#cause he gets misgendered often

[artwins]

[villainsandvictimsalliance]

The appeal of a villain friend in fiction is more often than not the thought that someone out there would choose you over the entire world.

The members of the League of Villains were anyone's priority. They felt replaceable or even worse, they knew they were replaceable. They weren't pretty enough, strong enough, normal enough, cool enough. They were wrong in the head, were too violent, too weird, too creepy.

All the rage? The hurt? They were told to swallow it because it was making people uncomfortable.

Stain was their inspiration, but he wasn't the one to pick them. He wasn't the one who looked at them and told them "you have a place". That was Giran. The manga tells us that Giran was putting together a sort of friendship group for violent outcasts like them. That he formed the League for them to have company, a reason to fight for, to exist.

There's a sort of catharsis that fictional villain friendships give that you can't find somewhere else. A sort of short-lived relief that comes when someone sees you being mistreated and decides retribution is needed. Wouldn't it be wonderful if revenge had no consequences and the damage it caused was at once lasting and non-existent?

That's what fiction is for. You put all your feelings there and create scenarios where you purge those feelings. No one gets harmed and you come out of it cleaned, renewed, with a clear head.

So when Tomura Shigaraki creates the League of Villains, it is an instant click for people who had been wronged and are seeking catharsis of their negative experiences and feelings.

The League of Villains punishes someone with torture and failure for misgendering and hurting their trans friend. A shonen manga does that, a gender where nonconforming people are a joke by tradition. Do you get what that means to some readers out there?

Tomura claims to hate everything and everyone, but when Toga asks him, he admits that they are his exception. He wouldn't destroy something they loved. His prioritizing their wishes and their likings. There was no one else above them for him and no one was as important to him as they were.

Suddenly, they are someone's number one people and not out of manipulation. They recognize in Tomura a man who really cares.

Tomura was shown to live in total neglect. He had poor hygiene, was isolated almost completely from the outside world, talked with maybe three or four people tops, ate whatever, liver whatever. He didn't care about his living conditions. It was only when the League asked for clothing and food and other stuff that he began to care. For them.

He wants them to live, to succeed, he wants to hurt anyone who hurts them, to protect what is precious to them.

And now we got confirmation that they matter more to him than his own past.

Tomura would destroy the world simply because they asked him to, because they promised to. He would destroy himself trying because he must be their hero. Remember how every time a villain would question him about his motivation or his ideals, he would talk about his hatred or his need to destroy. We've gone past it and at his very core we found that the thing that truly fuels him is the desire to be a hero.

For them.

It's really something to see people wondering why a reader would be fond of Tomura Shigaraki or the LOV in general. Is it that hard to understand?

Again, that's the appeal of a fictional villain's friendship to real life victims:

To be important, to be picked, to be prioritized, to be felt, to be seen, to be understood, to belong to and be considered, to be irreplaceable. To be all those things to the point the weight of it shatters the universe.

So much love outplacement in someone's love— to matter so much to someone —that to see you hurt would make them want to destroy the world.

-> usually just a little text, sometimes he'll come and sit with you in your class/invite you into his own

he'll let you borrow his clothes if your closet doesn't consist of the clothes that you'd want

-> would also let you borrow his spare uniform until you can get the boys' uniform

when he's with you and people misgender you, he'll subtley correct them if you don't end up doing it

"i don't know, he might have plans. you should ask him."

OIKAWA TOORU — ★

he was a little surprised when you told him initially

not that he isn't supportive!!

[killuakiru]

hello!! could you write headcanons for killua and gon (separately) w a fem!reader that looks/dresses masculine/very androgynous and sometimes even gets misgendered as a guy? ty!! <3

Yes I absolutely can !! Thank you for your request dear anon 🫶

⊹₊⋆ Androgynous!Reader x Killua Zoldyck, Gon Freeces ( Separate ! ) ᶻ 𝗓 𐰁

༉‧₊˚. Let's start! ༉‧₊˚.

༉‧₊˚. Killua Zoldyck ! ᶻ 𝗓 𐰁

• Lets say, hypothetically, you both met during the Hunter's Exam, and Gon introduced you to him !

• At first, he found you suuuper interesting! ‘cause he saw a "boy" with a soft expression, and such a soft voice as well! Something you don't see or hear often.

• He made a mental note to tease you about your feminine features in the future.

• Although, nonetheless, you three bonded like no other. But you'd always question why Killua was so touchy. ( Like swinging an arm around your shoulder, hitting / patting your back. Yk, dude activity! )

• Up until the end of the Hunter's Exam, he NEVER knew that you were a girl. Hell– even when the group rescued him from the Zoldyck estate!

• "Gon! Oh– [Name], too!" He mentions your name VERY cheerfully! Even hitting your waist with both of his fists– it's a miracle he didn't question the shape of your waist as a female.

• It wasn't until during the training in Heaven's Arena that he found out.

• "[Name]'s taking FOREVER! He sure takes his sweet time." Killua grumbles, sighing and shaking his head in a disapproval manner. Gon perks up and faces Killua with a confused expression. [Name] is a she?" He mentions, baffling Killua. "WHAT?!"

• And, said "she" comes out in her glory, quite literally wearing a SKIRT. Clad in a long beige cardigan, long sleeve white tshirt underneath, and a long khaki pleaded skirt that're below her knees for a change, SHE waved to the duo.

• "Hi! Sorry I took a while. I didn't know skirts were honestly such a hassle to buckle." She says with an exasperated sigh, placing both hands on her hips. "No problem! But you should really change, I mean, we're fighting and it must be uncomfortable to wear a skirt." Gon exclaims, walking over to the female. She nods with a grin, "No worries, I always have a change of clothes."

• During this interaction, Killua was STUNNED. What do you mean he's been SO touchy with a female all this time?!

• "Killua, stop staring! Let's sign up already!" [Name] called and faced the counter and signed some papers.

• While this didn't change Killua's and [Name]'s friendship, Killua will ALWAYS be embarrassed. He honestly feels SO bad that he misgendered you for a few months.

• after that interaction, he'd be lying if he said he wasn't a tad bit interested in [Name]!

༉‧₊˚. Gon Freecss ! ᶻ 𝗓 𐰁

• It's either he's already aware that you're a female or he's so clueless

• In a scene where he's already aware, his instincts probably told him that you're a female LMAO, he's like "You dress kind of funny!" Since the people in Whale Island usually wear long skirts / dresses

• But he's soso positive about it!! He's always like "Your style is so cool!" As he babbles about the traditional clothing in Whale Island

• In a scene where he IS clueless, he'll treat you exactly how he treats Killua! The difference would honestly be the softness on his voice

• Due to living with two women his entire life, he's gotten used to being softer on women ( as per Mita's words )

• When you both met, let's say in the Hunter's Exam and you wear like a soft feminine perfume despite your clothing he goes "Hi miss!" In an excited tone.

• Of course, you were pleasantly surprised because a lot of people would call you "sir" or "little boy / boy" all the time.

• In contrast to Killua, he read in between the lines and connected the dot that you were a female by your soft expression & voice.

• Now if he DIDN'T know, he'd probably go like "Hi sir!" As well, and since he was pretty forward with his greeting, you got to correct him earlier.

• But hypothetically, let's say he just walked up to you saying he wants to be friends!

• He probably found out through the end of the Hunter's Exam, or during the rescuing of Killua!

• If he found out through the end of the Hunter's Exam, he probably found out through observing your fighting style!

• If you fought with your fists, he found out with the way you move your body– naturally, a female's body would have a softer tone unlike a male who would be on the rougher edges!

• same goes if you use any weapons or special techniques :3

• You might be thinking– if Gon found all these out by observing, why didn't Killua? Simple! Because he was sooo convinced you were a boy and he didn't bother observing you!

• When Gon found out, he was straight forward! "[Name].. Are you by any chance a girl?" He asks in a genuine & curious manner, and how could you stay mad at him?! It was an honest mistake he did!

