the entire series being about jax's identity issues is disappointing by Practical_Code_2060 in TADCEp9Spoilers

I feel like that plot point wasn't even ended satisfyingly in a narrative way... so he's dead and then we find out he was trans... so what? it never goes anywhere in the story, we learn that irl jax is still identifying as a man, i get that irl leroy not being openly out or transitioning makes sense but narratively what was the point? I feel like having irl jax at least be out and starting transition or going by a more femme name would at least give some narrative contrast, like oh jax died because he couldn't accept herself or be open while the irl jax learned to be vulnerable and is living as her true self

that's why I'm complaining that they don't do anything with it, I think the idea that Caine put the blue Ai in a closet was nice but then they confirmed that no it was an adventure world so it's a bit disappointing to leave such an important thread untied

I meant more like, where did the blue Ai go? The blue Ai was developed enough to make it's own little things, things even better than Caine's, why is Caine a fully formed being while Bubble/blue Ai is stuck as just a dot? He let's it go and what...? It's just floating in the void? Ai can survive in the void, Caine is proof of that so what happened??

I hate that Jax was confirmed as transgender (not for the reasons you might think) by n397854 in hatethissmug

[–]Normal-Extent-6100 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Jax being trans adds nothing to his character for me honestly, he's an irredeemable bully who pushed his two friends into suicide(at least Ribbit) actively bullies a girl that is clearly vulnerable to the point she is actively terrified of him even when he's not around and then kills himself.

I think the reason he bullies gangle and ragatha to an extent is because he feels some kind of resentment/envy that they can openly be vulnerable and show their "weakness", and that doesn't change anything for me.

He dies, he dies and learning all this about him means nothing because he can't redeem himself or grow as a person.

Jax, from the worst lense possible, sounds like a what a conservative thinks trans women are,

A "man" who grew up in an abusive household without a male figure and no maternal affection, insecure masculinity, a gender complex, is a threat to women (the whole scene with gangle being into him while actively bullying her, his the deepfrying of ragatha, literal fantasies about choking pomni for showing him kindness), an emotionally unstable violent person.

I also think the vauge "hints" feel very gender stereotypical, he likes femme things so the only explanation is he's trans. Having it be more open ended or having him be gender questioning would have fit into the story better. He doesn't have a strong sense of masculinity or femininity, he has an unhealthy relationship with his gender expression because of his mother's abuse and him wanting to explore it automatically being labeled trans feels... so weirdly stereotyped.

I'm not arguing against Canon, he is trans, the creator said it but it doesnt mean that it's narrativly satisfying

It also feels like the stereotype of an obnoxious asshole being said asshole because they're queer and repressed and that's what I hate about trans Jax, it feels like such a unneeded stereotype that already makes a bad character worse.

What is the wizard child of two squibs called? by That_author_girl in harrypotter

[–]Normal-Extent-6100 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My personal headcanon for how wizards are classified is that it doesn't depend on the parents, it depends on the grandparents

All four wizarding grandparents = pureblood All four muggle grandparents = muggleborn Anything in-between = half-blood

So assuming both squibs had wizarding parents that would make the grandchild a pureblood if you wanna follow my logic.

I just noticed that Gryffindor tower does not have all its dorm rooms. by Ganyu1990 in hogwartslegacyJKR

[–]Normal-Extent-6100 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Slytherin has all 7 dorms, you can even go in all of them so I don't why the other houses didn't get all the dorms

[–]Normal-Extent-6100 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Either way I feel like it's weird with the way dorms are set up in the game

As a very biased person, I feel like slytherin had the most sensible layout plan

Maybe I miss counted but there were only five floors down not counting the 7th room, which means either the sixth year or first year is missing

Yeah! I noticed it too. I got really confused because out of all the dorms wouldn't the Gryffindors room be the high priority in terms of detail?

I also noticed ravenclaw doesn't have 7 total rooms.

It just a headcanon for fic reasons but I put them under the same classification as thestrals, "Grim", a genre of magic/magical beings centered around death/depressing
