#normal oak

normal oak rly gets to me bc like. he Has to be better than his older sister and thus cannot hesitate or make mistakes or show any negative emotion in any way, yet he has already failed. he's the second try, and has all the importance as the first but gets none of the grace of it. he's not allowed to be who he wants to be because he has to be better than that. he's both doing worse than hero and better than hero at the same time but he's not allowed to make any mistakes because the fact that he exists is a mistake in of itself. um. anyway i have a very normal mentality towards the way my parents treat me vs my siblings.

Trans MtF Normal Swallows-Oak-Garcia, who was raised gender neutral by his parents and weirdly feels like he transitioned NBtM

Normal Oak-Swallows-Garcia is such a trans girl to me I forget it isn't widespread fanon. Like cmon she literally wears the mask of a boy and her character arc is learning to leave it behind and express herself more truly without it!! That's an egg!!

I miss normal oak.