• You just cleared up everything, saying that you prefer wearing the clothing you wear for comfortability, and because it hides your movements easily to the point you can easily fool your opponent! ( get the reference ? )

• He listened closely and attentively, and he was really respectful about it too! Such a gentleman!

• ( If Killua knew beforehand ) Killua definitely teased Gon about it, humorously saying he was stupid for not knowing a clear thing! ( even when he was fooled too in the beginning )

• Through the times you three adventured through the world up until the end, Gon loved you SOO much! He loves you for who you are even when people make fun of him for choosing a girl that looks like a boy :)

• In the end, he was happy, even after he lost his ability to use Nen, he's glad there's someone who'll take care of him and his reckless choices <3

Why I don't like the trans woman Vil headcanon

You probably saw my repost of another person talking about this but I wanted to rant about it by myself so here we go.

Before you start calling me transphobic, I'm not angry BECAUSE he's being headcanoned as trans (I actually headcanon him as trans myself, but as a trans man) and at the end of the day he's just a fictional character and it doesn't really matter so do whatever the hell you want.

That being said, a huge part of Vil's characters is not liking gender roles/stereotypes

This scene with him and Epel speaks for itself:

Why is this a problem? Well the main reason I'm seeing a lot of people headcanon him as a trans woman is because he is feminine-

My reaction:

Ah yes because feminine men totally cannot exist! They HAVE to be a trans woman! Same with tomboys they have to be trans men! Oh my god-

I want to clarify I'm not blaming trans people for this, in fact I've seen mainly trans people in the twst wonderland fandom call this out and mainly non trans people headcanon Vil as a trans woman.

To be fair, a lot of trans people started out as masculine "women" or feminine "men" before they realised they were trans, but that doesn't mean ALL feminine and masculine men and women are trans (or at least not transitioning to be the opposite gender I have met plenty of masculine trans women and feminine trans men)

Like the post I reposted said, if Vil truly WERE a trans woman, s/he'd probably be a tomboy, because a huge part of Vil's character IS 👏🏻BREAKING 👏🏻GENDER 👏🏻ROLES!

A lot of the trans male friends I have who also like Twisted Wonderland look up to Vil, because they want to break male gender roles and pass enough to be seen as a feminine guy and not a woman (what I mean by that is when trans men are feminine and like wearing dresses and stuff they are often a bit too afraid to do it due to social dysphoria and being misgendered so they usually wait until they begin passing more to wear/do more feminine things, its sad)

So when said trans male friends see the other twisted wonderland say Vil HAS TO BE A WOMAN just because he's feminine it makes them upset, they think they aren't "trans enough" and that to be a "true man" they must conform to male gender roles so they can be "trans enough"

The same goes with female characters who are masculine, trans women who are tomboys could be happy that a woman in media they watch is more masculine like them, but when people start headcanoning said woman as a trans man, it could make the trans women upset

I'm not saying headcanoning certain characters as trans is a bad thing, do whatever the hell you want, I'm not the type to get angry over fictional fun, I scoff at people wishing death upon proshippers because yeah its gross but at the end of the day its just fiction and the person behind it are often just a weird pre teen, I barely even make "call out posts" about these types of fandom stuff but subjects like being transgender often hit home for me because I have many trans friends and a few trans relatives whom I worry about because I know dysphoria can often make people think unhealthy and suicidal thoughts, so I'm just concerned about the harm certain headcanons could cause

#Notes: another one of many transmasc requests hell yeah

pronouns used: none, but male! reader

˗ˏˋ back to navigation ´ˎ˗

꒰⸝⸝₊⛓┊Jeff The Killer

Mentioned this before, but it's likely he misgenders and even deadnames you just for shits and giggles (that only he finds funny), until you genuinely get upset and guilt comes crawling in, making him quit it. He doesn't understand that his words carry a weight with them most of the time, so it's more out of debauchery than straight up malice, which is a little rich coming from him. Despite this, he feels like he's the only one who can disrespect you like that (in his own twisted mind, that is) and will not stand for anyone doing the same thing, his protectiveness and violent tendencies coming into play. The knife he carries around isn't just for show, afterall.

꒰⸝⸝₊⛓┊Ben Drowned

Doesn't care for gender or gender roles, which is a surprising level of maturity coming from someone that behaves like a pre teen boy most of the time. No matter how you dress or behave, he just sees you as a guy (even if you're in a dress and full makeup) cause that's what you are, no amount of femininity will change that fact for him, proposital or accidental. Doesn't even get mad when someone disrespects you in that regard, he just gets upset cause he straight up doesn't understand their prejudicial point of view, and just tells them to shut up in a flat voice, then ignoring any protest and moving his attention to you to ask if you're okay. Your comfort is of utmost importance to him.

꒰⸝⸝₊⛓┊Ticci Toby

Also mentioned this before, but since I headcanon Cody to be transmasc and them to be best friends, he's quite used to it. Plus, his compassionate and understanding nature wouldn't allow it to be any other way. Treats you with extra care and is extremely protective, just because he knows you already struggle a lot and he wants to make things easier for you. Makes you feel included by inviting you to hang out with him and the other boys in their so called "guys night out", which earned a eyebrow raise from Jeff but complete acceptance from the others. Will not tolerate any kind of funny business when it comes to this and is quick to verbally and physically threaten anyone who disrespects you.

꒰⸝⸝₊⛓┊Eyeless Jack

Approaches it more from a doctor's perspective than anything else, since otherwise he would feel a little awkward and is scared to accidently offend you since that's the last thing he wants. Offers to help you get started on T if you haven't already and tells you what to eat to help increase your testosterone levels. Super nice and respectful, just wants you to feel comfortable in your own skin. Like Toby, he's a little bit extra protective when it comes to you, but more often than not he just corrects people when you get misgendered by them. If they insist, he drags you away and leave the person talking to themselves, not willing to give them the time of day. Your comfort is more important than whatever stupidity is coming out of their mouth.

꒰⸝⸝₊⛓┊Laughing Jack

He's literally a ragdoll, I don't think he cares or understands gender all that much. If you say you're a guy, then so be it, he'll refer to and treat you as one no questions asked and no matter how you look or sound like. I believe he likes to sew, so he might make you a few outfits that better fit your taste to help you feel better about yourself if you're having a bad dysphoria day. Calls you "Handsome" pretty often as well. Doesn't understand the concept of transphobia, it just doesn't make sense in his mind, so he's more confused than anything if he ever sees someone misgendering you. When he notices you getting more and more genuinely upset, it kinda clicks that they're doing it out of malice. Big chance of them not coming out alive from this encounter.

꒰⸝⸝₊⛓┊Masky

My first instinct was to say he would be similar to Jeff, as usual, but considering the fact he was getting a liberal arts degree, I highly doubt it. At most raises an eyebrow if he ever sees you dressing more feminine, but never actually mentions it or disrespects you (in that regard, at least). Just be warned, since you're a man, he's going to treat you like one - bad side and all. No taking it easy on you during training or being chivalrous, if you're one of the guys, you're gonna get the same treatment. Despite all that, he's super quick to straight up point a fucking gun at anyone misgendering you, asking them to repeat themselves in a low and menacing tone.

꒰⸝⸝₊⛓┊Hoodie

Super lowkey with making sure you feel validated and included, doesn't want to be too in your face about it. Just small things like talking about how all the guys are together while you're in the room as well or a quick signed "Looking handsome" as you walk by. He just doesn't want to be too forceful and end up backfiring and making you uncomfortable, but he wants you to know he considers you one of the boys™ just as much as he does the others. Introduces you to singers he likes that are also trans, like Frances Forever or Awfultune, and might even play some of their songs on his guitar for you. Doesn't pay any attention to people misgendering you, just tries to steal your attention while leaving them to talk to themselves, that shit eating grin ever present on his face.

