omg anon OF COURSE

i have gone on and on about butchfemme mcvadi (here and here for example), and i will NEVER get off this train !! especially because it does really interesting things to their dynamic, particularly if cassie doesn't identify as a butch before her relationship with victoria. both of them exploring who they are to each other, who they are in a relationship in a categorically new way, at the same time, is really compelling to me. like yes, cassie is victoria's first girlfriend, but victoria is also cassie's first femme as a butch !!

i like to think victoria is incredibly possessive, which cassie finds incredibly amusing in social situations (victoria is never not touching cassie at group hangs), but also really touching for cassie on an emotional level. like victoria doesn't really think much of it, but her constantly expressing her desire for cassie in public ways always makes cassie a little teary when she thinks about it too much.

i know people see cassie as the dom in their relationship, but i'm 100% a sub-top cassie truther. especially in canon, i think she's hyperaware of how little control victoria has had over so much of her life for so long, i think she takes a lot of pride in being a counter to that, being the person that victoria feels comfortable enough around to direct (she also thinks it's hot). i see it as a very tell me where you want me baby kind of thing, especially because cassie, to me, is very acts of service; she wants her baby to feel good. meanwhile victoria is on some walk 'em like a dog type shit. and god does victoria enjoy that.

i think their relationship and experiences with finances would be really interesting (i know this is the most boring statement ever, but WALK WITH ME HERE). victoria is so privileged and also very gen z; she loves self-care, little sweet treats after work, and going to the spa and shit like that on the weekends. cassie, on the other hand, grew up thinking all that kind of stuff was a waste. she's also struggled with money and takes budgeting really seriously. i could see this going a lot of different ways! i could see victoria casually buying things for harrison because she thinks he'll like them and cassie feeling frustrated, but mostly at herself, because she knows it comes from a place of care from victoria. victoria trying to pay for dinners and things, and cassie feeling self-conscious but also conflicted about her self-consciousness. i think they'd both avoid meaningful conversations about it in the beginning, but after time, things would become easier. victoria FOR SURE loves buying flowers though -- that's not a debate. i also think cassie would be really honest about her internal dialogue of frustration, and that would be a good place of growth for them as a unit. and also victoria would SO drag cassie to the spa, and it would be the best day of her life.
