please please PLEASE send me asks abt this i am so eager to talk to ppl abt it
(rambles in tags)
#murder drones#murder drones ep 8#murder drones spoilers#md ep 8 spoilers#have i literally ever posted abt md on here i fucking LOVE md. me specifically as an alter especially it is my fave show <3#i want to BE cyn fr fr. shes soooo gender envy#0ph3li4.txt#i would word my thoughts more but even tho im a system myself im SOOOO fucking scared other systems will say 'wtf are u on abt'#but like#i dont think uzi's experience is a 1.1 paralell with being a system obv but i think functionally itd be v similar (to my experiences)#the previous hosts of the solver. cyn included. are not alters per se. i dont think uzi would use that term for them anywayz. but they are-#part of uzi and her 'brain' and whatnot. yk?#kind of like a new host taking over#so like#cyn /solver might be the main one uzi has to deal with#but i feel like theres potential that she could deal with the other hosts too.#do you think original cyn is in there at all?#ugh im gonna get so much flack for using the wrong term so lemme just start I KNOW INTEGRATION AND FUSION OR WHATEVER ARE DIFFERENT!!#that being said#i prefer the term integration to fusion. so.#in this scenario / au whatever i like to imagine original cyn is integrated with another part. most likely solver itself.#and in our experience with alters integating (not universal!!). some of their traits/mannerisms wear off on that part! so solver probably-#gained some of original cyn's personality traits / mannerims. but is still its own person.#tessa could also be part of the 'system' even tho she wasnt a host per se#idk#im yappin#please send asks abt this i will ramble forever and ever

Please post more about your transfem herald headcannon i beg of youuuu i am so intrigued
flattered that youre interested enough to wanna know more about transfem danny but also. bold of you to assume i can articulate my thoughts abt him at all 🗿 im so sorry this post is prlly going to end up incoherent. i recommend @/flystep for more posts about the hc though, they talk about it more than i do and a lot of my ideas have been pulled from or influenced by them, but! i would say most of my reasons for hcing herald as transfem boil down to what i said here:
#theres something in the way that herald conforms to the /ideas/ of what men and women should be like that makes me think that-if he ever ha#a real opportunity to play around with his gender- might lead to some revelations. i think herald is so sick of being what the world tells-#-him to be and that feeling would bleed into his gender identity
i dont think herald applies his standards of man and woman to other people (or at least not intentionally) but subconsciously does so to himself, especially because theres never really been anyone challenging his internal sense of identity that could push him to start questioning it. like, even with sentinel, most of the gender talks that happened were (im assuming) centered around daniels questions/comments than anything about himself. daniel lived– and continues to live– in an extremely controlling environment that taught him to be hyper-aware of the way hes perceived, and more importantly, it taught him that he needed to be perceived in the right way. hes been told his entire life that he has to present himself correctly, that there was no room for flexibility or experimentation at the threat of his home/safety/career. but i also think that its not a role he Wants to play– i think theres rebellion and defiance simmering under the surface, but there are too many stakes involved for anything to happen.
plus, daniel,,,,doesnt really think about his own identity that much???? or himself as a whole for that matter. like, im p sure he doesnt even know hes bisexual until sidestep (and Only if sidestep is nb/male). honestly im not even gonna try explaining this one im just gonna offer you this because it captures what i say perfectly and lives in my mind rent free. so yeah, i dont think herald wouldve ever questioned being a man lmfao.
i havent thought much about post transition daniel so i have no idea how hed present rip. i think hed really like wearing dresses but thats about as far as i know. ive seen both femme and masc and i like both interpretations so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ tbh though, i think finding his personal style requires both time and space to experiment, which is a luxury he doesnt have considering the demands and expectations placed on him. without something Seriously upending the way hes living at the moment, i dont think its something he would have the chance to explore even After he sorts out his gender. which is, of course, why im sending my beloved transman cyrus who refuses to take any shit to fuck his gender up.
Tumblr media
anyway have this sketch of m and f herald having a category five transgener moment. as a treat

