#trans laszlo

Has a canon other first name and is addressed “Leslie “Laszlo” Cravensworth” if that isn’t some some terf island bullshit about addressing trans people idk what is

He gave himself a name with the same first letter as his birthname. textbook tguy behavior

“Oh I had leprosy on my dick that’s why it looks like that” yeah right buddy

Doesn’t actually give too much of a shit what you call him bc he’s too old so he’s generally he/they/it but he also loves a scrap so if you’re rude about it he will kill you

Laszlo is …. a little bit of a short king

look

Oh my God you’re enabling me haha, I have so many…I also kind of want to write a fic ? We’ll see.

Anyway…

-I think human!Lasz was essentially very depressed about his condition; being a transman back in the 1600’s—and he also was not liked at all by his father. Even less so when he started to wear men’s fine clothes, to stand straighter (look, Matt Berry is tall and I like that about Laszlo,) and to try and deepen his voice.

-He kept his long hair, but styled it differently, attended masked balls to try and meddle with others without being recognised, and I like to think he sometimes would stay with the musicians, or in more artistic spaces.

-There’s definitely been incidents where he attended high class parties and introduced himself as Lord Laszlo Cravensworth, before his father barged in and corrected him, openly, thus wildly mortifying the both of them for different reasons. I think that’s where Laszlo learnt to stand for himself and not take shit; he was always the kind to be a little extravagant and not afraid to speak his mind, but I think those experiences really forced him to impose himself and not be afraid.

-I still am not sure how I can explain his physical transition, though I am leaning towards the witches. Somehow they made him able to look like the vampire he looks like nowadays (so post turning,) but I haven’t given much thoughts about it yet !

-c.f some post I have made some days ago, but I think the first time Nadja and him met he was still young, around his late 20s, (and he looks like, mid 40s as a vampire) and he introduced himself as Lord Laszlo, of course, and Nadja was just like, “wow he smells good, he has such pretty lashes and a lovely mouth, he must taste even better.”

-I know I called for magic for his transition but I’d still wanna give him scars, because I Said So and I like to draw them. :)

-I think his nanny and his mother were most supportive of him, back then, and that’s also why his father took the nanny away—because he did not want her to enable him. To me, the necklace we see him wear mostly in 4x01 is a gift from his mother, that she gave him as a talisman for luck and care, as a way to tell him that no matter what she’ll look after him.

-In some instances where Guillermo is also trans, I like to think they have that kinda understanding and quiet bonding. I think it’s sweet ! Love that for them !