꒰⸝⸝₊⛓┊Nina The Killer

I'm sorry, but she's probably one of those "I always wanted to have a trans friend!" people. Not that she thinks you're just trans and nothing else, she does appreciate you for who you are as a person more than anything, but that's definitely her first thought. Super excited to have makeovers with you - she dresses you up super nicely (and emo) and is literally the embodiment of that one "Do you or do you not feel bonita?" audio, will not stop bugging you until you admit you feel handsome. Extremely passive aggressive with people who misgender you, going "Uhm, it's HE, actually" in a somewhat rude manner. If they insist you better hold her back or things might escalate.

꒰⸝⸝₊⛓┊Sally Williams

This little sweetie is so nice to you. Might misgender you at first on accident until you or someone else explain it to her, then she just nods all excited and starts calling you "Big bro Y/N". Gives you piles and piles of drawings that she makes of you, each with a variation of "Best bro ever" written as the header, and looks up at you seesawing on the soles of her foot, waiting for you to compliment her artistic abilities, to which she hugs your waist tightly when you do.

Okay so this is a intro post about my headcanons for Bang's parents and his childhood. So yeah, buckle in guys :D

This is Meg, short for Margaret, and Ned, short for Edwin.

Meg was designed by @supgoddo while i designed Ned. These are just some early doodles of them.

Also this last one is my most recent drawing of them which was a while ago but I plan on drawing a lot of stuff of them and Bang for future posts ↴

I headcanon them to be rich/high class because:

Bang's whole canon name is pretty dang fancy, like come on there's no way he just has that name for no reason

As made in a older post of mine (this one) I talked about how Bang shows a lot of signs that he comes from a wealthy upbringing of some sorts. Including him having proper manners like when he greets a royal sand architect and some kid named "King"

Here's just a synopsis for Bang's parents and his childhood and how it all affected him:

Bangford "Bang" Bipplebop III grew up in a wealthy family under the weight of big expectations. His father, Ned (Bangford Edwin "Ned" Bipplebop II), was a self-made millionaire who pushed himself to succeed as his own father wanted. He hoped Bang would inherit this same drive and set high, often unrealistic goals for him to carry on the family legacy. Bang’s mother, Margaret "Meg", came from old money and embraced tradition, placing high value on elegance and respectability. Though she loved Bang, she struggled with his transition and often deadnamed or misgendered him, which only deepened the distance between them. As a kid, Bang struggled academically and socially, showing neurodivergent traits like his father has, but Ned is not even aware of his own traits so he's blind to Bang's struggles with causes more stain on their relationship. Bang was often clumsy and felt slow or “behind,” which led to frustration and yelling from his parents, leaving him feeling out of place even in his own home. Still, he idolized his dad, and when he transitioned, he chose to become Bangford "Bang" Bipplebop III. Ned was proud, but Meg quietly missed her “little girl”. Now an adult, Bang has adopted a chill, stoner-surfer vibe, projecting effortless cool demeanor. Beneath that, though, he constantly wrestles with feelings of inadequacy and failure. He dropped out of college, never achieving the high-class life his parents imagined. He even got his current job on Answer Team 341B by accident, after receiving someone else’s acceptance letter, which only adds to his sense of not belonging or “being behind,” since he was never properly trained. To cope, he uses weed to numb the pain and avoid his worries, but he fears this habit only reinforces the image of an ambitionless pothead that his parents likely suspect him to be. Beneath his mellow exterior, Bang battles with self-worth, struggling to break free of family expectations that never quite fit.

So in a nutshell, he’s a trans man dealing with generational trauma who masks his insecurities and self-doubt with a laid-back persona while using weed to numb the pain 👍

Also my headcanons for his childhood struggles help explain why he shields his face and head when he gets yelled at times, which i also talked about in a different post. (right here) Like him fearing of being scolded at again for doing something wrong. Or even just to shield and protect himself when he feels like he's in danger. Poor dude🥺

Also to point out that there are a few moments in Answer Time where you can see where Bang is not at all interested in business, like in the Internet episode where he looks disengaged and even a little bored when Stacy, the human calling them, was talking about his corporate job that's all about serious business. And plus the Stocks episode where Bang has no idea or interest in how to run a company when he was trying to figure out how stocks work. Which helps with my headcanon that he ofc doesn't find any interest in business like his father does and doesn't want to be in it.

Heck, even Sue tells Bang in the Stocks episode, "Some folks are just born with a innate talent for business." Which could hint that business is in his family blood somehow.

Anyways, back on track. My voice claims for Meg and Ned are Mother Gothel from Tangled and Wheatley from Portal, and those could also kind of show how they both act like but not entirely of course but just sorta the gist of it in a nutshell.

Since moving out for college, Bang has been living on his own away from his parents and after dropping out, he cut off all contact with them, being too ashamed to face them as their only child who was a far cry from what they had hoped for. But I do theorize that perhaps after the Stock episode when Bang's red t-shirt company flunked in stocks, Ned took notice of this (not to mention all of the adverts with Bang's face in them) and thus could lead to him and Meg soon finding Bang and meeting him after so many years. Which would scare the living hell out of him if he ever saw them knocking at his door, but that's for another time I think.

So yeah that's what i have for y'all so far with Med and Neg. I'll probably make other posts talking about Meg and Ned in more depth with their own backstories and lore. I hope you guys like my headcanons or whatever. Please feel free to comment or share your ideas or thoughts!

Thank you for reading this far and have a good day! ✨

Gwen Stacy has a “protect trans kids” flag in her room. Imagine if she has that because she has a trans little brother (male reader)?

I’d like to request platonic yandere Gwen Stacy with a younger brother who is ftm. :] It would also be really cool if you could add some headcanons with the others, because sometimes Gwen wants M/n to be safe, but can’t watch him herself. So she allows the ones she trusts the MOST (Hobie, Pavitr, Miles, whoever else) to watch and be with him for her!

(details that you can choose if you wanna include or not: dealing with transphobia, missing Gwen when she’s on missions, potentially cuddles because sometimes he just wants to be held and it doesn’t really matter who does it)

Warnings: yandere behavior, platonic Gwen, talks about harassment and transphobia,

A/N: this was really fun to write! Ty for requesting. Please enjoy this :]

The fact is, she’s like your biggest supporter ever. Ever since you decided to come out, she makes sure to protect you, taking care of you by often pulling harmless pranks on you and adoring you. She probably shows way more love to you than she's shown to anyone.

If and when people misgender you, Gwen will go do things two ways. One, she will correct the pronouns and make sure the rest of the week is horrible for them (ex. Moving their keys to make them late for work, randomly tripping throughout their day, getting paper objects thrown at the head, etc.) Or two, which is also her favorite, she’ll play dumb and make sure the person is extremely annoyed by the fact ‘you’ don’t exist.

“Who are you talking about? We don’t know anyone by that name. You must be losing it, a bit coo-coo much?”

The two of you often stay up late, her asking questions about school and that one person you’ve never mentioned before. Of course, she laughs it off and says it’s a coincidence. You both have nights where you eat junk food, watching funny sitcoms as she cracks up jokes now and again.

Whenever she’s on missions, it’s an unpredictable trip that you never have a point-on time of when she’ll get back. However, in the meantime, it’s often you’ll find a hoodie of hers, a piece of her stuck with you until the real her comes back. At some point, she’ll come home and see you huddled on the couch, wearing her hoodie. It makes her heartbreak as you miss her. But don’t worry, she makes it up in the morning by making you breakfast and buying your favorite snacks.

Hugs and kisses on the cheeks everywhere. While Gwen doesn’t show a lot of affection, especially with physical touch, more with words and gifts, sometimes things get out of hand and she gets upset; causing her to bust into your room with a sour face, tears threatening to fall as her arms wrap around you, saying nothing as the two of you hug.

With learning, just to hold her as tight. Please. She needs it. Especially from you, sometimes she has nightmares of losing you and while she does sneak in to check up on you, it scares her of what the future might hold. Just being able to hold you close, and feel you laugh as she smiles, it reminds her how good of a life she has.

Whenever she’s gone for a long period, whether that’s a mission or doing some type of spider-woman hero stuff, Gwen will make sure to grab some items she sees that she thinks you’ll like; more often it’s street food and expensive figurines of shows you adore to heart.

