so Momoe has a mysterious past. Deliberately obscure. Occupies an odd role in the gender-segregated world of sports. Seems to have had a clean break after junior high. Experienced with the medical system. Bonds quickly with Hanai ‘don’t call me Azusa’ Lastnameonly and Tajima ‘I hate tall guys’ Yuuichirou. Mentorship of Hanai carries clear undertones of seeing herself in him.

#kelsey liveblogs oofuri #it would add another fun and compelling aspect to their relationship to read all 3 as trans #tajima—gung ho about the whole thing. family supportive but a bit inattentive. often frustrated by the effort he has to put in #just to reach somebody else’s baseline (the height thing).#hanai—doesn’t regret transitioning for high school but deeply conscious of the social dynamics.#not helped by generally supportive mother not necessarily being the most sensitive with language.#momoe—been out long enough that she’s quite comfortable but has also been careful enough about covering her tracks #she’s a little…not resentful but conscious of the opportunities she gave up but she’s having too much of a good time to really get twisted #meeting hanai and tajima she tries to give them the advice she wishes she was given #crucial to this dynamic: momoe has good radar. tajima figures out momoe is trans from her obvious hints but not hanai.#hanai thinks he is all alone on the team. tajima is too wrapped up in rivalry feelings to clock hanai.#momoe has no interest in outing either of them but she is surprised that hanai has not picked up what she’s putting down yet #and so the dynamics are maintained. hanai and tajima are captivated by each other’s masculinity and also in awe of momoe. hanai is Afraid.
