(slarpg spoilers)

in act iv of the story a character acknowledges previously facing transphobia in their life in broad terms - few specifics are given

both of these were for kris so i mashed em together ! (one ask didnt pick a letter so i assumed they meant the first of the options on the '2' line, sorry if it's wrong!) kris is so poseable. my favorite little fashion doll

ooh okay i have some thoughts. i definitely believe that zelda was radicalized as a young teen. like, all the gossip mongers and rich nobles are talking shit about her, and constant forced devotion to an organized religion is ruining her entire life, of course she's going to realize the system is fucked. she's spent her whole life training to become a full blown Queen so she's definitely been attending council meetings and she's certainly not naive or unaware of how corrupt and classist the very idea of a monarchy/nobility is. she's got an inside perspective. it's just that this corruption benefits all the other royals/nobles except for her. so before the calamity, she already has the idea that there's something very wrong with the way her kingdom is currently being run.

so how exactly does zelda act on this post-botw? idk, i have several conflicting answers. i like the idea of her wanting to completely fade into anonymity, living in hateno with link and letting her country live on as a semi-anarchist society like it has for 100 years (no federal power, just each small village or settlement having its own independent leadership. i mean, that worked pretty well didn't it?). i can also imagine zelda giving up her divine right and turning hyrule into a democratic republic, allowing the people to elect a chancellor and officials from all over hyrule. lastly though i really do love the idea of a queen zelda and prince consort link.... all royal and fancy..... and if zelda were to resume her role as queen, she would still be the most revolutionary queen in hyrule's history and probably be responsible for great social and academic advances in the kingdom.

so really i have no idea what happens and now i just have three separate post-calamity au's that all differ from each other wildly. all i know is that zelda would throw her entire heart into making sure none of her descendants have to go through the hell that she did.

oh boy i love this

“So, uh, are you guys… scared? At all?” the lich asks, floating over the corpse of Captain Captain Bane.

“I don’t know,” Magnus wheezes, still making futile axe swings that pass right through him. “You did just kill a guy…?”

“We kill guys all the time,” Merle brags. “Get good, ghosty.”

Taako squints at the lich. His voice–and speech patterns–are so weirdly familiar. Someone who asked for an autograph at some point, maybe? Or a bureau member he didn’t bother to remember the name of?

Instead of expressing any of this, Taako says, “You’ve gotta up the spook factor if you want these beans freaked, my man. You’ve got this whole lich aesthetic and you’re wasting it on that voice.”

“H-Huh, yeah, maybe that would’ve been a good idea,” says the lich, and then more quietly, “Damn.”

“Also the guy you killed was trying to kill us,” Magnus adds. “So that’s points in favor of chill ghost.”

“O-Okay, just–fine. It’s not even me you’re s-supposed to be scared of, anyway. L-Listen.” The lich holds out his hand, and projections of familiar faces flicker across it. “Gundren, Brian, Jenkins, Sloane… this guy…” He gestures to the corpse instead of projecting Bane’s face. “Seemed like… sh-shitty folks, would you say?”

“Sloane was cool,” Magnus says, at the same time that Taako says, “Yeah, fuck Jenkins!”

Ignoring the other comments, the lich points at Magnus. “Yeah, th-that’s exactly it!”

Merle rolls his eyes. “Teacher’s pet.”

“You don’t have to be evil to, uh, want these,” the lich continues. “There’s this… th-there’s a want, a-a hunger, if you will. Makes these things–”

“Craveability,” Magnus says.

“Yeah, sure, that’s the one,” Barry says. His stupid speech is going completely awry. He really should’ve stuck to his cheesy-spooky script, for crying out loud. “It can’t b-be stopped, it just–it consumes everything, okay–”

“What does? The thrall? The relics make you want some doughnuts, is that what you mean?” Merle asks.

Taako adds, “I totally could’ve gone for some doughnuts when I was trying to use the sash earlier. Just sayin’. It was like, Taaaako, you want a billion pastries? And I was like, hell yeah, babe–”

“Christ, you tried to use the Sash?” the lich asks, dropping his barely-present character mask yet again. “Have a brain, Taako, you can’t get–”

“Oh, have a brain? Sorry I’m too simple of an idiot wizard for your ghost antics–”

The lich drags his hands down his skull, making a clattery-scrapey sound. “I-I’m leaving. Just keep in mind–just–this is your first lesson. See you later.”

And he’s gone.