Sometimes, she’ll come home heaving out of breath, holding way more things than she should, and throwing them all with you, ignoring George’s protest about leaving a mess by the door. All she cares about is watching you open them with excitement.

Sadly, transphobia is quite popular these days. With this said, Gwen (and her friends, especially Hobie!) will yell at the person, cursing them off and possibly threatening them. While Gwen is more on the relaxed side and tends to ignore it the flipping the bird.

If any of her closest friends are with her, you can bet it’ll be a mess; yelling ensues around you, and having to hold back Miles or Pavitr from approaching them with mean insults.

To be honest, the whole crew thinks you’re so cool, especially Hobie and Pavitr. While Miles has known you longer and makes sure to check up on you as much as he can, the other two guys love to ask you questions and annoy you when you’re supposed to be doing something else.

They’re all just as protective of you as Gwen, her worried words of ‘please take care of him when I’m gone’. Hobie is most often around, practically dragging you to his chaos and helping you with school when you need it (he’s the ‘uncle’ who brings alcohol to your 18th birthday because you’re an adult now).

Pavitr is a huge sweetheart, always checking up on you and offering Chai to you when he senses you’re stressed. In all honesty, he's the best person to help with homework - he's incredibly focused and rewards you with candy.

I saw your requests are open and I wanted to ask if you could write headcanons or drabbles (whatever you feel like) about how Zoro, Sanji and Law would take care of/help a trans masc Reader having a bad gender dysphoric day? Thank you so much and I hope you have a wonderful day/night! ♡

(not sure if you write for Mihawk but if you end up making headcanons and write for him, it'd make me really happy if he were among them as well 👉👈)

pairing: zoro x reader, sanji x reader, law x reader, mihawk x reader (separate)

contents: transmasc!reader, gender dysphoria, clueless but he tries zoro, ‘it’s not dysphoria, it’s dysphoriUS’ sanji, talks of gender affirming surgery in law’s

word count: 1.5k words

note: so personally i don’t experience a lot of dysphoria besides some chest dysphoria, so this might not be the best. just know that i tried VERY hard and i hope you enjoy these headcanons all the same :3 i love to put out trans centered content when i can hehe <33

playlist: rabbit in a headlight - autoheart

Roronoa Zoro

Zoro, bless his heart, doesn’t get it. To him, you look perfectly masculine and it’s hard for him to wrap his head around the fact that you think otherwise. His first instinct is to invite you to work out with him; get your endorphins going. (There’s nothing more masculine than getting sweaty with another man.) Zoro will give you tips as to what muscles to train to get a build you’ll be happier with. If you need it, he will even help write up a training regimen for yourself, especially if his original plan of working out helps you. Zoro won’t go easy on you, he knows your strengths and weaknesses enough to know what you can handle. That said, he may end up overestimating your abilities in an attempt to get you to push yourself. In terms of taking care of you, Zoro might bring you a glass of water, maybe a plate of food if you missed a meal. It took him a lot of effort to keep enough food away from Luffy to fill your plate, so you better be thankful. Give him a smile and watch his ears turn pink.

Words of affirmation are not his strong suit. If you need to vent, he’ll be there, of course. His replies will be blunt and to the point as he leans against the side of the ship, one eye open as he listens to you. Zoro might come off as a little insensitive with his words, but ultimately, he wants you to understand that he doesn’t view you any different from any other man he knows. If anyone misgenders you, may god have mercy on their soul. They will have a very unhappy swordsman barking up their tree within seconds. Afterwards, Zoro will remind you not to listen to idiots who don’t know what they’re talking about.

Black Leg Sanji

Unlike Zoro, words of affirmation are Sanji’s speciality, second only to acts of service. Listening carefully to your words, he will interrupt every so often to compliment you, or to remind you of how handsome he finds you. He can feel his heart crack at the thought of you feeling ill at ease with your body, taking it a bit more personally than he needs to. Sanji loves you deeply, and the fact that you are hurting while there is little that he can do about it is enough to drive him batty. As you’re explaining how you feel, you can see tears well in his eyes. It’s a little awkward, if not sweet that he cares about you enough to take your feelings to heart. You won’t be expected to move a muscle so long as you’re feeling bad. Sanji brings your meals to you, each one hand made with as much love as he could muster. He hopes you can taste it.

As soon as you want to get up, you’ll notice that every mirror on the Sunny is covered by a blanket so as not to cause you any unnecessary stress. Sanji treats you as if you are made of glass, and is more than a bit dramatic with his attempts to help you. The entire day, he follows you around, offering declarations of how handsome you are at every step. It would be somewhat annoying if his attempts weren’t entirely in earnest. Like Zoro, Sanji doesn’t quite understand dysphoria. How you perceive yourself and how he perceives you differ enough that it confuses him, and he feels like he’s not doing enough as a partner to make you feel comfortable in your own skin. You’re going to have to explain to him that it’s something entirely out of both of your control. You just have to ride the wave when it arrives. Sanji understands that, at least. On bad days, you will have your very own cheerleader, entirely willing to wait on you hand and foot.

Trafalgar Law

Like Zoro, Law is very solutions based. He is a doctor, not only does he understand how you feel — at least in a medical sense — he comes equipped with solutions other’s aren’t able to offer. If he catches you avoiding mirrors or wearing baggy clothing more often, he will sit you down and offer said solutions to you. You are aware that it’s not outside of his capabilities to perform gender affirming surgery, right? He is more than happy to provide if it means you’ll feel euphoric rather than dysphoric. Of course, any surgery is a big decision. Take time to discuss it with him and yourself, Law is patient and more than willing to help explain the process if you want him to. If you decide against it, Law understands. It’s a very big, very permanent decision, though he assures you he’s available if you ever change your mind. To help assuage your fears, Law will offer you one of his textbooks that detail gender affirming care, openly explaining any medical term you’re unfamiliar with and processes you don’t understand.

In terms of taking care of you, Law is more than a little awkward. He gives good, albeit stiff, hugs. His arms are long enough to fully wrap you in his embrace and hold you against him for however long you need. (That said, you can feel him start to get antsy once you pass the sixty second mark.) If you’re having trouble showering, Law offers to share the bathroom with you. Of course, he would have his back to you, he assures. It would just be easier to get done if you have someone in there distracting you from any negative thoughts. If you want to spend the day in bed, Law will join you throughout the day, laying next to you and quietly reading when he has down time. He enjoys sharing space with you, and if you want, he will even absentmindedly run his fingers through your hair as you lay next to him. It’s hard for Law to properly take care of others when he can hardly remember to eat half the time. For you, however, he is attentive and caring, treating you like a patient until you feel 100% yourself again. Every thirty minutes, Law will ask you on a scale of one to ten how you feel, never judging you for your response.

Dracule Mihawk

Like Law, and unlike Sanji and Zoro, Mihawk understands your dysphoria. While he’s never experienced it himself, he’s lived long enough to know what it is and what it entails. Lending you a listening ear, he is quiet as you speak, fully absorbing the weight of your words while you vent to him. He lays next to you in bed, an arm wrapped around your shoulder, his thumb gently stroking your skin. Once you’re done, he offers cool words of affirmation, a balm for your aching soul. Afterwards, like Zoro, he offers to help you train your body to be one that you’re able to feel euphoric about. And if that doesn’t sound appealing to you, Mihawk is more than happy to pull some strings and get you to meet Ivankov. They are far more equipped to help you than he is. Of course, if you much prefer comfort over solutions, Mihawk is capable of that as well. He will make you a cup of tea, pour himself a glass of wine, and sit by your bedside for hours, simply sharing the space with you, his golden eyes studying every inch of your frame for any obvious signs of distress.

