Yes hello may we pleeeease hear your t4t mechablazer / transfem Robert thoughts... I love your mind
YES HI HELLO THIS WILL BE VERY LONG !!!!
a little doodle as a precursor to the rest of this post :-) i apologise for any typoes...
Honestly Mandy to me reads more as a Cis woman lite in that BB is who she is when she's performing feminity- it's not an inherently bad experience for her, and she relishes in being BB, but becoming idolised and forced to perform under the pressure of societal expectation is moreso what scares her. Yes, Blazer is empowering for Mandy but it doesnt define her, and she enjoys taking the time to just be Mandy and be gender nonconforming in a way that gives her agency over her own identity when the persona of "Blonde Blazer" is so dedicated to The Public
I think BB can be trans i think the amulet HRT is doing that to her SLASH JOKE i actually think that Mandy works rlly well as a transfem woman who is very much GNC and while she loves being girly and feminine, doesn't like it when that becomes the defining factor for how Woman she is (synonymous with how BB is a public figure and therefore must always do heroic public services)
Both robert and blazer in that sense use Instruments to define themselves as their hero versions and I really love the idea of the mecha suit going from a husk of Roberts father -> To an actual piece of himself that is entirely his own
To me, Roberta is the byproduct of Robert bodily tearing himself out of this legacy of Mecha Man, in that so much of his life has been constructed around this concept of "Being Mecha Man Is All You Have" and it basically is, it's all he has of his father, of his grandfather, but now that he has a support system and something to live for outside of his persona (that isn't loadbearing on literally 1 dog) he can craft an identity that isn't tied to trauma that stems from masculinity, or rather the very very warped version of it he had seen come from his father.
Because that's what it really is. the idea that he needs to Get Up and follow in the footsteps of the men before him or he's nothing. That's basically what his life was at before SDN and the z team--- By literally being placed in a scenario where she's forced to reckon with the vulnerability that comes from being out of the shadow of her father, can she really form an identity for herself, and let herself fall back on a support system that love her despite who she might have been before
Therefore, she deserves to be a woman. I think she'd find it extremely liberating to really feel out the parts of herself that she could never experience when she was trying to mold herself into the person her grandfather and her father used to be. To shed the scar tissue that the legacy left behind, to put it in simply.
BB had a habit of brushing Roberta's hair before and it's an even more treasured pasttime now that Roberta is growing out her hair
Roberta doesn't plan on voicetraining or undergoing HRT any time soon but she's added a little "A" to the end of her name on her lanyard.
Blazer is sooo so excited to lend Roberta ANY of her clothes but they're always too big for her which is endearing at first but very difficult when the cups of the bra need to be stuffed with socks
They do eachothers nails and makeup which sometimes culminates in Roberta having to dissociate and hug mandy for a really long time because it's the first time she's really experienced such tenderness through the learning process of something. Whether it be how to do her mascara or how to hold the eyeliner or how to detangle her hair
