[Image description: two photos of me, a white ginger person, at two different points in my life. The first is a photo of me as an 11 year old, wearing a white swim shirt and with a black mustsche drawn on my face. I am sitting against a log-cabin like building and am making a goofy face. The second is a recent picture of me at a pride event. I am wearing a black t-shirt with a trans pride flag on it and white text reading "defend trans lives," a Gilbert Baker pride flag as a cape, and have a pride flag stuck in my ponytail and pride heart stickers on my face. I am walking out of a free-standing door surrounded by rainbow pride flags and am grinning. End image description.]
today is my 10 year anniversary of coming out as trans (by email. to the only openly gay friend i has at the time)!! it's crazy to think that I've known I'm trans for almost half my life :O if little 12 year old Tam could see where I am now I think his mind would explode from how confident in myself and my gender I am (and from how many incredible queer people I know and love!!). If you're a newly out trans person, or youre questioning your gender, this is your sign that things DO get better and people will love and accept you for who you are no matter how weird and nonconforming your gender expression is <333 I'm so so grateful especially for my internet friend community, who've taught me so much about how to be trans in ways that work for me and also about the power of fagdyke solidarity. It's not called family for nothing!!! Here's to 10 more years of fagging it up and I'm sure 32 year old Tam will have reached gender levels that I can't even comprehend right now 🏳️⚧️🏳️⚧️🏳️⚧️

I think my favorite way to interpret and think about (and therefore write about) the dynamic between Tim Drake and Tam Fox in Red Robin is that no matter if they're romantically involved, they're constantly tuned to the same attitude frequency. These two would be in some important meeting with some important person and making the same judgmental bitch face at everyone in the room.

I absolutely adore this photo, Kid's expression is the absolute perfect mix of apprehension, sadness, and hope. There's something so so impossibly perfect about how Kid was the one to turn Mayu against Tam, so fixed in her black and white thinking that she couldn't accept someone could disagree with them without Being Bad. Being turned against Mayu and becoming a badguy herself - and then saved in turn by Tam when her friends decided she's just too fundamentally likable and good to hang out with them anymore.

I thought about what if the Harps were more creature-like? A bit like the wyrms or the bog crones. Less woman with wings and booba and more birb.
Here's my artistic rendition

Xenk alone in a crowd who won’t look down and perhaps that is a fortune, for if they saw the mark on his head, violence would met his already bruised bones…