Mihawk thinks you look wonderful, no matter what you wear. If you find comfort in baggy, oversized clothing, he will think you look just as good now as you do in elegant suits, perfectly tailored to fit your body. His only preference is for you to wear soft fabrics. Something he can run his hands over when he passes you by in the halls or when he’s greeting you in the kitchen. Cashmere and velvet are two favorites of his. In the days that follow, Mihawk will run his calloused palm along the sides of your face, placing a chaste kiss to your lips, before he tells you how handsome you look today. It’s not the first time that he’s complimented you, but it certainly comes as a surprise. After learning that there are days you are more ill at ease with your body than others, Mihawk makes more of an effort to compliment you. Reminding you that he sees and appreciates the man in front of him.

“Tme/tma is wrong because no trans person has gendered power over another” that’s just straight up not true. I’m trans and yet sure as shit have power over transw&fs. If wym is that other trans ppl don’t inherently all have power over tw&fs I get what ur saying, that’s an overly simplified view of things. But like. Some do and I get why tw&fs wanna talk abt it.

During my first job out as trans, I was still early in transition and most ppl just saw me as a kinda ugly cis girl. I’d cut my hair shortish and started dressing masc and wore my little he/they pin. I was the only trans person there at first. And yeah it wasn’t a great time that first year. Customers at my job would ask me what I was and misgender me on purpose. But with my coworkers, as much as I chafed against this being the case, I was taken in as one of the girls. Later a new supervisor transferred in, let’s call her Laura. She was a cishet white woman with a little pride flag pin, ‘cause she had a gay kid and allegedly supported gay ppl. She got my pronouns wrong a lot, no matter how often I corrected her (and when she used em she only used they, never he) and that sucked major ass. But for the most part she was nice enough to me. A bit after that though, a visibly trans woman was hired, Destiny. We quickly became friends so I got to hear a lot about how the work environment was going for her. To put it briefly, Laura started up a little mean girl clique with other employees that was all awful to Destiny. Like misgendering her, insulting her, giving her all the worst manual labor tasks, spreading rumors. Destiny is one of the kindest most genuine human beings on the planet I’ll have you know, she didn’t do a thing to deserve this treatment. It came to management’s attention but instead of firing Laura she just got transferred to a better position somewhere else. Even outside of that, customers would call in to complain about Destiny over nothing while misgendering her. Eventually she even got hate crimed when a customer called her a slur and threw a full drink at her. Neither of us work there anymore. But the point is—I could’ve joined that mean girl clique if I’d wanted to. I had the ability to be horrible to Destiny with little to no downside if I so chose. I had oodles of social power over her even though we were both trans. This isn’t the situation of every transmasculine person but like. There, in that store, I was the tme, and she was the tma. Plain as day.

I doubt the tme/tma framework will be used in its current state forever, it’ll probably improve over time. But if you want every trans woman and fem to just Accept that no trans person has any power over them? You have a lot of perspective to gain.

Hehe matchup time! Can I get a yandere mtmte matchup?

Decepticon matchup please. Any gender for the matchup, I don’t have a preference!

They/them pronouns. I’m also autistic but I understand if that’s too difficult to write

Likes: SPACE(I love the stars and all the different planets), art(anything from poems to sculpting to painting), archery 🏹, nature walks

Dislikes: the dark(stupid but yknow lol-), bullies and close-minded people, liars, thunderstorms and the cold

I’m known as an approachable and kind person by most. I’m pretty easy going and not one to plan ahead. I try to think positively most of the time and act as a mediator in most conflicts.

If I’m not trying to see both points of views then I’m pretty much set one side. It doesn’t happen much but if I think the persons a jerk then I will attack- lmao-

I try not to be bothered most of the time, often keeping most of my issues to myself. It’s pretty common that I bottle all of my problems until I have HUGE breakdowns. But like whatever.

I’ve had someone describe me as a golden retriever before. And tell me that I have a saviour complex so do what you will with that information.

Thank you 🙏 take ur time!

Ima be real, I'm gonna take MTMTE off of my list because I pretty much forgot all about it lol. Sorry I did my best lol

Yandere Deathsaurus X Reader

You adored space, so when you got the opportunity to go to space on an exploration mission you took it. You were so happy it was a solo mission, as socialization is sometimes difficult. Being able to relax and be yourself without the pressure of having to appeal to someone else’s standards was a dream.

Unfortunately, a huge meteor shower caused your ship to crash land into a habitable planet. Thankfully you’re pretty capable at surviving- you quickly make a shelter, find food, and anything else you’d need to survive. 

What you didn’t account for, however, was a crew of decepticons to be on the planet. When you came across a decepticon, you tried to talk your way out of it. After all of that, the decepticon still took you to his “boss”- Deathsaurus. 

Deathsaurus was at first uninterested in someone who seemed insignificant. Soon enough, he was enthralled by your odd mannerisms.The way you looked around, avoiding eye contact, to the way you gently flapped your hands when nervous.

Of course, because of his mild interest, he decided to make let you join his crew. He trusted his crew not to harm you under his orders, and he even gave you a personal room. Yes, it was an old closet, but it’s the perfect size for a tiny being such as yourself. 

As much as you wanted to, there wasn’t really a good way to contact your exploration company. Anytime you thought of a good way to get a message out or even escape while on another planet, you’d get caught. 

Eventually Deathsaurus’ patience wore thin, and he had no choice but to lock you in your room. It wasn’t until the lights went out that he learned your fear.

You banged on your door, begging to be let out. Your cries were loud and Deathsaurus immediately opened the door and scooped you up. “What’s wrong, are you injured?”

The way you clung to his huge hand was adorable to him. You trembled with fear and cried. “Dark” Was the one word you could mutter. From that day, he made sure you always had back up lights.

Soon enough you got used to the crew, even making quite a few friends. It was your unofficial job to break up fights and settle arguments. Since it was a big crew, it felt like a full time job. 

He always found it amusing how such a tiny being could argue with a being fifty times their size without worry. If there was one thing he admired about you, it was how you always stood up for others.

Since you got along well with the crew, Deathsaurus began to fall for you. You being a human didn’t bother him much- your soul was what mattered to him. He’d often carry you around on his shoulders, and grows angry if anyone misgenders you- even if it doesn’t matter that much to you. Anything about you, he will defend to the ends of the universe. Anything you want, you’ll have- you love space? You’ll see all of it. If he could, he’d catch a star and give it to you. 

Since you’re an artist, you’ll have nothing but the best supplies. It doesn’t matter how much, he has plenty of money to spend on your hobbies. Any art you make will be pinned up for everyone to see- how could he not when you made it? 

Anything  you want-clothes, precious gems, books, a whole planet? It’s all yours. It doesn’t matter if it’s “unobtainable”, he’ll find a way.

Just…don’t try and run. He hates it when you do. He can be very forgiving, but if you push him too far he knows your fears. You don’t want to be locked in your room again, do you? He’d hate to have to turn out the lights again. 

One day, he took you to a lovely planet that had a pretty star system. He had you on his thigh, letting you eat from a basket you’d brought. Deathsaurus dropped a necklace into your lap. You gently picked it up, looking at it. It was the solar system you were currently in, carefully crafted into a necklace. 

“Do you like it? I picked it out just for you, little star.”

He’s been so kind to you so far…how can you say no? After all, you’ve always been a people pleaser.

Funniest thing about this is people aren't recognizing there's a language barrier. English isn't your native language, the words you may use in English may not be what a native English speaker would use. And now they are making baseless accusations about you and your friend for transphobia.

Not only that, you didn't know the word for "platonic" and assumed sfw meant the same thing. Which is obviously fair given the context. So now they are running with this narrative without recognizing why you confused the 2. It's not racist but it's definitely something.

Then they have the gall to call you child diddler when you said you don't talk to minors. You mainly had a problem with tickling being seen as a fetish. The minors in the community is a secondary discussion that keeps getting added to whatever you say, despite it not being your main argument.

Very disappointed to see how both sides want minors to be safe, yet one side is constantly misconstruing any argument that doesn't seem to be aligned with their thoughts. No one wants children to be harmed. But if you are so up in arms about it, talk to your government. Australia recently passed a law banning anyone under 16 getting any social media. So talk to your country about it rather than proving how "superior" of a human you are online. Put your money where your mouth is.

