openly bisexual. As far as her gender identity goes, she's pretty solidly a cis woman -- I'm not sure what would get her to consider another identity! She's a bit of a tomboy, but is definitely in touch with her feminine side.

Korin -- I don't know that he's ever questioned being a cis male, but he's definitely been down for sexual experimentation since he was a teenager with a vivid imagination and an insatiable curiosity. He found out pretty quick that he's bisexual. He did not like the situations where he had to try and embrace his feminine side though -- he appreciates and admires women, but definitely does not consider himself to be one.

Sorand -- He's had the most questions, I think! Gender-wise, he's mostly male with a bit of a squiggle. He self-identifies as male, but I think he's had some questions, since he's more in-tune with traditionally feminine things, like sporting long hair and being more soft-spoken and diplomatic. Sexuality, I assumed he was straight when I rolled him up 10 years ago -- when the idea of flirting back with Shara's original writer felt super squicky, I wondered if he was gay and so far in the closet he's in space!Narnia. But, the idea of flirting with a guy felt super wrong with him too -- so, he's ace! I think he's pretty comfortable with that identity now.

Reanden -- Honestly, I'm still not sure about him. He's definitely a cis male, that's never been in question! I think he's played around with his identity over the course of his career with the SIS and Imperial/Sith Intelligence, but he's come out of that pretty confident he's a straight man. Could he be swayed over for the right guy? Probably. But is he very content being married to Mairen and not inclined to look anywhere else? Definitely.

I think queer stories would be better if people stopped assuming that queer representation hinges on if two characters are romantically involved at all. Like the moment you accept characters as being queer without needing romance to prove said queerness then i think we'd find ourselves with a lot more unique, nuanced, and interesting queer stories. but by limiting queerness to only romance you are stifling queer stories.

Canon ace characters 🤝 canon bi characters

Getting erased and if we complain about it we're the ones having "headcanons" and stirring trouble because theirs is clearly the superior interpretation -.-

Demon slayer fans on tik tok astound me, because they say stuff like "You can't ship a queer ship, it's not realistic"

Realistic?

"Sorry bro we're two guys so we can't be together. Anyway, let's go fight man eating demons with our mythical breathing style while our crows talk to us"

Here's to the SPN writers who intended to write a dudebro toxic hetero man and ended up creating one of the most bisexual characters who ever bisexualed in the history of bisexuality. Oh, and Jackles' acting choices.

Avatrice

The growth!!!

The uncomfortable hug. Beatrice who barely knows Ava, but (although hesitantly) still comforts her.

The absolute pride Beatrice has in Ava’s success.

(Bonus: Bea realizing feelings.)

The emotional support hug. They are grounding each other. They are each other’s person.

The “we did it!” The “oh thank god you’re okay” hug. Both Ava and Beatrice latch on so quick and tight. They cannot bear the thought of the other getting hurt at this point

The hug of absolute relief from Beatrice that she did not loose Ava, and Ava so happy Bea is there to support her. (Bonus: the little neck kiss)

And finally The Kiss. Ava has been pining over Beatrice all season. Beatrice who is struggling with her feelings because of her vows. But Ava is about to go, and she cannot leave Beatrice without letting her know she loves her and how much she means to her. While also simultaneously showing how much she has grown because of Beatrice. Through “once you realize everything is not about you”, and then easily dodging Bea’s attack to pull her into her arms in the the smoothest way possible. Lastly, her new faith. She tells Bea “in the next”. After putting on the crown she realized that there is something else out there, something that will bring Beatrice back to her when Bea’s time comes. She isn’t running, not like she did before, she is saving her sisters and her Love despite knowing she is going to die. Beatrice made Ava better, and Ava made Beatrice better. Beatrice opened herself up to get close to someone again, more than even her Sister Warriors who, even them, she seemed to keep them at arms length. Season One Beatrice would do anything for the OCS. Season Two Beatrice would do anything for Ava.

So THIS, your honor, is character growth/development and slow burn at its finest.

Thank you, Warrior Nun.

In this life, or the next

My brain tried too hard to come up with a three in one idea for the lack of recent activity... I think I succeeded in only one. XD The plan was to do a pic for #mermay, plus a celebration for the new Little Mermaid movie (the classic is my fav Disney movie ever) and the Barbie mugshot meme... But there are no mermaid tails here and these are the classic characters soooo I just succeeded in the meme format I guess haha Please do not repost, edit or use this artwork in any way.

Hello MK fandom! Would anyone be interested in having their own Lin Kuei buddy? Samples are currently being made, so more details to come in the future! I'd like to see if there’s enough interest first to fully fund these lil guys 🫶🏼💜

Feel free to let me know what other characters you’d like to see!

Gaslighting myself into believing Ran and Shinichi are each others beards and fandom can't stop me.

Me pointing at these two: that is a gay man and a lesbian.

we all know that when jamie said “it’s funny when roy’s yelling at other people” what he really meant was “that was so fucking sexy i want to jump his bones rn” but unfortunately the ted lasso writers are cowards 😔

Part of me wants to make fun of Tim for being one of those rich ppl that cosplay poverty.

The other part is like I would also rather live in a neighborhood of working class queers than allocishet rich ppl.
