I was half asleep and thinking about all the stories like She’s The Man and Mulan (1999) where a woman dresses up like a man in order to do something ManlyTM and how they all inevitably fall in love with the masculinity of it all while still being women (or not, I guess, fiction is flexible and gender is more so)

and I went “give me a man who chooses to dress as a woman instead of resorting to violence. Give me a man who, in finding femininity and softness, can find himself. Give me a man who chooses kindness and love over war and aggression, but the only way he can do so is finding solace in the feminine. Not because femininity is inherently softer, but because society has told him as such. Give me a man who, through trial and error, finds himself learning to love the traditional women’s tasks he’s been clumsily attempting. Give me a man who could never truly fit in with other men, and the women around him protect him and love him unconditionally. Give me a man who cannot stand for himself at first, and then rises stronger together with the people who took him in”

And I realized that “give me a man who dresses as a woman in order to avoid going to war” is just. Achilles. And I want that classically animated movie now. I don’t even care if it’s sanitized like the Disney Renaissance Mulan or Hercules, in fact I’d enjoy that. I want Achilles to choose kindness and love and beauty over the war he never wanted to fight. I want a lighthearted, playful version of Achilles where there’s a happy ending. I know it’s a tragedy, but so were a lot of things that got animated at the time (not even Disney, Anastasia and Quest for Camelot come to mind as well) and I think he and Patroclus can have a happily ever after, too

I also want it to be gay, but I think that goes without saying

The ‘man falls in love with woman pretending to be a man’ troupe is the opposite of that ‘I thought this was a beautiful butch but it turns out that’s just a twink’ meme

Beyond the Armor ⚔️

I really appreciate when Erza isn’t wearing her armor. It’s really refreshing to see. She’s so pretty and it really highlights her femininity, something she’s not very confident about at the start of the story. I also like how this cover included a sword. It’s her power, her magic, but also her strength as a character. She’s confident in her abilities to protect others. I really like the clash between the two concepts. And the fairy?! She’s truly Titania, the Queen of fairies!! I know this is short but there’s not much for me to say except that Erza is such a wonderful character that grows to love herself in terms of being a woman and not just a knight.