Okay. Jordan.
First I absolutely love them. From the bottom of my heart. They give me gender envy so bad it's actually sad. Like. Really me brain is broke.
I just want to acknowledge the fact that when characters talk about them, in a general way, they use they/them pronoun.
(Except their parents, but it depicted as a bad thing. And even people who do not seem so okay with it, like during the gala or whatever, only used "kid" to refer to them. I don't know how much it's performing rather than just basic respect. Probably the former knowing the boys universe.)
But when characters have to use Jordan pronoun with them being here, they always use the pronoun they are presenting as. It didn't happen so much but yeah. I didn't notice at first. But after, it send me to another realm. It's such a nice touch.
Its not an exhaustive list but here you have some example of it:
Luke, at the party/bar at the beginning, just after Jordan changed: here she is. And Jordan was presenting as female.
Cate, after them being wipe, at the party, talking about Jordan and Marie being a potential thing: Leave him alone. And they were presenting as male.
A random girl, filming as Jordan start a fight to cause a distraction in the 7th ep: Against her own kind. And they were presenting as female.
Like can we acknowledged how smooth it is?
Because jordan - I'm not a boy, dad. At least not all the time - Li is canonically bigender. So like, they are trans but still seem to fit the gender binary. Like they are a boy or a girl, depending of the moment. Not something else or something in between.
I meant. I think this post is for people to talk about it. But mostly for fanfic writer to acknowledge it.
Because there was this fucking great fic on AO3 where they change pronoun depending how they are presenting. But all the other I read didn't. And I mean, I get it. But also, it's canonically wrong, I think. I didn't realize it before reading this fic.
Even though we never saw Jordan talk about their pronoun, but I guess their friends use the right one? Except Andre, who is like, why did you change. Or maybe they think it's easier to use the pronoun they are presenting as?
I don't know. I just want fanfic writer to do a conscious choice on it.

the she/theys vs he/theys and wlw vs mlm posts are symptoms of a larger problem within the queer community 👍
#1. lack of consciousness of beauty standards 2. no grasp of intersectionality 3. focus on online discourse and not queer theory#'discourse' used very literally there. this is not a sick dunk on Minors These Days#anyway we as lgbtq people are very focused on ourselves as oppressed that we dont realize how we are perpetuating/internalizing...#... oppressive beliefs#see how all 'g ender envy' is almost exclusively skinny *white* conventionally attractive cis people#i saw someone say something like 'dont tag as gender envy be yr own person' the other day#and that really opened my eyes ?#we can be so caught up in the politics of being trans (usually as yr only minority group)#that it basically turns into 'skinny white cis men are the ideal of manhood dont ask me why though idk'#its deeply internalized#same goes with the 2 posts i mentioned#ps. i KNOW gender envy is what you personally find enviable and you shouldnt forced to change yr attraction for political reasons#but its the same shit that cishet beauty standards have been for centuries#very similar to how the only models in magazines are skinny white cis women#they dont say that fat people/trans women/woc arent worth their pages. its implied.#we just need to think about what we're implying every day as a community.#also i have a personal thing against gender envy culture because you guys forced me to see FUCKING V OMITBOYX EVERY DAY IN LIKE 2020#/JOKE I SWAER. unless i get told one more time that im not really trans because i dont want short hair over my eyes. then i snap#<3

okay so. i challenged myself to try and draw some snakes and try to capture the features i want to stand out for them. i wanted to see if i could make them all look distinct but where its obvious they look extremely similar.
Tumblr media
heres the main lineup but i want to get into design elements for them as well as some personal headcanons.
FIRST! bibo.
Tumblr media
okay so. i'm going to toot my own horn here. i think his beard looks so fire and i did a good job. i imagine this design is around the portable ops era... not much else to say because most of the interesting stuff (at least to me) comes from the differences the others have from him.
V!!! I LOVE YOU V!!!!!!!!!!
Tumblr media
for venom snake, i made him look like big boss but Something's Off. in the game people often (notably huey and the boss' ai) don't recognize him as big boss for a few seconds. an imperfect replica because you cannot get that close with plastic surgery. i made the fat distribution on his neck a bit different from bibo's because i imagine the way that the human body configures itself is hard to change. if you noticed the little snake-tongue-shaped-hair-doohickeys, he is the only one with a slightly different shape. it's a genetic thing, you wouldn't get it. just thought that was silly. his hair texture is different, too. can u tell i like him a lot. also, my favorite detail might be his different nose shape. they never got bibo's nose right i guess. in mgsv, he actually has a bit of a downturned nose, and i honestly don't think i captured that enough.
TIME FOR MY FAVORITE BOY. LOVE OF MY LIFE. HOLDER OF MY GENDER ENVY. solid snake :3
Tumblr media
SNAVID! the most obvious difference here is his nose. he broke it as a kid lol. i love headcanons. there's not as much to say about him as with venom, but i can say that he is incredibly handsome and i like him. i think he is cute. was he free yesterday? if so i would like to have dinner yesterday with him yesterday. well... i will say that out of this specific lineup i think he looks the most like good old dad. which is awful and i feel bad for him.
FINALLY: LIQUID!!!!!!!
Tumblr media
i gave him his canonical sharp nose and high cheekbones! i based a lot of his features off how he looked as a kid so he really has little shit vibes about him. he also has thinner eyebrows, and i headcanon that he does them himself lol. he has less sideburny sideburns than his brother. his eyelids are also smaller. he also does look kinda like kaz so its plausible that he tricked dave! yippee! i also like drawing his hair. its such a great hairstyle. it reminds me of a lion's mane.
N E WAYS... i hope you enjoyed me rambling about giving these goobers a more realistic design for future reference. i like talking about this kind of stuff. life is so much better without same face syndrome.

