in the UK, if 100k sign a a government petition it will be brought to Parliament and debated. y'all know this country is suffering from some 80s-style bigotry right now, and this is one symptom: almost 200k fuckholes have come together to force the government to discuss whether it is 'appropriate' to tell children that queer people exist. this is a big symbolic victory for them. and i am burning with fury.

I can take care of myself.

You know, it’s taken me a long time to learn, it’s okay to fall, to make mistakes. I’ve made lots. It’s how you become a cantankerous old sorcerer.

The trick is to embrace your defeats as well as your victories. You pay for both in the end.

Be decent. Be fearless.

Do you know how refeshing it is to have actors that understand what it’s like to not see yourself in something?

I love Erin and Ruby, because they get it they know how much these characters mean to us.

To take the classic ‘Knight get’s the Princess’ trope, and to make it gay.

As Erin said, if she had these character’s when she was younger, it would have made it easier for her to understand the feelings she was having.

All of us that have struggled to figure out what we were feeling could have done with character’s like Kit and Jade, who don’t question that their feelings are for another girl, that are never shown it’s different to Boorman and Scorpia, or Sorsha and Madmartigan.

To have had that when I was 13 would have made a lot of things clearer a lot sooner, and I am so so so glad that young kid’s can look at these character’s and see themselves.

Kit, who isn’t a typical princess, she’s not girly. She has short hair, and prefers to be swordfighting than getting dressed up for a royal function.

Jade, who by all account’s isn’t a typical knight, she’s not a guy. But that doesn’t stop her, she’s never told that she can’t train, just that an elite group might not accept her to train with them, but they do.

For myself, I see myself in both Kit and Jade. I was never girly, I would rather be rough housing with the boys, climbing trees, playing football, always prefered short hair.

On the rare occasion I would play a game that involved princess’s and knights, I was always a knight rescuing the princess.

So to finally see me on screen, yes as two different people, but that’s me! That’s amazing. I’m 28 years old so to finally see that.

Kit and Jade will always have my heart. They will always be special to me.

Disney can never take them away from us. I’m sure I’ve said this before, but even if we don’t get anymore of them, if we don’t get season 2, Disney can’t ever take away the first lesbian princess, and her lady knight.
