Gay Dads AU

[ilivelikeimtrying]

(Gay Dads AU):

Ambrosius: I wonder where Nimona gets her attitude from? And that sass? She must've learned it from you, Balli.

*Also Ambrosius picking a fight and calling anyone who looks at his kid wrong every name he knows under the sun.*

Ballister: It's a complete mystery.

Me, before watching Nimona: Aww, the Nimona Gay Dads AU is super cute but isn’t that basically canon by the end of the film? Surely Nimona will survive to the end and be their menace of a daughter, right?

Me, after watching Nimona: Oh.

Releasing Nimona on the last day of pride month 2023 was such a great move because it’s a really needed piece of media right now. Lots of countries that legalised gay marriage years ago have been grappling with this rising TERF narrative of “if you’re gay it’s whatever but if you’re trans, non-binary or gender non-conforming in some way you’re a PERVERT! A MONSTER trying to GROOM CHILDREN!” The outrage against simple things like pronouns and drag events, and the movement against gender affirming healthcare have reached a terrifying peaks for contemporary times.

So a kid’s movie set in a fictional country with controlling government officials with personal agendas, with an openly gay couple but also a shape-shifting kid who cannot even be afford to be out is our reality in the US today. Nimona’s feelings about her vibe, body and form, her insistence that she is only “Nimona” no matter what she looks like and her aversion to “small-minded questions” together forms such a beautiful allegory about trans, genderfluid individuals.

Ballister asks her to be a girl, but for whose sake? It’s only for the comfort of people who refuse to understand her, and would rather see her die than let her be herself. And it’s this widespread rejection and loneliness that has eventually made Nimona indifferent to pain, that makes her feel suicidal.

In the end, it is another member of the LGBTQ+ community that truly sees and accepts Nimona for who she is. And that should be a reminder that we cannot let them divide us. Trans people stood up for the rest of us and made historical change happen, and we need to do the same for them. Besides, cis queer people are only the “good ones” until they’re done with trans people and then will turn on us.

Silly comic by a mum who knows well that children put you constantly in this kind of situations

[ilivelikeimtrying]

I just read your recent fic and I have a theory on how it might play out though I'm probably wrong.

Basically after the whole incident Ambrosius (if he lives) has amnesia and doesn't remember a lot and Ballister is trying to cope with that while Nimona is in therapy all in all they're trying to get their lives back together despite everything.I feel like there would be a scene where there's a full on breakdown and crashing realisation that nothing will ever be the same.Ambrosius would feel guilty for not remembering or having full context to the situation so he would end up among his own memories to fill in the gaps and delude himself into believing he knows whats to Ng on,Ballister doesn't say anything most of the time because he knows he's just trying to cope and feel normal.Ballister feels that it's his fault since he was driving and goes though numerous scenarios where he did something different to prevent it.Everyone is STRUGGLING.

I don't know how I came to all of that I just felt like it might go in this direction

Hello! I won't lie, this is actually very exciting because I've never had anyone do this and it's so awesome, thank you! Well, I don't want to spoil anything, but I do want to say that you're both right and wrong about the premise of how the story goes on. They're all absolutely going through it, and Nimona isn't the only one who needs therapy but yes, Ballister does absolutely feel guilty, and the family will be STRUGGLING.

The first chapter for the actual fic- like the actual actual fic not just a short fic about the past like the others- is in the making at the moment, so you might see sooner or later how this story goes. What you sent was absolutely amazing though! I'll absolutely keep in in mind for next time. Thank you for your message! It was extremely nice to see!

Hi!

Drew this Gay Dads AU thingy based over the illustration under the cut!

Also I just put a lot of color anywhere sjdkfjs I know it looks messy as hell but whatevers 😭

May draw it properly some other day 😔

Anyways, Nimona usually wakes up Ballister to ramble about her sea animals but now that there's Ambrosius too, he also gets his informative talk during the mornings (also Ballister, unbothered king)

In honor of the full trailer drop, have a “canonical non-canon gay dads AU but with the movie designs” AU