Also just wanted to say, I don't think your English is bad. It's just causing miscommunication solely because people do not have the patience to think hmmm how could this impact their understanding, as well as their own when we both don't speak the same language.

And if you misgendered them it wasn't on purpose, other languages usually don't have a gender neutral pronoun, and often default to the masculine terms which would translate to he/him. But people don't care, they just want a reason to be angry. It's sucks.

Thank you so much for the words of support. I still don’t know how to feel about the whole thing, right now I’m somewhere in between “do these people have nothing better to do” and “that’s actually kind of funny”.

The minors part is especially funny to me, considering I said multiple times that I don’t talk to minors, I labelled my content SFW (aka platonic as I thought back then) because the stuff I post is okay for minors to view, and that’s about it. Can’t help but wonder where they saw a huge “I groom kids” banner in my bio

Speaking about the Australian law — I’m surprised they haven’t done it sooner. Though I thought they’d restrain the access, kind of like YouTube does with parental restrictions, so minors would only get exposed to content that was checked by the moderators. Though the Australian thing might be a better option.

About misgendering — I tend to use “they” to all folks I meet until I learn their pronouns, but I saw a bunch of people referring to the person using he/him, so I naturally used those?? Now I’m not sure whether these are correct ones, so I’ll go with “they” from now on :,)

Once again, thank you for the support, the amount of death threats I’m getting is getting lower, but it’s still there, and it’s just a tad bit disturbing. So your support means a lot to me

[am-i-the-asshole-official]

AITA for accidentally causing a falling out in our friend group?

I (19) made some friends in college. One of these was J (19M). Throughout the year, small issues built up with him. Notably him constantly (albeit not maliciously) misgendering me. However, he has only known me to go by they/them pronouns since we met, so I don’t see why after nearly a year of knowing him he still couldn’t get them right.

As well as him having very aggressive body language while having conversations/arguments, which always made me very uncomfortable, but he never actually did anything, so I thought it was fine.

The turning point was one night when we were all hanging out, me and my friend M (19F) were talking about how unfair it is that guys can take their shirts off when it’s super hot outside and somehow it got to us talking about how boobs are technically secondary sexual characteristics and shouldn’t even be sexualized by society as much as they are.

J argued with us. The actual opinion on this argument is not important here nor what makes anyone the asshole, but essentially it boiled down to me saying that, if it was hot enough, I personally don’t think it should be wrong for me to be shirtless. He then told me to prove it by taking off my shirt. I said no. There were five other people in the room with us who would not consent to that and it wasn’t hot in the room.

After I explicitly said no to taking off my shirt, he doubled down. Said if I didn’t take it off my argument had no holding and that he was right, which made me uncomfortable. I didn’t feel like I needed to strip in my friend’s dorm to prove a point for a disagreement that really wasn't that serious and I didn't like that he pressured me to after I said no the first time. I can’t remember what I said in response, but the disagreement ended there thanks to the show we were all about to watch starting. However, it made me very uncomfortable for the rest of the night.

Later that night, we went out to get some food like we usually do and sat around in a circle talking. Two of my friends went up to get more food while the other three were having their own conversation which led to J and I talking. 

Now, some context: I’m autistic and I have sensory issues which make it difficult for me to eat food. There have been times when I’ve gone the whole day without eating, or maybe even multiple without, and I often stick to foods that are "safe" and won’t make me feel sick (most aren’t very nutritional/healthy).

I'm very aware of my difficulty eating and how unhealthy it is. I had been going back to my house every weekend in order to eat something other than the college food and even bought some vitamins to try and keep myself from getting severely malnourished.

That being said, I didn’t get a chance to eat much that day, and going out with them was my first genuine meal. After eating a meatball sub I got, M gave me her leftover grapes and I offhandedly said to J “I think these are the healthiest thing I’ve ate today.” 

And his response to me saying this was “You are so strange. You’re aware of how unhealthy you are, yet you never change.”

For the record, he doesn't know the specifics of my difficulties with eating. I’ve only vaguely mentioned it’s hard for me to eat and that I’m not able to eat a lot without feeling sick. Still, it felt really insensitive, very out of nowhere as we weren't having a serious conversation at all, and hurt my feelings. I got visibly upset at this and responded with a very bitter “Yeah” and immediately dropped the subject because it's not something I enjoy talking about. (This was also not the first time he has made comments about my self-care habits in such a way and while I believe he says them with good intentions I have stated multiple times it makes me feel worse).

I didn’t want to make a big deal out of nothing, so I texted my friends after we all headed back to our dorms about what happened. Both him telling me to take off my shirt and the comment on my eating and asked if I was making a big deal out of it by being uncomfortable and upset. They told me that both things were extremely rude (and that the shirt thing was technically sexual harassment, though I don’t want to call it that) and that I was justified in being uncomfortable. They then mentioned that they had their own issues with J being a little too aggressive in the past that they had brushed aside, but they felt that what happened to me justified talking to him about his behavior.

We tried our best to avoid an argument. We just wanted to have a civil conversation about it as we all genuinely care about him. But when I confronted him about my issues and H brought up the problems she had been having (which consisted of him being too aggressive, guilt tripping the others when he was told to back off, and not respecting her privacy in her dorm) he got very defensive. It escalated into an argument between H and J that escalated to H deciding to cut ties with him due to him refusing to listen.

A few hours later, J sent me and H a genuine apology, which we accepted. I thought things were fine between us, although there was lingering discomfort as there would be with most big arguments. When the semester ended he sent us all messages that he didn’t feel welcome in the group and that he thought it was better to cut ties permanently and wished us all well. 

I kind of feel like it’s my fault and that I caused unnecessary drama without meaning to.

AITA?

What are these acronyms?

[razzberrydazz]

The headcanon idea for either (or both) of Harley and Ivy being trans is so special to me. Like. Pamela being trans adds so much angst and intrigue and context for her general hatred and distrust for men. Harley being trans and/or gender non-conforming as one of many ways she's seen as weird and crazy and probably served as a point of contention between her and Mistah J and fueled some of his abuse. Content warning for discussion of gender roles, misogyny, and transphobia.

Pamela having to deal with the socialization and treatment of being seen as a boy growing up, the disparity between how boys and girls are treated especially in white christian american suburbia, the stigma and backlash against a 'boy' liking girly things, seeing what the boys do and 'boys will be boys' and all the misogyny built in. Having an interest in flowers and plants and botany and gardening being seen as a girly thing as a kid for some reason. Showing emotions other than anger and arrogance and apathy being seen as feminine, which causes so many men to be emotionally constipated and have anger issues because they'll channel their sadness and upset into anger. Then women not being taken seriously because of their emotions, being treated as dumb and naive.

Pamela dealing with the prejudice and stigma and transphobia of trying to transition, being seen as a drag queen or gay for wanting to dress femme. Dealing with femininity and womanhood being seen as lesser, inferior, by men. Growing up being shoehorned into the role of 'man', in the specific cookie cutter way western society at large expects men to act, despite that specific way of existing being toxic even to the men who abide by it. How it harms men and women alike to conform to this mould. If cis men weren't socialized and expected to be such a toxic way, if trans men weren't treated as jokes or as just girls playing pretend, if trans men and trans women didn't have to feel the pressure to be hypermasculine/hyperfeminine and conform to misogyny in order to be affirmed and accepted.

Like, no fucking wonder Pamela hates mankind, emphasis on the man in mankind, if she was forced to live as one against her wishes. Seeing firsthand how male socialization and misogyny taints everything. She'd know exactly how to seduce and play men like fiddles, having to deal with that firsthand experience.

With Harley, her being trans and/or gnc in any way would definitely serve as a point of contention with the Joker. Oh I feel it in my bones he'd be a transphobic piece of shit. Even if he himself was trans, I just know he'd be transphobic and act hyper-misogynistic to compensate. Misgendering Harls and being generally slimy and transphobic to her whenever she ticked him off, only gendering her correctly when she's 'earned' it. Forcing her to dress hyperfeminine and wear that femme sexualized jester outfit and act a specific form of feminine in order to appease him and 'prove' she's what she says she is.

