iāve been inspired by @gay-noodle-clan ās post and want to also share my own lgbtq mashle hcs!! iāve spoken about them on here before but a lot of them have changed over time and itās been a while so here!!!
Mash is 100% AroAce. I love seeing people ship him with Finn and others but in my heart I just cannot stray from the fact that he both entirely ignores Lemonās advances and the fanbook saying that, when asked for his type, Mash answers "I'm not sure because I grew up in the woods" which, of course, could very well be interpreted Alloromantically, but I choose to believe in AroAce Mash supremacy forever
Lemon has so much love in her heart for everyone. Just because she has a crush on Mash doesnāt mean she can only have a crush on men. I refuse to believe her attraction is limited to only one gender. Pansexual queen!!!
Finn my beautiful TransMasc Unlabeled king. He was actually my first Mashle character to hc as trans, and it was definitely in part bc he reminds me of myself and Iām TransMasc :) Anyways though, him being Trans just makes a lot of sense for his character and behaviors, and adds more intricacies into his dynamic with Rayne which I think is fun. I also believe heād not care too much about labeling his sexuality. He likes who he likes and thatās kind of all that matters to him.
Gay man. Not much more to say about that tbh. Conceptually I just canāt imagine him being romantically interested in a woman. It doesnāt feel right. I can also see Demiromantic in him but Iām not so inclined by it to officially add it to the list.
Dot is so Bisexual. I could also see Omni for him with a preference to women but in my heart i believe itās actually equal attraction/no preference, but heās so unbelievably dense he doesnāt realize it and just thinks all of those guys he canāt get out of his head is because heās jealous and he hates them (also true, but he doesnāt notice that he has a crush on top of that).
Abel is very much so a Gay man. Similarly to Lance, I canāt really see him having any interest whatsoever in women. However, he DOES have interest in Abyss.
Abyss is both Gay and Gender Apathetic. He doesnāt really care about gender much. As an AMAB though, heās inherently male aligned, but doesnāt personally have an attachment or interest with it. He doesnāt care if heās referred to as a male, given he typically is, but if referred to femininely he wouldnāt mind either. Heās only attracted to men, and is fine with calling himself Gay despite the technicality of not being a male.
Love I actually used to hc as a Lesbian with CompHet, but I think Bisexuality fits her better. Sheās just obsessed with people loving her, that doesnāt mean sheās not actually attracted to them at all. Anyways though, even though we only see her show attention towards men, thatās just bound to happen with a series with such a minimal female cast. I believe that not only would being romantic with a woman benefit her, itās also likely for her to have that attraction alongside having it towards men. Also I just think her being TransFem fits her vibe and she gets euphoria from having men be attracted to her.
Rayne is a Gay man in the same way Lance is. I donāt really have anything to say about this one. It just kinda exists tbh.
I think estrogen would save her and I will die on that hill. Itās just such a real hc to me I forget she isnāt canonically a woman. You know how crazy itās gonna be when she gets animated and everyone calls her a man?? Itās just not right!!!!!! Also, Omni was just kind of a vibe thing. I donāt have an explanation for that one. It just makes sense to me. Fem pref btw.
[Iām posting this on mobile and couldnāt include the picture due to the image limit, Iāll reblog with it in a second]
Cell is too queer vibed to not be queer. They are so NonBinary in my heart itās actually crazy that they arenāt canonically NB like Margarette is. Also, theyāre unlabeled sexuality-wise. Same as Finn, they like who they like and thatās kinda it.
Thatās all! Happy Pride Month and thank you for reading, regardless of if you agree or disagree with what I have said here Iād love to hear your opinion! Also, I hope you enjoyed the images I chose for each character. I started with Mashās because it was one of the first I saw in my camera roll and I thought it was funny, and decided to look for dumb looking ones for all of the others as well.
