This sort of case would have interested our old friend, Mr. Sherlock Holmes. Yes, indeed.

hii! honeslty just curious, I read/watched kuroshitsuji AGES ago and I don't think I've finished the manga anyway, does grell go by she/her?? I vageuly remember ppl headcanonning them as enby though iirc in canon he's a guy?

Your tags peaked my curiosity, I haven't seen any Kuro content in a hot minute, but I remember it being the absolute must watch in my peak anime watching years lol And I absolutely loved the manga's artstyle

in canon grell is a trans woman, yana toboso has said something like "grell is a man with a woman's heart" ages ago and sometimes around 2014/16 had tweeted something about wanting to be more careful with her representation of people like grell in the future, don't quote me on that thought because i only read that tweet once and only remember reading a shitty screenshot of a translation of that interview where she allegedly said that.

i can however show you this:

it's from a bonus chapter (after chapter 108) about the popularity polls (it's a very convoluted non canon chapter) but it's one of the most blatant example of her being trans.

there's also the way she constantly refers to herself as a "young maiden" ect. idk how it goes exactly in the og but in french they translated it so grell always refers to herself with feminine terms while everyone else misgender her including the narrator. she very consistently reaffirm herself as a woman through every single ones of her appearances, like it's a thing she very much does, every single time she's on screen.

i haven't watched the anime in forever (cause it's kind of a disgrace and insult to the manga lol) but if i remember properly (which i mostly likely don't) they did omit/lowkey censor some of grell explicitly going "i wish i had been born a woman/could have been able to carry children" when she first properly introduce herself as a shinigami & the other half of jack the killer. (the anime also really did lean a lot more into the pervert queer caricature whereas in the manga she's given a bit more dignity, especially the further the story goes. though that might be my own impression and maybe it didn't change that much i just love her a whole lot).

also because i have to, please forget the anime (the first two seasons that is) and read the manga first and foremost because oh boy, what a disaster the anime is (nostlagia and atmosphere wise it's entertaining, i really love the op & ed, but it just, i just cant man it doesn't even compare to the manga at all). only watch book of circus -> book of murder -> campania movie -> the new private school arc that's coming soon (idk what they called it) after reading the manga.

Reminder that it's perfectly okay to have kinks, wants, and thoughts. It's okay to like something or think about doing something that might not be considered morally acceptable by the majority of people.

Wanting ≠ Doing

Thinking ≠ Doing

You could think "I want to kill somebody", but you know for a fact you're not GOING to. You could think "God I really want to kill myself" but you know for a fact you're not GOING to. You could think "I want to hurt myself and/or hurt others" but you know for a fact you're not GOING to.

Don't feel ashamed about your kinks or thoughts or anything. You're not going to hurt somebody by just thinking or fantasising, and you shouldn't be hated for it either.

This also goes for roleplaying in bed, roleplaying the topic online, consuming media that contains fictional representation of the topics, or imagining it while you're doing something. If your kink is something illegal (the popular kinks are) or something that people would shun you for, then doing any of the above is fine since you're not encouraging it in real life, and you're not DOING it.

My mother got me an advent calendar, and today's note broke me. I'm shuddering at the ineffebility of it all

[sonadow4life]

Found this in my notes last night

It’s from 5 years ago

TW: talk of sh

Don’t know why

I don’t know why I do it

maybe for control

maybe for the perfect sense of finally feeling whole

I don’t know why I do it

maybe for relief

maybe for the feeling of blood sticking to my sleeve

You dont know why I do it

though you think you might

why I stay up, blade in hand, late into the night

You don’t know why I do it

You’re a stranger I barely know

so what gives you the right to judge me without so much as a hello?

[oatmealdaydreams]

sorry for being extra curious but if it's ok to ask (and with your rp partner's permission to discuss it) but what's the deal with Hyroh and Tyr, and how their class stories overlap?

@hyrohkaah GAVE ME ENTHUSIASTIC PERMISSION, LET'S GOOO!!!

Hehehe, some of it is in rp, a lot of it has already developed in dms, lol, bUT. The short of why they Work to begin with is we realized there’s a lot of parallels between the Jedi Knight story and the Agent story and then there’s a lot of similarities in how Hyroh and Tyr cope (or don’t, tbh) with these developments.

The Knight and the Agent are both lauded as one of the best of their kind and, long story short, also go through a period where they’re also perceived as a threat for this very thing that made them so desirable. And there’s the brainwashing and the expectation that all of this pressure and all of these hits won’t absolutely mutate your loyalties in any fashion. Hyroh and Tyr work a lot like mirrors at each other, usually for better and occasionally for times where their own vices grate on them when they see them in the other - usually their… self-sacrifical streaks, tbh. They’ve both experienced the pressure to step up and get a job done because they’ve been told that there isn’t anybody else and they’d like to spare anyone else the trouble and the pain and the way it breaks and reshapes your spine either way.