Even gymnastics is fucking gendered in how men and women train and what feats they do in their routines. Harley taking gymnastics either way would still be affected by gender roles and would build up muscle and flexibility differently depending on which role she's forced into. Women in gymnastics being far more flexible and strong in their legs, while men in gymnastics are far stronger in their arms and core, because men do a lot of routines involving the arms supporting their entire weight via upper body and women do more routines involving their legs. I'm not a gymnast so I'm not an expert this is just from my observations.

Harley's gymnastics would be affected by gender roles, her pursuit of academics is affect by gender roles (men working for doctor's degrees being taken seriously, meanwhile women often being assumed to have slept their way to success - highlighting an issue that people in power will take advantage of women as leverage in order for said women to get where they want), her being taken seriously as a villain and hero alike is affected by gender roles (being assumed as a sidekick as a woman, being taken more seriously as a standalone vigilant or villain as a man, seen as more threatening as a man than as a woman, being seen as deviant if she's gnc or otherwise 'clockable' as trans).

Harley only feeling safe exploring her presentation and gender again once she's free of the Joker, only to still deal with the stigma from the general public at large. But Ivy understands, Ivy gets it. And Harley gets Ivy.

Harley when she's still just Harleen, a psychiatrist, affirming Ivy and understanding and comforting her because she gets the trans experience, being trans herself. Ivy feeling safe with Harley/Harleen, safe to present and feel the way she wants. Trans Harley understanding that being trans is not a mental illness to be cured to return to the status quo. Understanding that dysphoria is more often than not a side effect of how society treats them.

Insert that meme of explaining trans issues to cis people as if you're having to explain it to toddlers and baby them, but explaining it to other trans people being like greek philosophers waxing poetic.

Harley and Ivy being trans but in different ways, and being able to give each other advice on things. Harley teaching Ivy how to do better makeup, Ivy teaching Harley different walking gaits to better present, them swapping each other's clothes, doing each other's HRT injections for them, taking care of each other and watching over their recovery when/if they get surgeries to better affirm themselves. Them knowing it's not arbitrary physical sex characteristics that make them who they are, it's their choices of making themselves who they want to be that matters.

They may be misfits, but they're misfits together, and they love and support each other.

"This One's Mine" pt1

This is another one of my lil daydreams based on the premise of my fic Another Life, but this is NOT part of the main timeline of that story. P.S. I wasn't gonna make this multiple parts but it's getting long and I haven't posted my writing in a while so here we are

synopsis: the Heart Pirates and Straw Hats run into each other, initiating Rain’s first meeting with the crew he had admired for so long.

word count: 2.2k

pairing: trafalgar law x named self insert

CW: named self insert who is also a trans catboy, (accidental) misgendering, mutual pining, jealous/possessive Law

After being underwater for a handful of weeks, I was delighted to learn that we would soon be stopping to resupply. I was starting to go stir crazy after being cooped up for so long. I desperately needed sunlight and fresh air. We all did. Even the Captain, though he wouldn’t admit to it.

Law had been extra grumpy lately, his increased irritability making the whole crew miserable. No one knew what had caused the change. His mood swings were nothing irregular, nor his cold demeanor, but I was surprised at the way he was acting toward me.

We had grown much closer in recent months, taking comfort in each other’s peaceful introvertedness. I had been spending much of my free time with him in his office, the both of us quietly doing our own tasks with the occasional bout of conversation. I would regularly ask about what he was working on, and listen intently as he rambled about whatever research he was doing, even if I didn’t understand all of it. He would do the same for me, though I’m sure he was hardly interested in my crafts or fiction novels.

The longer this went on, the more comfortable we grew together. Eventually, he began to linger closer to me, both in his office or otherwise. He would often sit in the kitchen with me when it was my turn to cook, not only keeping me company but also (sometimes feigning reluctance) taste testing for me. We sat together during most mealtimes, me seeking him out if he didn’t do so first. In his office, he had begun to lounge with me in the comfy little alcove that I had all but claimed. Occasionally, I would give him small, affectionate touches, such as a hand on his shoulder, or teasingly bumping my hip into him. He was extremely awkward about the physical affection at first, blushing like mad whenever it happened. Worried I was making him uncomfortable, I stopped. A few days later, he hesitantly placed a hand on my head while passing by me in the hall as I swept. I wasn’t expecting it, nearly jumping out of my skin at the contact, then blushing harder than he ever had when I realized what had happened.

“S-sorry,” he muttered, moving to dart away in his embarrassment.

“No, it’s okay!” I put a hand on his arm, partially to stop him, partially just to return the touch. “You just startled me,” I giggled, ducking my head to hide my flushed cheeks.

I wasn’t sure if it was my blush or my laugh that caused his mouth to quirk up into his usual half-smile. Once again, he placed a hand on my head, this time giving my ear a small rub, before walking away. I thought my heart would explode. Physical affection became more commonplace between us after that occurrence.

Although my senseless crush on him persisted, I knew better than to perceive Law’s touches as anything more than platonic. For one thing, he was my Captain. I knew it would be unwise for us to be in any sort of relationship, should things go wrong between us. Certainly, he would agree, if the matter were proposed to him. Additionally, I didn’t think that he could ever view me that way. The idea that he might have romantic feelings for someone like me was almost comical. Therefore, I kept my feelings hidden as best I could.

Despite how close Law and I had gotten, he suddenly started acting cold and distant toward me. He acted almost the same as he had when I first joined the crew: like he wanted nothing to do with me. He wouldn’t even answer the door when I went to his office, knocking rhythmically as I always did. I didn’t have a clue as to what caused the change, only suspicions. I knew Law well enough to understand that he would probably talk about it when he was ready. That, or he would work past it on his own and eventually start talking to me again. Or, at least I hoped he would.

Secretly, I wondered if I did something wrong. Maybe I overstepped a boundary or said something that upset him.

Though I tried my best to ignore it, the distance that Law had put between us made me gloomy. He was the only one that I felt I could speak to freely, him being the only person on the crew who knew where I truly came from. The loneliness weighed me down. I could only hope that being able to step out of the submarine would lift my spirits.

I exited the ship beside Ikkaku, the two of us being the last to leave. We were surprised to find a crowd that didn’t just consist of our crew waiting ashore. I stopped dead in my tracks when I recognized those who had joined us. It was hard to miss Cyborg Franky’s massive, shiny metal arms. If he was here, was the rest of the Straw Hat crew here as well? Looking closer, I could see the blue and pink hat of Chopper, riding on Franky’s shoulder, and the dark curtain of Robin’s hair. Glancing around, I could see the Thousand Sunny docked nearby us.

Still unmoving, I asked Ikkaku, “Aren’t they part of the Straw Hat crew?” Though I already knew the answer.

She threw an arm over my shoulders, exclaiming, “Don’t be shy!” She tugged me to where the two groups stood. “We’ve worked with the Straw Hats before you joined. I think you’ll like them. Plus, you don’t have to talk to them.” Suddenly, she barked out a laugh. “Look at our Captain,” she chuckled. “He’s so mad.”

Indeed, Law had a look of pure annoyance on his face, like these were the last people he wanted to see. Despite this, Chopper was talking to him with so much animation that he was nearly falling off of Franky’s shoulder. Law turned to look at Ikkaku and I as he heard us approach, still a good distance away. When I made eye contact with him, he beckoned us over with a slight tilt of his head.

I hesitated, glad he was acknowledging me, but unsure if this meant he would start speaking to me again. Though, I couldn’t ignore my Captain, nor could I resist taking the opportunity to meet some of the Straw Hats.

Law’s gaze remained on me as Ikkaku and I made our way over, her arm still around my shoulders. The three Straw Hats followed his gaze, the small amount of conversation fading as the group’s attention was averted.

