Hetalia au where its 2009 and their interests are based on the childhood I barely remember lmao

More under cut :)

Lorenzo took up skateboarding because Alfred likes it. I think what makes em start dating isn’t the skateboarding, its the fact they both religiously love Taylor Swift— but thats not until they’re in the 10th grade! He lives with his grandpa, so does Feliciano, but he often stays over at uncle Antonio’s because he has an xbox lol

If you’ve ever watched Clarence thats the energy I imagine Feliciano to have. Just the hyper weird kid. I imagine he’s that kid who was always moved around in the classroom for disrupting the lesson. He’s got a cute silly crush on Ludwig! But I don’t think they’d date until maybe after highschool, probably in college idk.

Alfred is obsessed with skating! His mom made him join the hockey team when he still lived with her, and from there it evolved into skateboarding. His brother Matthew still lives with mom, even took their new step dad’s name. Doesn’t really talk to Matt anymore since mom remarried and moved to Toronto. Might reconnect in their early 20s.

Ludwig hasn’t figured out he’s trans yet, probably will in late highschool. He spends the school year with his dad Gilbert and grandpa, while in the summer he heads back to his mom’s. This is how its been since he was a baby. His parents never married, mom says it was just a dumb mistake she made when she came across Gilbert in that club. Gilbert says it was the best mistake only because he got an awesome kid out of it. He lives next door to the Vargas boys.

"Friday" kiss

Thanks @somethingclevermahogony here!

Rules: post an excerpt in which there is a kiss! Platonic, romantic, familial, or otherwise, quick peck or make out session, doesn't matter!

I actually have one kiss in TSP and I posted that last time! SOTL has 0 so far.

Anyways, pulling in from a draft I have from IWAJAD that I wrote in high school:

From It Was All Just a Dream (short story version)

I smacked her arm off of me. Noemi spun toward me, jaw dropped in total offense, as if I had cursed her ancestors. “What did you just do?” “Hey, Ty,” I called over my shoulder. “There’s another thing I’ve decided to do.” I turned back to Noemi. “You’re a bitch. Bye!” Ty laughed as I stalked away, matching my pace easily. “That was awesome!” “You won’t get away with this!” Noemi shouted. “I’ll make your lives a living hell, you hear me! A living hell!” “What’s she gonna do?” Ty asked as we walked down the hall. “Spread rumors?” I suggested. “We’ll deal with it when it comes. Besides, she forgets we’re popular, too.” “Guess so,” said Ty. “Are you prepared?” I sighed as we came to a stop outside my history classroom. “I’m not sure. But I’m sick of being...a bully.” “Well,” said Ty, putting his hand on my shoulder, “I’m proud of you.” He leaned down and gave me a quick kiss on the lips. “I’ll see you in second!” “See you!” I said, grinning so hard my face felt as if it would fall apart. Kissing. That was something we hadn’t done in even longer. Mildly flustered, I walked inside the history room, spotting Phinessa at her desk.

lazy attempt at Hima's style

[amorprezioso]

Uhhh uh uh thought: trans romano having AWFUL cramps and spain cuddling him and giving him all he needs, singing to him with his guitar and soothing him to sleep once the cramps calm down so he can wake up with all the tomato-based food spain cooked for him while he slept..

[bitchapalooza]

I can’t stop thinking about Germany and Romano getting top surgery together and it’s the ONLY time these two get along well enough. Imagine these two waaaay early on when sex reassignment surgery is still pretty new, they were each other’s biggest comforts before and after the procedure. Romano putting his sour feelings aside and Germany being patient with his stubbornness. Idk it makes me happy and soft….

1961: A Trans Person 🏳️‍⚧️ on Topolino?

Transgender people and Disney comics, certainly a pairing not very foreseeable, especially if the year we are considering is 1961.

Crossdressing and gender promiscuity has always been present in animation and comics, but as the pun of the joke, engaging in mockering and belittlement of the misunderstood and discriminated minorities. So, dressing as a woman has been a pervasive trope in many children-oriented media. As a result of this transgender people have never been portrayed in a un-ridiculing way.

[I will skip the eventual reclaim of some of these problematic portrayals by the LGBTQ+ community that happened later on.]

However, if we want to focus on actual trandgender people, avoiding any confusion with crossdressing and generic gender non conformity, it's safe to state that no member of this community has appeared in any form of Disney media prior to 1961.

In 1961 on Topolino "Topolino e il gigante della pubblicità" was published. Written and drawn by Romano Scarpa, it's a story centered around the endeavour of Mickey Mouse in the advertisement industry, where he ends up working side by side with an apparently redeemed Peg-leg Pete.

The character we should focus on is Mac Faxtor, the boss of a cosmetic company, who reveals to have an original backstory. Mac is an AFAB person who decided to live their life as a man, to overcome some gender-based disadvantages of the female life. They were an ugly woman who mastered beauty care, but their tecniques had no effect on themselves. So, to avoid a bad prejudicial reputation, they decided to transition into a man. It's self-evident how this backstory renders their identification with the transgender community problematic.

First and foremost there is no explicit identification with a different gender than the one assigned at birth as, in fact, Mac uses male pronouns only in public, but in private and with Mickey, after he has discovered their secret, they use female pronouns. Thus it seems that despite presenting male in public, Mac still identifies as a woman. On the other hand, although the premise for the gender reassignment seems disconnected from their gender identity, Mac decides to transition to escape the prison that the stereotypical depiction of the feminine gender imposes on women: the unfair weight of socially constructed beauty standards that women suffer, compared with men, who have a more nuanced relationship with beauty and aren't expected to care about it as much as women (we all know how this impacts the different experience that men and women have with aging).

If we can't talk about gender dysphoria for the case of Mac, a level of body dysmorphia should be taken into account.

Mac's experience relates to the concept of outing too. The entire story revolves around the blackmail carried out by Peg-leg Pete to extort money from Faxtor in exchange for keeping the truth about them a secret. Mickey's intervention succeeds in exposing Pete's crimes, while protecting Mac's life in stealth, as we see at the end Faxtor in their villa, presenting female, but being addressed as a man.

We may assume that they have continued their life as a genderfluid individual, seemingly not detransitioning, nor completely blending in as a man.

Although the character's backstory may be off putting compared to modern understanding of the transgender experience, it is interesting to highlight that the element of mockery is severely undertoned, compared to contemporary depictions of the situation, and indeed replaced, by some extent, with a more tragic overview of the life of a transgender person.

Adding to this, any moral insertion is expunged, as the author appears uninterested with the social implications of such a gender non conformity. At that time we would have expected a more bigoted approach to the matter, but bigotry is nearly absent (albeit some comedic misoginy about women being afraid of mice) and the hero of the story works to preserve the life in stealth of the gender non conforming individual. Very progressive, considering the conservative timeframe and country (probably even author) and the fact that this story was produced for mass market.