begging people to watch Grease: The Rise of the Pink Ladies:
it’s got gays
strong female leads, some of which are poc (but not v many bc it’s based in the 50s) (edit since i posted this after watching only one episode,, hella poc !)
its a musical comedy
the music is insanely good
the choreography is so so good
it’s actually funny
drew barrymore loves it
gender envy for the greasers tbh
good storyline so far
the showrunner hired primarily people of color as the writers & directors of the show
also has a cute little peak at frenchie & rizzo as children (like one small scene)
anyway if you liked Grease i highly recommend bc i can already tell i’m gonna be hyper-fixated on this

Quick hot take:
The things that people accuse Uzi of being, other character did worse than her.
“Uzi is so toxic towards N—“ J was heavily implied to be physically and mentally abusive to N. And while in a lesser extent, despite V’s intentions being good and all, she still was down-right awful to N.
“Uzi killed her classmates—“ in a show called MURDER Drones. Literally a good portion of the cast has blood on their hands. Let’s also not forget Doll, bucko!
“Uzi is suck a pick-me—“ Rebecca and Emily are lying dead on the floor right there./j
Look up what a pick-me is, because that’s not what Uzi is. A pick-me is someone who projects misogyny and outdated stereotypes onto women just to put them down for male attention.
Now, tell me, when has Uzi ever done these things? When did she ever put other female characters down for their interests? When has Uzi ever went up to N or Thad, and went “girls are so catty”?
NEVER! She dresses alt and is neurodivergent and cringe!
“If the roles were reversed Nuzi wouldn’t be so popular—“ I would also like to say the same thing about Envy, but I’m not a fan of ship-bashing. And not to be that guy, but I would also like to argue that if J and N’s genders were reversed, J wouldn’t be as liked as she is.
TLDR: Uzi is not a perfect character. She is not a perfect victim. A lot of the things that her and the other characters do require context, but Uzi gets hated more.
I also already talked about in more depth as to why most of the hate Uzi gets is stupid in the past, so if this wasn’t as detailed or as thought-out as the last one, I apologize. I just wanted to get stuff off my chest, because I just found a resurgence in fandom stupidity.
I’m open to other opinions and critique, so don’t be afraid to body slam me into the ring.

Read this first
About me
You can call me Vi (pronounced like the letter V) or Envy (get it?) I use she/they pronouns and am genderflux and aroace. My gender is a spectrum that goes girl -> agender and includes everything in between so I may also refer to myself as whatever label fits most that day (such as demigender or agender).
Rules
read all rules before submitting an ask
• You may submit a fictional character or actual person or you can submit your experience(s) with gender envy.
• If you submit an actual person, please be respectful of them or I will delete your ask.
• If submitting a fictional character, please include what piece of media they are from.
• Keep it PG-13 and DO NOT under ANY circumstances include nsfw/sexually explicit photos/GIFs with your ask or you will IMMEDIATELY be blocked without exception and reported.
• If requesting more than one person/character, please make separate asks for each one. The only exception is if they are a pair/group in the same piece of media. You can make as many requests as you'd like, but please no more than 4 a day.
• If you request it non-anonymously I will tag you as the requester unless you request otherwise. (how many times can i say request in this post) If you request it anonymously, remember to check back and see if I've posted it under the #by Anon tag.
• Do not be disrespectful of other's gender identities, pronouns, romantic/sexual orientations, or any other identities (such as aplatonics). ANY gender identities (including cis) and orientations are welcome as long as they are in good faith and not somehow harmful or mocking of others. Bigots, -phobes, or exclusionists will be immediately blocked and possibly reported.
• I am not the best person to ask for specific advice on your gender or orientation but I may be able to direct you to a blog better suited for that or that has content that might help you
Tags
This blog is very new so i may mess up some or change these later