“Rain-ya,” my Captain began once I was at his side, “I thought you might want to meet some. . . ‘colleagues’ of mine.” The corner of his mouth lifted slightly into a knowing smirk as he peered down at me.

My heart fluttered as he smiled at me for the first time in days, and I couldn’t help returning it, shyly averting my eyes. “You were right,” I said quietly. “I never thought I’d meet any of the Straw Hats.” I grinned up at them.

Robin gave me a warm smile in return. “Do you know of us?”

I nodded, looking away once more, unable to meet her icy blue eyes. “I’ve heard a lot about y’all back home.” I grabbed the end of my tail, toying with it shyly as I said, “I actually kind of admire you guys.”

“I guess there’s no need for introductions, then, bro,” Franky chimed in.

I gave a slight shake of my head. “That’s not necessary,” I laughed lightly.

Suddenly, a voice came from a few yards behind the three. “Robinnn~! There you are my love~!” I didn’t have to look to know who was speaking. Moments later, Sanji appeared at Robin’s side, carrying what looked to be a bento box. “I made you some snacks in case you get hungry while you’re out today!!” He seemed to only have eyes for Robin. For the moment, at least. This is exactly what I would have expected of Sanji. I couldn’t stop myself from giggling, which drew his attention to Ikkaku and me. I could almost see the heart eyes bulging out of his head. “Oh myy~! I didn’t realize there were such cute girls on Traffy’s crew!”

I stiffened. I hadn’t been misgendered in a long while. Still, I should have expected it, meeting new people. Thankfully, Law and Ikkaku came to my defense.

Ikkaku finally released me to place her hands on her hips. “There’s only one girl on this crew and that’s me!”

“Rain-ya isn’t a girl.” The annoyance in Law’s tone was prevalent.

Sanji looked at me with wide eyes. “I didn’t— But you look—”

Ikkaku cut him off. “He likes to dress feminine, but he’s not a girl. If you can’t respect that, I’ll kick your ass!”

I was glad that she defended me so vehemently, but threatening him was a little overboard. “Dude, it’s okay.” I put a hand on her arm. “He didn’t know.”

She huffed, “Well he does now,” and crossed her arms over her chest.

Sanji bowed his head, lighting a cigarette. “It wasn’t my intention to offend you. Please forgive me.”

I gave him a smile. “No worries, Sanji; It’s a common misconception. You’re already forgiven.”

Instantly, Sanji was back to his senseless doting. “Darling Rain, you’re so sweet~! How can I ever repay such kindness?”

Although I expected this, I was still bashful at his attention. Blushing, I mumbled, “Don’t worry about it.”

Beside me, Law was still and silent as a statue. I knew him well enough to tell that he was simmering in anger and annoyance, but the anger surprised me. Surely, he knew that Sanji would act this way. Whether he did or not, it didn’t stop his murderous glare toward Sanji.

Unable to keep his attention to one person, Sanji turned to Ikkaku, which seemed to make Law relax a little. Sanji said, “My dear, you defend your friend with such valor! Your feistiness is irresistable~! Please, let me—”

“Not interested,” Ikkaku cut him off once more.

Undeterred, Sanji’s attention came back to me. “Girl or not, you’re still so cute! With your shyness and adorable cat ears~!”

Law spoke finally, warning in his voice. “Back off, Black Leg.”

Whether Sanji heard him or not, I couldn’t tell. His praises continued. “Sweet Rain, allow me to repay your graciousness by taking you on a date!”

“I said, back off.” Suddenly, Law wrapped his free arm around my shoulders and pulled me into his side.

I was startled by his sudden touch, after how cold he had been acting toward me recently. Additionally, he had hardly even shown me any sort of affection in front of our crew. That he would do so in front of others shocked me. What shook me even more were the words he spoke next:

“This one’s mine.”

Silence.

The Straw Hat crew members gaped at us in shock, aside from Robin, who gave a pleased smile. Even those of our crew who lingered behind us had stopped their own conversations to listen in. I could feel my face going red hot as I processed what he said.

His?

Sanji took a puff of his cigarette, clearing his throat before addressing me. “That true?”

I glanced up at my Captain, though he didn’t meet my eye, still glaring at Sanji. The tips of his ears were red, his cheeks tinged with pink.

I was bewildered that he would say such a thing. Did he mean anything by it? Did he expect me to just go along with this? How could he, especially after the way he had been ignoring me the past few days?

As confused and annoyed as I was by Law’s behavior, he was still my Captain, and my friend. I wouldn’t embarrass him by exposing his fib. However, we would talk about this later.

“Y-yeah. . .” I looked at the ground, and shyly wrapped my arm around Law’s waist. He stiffened slightly in surprise at my touch, but relaxed immediately. This close, I could hear his heart thundering in his chest, mine thudding along with it. “It’s true.”

“WHAT??” Ikkaku squealed from my other side. Behind us, the remainder of our crew shouted and whooped, almost as loud as Ikkaku. Robin’s pleased smile widened, Chopper and Franky laughing joyfully beside her. Embarrassed by the attention, I cringed into Law’s side, more or less trying to hide. Too abashed to lift my head, I couldn’t look at him, but I knew that he would be embarrassed as well. Still, he gave my shoulder a reassuring squeeze.

Sanji took another long, thoughtful drag from his cigarette, seeming displeased. Despite this, he said, “Understood,” and stepped away, back to Robin’s side.

Some of Law’s tension ebbed as Sanji backed off. He looked over his shoulder at our crew members behind us. “Don’t you all have things you should be doing?” They quieted, scrambling back to their tasks.

“Actually,” I cleared my throat, finally glancing up at him, “I also have things I should be doing.”

He stared into my eyes a moment, then said, “Right.” He released me, and I did the same. “Go,” he said, placing a hand on my head and giving my ear a stroke with his thumb. “See you later.”

I gave him a small, bashful smile as I placed a hand on his shoulder, giving it a light squeeze. He surprised me by returning my smile. “See you.” I ducked my head, then grabbed Ikkaku by the arm, towing her with me to the market.

As we retreated, I heard a voice in the distance, likely from the Sunny, shout, "TRAFFYYYYYYY!!" Once again, I didn't need to look to know who spoke. For the time being, dealing with Luffy would be retribution enough for Law, putting me on the spot as he did.

However, Ikkaku began grilling me with questions about my relationship with Law, questions I didn't have answers for.

This was going to be a long day.

Trans soap!! :]

Idk why but that head-cannon scratches an itch in my brain. Like everyone being very supportive and welcoming but is also like “misgender soap you won’t live to see another day” price is vey protective of his trans son he has shirt I bet that say “I love my trans son”. laswell is also very supportive because her wife is trans as well (soap and her wife talk often). then just soap being very happy that he found a family ( another head-cannon that soap actually has big trauma just internalize it differently)

That’s so fuckin cute aye. I reckon besides Price Ghost is probably the most protective over Soap for it and has/will brutally maim someone for misgendering him, and Price turns a blind eye cause that’s his son and if he can’t do anything about it he’ll make sure Ghost finds out and does something.

Laswell obviously knows about it (cause she knows everything about them, it’s part of her job to know about her men) and she full on looked at him, looked at her wife and went, “you two are gonna love each other.”

And introduced them. Now those two have like a monthly meet up where they talk shit about their partners and just bond in general, it’s really fuckin cute and wholesome.

Soaps fuckin ecstatic that he’s found people who accept and love him and someone who he can share his struggles with and have them just understand. Every so often though maybe someone says something or one of the guys say something (with no intention of hurting Soap) but it just reminds him of something from his past and it hurts.

It hurts him and he gets insecure but Soap being who he is laughs it off. He makes jokes and and jabs at his own expense cause it’s how he copes. He found that that’s the easiest way to get out of those situations and never quite managed to break the habit.

Ghost noticed and is trying to help him stop it, tells him that it’s completely fine for him to just be hurt and get angry. Soap’s a little more open with his hurt and anger now but most times he’ll still revert to jokes and jabs, so Ghost will step in and makes sure the prick knows how wrong they are.
