Ulysses obsession with the Courier is a special type of sad to me cause the Courier’s part was so important but so unwitting. They had no idea what was in the package they delivered and neither did he. Neither had an idea of what it could’ve done and the Courier was only caring out their job (mind you the Courier could be killed via notes in the express contract if they don’t). To them it was just another regular delivery to the divide and one that they likely thought would help, just like all the ones before.

It’s so tragic for Ulysses to hold so much ire to the Courier when it really was the case of it could’ve been anyone. Anyone could have delivered that package but they did and so he focused the blame on them and it destroys what he is trying to instill in the courier on a fundamental level.

Another time rift opens at the Everywhen Inn and an unlikely pair emerges.

Some hours earlier (relatively speaking):

So i just want to vent actually but you won‘t believe what happened today? Like i was at the verge of tears! so i had this Art class today and the topic‘s Graffiti and we had to make some sketch about something that interests/angers us (also something about democracy idk) and me and some other guys wanted to do something about free palestine. BUT THEN MY ART TEACHER JUST STRAIGHT UP DIDNT ALLOWED US TO WRITE/CREATE ANYTHING ABOUT PALESTINE as our work gets shown in an art gallery. And i just wanted to make a statement with my art and maybe help those poor kids but no!

like actually i dont frigging care who started this conflict- all i care about is that these children get the fuck out of a bomben place and don‘t burn to death.

what even is the point in creating something then

actually i am gonna ignore the statement of my Teacher and just do it like- what is she gonna do??

thanks for letting me vent- also your older!boyfriend simon is incredibly 🤌🏼✨

-🕯️

what do they say? art should disturb the comfortable and comfort the disturbed?

ask you art teacher is they had this much of an issue with “guernica” by picasso? or his “the charnel house” if that shouldn’t have been made? even if they had issues with kanso’s works?

your art teacher is in the wrong fucking profession if they wish to stop people making anti-war statements through art

they’re in the wrong profession if they think they have the ability to control the kind of art someone makes, in general

It wasnt with any instance in mind specifically but i have seen some great mhyk cisbends actually. And i love the idea of fem arthur! I hadnt considered faust or heathcliffe but im on board now! I saw a tweet once that said mithra should grow boobs in tiletta's honor and i support that... i suppose the post was made with enstars in mind cuz ive been thinking about cis girl izumi lately (he's nonbinary to me in canon but i think his rship with his mom in portrait wouldve been sooo interesting with the added layer of daughters turning into their mothers... im also fond of hetbending loiz but for it to be no different whatsoever from their canon rship. But i also think iz-mk-lo would be interesting had they All been girls...)

But i also think transgenderism in wizard world would be interesting to explore, not just imagining what if they had been cis girls. I wonder if trans humans resent wizards for having the ability to transform themselves... or if, like with curseworkers or doctors, there are wizards who specialize in giving humans hrt potions and surgeries. In a world where murr was into medicine he wouldve brought hrt to humans so they wouldnt have to rely on wizards...

mithra SHOULD have boobs in tiletta's honor tbh. In my mind, cisbent mithra would go from wearing no bras because she dgaf to wearing pushup bras as a way to carry on tiletta's legacy.

Also NONBINARY IZUMI TRUTHER, I SHAKE YOUR HANDS

Izumakoleo as all girls...omg your mind....we could have the best yuri how did no one else think of this. As expected of the president o7 i salute

And now onto wizard genders: we do know of a few wizards with funky gender in canon. They can use magic to shapeshift after all. Here are a few i can think of at the top of my head. Spoilers for ms2 for everyone else but i'm sure you don't mind lol

Figaro mentions having a friend that is born a wizard, shapeshifted into a witch and stayed like that, even ended up carrying a baby to term and giving birth

There's a western witch who presents exclusively as a wizard in front of humans in ms2. I never even thought about how human-wizard dynamics might affect genderfluidity but that sure is interesting

Rustica has been a transguy to me since reading ms2. Idk if i am the only one interpreting it as that but i swear there's a part i read as him having been a western princess. Because of that i like to imagine/headcanon chloe is also a trans guy and kept the feminine name rustica style.

Figaro, man. Figgy is just. SO painfully transfem like omggggg. Besides being so Eldest Daughter™️ coded in northfam, the ridiculous amount of times he's been like "btw if anyone wants to see me as a beautiful woman pls let me know" girl do YOU want to be a beautiful woman??? It's definitely in character for fifi to be a certain way and then try as hard as possible to hide it, perhaps even lying to oneself about one's true nature.

"this has nothing to do with antisemitism"

If you know what this really means you would know how fucked up that comment is.
