ive been workshopping a bl4-ish fl4k design to go with my zer0 design that i slipped into this post for some reason

some of my fave bl characters and my hcs for them

This message doesn’t bother me at all!  The source is John Gardner’s novel adaptation “Grendel,” wherein Grendel states outright  –  both subtly and unsubtly  –  that he does not understand finding women sexually attractive, and then ogles men  +  professes attraction to them over and over.  I probably have the novel’s PDF laying around somewhere, but Gardner’s Grendel is what TWAU Gren is based off of, and Gardner’s novel is an interpretation of Beowulf  –  plus, Telltale    ( now defunct, unfortunately )    used to share a lot of gay art of Gren and were pretty open about his sexuality on their old social media.  There are also the various flirtatious options when interacting with him in-game as Bigby during TWAU, which weren’t at all accidental.

Lmk if you need anything else.  I have the screenshot sources here, but the post is old and I could have explained things in more depth;  still, if you want the most blatant stuff:  https://grrendel.co.vu/post/176876617631/please-give-us-the-text-that-proves-gren-is-gay

Hope that helps you start!  There are a lot of queer / gay analyses of Grendel throughout various sources of media I can link you to as well, but they’re easily googled if you wanna find them yourself.  It’s commonly accepted literary canon that he’s gay, and many portrayals of him throughout the centuries have depicted him as gay, so I think it’s safe to stake the claim that  …  yeah, Grendel’s gay.  It’s not really just one thing, but again  –  there’s subtext and then there’s just Text.  The link above is Text, straight up.  He Said That.