Hyroh and Tyr specifically don’t get the chance, ofc, to bond on all of this until they’re partnered up on Rishi against the Revanites by their respective… handlers, we’ll say. Lana brings in Tyr and Theron brings in Hyroh, and together, the two of them run the front field cover for the Red Blades, learn how to work together, learn that their core ideals aren’t so different from one another despite what their faction allegiance looks like on the outside at first glance and… end up falling for each other and for the mutual peace they find in being able to remove themselves from roles that had been suffocating.

Rishi becomes that place, the time, they long to return to - a space they carved out for themselves between a war that’s consumed most of their lives. They entertain running off together after the Coalition wraps work on Yavin IV, but… Tyr worries he has enemies that wouldn’t let them rest, that he hasn’t set up a clean enough exit to give Hyroh that promise. Not that Hyroh doesn’t promise to fight them all himself - and Tyr would believe it, but… He needs to make sure he can do it for real. That he gives them the best chance he can.

That best chance is Ziost. Tyr uses the decline of Sith Intelligence and the chaos erupting across the planet to quietly disappear except for their close circle of contacts and spends the next several months at Hyroh’s side as the search for Vitiate continues. And, true to their nature, he gets… pulled into the mess of KOTXX and onward by… wrong place, wrong time, and that… nagging inability to know when to quit. That they both share. And they take turns checking in one another. [Which. is also how we had Commander!Hyroh au with Tyr going all brooding hunter for 5 years before becoming Hyroh's violently protective bodyguard during the Alliance era]

I’d say probably one of the most important things is Hyroh teaches Tyr how to value himself, to actually stop and think long enough about why he’s doing something so he can get somewhere in processing whether or not it’s because he desires that outcome and believes in the goal or if it’s just… the expectations he’s been hardwired to follow for something like half of his life at that point. Hyroh loves so earnestly and openly and completely that Tyr can’t… help but be stopped in his tracks by it. It’s so completely unlike anything else he’s ever had or been given; he’s loved, certainly, but his life has been one of half-truths and double meanings. He’s never been in a position to throw caution to the wind so freely. Joel describes Hyroh as unable to be anything but himself and it cuts Tyr to the quick. He can’t help but be transfixed, drawn into the warmth of that smile and the unquestioning embrace. And Tyr loves him in return in absolute devotion in… a way that’s not always graceful. Tyr means it when he says he’ll do anything for somebody - and that includes lying. That’s not easy for Hyroh. That’s a harder line. It causes some strife for them when they get into the Alliance era and find themselves again wrapped up in the same old war. They’re both driven, unable to leave something so important unfinished, unable to accept the cost of letting the burden fall to another’s shoulders when there’s still more they’ve left to give and it’s hard to swallow seeing it in the person you love like it’s breathing.

Really, at the end of the day, they both wanted to walk away. They’re both worn by everything they’ve been through, by the never-ending nature of this conflict they’ve practically grown up in and have been shaped for and by and they find an unexpected haven of understanding and trust in each other. As much heartache as knowing intimately what their struggles are like from having shared experiences can cause, it usually makes them pretty decent at pulling each other up when the going gets too rough to face alone. Hyroh can’t physically fight all of the nightmares that haunt Tyr, that keep him chained to his past for so long, and Tyr can’t fight Hyroh’s battles for or sometimes even with him given the galaxy-spanning nature of them, the unknowable and unpredictable limits of Vitiate’s power when he's just a man with an arsenal of blades and a fairly trained shot with a pistol and rifle, but it doesn’t matter, in the end. In the end, what matters is that they’re together.

And Tyr finds that Hyroh’s someone that makes him want to keep that promise. Tyr’s lied for plenty of people. He’s lied to himself for longer than he can bear to admit, even in the safety of Hyroh’s arms, bleeding hearts entwined. But for Hyroh, he’d live. Live. Not just survive. He’ll find what the way out of this endless cycle is. And they’re going to do it holding hands.

And he’ll love Hyroh unconditionally, through every change, despite and for the changes. They’re more than what they were made to be. He hopes he can return even half of the love and support Hyroh's shown him over the years.

I’m. insane about them and I love them and we’re so, so completely in deep with them, bro. I’m just. I hope this even half conveys what they’ve done to me akdfnlsdfnlsdfdsaf.
