so over the past couple months ive been solidly finding more and more evidence that kirito is in fact a trans girl, but yesterday i learned i was limiting myself in my search for evidence
because so far ive been looking at the light novels, the anime, and the mainline pc games
but not *the fucking mobile games*
which um... *what the fuck?!*
stuff like this:
or the fact these are all just official art for a real game from 2016
like *what*
^pet the girlthing
like im sorry there's a limit to how blatant you can go before it's just canon
"depressed lonely 14-year old with the social grace of a block of concrete and the worst coping mechanisms despite trying her best, and consistently insecure about her appearance. other characters repeatedly bring up "he" doesn't really feel like other guys when interacting with her. and then we get to the phantom bullet arc where in the span of 2 days we see her express more emotions than most of the past 2 seasons combined, *coincidentally* in the *one* game where her avatar unambiguously looks like a girl (which she gets used to hilariously fast and seems to enjoy to an extent that seems frankly inexplicable if she were a cis "guy")" - @approximateknowledge

she basically says it
(forcefem that dense fucking egg)
("problem solving corner" indeed!)
are these chibi shorts canon in the true sense? no. but they are in character
and there's a lot more of this where that came from too!
(and like, kiri's denial is very much purely performative considering all the fun she's been having with that avatar for the entire season, as sinon rightly points out. i love sinon she takes no bullshit)
I am so excited for the holidays…but not because of holiday shenanigans. rather, because this is the time when the fandom comes back to tumblr. people are off from school. people are off from work. people seek solace from the emotions, sometimes hard ones, that come from holidays and end up here once more. I am excited to have the fandom all back together again. I am excited for the memes, the fics, the art. I am excited for the fandom community to be alive once more! I love you fuckers so dearly.
