Idk but I just saw this one post and I had to

the hollow knight series is known for its many many nonbinary characters, including but not limited to:

I think one of my favorite differences between Hornet and the Knight is the fact Hornet does canonically have pouches and pockets and kits and can obtain a (dead bug's) purse and (weighted) belt which definitely is what holds all her various rosaries and shards and seared organs ect. As opposed to the Knight who (based off Salubra's dialogue seemingly implying that it *doesn't* have a pouch or purse to store its fucking massive charm collection) just sorta probably. shoves things inside itself. because it is definitely not storing SHIT in its cloak and is NOT picking up any sort of accessories to help with storage. The fact that the shade is what holds your geo can be used as very dubious evidence for this as well, but considering it exists as a corpse runback and the same applies to Hornet with her cocoon, I'm hesitant to say that is the smoking gun it could appear to be. but seriously what the fuck kind of situation was it in that led to the discovery of "I can shove things inside of my hammerspace". Hornet really contextualizes how much of a freak the Knight is because what the fuck.

You do not have to justify every coping mechanism you developed to survive.
