Ever wanted to read about trans final girls, some of whom may not be girls?

Her childhood home is full of photographs, Cinda peering out through frames at all ages. Awkward school pictures, stiff family portraits, candid shots taken on a playground and blown up. She’s wearing dresses in most of them, braids woven with beads and ribbon, makeup as soon as she was old enough. She liked it, is the thing. How it felt, the attention it got her, the reactions from her parents and peers.

She was—is—a girl.

She was—is—good at being a girl.

And that’s not how Ellie, who is the only transgender person Cinda knows, felt about it.

June’s blurred into July and the two of them have progressed from Twitter DMs to texting. Ellie doesn’t bring it up often—being trans—but sometimes she makes little jokes about it.

I was so bad at being a boy that I just gave up altogether, she says.

I respect women so much because I was meant to be one, she says.

On a more somber evening she says, I’ve always been me, even when I didn’t know it yet. I just hate that so much had to happen before I could realize. I wonder if things would’ve been different, you know?

Cinda does know, and she doesn’t. She doesn’t know at all.

It’s real

In honor of @cmdrtpol and their journey through Deep Space Nine I present a passage from “None of This Ever Happened” by Gabriela Santiago, an excellent short horror story in an excellent issue of Nightmare Magazine.

The best episode of Deep Space Nine is “Far Beyond the Stars,” in which Captain Sisko is suddenly and without explanation catapulted into the life of Benny Russell, a black science fiction writer in the 1950s. The great tragedy of Deep Space Nine is that you cannot immediately show this episode to any potential acolytes of the show, because in order to understand why it is the best episode you must have seen every episode leading up to it, so that you will love every character and understand every trope associated with them and weep in the final scene when Benny Russell insists that he has made a world, that knowledge alone can make a world, that the space station with a black commander really exists, it’s real, it’s real, it’s real!

Hey if anyone can help me find this story please let me know! I think it was either published in a Best Horror of the Year collection or in Nightmare Magazine, it’s on the tip of my tongue and I’d like to find it and read it again just to scratch the mental itch. I’ll give my best summary here so let me know if you have any possible matches:

The story is about a Japanese family, I know there is a father and a daughter (not sure if a mother is present in the story). They’re living in a house and the daughter is young and seems to be communicating with a ghost/entity that is also a little girl. At night the ghost girl wraps the little girl in her long hair and talks to her. Something in the house is also bringing little toys to life to play with the girl. Eventually the father/parents figure things out and to save the girl from being kept by the ghost they have to find talismans that are hidden inside the house made of parts of the ghost girl (think stuff like teeth or hair). I might have remembered some details wrong so even if part of this story sounds familiar let me know!

Jose Antonio Domingo, ''Nightmare'', #16, Dec. 1973 Source I sometimes wonder if I should put more time and care into my photoshop alterations of the various covers I post but then I say to myself, "fuck it, no one's paying me for this useless hobby" and that's when you get posts like this. It's good enough for tumblr and that's the social media equivalent of "who cares?"
