#first time writing a gendered reader… it’s quite fun#but i have to keep reminding myself that he Has (gendered) Pronouns#because i always write the reader as having an undefined gender for the sake of accessibility and also my own comfort to some extent#my general verdict is not to write a gendered reader unless it adds to the story somehow (in this case it definitely does)#but if it doesn’t… it just makes it harder to write/ read for me#nothing quite like an untagged ‘her’ popping into existence when you’re reading through a nice little fic :’)#of course people writing reader-inserts don’t have to cater to gender identities which aren’t their own#but it doesn’t stop that being a little jarring for myself and presumably some others#so basically yeah. gender-neutral readers are (usually) the way to go for me#but straying from that is enjoyable so far because it’s going to inform a lot of the reader’s behaviour in this fic#r’s random thoughts#au: kitsune!heizou#heizou x reader
