i LOVE your trans mirage so much. i was wondering do you hc any of the other legends as trans? and would u ever draw them?
THANK YOUUU AAAAND ALSO YES i’ll quickly list off my hcs!! Images Attached where I have some already and ive included some other thoughts on them !!
Obviously, first off: bloodhound is canonically trans! for once, I don’t need a hc for this at all?? its just real and that feels super wild!! I love them! oh and personally, fwiw, I do not feel comfortable at all speculating on what gender they were assigned at birth so in the future when i draw more of them and maybe draw an unmasked design this might be something to keep in mind.
Tumblr media
As noted, mirage/elliott is one of my faves, i have a few different hcs which I went over on my main acc! I’ll draw him more for sure lol
Gibraltar! I pretty much think that he’s the type of trans guy who knew pretty much as soon as he had object permanence, and that he began his transition pretty early. I don’t think he’s exactly stealth but it’s like personal information & he finds it doesn’t come up a whole lot. People see the trans flag badge on his jacket in a photoshoot and all the comments r like “wow gibraltar’s such a cool ally” and hes reading it later like “Yeah i sure hope so,”
Tumblr media
Ajay Che/Lifeline - Binary transwoman. This ones kinda shallow I just think its cute and valid (+ her mostly pink/blue/white colorscheme 👀). I think she and Octane would have transitioned around the same time together T__T “old friends” indeed. but this is the only art i have of her at all rn LMAO
Tumblr media
On that note, Octane/Octavio! sorta-binary-leaning transmasc guy. Chaotic trans energies, hypes up everyone if they’re ever feeling bad about Gender. hes Very Out, but respects other trans folks preferences. Dunks on transphobes Online. I can’t draw him at all but ill keep trying haha
now I’ve said it before, but pretty much any and all trans hcs are valid and there can be any reason or no reason at all, and any backstory/more hcs for it or no backstory at all.
I personally draw characters with scars or other flags if I want to signal that they’re trans to other trans folk (like w/ mirage), but may sometimes leave them not apparent. Sometimes this is because I have a hc for a type of surgery thats noninvasive, or I dont feel comfortable showing it/discussing with cis folk (sorry :/). It’s safe enough to assume that any of the above are trans when I draw them, regardless of how much they pass as cis. Sorry for the unfun disclaimer gjkdfghkjdfhgd
Also! I’ll draw every cast member of Apex at some point!! I actually have a con coming up so I’ll be trying to draw as many of them as possible for merch stuff,,.. While I’m doing that, side doodles will be unavoidable so I’ll answer the second part of this ask with “yes”

g’day folks! It has just occurred to me that I never really spoke about the incredible yolly content I was blessed with in london this may and that is, quite frankly, a crime, so here we freaking GO
ok so I never fully explained my semi-relationship with sinead and jordan (who were playing yann and polly at the time) and I probably never will to both a) respect them and b) not embarrass myself by over exaggerating it but just know that I’ve spoken to them both several times, they’re lovely lovely people who were both fully aware of the yolly ship and just so hilarious about it all and such good sports and SPOILT THE FUCK OUT OF ME with content, so without further ado:
A List of Yolly Moments from May 2019
-yann and polly walk across stage as act 4 scene 14 begins and as they’re laughing together yann wraps his arm around her shoulder and tugs her into a hug as they walk (I very nearly screamed and unfortunately couldnt focus the rest of the show, a fact jordan and sinead found most amusing)
-spoke to sinead after the show and she said that jordan often did this sort of thing to mess with her???? hello??? where was I??? (exact words were “he’s always fannying around, sometimes he kisses me, etc...” EXCUSE ME HE WHAT????)
-jordan said he does it bc he “loves her” and was “sure they’ll be more yolly moments” to look forward to and BOY was he right
-bammy set out to murder me after that and I am forever grateful
-the night he knew I was in consisted of him wrapping an arm around her, standing by her, looking at her, talking to her ANY TIME HE WAS ON STAGE which, as an avid fan of both yolly and jordan and sinead, I can confirm was NOT NORMAL
-pretty sure in the EGM scene that sinead’s character got into an argument w someone and jordan wrapped his arm around her and started arguing too, part of me swears he called her his wife, either way it was incredibly amusing
-yann annoying the everloving fuck out of polly in the wand dance, teasing her and getting up in her space, playfully rubbing in that his spell worked before hers etc
-should mention that at one point karl wrapped his arm around polly (craig (who plays karl) ships karl and polly which is HILARIOUS to me) and she was so quick to shove him off...no such complaints when yann did it tho...I see you..
