TAZ Pride Week Day 6 - Coming Out

Thacker was the dad of Amnesty Lodge, right? @tazprideweek

[Start ID: A digitally drawn 4-panel comic of TAZ: Amnesty characters Jake Coolice, Mama, and Thacker. Every panel except for the 4th one has a light blue background. Jake is a thin man with messy blonde hair that covers his eyes, tan skin, pointy elf ears, a white scarf, and a mutlicolor windbreaker. Mama is a chubby black woman with dark curly hair, dots for eyes, a dark brown coat, a white shirt, and grey pants. Thacker is a thin white man with messy dark grey hair and a beard, black eyes, glasses, a white labcoat, and a black shirt underneath. 

The comic goes as follows:

Panel 1: Jake, with a nervous look on his face, says, “Mama, Thacker? I’m Pansexual.”

Panel 2: Thacker, who stands in front of Mama, has an amused expression on his face. Mama looks at him unamused and says “Thacker. Don’t.”

Panel 3: Thacker smiles and says “Hi, Pansexual” interrupting Mama as she repeats his name again.

“This feels…normal,” says Dani, chewing on a three-inch nail.

Aubrey pauses. Her thumb stops gently rubbing over and over Dani’s knuckle, and only then does she notice that she’s been repeating that same gesture the whole time, absent-minded. She remembers that she has to pee. Truthfully, she’s sort of had to pee for the past hour, but kept refusing to make the fifteen-foot trek from the bed to the bathroom. It would mean overcoming her inertia enough to leave the comfort of the soft duvet, and it would mean her bare feet on the cold tile, and it would mean no longer holding Dani’s hand.

“Good normal or bad normal?” she asks. She can hold it.

“What do you consider ‘bad normal’?”

“Well, you know. Like boring. I feel like normal things are usually boring.” She shuts her mouth, then, and swallows. Is this boring? Was she bored?

“Well, I wouldn’t call  you  normal,” Dani answers, and her grin makes the freckles on her cheek shift.

Aubrey glances at the box of nails. “I wouldn’t call you normal either.”

“I guess not. I was just talking about…this.” She goes quiet after that. Both of them are submerged in the hum of the mini fridge and the air conditioning. Aubrey looks away and holds onto the air inside her mouth, just behind her closed lips. Dani, she has learned, is the type to get her words all in order before she says them. She has also learned–is still learning–not to interrupt the process by blurting whatever comes to mind, which, as it happens, is her usual response to silence.

If she stares at the ceiling long enough, it starts to look fuzzy. Like there’s a grainy film of static over the surface of the plaster. It makes her think of mist outside a window, of the big old tube TV that had sat in the living room of her house for her first few years of life and that had tingled warmly when she pressed her hand to the screen. Everything feels a bit fuzzy now, maybe because it’s 3AM. Everything feels warm and a bit familiar.

Finally, Dani says, quietly, “This is what I imagined it would be like if…if things had gone differently.”

[ID: A drawing of Hurley and Sloane. Hurley is a stocky, muscular halfling with tan skin and several scars on her arms. Her face is covered by a mask in the form of a ram’s skull, which has curling golden horns and a stylized red-orange sun on the forehead. She wears a white karate gi with gold trim, which has the sleeves ripped off. Staring at the viewer, she stands in front of a large, black, jacked-up truck. She poses with her elbow resting on one of the tires, a lit cigar hanging loosely between two of her fingers. 

Sloane, shown in profile, sits on the hood of the truck. She is a half-elf with dark brown skin and long, wavy, dark blue hair. A raven mask with abstract wing designs around the eyeholes covers the top half of her face. She is dressed mostly in black and dark gray, including a jacket with a collar of feathers. She glances toward the viewer and grins deviously while holding a glass of whiskey. The headlights of the truck give off a bright beam of light, illuminating the otherwise dark, rust-red wall in the background. End ID.]

A long pink-haired Lup kneels grinning front in center with her arms out. She’s wearing a trans flag shirt. Behind her is a green-haired Taako leaning over with a fist up, looking annoyed at Merle who is bumping into him. He has a Nonbinary colored-skirt. He and Lup have swapped left shoes. Davenport stands to the left of Lup. He’s a orange mustached gnome resting a fist against his chin and has trans colored laces on his boots. Behind him is Magnus, a large human with sideburns and ripped sleeves. He has his back towards the front showcasing the trans flag he’s wearing over his shoulders and gives a thumbs up. He’s holding Merle up by the back of his jacket. Merle, an older bearded dwarf, has his arms raised and is a clear few feet off the ground. He has an agender flag colored shirt.]
