ReZero Sideblog For My HeartBroken Heart

I've noticed some... not-so-nice behavior from the fandom regarding LGBT posts, and I wanted your opinion.

And it's this breeding ground for not being "caught off guard like an idiot" to such a degree that "debates" pop up for the stupidest of reasons. You'll find every bump in the road is a hill to die on for somebody. Posting on there and being a clean slate of neutrality is impossible. Because somebody will have a problem with you. Even if they don't have a dog in the fight, and it's just to relish in the fact that they can get you upset.

And when you have this kind of environment, that's when people that aren't exactly the best to begin with start hitting below the belt. Ragebait culture in particular runs rampant on there. To anger and upset is a goal that many are convinced to be proud of, even to the point of casually bringing up actual heinous stuff and not just nitpicky opinions.

So Subaru does go and gather everyone she's friends with (including the peeps from other camps) while being super shady about it, everyone is thinking it'll be something either super dire or not that serious, they're coming up with conspiracy theories on the fly. At some point they all convince themselves this is The Time™ they'll get a Subaru origin reveal

But then Subaru comes in, dressed up and looking like the most beautiful woman ever, and they inquire about it. Because of her own nerves, her inability to figure out a way to explain what being trans is to people from this other world, and also due to not understanding it too well as Japanese citizen from the year 2012, instead of coming out normally she just says:

"I'm a girl now!"
