#IDK I GUESS IT COUNTS

[anxiety-elemental-kay]

I'm on record as having mixed feelings about Trigun 98 (and BOY HOWDY do I plan to get into that for the Tumblr rewatch) because when it's bad it's REALLY BAD but also when it's good it's REALLY GOOD.

And an example of the latter that's been chewing on my gray matter is this screenshot here. I forget which post I saw recently with this image, but it got my fucking Gay Little Gender Brain going. Here is Vash filling the masculine role of the action hero with his impossible marksmanship, and yet in this closeup we can still see his long eyelashes.

I think Vash's Girly Anime Eyelashes is something else I've mentioned before but not talked much about, but to me it's an important element of his visual design! It hints at how he's a softer kind of character, how even if he must perform violence he seeks to do as little harm as possible. It's about how his character can contain both masculine and feminine elements and those can coexist in one person. The bodily autonomy/exploitation themes of the story of which Vash sits at an interesting intersection.

When I first watched Trigun I hadn't realized I was nonbinary yet, and I had by the time Stampede came out. Stampede Vash gave me all kinds of gender envy which I hadn't really experienced before. (Except for Vi on Arcane but that may also be because I'm a dumb lesbian and she is exactly My Type.)

I don't have any kind of conclusion for this, except for I Want The Plant Gender.

Mini car as a transformer. I'm not in the transformers fandom nor have watched any of the shows or movies (other than bumblebee) but it was a fun character design exercise

Keferon. Please read Ninth by Kyn on AO3. I think you would love it very much. It has a large chapter count, but don't be intimidated, it's very easy to get into. It is currently unfinished, but is being updated regularly.

You are the seventh person that recommended this fic to me so ahahahaha yeah

I’m doing great Help I hate some parts of it but I love the other parts I’m spinning in the blender

Heiress of the Count AU

Early in the Imperial Era, Vader is sent along as The Muscle for someone's trade negotiations with what's left of the CIS. There's not much, all told, and they've already capitulated to The Big Ask of submitting to the Empire, but bureaucratic minutiae still need to be pinned down, and they're still cohesive enough that it'll be easier to discuss things like tax rates by meeting with a few representatives than hashing things out planet by planet. Vader doesn't want to come along, but Sidious said he had to (and then laughed).

Once he arrives, he finds out why! The head of the loose coalition of CIS planets is the Countess of Serenno, Asajj Ventress.

Asajj is listed as Count Dooku's primary heir in the will, despite him trying to kill her and her fucking off to be a bounty hunter instead. He still cared? Was fond? He still regarded her well enough to name her as basically his adopted daughter. The line of succession will revert to Dooku's nephew if Ventress doesn't have any heirs of her own, and a good portion of the larger estate did go to him (and some pockets went to Obi-Wan), but the title, castle, fortune, and throne went to Asajj.

She doesn't know what the hell to do with it. But then comes the situation of negotiating with the Empire, and her... cousin? Grand-nephew? Whatever the fuck Dooku's actual blood nephew is. The guy said she had to go because she was the only person around that could claim to be at least somewhat resistant/unintimidated by Imperial lackeys, being a notably powerful Force User with a history of Jedi Kills.

So Asajj is now the new face of what's left of the CIS.

And she's honestly pretty likely to recognize Vader as Anakin, if they're in the same room for a few hours and she's calm enough to try and figure out which idiot is in the massive armor.

IDK where this goes but I think maybe Asajj could pspspsps Vader out of the Empire by mentioning that the nightsisters had a better grasp of necromancy than the Sith, and if Vader really wanted to follow through on whatever it was about immortality that got him on Sidious's side (she's heard Amidala is dead, and the two weren't subtle, though she doesn't mention it), then she's basically the only one left alive that could help him access the right Dathomiri texts to fuck around with dead souls.

Anyway. Countess Asajj. I want to put her in fancy outfits and have an actual noble (Dooku's nephew) as her long-suffering chief advisor.

(The man is not planning to usurp or betray her because she's letting him have a fair amount of power and will probably let the line go back to him anyway, possibly even abdicating after the situation is stable enough that they don't need her Former Sithliness anymore, so like... what even would be the point? Waste of resources.)