-so after wand dance polly always goes “oh poor little potter!” and craig goes “he’s so embarrassing” and that’s about it as everyone giggles and mocks albus but THIS TIME after those two comments, as they’re leaving the stage yann turned back and YELLED “POLLY!!!” and I DIED pretty sure my exact reaction was to squeak and hiss “FUCKING HELL” to my friend beside me, followed by “HES TRYING TO KILL ME” and I was not exaggerating in the slightest
-so anyway they’re in love we know this, I have never seen a boy more enraptured, no matter what they were doing on stage he was watching her
-IN THE TWT SCENE HE WAS HANGING OFF HER SHOULDERS AND HIDING HIS FACE IN HER NECK AND SCARF IT WAS SO CUTE
-so polly is exasperated with him in the funniest way that so clearly tells you that they’re best friends and yet she’s simultaneously hopelessly endeared and idk what to tell you if you don’t ship yolly bc it’s there!! it’s happening!
-I tweeted a bit about Yann’s handsy-ness and sinead openly stalks my acc on the odd occasion and tweeted jordan “don’t touch what you can’t afford x” which is SO HER POLLY I couldn’t believe it I love them
-the thing about jordan and sinead is that they’re best friends off stage and my god it shows in their onstage chemistry and I am so thrilled I got to see them
-continued to be husband and wife in the second EGM, incredible content and teamwork to push the staircases off stage, we stan a hardworking couple
-(unrelated but once when jordan was on as scorpius, during the godric’s hollow scene after the malfoy hug I saw sinead in the wings give him a little wave and I just-)
-at the end of this show they had their little walk and hug moment that filled my heart with love and I can’t thank them enough for going so above and beyond for me that day :’) and jordan agreed to pay for my funeral so high fives all round x
-this hug became a Thing for the last few shoes before cast change, and on the day itself I swear they just wrapped both their arms around eachother as they did the cross... :’( I’m emo and I miss them
-I will never be able to thank jordan and sinead enough for their kindness, their good sportsmanship about the whole thing, for playing along, for making me feel like a friend and for just embracing me as I am and, of course, for being the first to make yolly canon, truly the GOAT
-honourable mention goes to jordan the first time I met him for bringing up yolly and going “yesssss this is the ship!” he had my heart from the moment he was wheeled on stage and he’s had it every day since
-cast four brought us emma may and luke who are SUPERB and apparently decided to make yolly canon of their own accord, bc while I was still mourning my OG yolly legends for that first show I saw with them they ended the show crossing the stage with a HAND HOLD!!! A CANON HAND HOLD
-this was a lot to process and tbh I still cant believe that happens canonly every night
-they have such a fun relationship on stage, polly protects him as they walk past draco and they have a little gossip
-I’ve seen emma’s polly be incredibly excited when Yann’s spell works in the wand dance, I’ve also seen her throw a fit and ask why his worked and her’s didnt bc it’s “not fair” and I love both responses
-their characters also hold hands at the end of the pumpkin placing scene and they literally skip offstage holding hands?? pure
-polly is constantly trying to get yann’s attention during the DADA scene and it’s beautiful
-in many ways their yolly feels a lot younger than jordan and sineads and they seem to play a lot more games when it comes to their relationship, like real schoolgirl crushes on eachother
-I have a friend (@karl-jenkins) who described it as polly actively pursuing yann and yann playing hard to get until craig dies and they realise life is too short to not be together and that feels really fitting for them
-jordan and sinead were more two best friends who were as close as friends can be, knowing how to push each others buttons and tease eachother with all the true love and fondness bubbling just beneath the surface ready to spill and I am irrevocably in love with both of their versions
-stage door mentions of yolly include leah mentioning that she’d heard a lot about them recently and agreeing that polly doesnt NEED yann (bc shes a boss ass bitch on her own) but that they’d be a good couple so we stan her
-me telling ryan my yann’s backstory after he LIED to me about having one for him kssjsjs and jon overhearing and being more into it than any other person I’ve encountered 
-jon, out of absolutely nowhere, saying “tell me about your yann and polly fanfictions!!!” I mean...what?
-in summary, yolly is canon and the yolly shippers stay winning
-thank you for your time and please let me know if there’s any yolly moments that you have seen yourself!!!!
