T4T copiiia but during the younger years

[firedragon1321]

I think Boy Gender might have saved Sora Takenouchi (I'm projecting, this post was made by a man dot jpeg, etc).

So yeah- I'm rotating a trans Sora AU. And it's teaching me the difference between AU, meta, and headcanon. Like it seems obvious but the lines have blurred over the years. And it's so magical and freeing to say "this is an AU and it's my playground". That said, there are meta elements in this post. So I tagged it as such. But it's mostly AU.

I say this bullshit because Sora's entire arc in Adventure is about reconciling with her mother and her femininity. That's how her story was always intended to be written. Her job in the epilogue is the final culmination of that. I can see how all of that was intended to work. Even if I don't personally like it.

But there's like. Such fertile ground for this AU. How accepting that feminine role drove Sora further and further into the background, away from her friends. And into a state so depressingly finalized that her Digivice spawned a timer, separating her from Biyomon. And how she worked best with everyone else when in a "take charge" role- albeit as "team mom", but refusing to sit on the sidelines based on gender.

There's also how Biyomon's evolutions get progressively masculine, and Biyomon is part of Sora's soul. Like I don't know how Phoenixmon fits into that. But look at this-

The instant Biyomon reaches her Champion form, she takes on a less traditionally feminine shape. And Garudamon is more masculine than feminine in build. Plus- and I only researched this for five seconds so I could be wrong- "Garuda," is also a male Hindu deity (and also a shape shifter and protector- just like a Digimon partner!). In tri, Birdramon has more pronounced eyelashes, the same way Minnie Mouse has eyelashes to denote her gender. But other than that...

Also this gives me the opportunity to mess around with Crests and how they work. Like, even in this AU, Sora would have the Crest of Love. I feel like its nature as compassion and caring will always be relevant to the character. But like. Wouldn't it be cool if the Crests themselves evolved? Like if the design changed with new revelations as the characters aged? Still the same in color and concept, but representing a more mature person.

For most of the Adventure crew, this would be standard character development stuff. For Sora? Gender.

I'd plant the seeds in Adventure, going more into detail as to what Sora's mother represents- traditional femininity- and how that wouldn't be merely annoying, but wrong. Like puppet strings that wind around the neck. I don't think Sora would have the words for that sensation yet. But the wrongness would be there. Even through forgiveness. And meeting halfway.

But in 02, Sora would realize where those feelings come from. Why the soccer pitch feels like home, and the flower shop a cage. I need more details but it's 4 AM and this is a general outline. But basically...

The 02 gang would get in trouble (after the ability to Digivice to Ultimate/Mega is restored to the OG gang). Only Sora could save them, due to being the only one available to go on the field. The enemy? A fuckton of Blossomon. For the symbolism. But mainly, there's too many for the 02 characters to handle, and they're split in a configuration where Jogress to Imperialdramon is impossible. Basically, a situation engineered so only Sora can resolve it.

Garudamon fights her hardest. But the numbers are too intense even for her. A Blossomon wraps its vines around Garudamon, trapping her. And to Sora, that vine on her partner's neck just seems so familiar.

Blossomon spits generic villain taunts about knowing one's place. This prompts Sora to peel back the layers of her own life. She thought her place was at her mother's flower shop. That's what forgiveness meant, right? But reconciliation is a two way street. She gave and gave and received nothing.

Not for the ache in her heart.

Not for the wrongness in her body.

Not for the vines choking her life.

And digging into her own neglected heart, she'd discover the soul of a man. It would be frightening and confusing. But it would also hold the strength she needs to win this battle.

That he needs to protect everyone.

And the Crest of Love within him would glow. Its shape would become less feminine, but still represent the love that Sora possesses. Like hands holding, or a stylized stone- the rock the others can rely on.

And of course Garudamon would digivolve- into Phoenixmon or something else- and save the day. Leaving Sora confused and shaken. He might even try to deny what happened. But the Crests never lie, and their power does not come from nothing.

So by tri., he'd be more masc-presenting (excluding school uniforms) as his mother falters. But Sora would hold out hope. And continue to love. So by Kizuna, he's met halfway at last, and can openly live as who he was always meant to be.

I do like the idea of Crest evolution in general and might revisit it. But for now this is loose word-vomit and more of wish fulfillment than anything substantial.

TRANS!SANEMI GETTING INJURED AND HAS TO STAY AT THE BUTTERFLY MANSION FOR A BIT???

Shinobu pointing out peculiar blood straying completely from his wound and Sanemi panicking because he realizes he's on his period

and then Shinobu being one of the first people he can confide in and who he's come out to (unintentionally prompted, of course), but then she's Kanae's little sister he can trust her. <33

Six dainty wheels and a shortstack dome, i'm sending these beats right into your home

Here is the point where I talk about a dumb little idea I had.

Trans masc Vlad Masters started out as Vlatka and his first roommate he ever had was Maddie. They became besties and Vlad started to develop a crush. Maddie was the first person he came out to and Maddie accepted this whole heartedly.

Maddie being the chaotic fire storm she is went momma bear and helped Vlad con the school to letting him be in the male dorms, which made Vlad fall for her.

Then his second roommate ever was Jack Fenton.

Boom instant friendship!

THE IDEA I JUST HAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My god.

Uhm. Uhm. Has anyone ever thought about... Well wait you know how Yamato decided to become a man like Oden... and basically seemed to have no attachment to his assigned gender at all... You know how I have said I see the same complete unattachment to gender... in Zoro....

What if.... Zoro, who does not care about being a boy or a man at all, decides to become a woman... to prove to Kuina's spirit and the world that being a woman doesn't mean you cant be the strongest?

Nonbinary trans butch Zoro.... Hello have we thought about this. *taps microphone* Is this thing on. Hello.

I think she would pursue medical transition as part of proving her point, ie, "see Kuina getting boobs would not have stopped you", and would be getting estrogen deliveries by bird lol. Which has potential to be a comically mysterious thing that they all try and fail to uncover the truth of. She would definitely fuck with them about it and give them all sounds of crazy red herrings. Despite not even really caring if they know, she trusts them, literally it's just for fun.

I think the clearest change this would cause to Strawhat dynamics is definitely her relationship with Nami. We all know how Nami feels about women. And being protected by them.... And I definitely see trans Zoro as a butch lesbian. ZoNa Yuri would be INTENSELY HOT AND ROMANTIC. Why haven't I seen this before actually it feels like it should be obvious.

If we include a tgirl Sanji headcanon as I know is much more popular (rightly so!) I think it would definitely help her coming out journey. I mean, to have someone on the ship who is already Doing That, would be monumental. If you keep their antagonistic relationship (as I would prefer to, at least in the beginning) then there is a lot of comedy potential as well as the obvious angst. Like I feel like finding out that Zoro is trans would definitely crack Sanji's egg but then it's like. Oh my god everyone is going to think I'm copying her. (<- no one would think this, she is crazy.)

It could be really fun!!!!! Think about it.....

one more au; if anything, I love these two with all my heart
