[ironunderstands]

Not a question, just very happy it's not just me loving IP3 (or trans Ratio for that matter). Yap away on both

Ugh I love them both so much

Most of my headcanons are when I find something to be better and/or more interesting than it is in canon, or something that’s a great extension of canon, and that’s exactly what trans Ratio is to me.

It takes his already present insecurities and squares them, as now the doctor has to contend with not just being a SMART enough man, but being a smart enough MAN, and adding that extra layer of misery and complexity is just so delightful.

By taking a character racked by self doubt and adding another layer to it, like Ratio being trans, you complicate his current insecurities and give new perspectives to look at them from.

Like in canon Ratio exercises so much because he wants to be the most perfect, best version of himself and has been doing it since a very young age (middle school).

But then you add him being trans to that, and suddenly he’s not just combating being perceived as not good enough, he’s combating being perceived entirely, attempting to try and get others to view him the way he really is, and attempting to live up to whatever masculine ideal that would push away his dysphoria, something prominent within his life from a young age.

I’ve kinda dived into this within my fics about it, but I like the idea that Ratio keeps this a secret from everyone- and I mean everyone. He already doesn’t live up to his own expectations of himself, so to have the rest of the galaxy find out that he doesn’t live up to their expectations of him either (ie being a cis man I mean you cannot tell me there aren’t like hundreds of people in universe begging for his uh- yeah), it would crush him.

I mean considering how guarded he is already, adding another thing to hide behind that alabaster mask would be fun, even if I think Ratio is likely at least a decade post-op + post-transition, so it’s not like he has to bind or anything, but the threat is still there. Especially considering his well known love of baths- imagine if he avoided the public baths at his home planet (considering how heavily Greek/Roman inspired Ratio is), and how that might affected him growing up, or just the tendency of shirtlessness in general.

There’s just a lot of possibilities and intricacies to it that makes me really like this particular headcanon, and it will always be canon in my heart haha. I have some more silly things behind it, like me wanting to give Aventio and Ratiopaz biological kids because it would be cute, or just the inherent joy of the big buff guy actually being the trans one rather than who you would expect it to be/who it’s stereotypically made as- Aventurine, as I like when characters have traits you don’t expect them to possess.

I also tend to dislike Aventurine being made ftm because he’s implied to be an SA survivor and rep for amab victims is already kinda abysmal so I don’t like taking it away, also I just think it’s boring tbh, at least for me it just doesn’t interest me.

Trans Topaz is a whole other discussion, personally I think she’s mtnb, and more femme presenting (I’d make her use she/they in my fics it’s just pronoun swapping when writing polyamory is miserable and anybody who’s ever written it can attest to that 😭, it’s there in spirit I promise!)

I honestly don’t have deep reasons behind this one, it’s just pure vibes. Someone was like, “Topaz gives nonbinary” once on here and I’m like yeah, yeah she does 😭. She reminds me of Childe a lot and I also view him as nonbinary so she’s kinda in a similar boat.

I think she’s very motherly but like in the way Mother Nature is if that makes sense? Mother is mothering but she’s also a creature tm* and certified tax collecting humanity loving entity. Also I have a close friend who’s a trans woman and Topaz reminds me of her so like, bam ur trans now lol (hi Alice if ur seeing this).

As for Aventiopaz, I fear I’d need a whole other post dedicated to why I like them. You guys know why I like Aventio, Avenpaz also require a whole other yap session, and Ratiopaz is the best rarepair ever fight me. Generally I like it because it’s really sweet, the dynamic is hilarious, they are the power trio of all time, they have great gameplay synergy, and their designs complement each other a lot- being primary colors and all.

I also enjoy their individual unique relationships to the IPC and how that might affect their interactions with one another, both in canon and in my brain. Moreover the trio of coworkers who are well known around the office for a) getting the job done and b) being absolutely obnoxious around one another (in a good way) is incredibly fun and I enjoy the idea of all the shenanigans they would get up to.

Perhaps my next Aventiopaz fic would be them going on a mission together or something, as I definitely want to write another one, and also update my slideshow of the parents au, I’ve just been so busy and a bit unmotivated 😭 so hopefully I can get to that soon

[ironunderstands]

good news everyone

THIS NEXT FIC IS GONNA HAVE AVENTIOPAZ IN IT HEHEHEHEHHEHEHEE 🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭

First he’s gonna have the worst day ever though lmaooo

I literally named this fic, “Ratio’s terrible no good very bad awful day,” in my google docs 😭

[ironunderstands]

Aventurine/Ratio/Topaz is the ship/OT3 I never knew I needed until I found this blog. Now I am consuming (positive) every single fanfic of it on Ao3.

This ship FUCKS.

:D I’m so glad you like it

I will definitely make more content of it in the future so dw, and my goal is for my stuff to be the majority of the fics on ao3 for it lol (although I’d love to see more IP3 fics haha)

[ironunderstands]

the Aventiopaz fic is finished :)

Ratio gets his ass kicked in this one lolll

[ironunderstands]

hopefully I can post this IP3 fic tonight lol

I love projecting the way I feel emotions onto my favorite fictional characters it’s great (sorry Dr. Ratio)

dw yall this will have a really sappy ending trust!

[ironunderstands]

I'm gonna admit I'm not the one to ship AvenPaz or Ratiorine which are somehow the two ships that always have discourses on Twitter.

But then I see your posts about Aventiopaz and those posts got me into the the ship.

Now I'm starved for more content how dare you /lh

HAHAHAHAHAHJAA YESSS I HAVE SUCEEEDED

dw I will make so much more content of them lmao, I am just feeling burnt out and busy bc it’s the end of the school year for me BUT TRUST ME THIS SUMMER I WILL COOK

Also happy pride month everyone!!

[ironunderstands]

i've had the thought stuck in my head that, if Ratio and Topaz have a biological kid, Aventurine would be the one who gets to pick the name, and he picks something related to rain (maybe even straight up Raine or something). just. Aventurine naming one of the kids something important to his heritage (maybe they'd even have another more traditional Avgin name that they only use around family)

oh fuck yes

Since Topaz named Diana, yeah it would make a lot of sense Aventurine would name the next kid.

I feel like him picking something related to the rain would make sense as it is something important to Aventurine past, however I’ll do you one better.

Why not name them after something rain related in Greek/Roman mythology, to match with Diana and keep up with Ratio’s whole Roman/Greek theming?

Zeus is a bit too prolific in my opinion, but I think searching up specific Hyades would be a good idea, as for Roman mythology, we could go with Neptune (Poseidon), Jupiter (Zeus) and Tempestas, who honestly sounds like a made up deity lol

Neither of the Greek or Latin words for rain seem rather fitting to be names, although I could see Ratio happily naming his baby Pluvia 😭

As for traditional Avgin names, I kinda don’t want to go for those, as I’m not very familiar with the significance of rroma names and naming, so sadly I don’t think I’m going to go there.

However, I will keep the rain idea on my mind when I name their next kid lol