#by-Vi : Posts that came from my brain only
#requested : Posts that did not come from my brain but from a request
#by Anon : Posts that were requested anonymously
#experience : Posts that are not a character/person but an experience
#reblogged : Posts not from my brain, but someone else's

No idea if this goes against the rules, I re-read them a bit to make sure, though I'm not 100% confident. This post isn't intended as a vent, although it may read as one. ULTRAKILL has both helped and warped(?) parts of my life. I have a really horrible fixation on ULTRAKILL. I don't tend to scale things because trying to say "I'm a bigger fan than you are because X, Y and Z!!!1!1!" has always pissed me off and generally rubs me the wrong way. However, for me, I do feel like this is in a similar vein (vein like castle v-), and is GENUINELY to a worrying degree imo. Maybe someone else can relate? Unsure.
For context on some of this, I deal with a dissociative disorder, and I'm a split of V1. Even with that, I can only think of one other instance where it complicated an interest of ours this badly. I think about ULTRAKILL every hour on the hour, I'm not even sure if I go ten minutes w/o thinking about it. And I live a healthy (relatively) life! I'm able to do things, go outside, enjoy life to the best of my ability, hold a job, college, etc. and have gotten better w/ socializing (autism really messes w/ this one); I am just fucking insane about ULTRAKILL. This shit consumes a large chunk of my frontal lobe, hand to God. I constantly plan out and/or make fanfictions (though never post em because being an ao3 author is a little spooky, can't lie gehshe), drawings, animations. Dawg I even get GYM MOTIVATION from ULTRAKILL. Body goals? THE MACHINE. I listen to the soundtrack while I work out (my bias to Order, Death of God's Will, Colliding Stars and The Abyss and the Serpent really poke out here). In fact, ULTRAKILL even helped with my gender and sexual (not inherently trying to be NSFW here) identities! Legitimately made me come to the realization that we might align more with being agender than transmasculine, and that we have no idea what our disaster of a sexuality is collectively, so we just say queer! And even though it's still hard to express ourselves, that has helped so much in feeling more .. at comfort? Correct? I dunno. There’s also a lack of need for labels at all now. It feels so fuckin’ goofy to say this because it HAS consumed a part of my life to the point where I feel like I'm peak brain-rotting at times, however it's also really helped, too?? Like in the most oxymoronic way ULTRAKILL has helped me develop as a person. The imaginary scenarios and art I use aids me in my expression and thought and even brings out more of my creativity. Ironically, despite not really wanting to be perceived as a human being, it has made me feel more like a person. I have a love-hate relationship with it only for the intensity of how much I adore it. It makes me upset when I no longer feel like I’m “me” enough, and yet ironically it has helped me to be healthier in other areas. lowkey use it to cope w/ the religious trauma sometimes too haha I will say, though, for a while I thought (and still sometimes do think) it was ruining my mental state. The identity issues, artist envy, missing my source/individuals from it (+ pseudo-memories and heavy dissociation as a whole if I'm being real), and general hyperfixation woes get very heavy at times. Interest so bad I have to look away sometimes when I see voice actor work, SFM's, etc. Not very proud of that. I never express these issues heavily to anybody except my sibling and a few close friends, simply due to the nature of people, especially on the internet, along with the complexity of having to explain an illness that is so severely stigmatized. My current issue is just holding back from spending my money on merch lmao (I may just draw myself with it to cope /hj). I am cringe and I will soon be free! Apologies if this post is depressing and/or repetitive. uhh, I've seen some anons name themselves, so camaraderie anon here?? LOL sorry. (p.s shoutout to the sisyphus likers and people who hate his mischaracterization YOU ARE THE REAL ONES!!!)
