I maxed out my tags so that’s why they end abruptly
OK but trans hunter is so funny to me
Cus
There's a few different things to consider here
Are All the grimwalkers trans???
Did Philip Know Caleb was trans??
Or did he make the first grimwalker n be like, hmmm,,,, that's,,, not quite right, must have gotten the spell wrong,,
Only for it to Keep happening
He's also like, a witch hunter christian from the 1600s, maybe he just Assumes it's a grimwalker thing??? His mind can't like, think up any other explanation
And if it always happens
Does he just raise them as boys, does Hunter even know he's trans??? Dudes never been around other kids his age, so like, gender stuff prob just confuses him
Or does belos just like, sit around, waiting for the next grimwalker to come up to him and awkwardly and timidly explain that they would prefer to be seen as a boy actually,
Only to be pleasantly surprised with how well belos took it, not knowing this is the 45th time he's done this
#ok so in my Pacrim Owlphibia AU I do explore this a bit but in a way that sidesteps wether or not he’s cis„ he gets temporarily stuck in a#female body for reasons and gets mad dysphoria about it and has to suffer through it until he can be put back in his own body (or at least a#body approximating it). I wasn’t originally gonna tell y’all the context but I will now. Amity takes the other path she could’ve taken in#Eclipse Lake and kills Hunter„ though she immediately feels horrible about it so Eda takes the body over to Chell from Portal who is on the#knee for reasons to ask her to resurrect Hunter. this is an AU wherein Aperture has extremely advanced and well utilized cloning and soul#transfer technology and is among the stuff Chell brought with her when she skadoodled away from our earth. Sidebar this Chell is an extremel#y powerful psion/esper/psyker because she is a massive agglomeration of different Chell souls from the various mergers of ghosts of cloned#Chells from her decade long test subject tenure under GLaDOS. she communicates via telepathy but is not all that good at it and unintentiona#lly broadcasts images of her time in Aperture along with loud white noise whenever she telepathomunicates. in a previous encounter at the en#d of Adventures In The Elements she used telepathy on Luz and Eda to scan their entire memories and though Luz didn’t get Jack but a headach#e and a nosebleed„ Eda was able to discern that Chell had died many many times and was subsequently cloned„ moreover that Chell is familiar#with the process and potentially even done it a few times on the isles. have I mentioned that Eda spent at least a solid decade on earth rig#ht around after she got cursed? I explore the concept of Eda being boiling isles diasoporic in the AU. so she knows what cloning is. anyway#yeah Eda brings Hunter’s corpse to Chell and thankfully his soul is still in there but due to him being a grimmwalker there’s some complicat#ions in regards to regenerating or cloning the body„ so they have to shunt Hunter’s soul somewhere in the interim before he passes on. I hav#e three ideas about that: a soul blackbox (which is only to be used temporarily because it features the ‘relive the past five minutes for an#alysis’ feature as seen in GLaDOS)„ a personality core (Chell didn’t bring or make any)„ or put him in one of Chell’s so far unused clone ba#ckups„ preferably one that hasn’t fully formed relative to specification ergo more or less his age. they do this option after briefly puttin#g him in a blackbox so that he doesn’t go into the light while they discuss about it all. and do you wanna know the best part? I thought of#all this back at the end of 2a or early mid-season hiatus. the fact that I can further use this to explore Hunter being the philosophical#foil to Chell in their stances on the identity of clones (Chell is a staunch believer that all clones are identical in identity ie the same#person„ as informed by her being an aggar.io of Chell ghosts. Hunter is a believer that all clones are unique regardless of similarity„ they#are all their own individual people„ though they are still all FAMILY. I have it that he knew exactly the implications of the Hollow Mind#reveal in that he is the most recent in a long line of manufactured and duplicated people„ why else would he call the past guards family lik#e that when there was no previous indication that GG was a hereditary position? especially since Belos + collector were being very clear abo#t him being made and replaceable and furthermore a replacement for many before him. it was a choice to call them family and he knows exactly#what the details are. the circumstances.) is just icing on the cake here. I mean golly do I get to explore identity in extreme length and de#tail in this AU„ it and love are basically the full throughline of my current narrative span of 700 years. have I mentioned that Pacrim Owlp#hibia takes place over the course of 700 years? the first 5 of which not including time skips? I’d already made Anne into a god while simult#aneously indited the general big picture mindset of the 3 stones god before season 3b started airing. specifically towards the current final
