Miss Me With That Straight Shit

Poor girl stood up too fast

it’s on sight. what is “it,” you ask? homoerotic rivalry

On it!

So I'm halfway through Gideon the Ninth and how come nobody has told me about Dulcinea?? She's so good, you'd think people would go bonkers over her

Ah.

Ngl ive had Gideon the ninth in my to read pile on my kindle app for months and this post is what inspired me to finally open it now

Ah, I see.

......well now I'm curious.

Mizu being married to a man when they presented as a woman and being happy until they showed skill in a 'masculine' way and their husband called them a monster. The narration describing a 'vision of heaven' as an injured Mizu sees a group of beautiful women surrounded by a rainbow. Mizu being unable to conceptualise their attraction to Taigen until they see two men kissing. They find women attractive but turn down a woman's advances because they can't give away their biological sex. They were attracted to a man in a way that was straight and attracted to a different man in a way that was gay. The story where Mizu is both the ronin and the bride. She was a wife but he's no wife.
