time for Gender Studies with Armin

he might not get it. He is just. Very out of his depth re:this stuff.

yeah, that's why tyler's trying to keep it simple. he fully doesn't expect it to make sense to armin all at once

tyler's friends are like. 3 cis, 1 agender, 1 trans, 1 genderfluid and tyler who hasn't quite worked his out yet but enjoys GNC outfits

nobody is straight

Armin only just really learned about people not being straight until he came here

bless armin

Or rather, the concept of people not being straight is one I feel they more or less understand in their world. But it is very much deemed not normal and something to be hidden.

Mood Lydia, Solus would just shake his head at their pettiness.

Nobody reacts when Ymir talks about wanting to marry Krista because of her very over-the-top, almost joking manner. I feel the way that one perv reacted to finding out Armin was a dude is more representative of the societal view of homosexuality (telling Armin to take responsibility for turning him abnormal aka he got a boner from armin now he is abnormal)

admittedly, Armin has always been fairly decent on it cause to him it was a case of. Yes, that sure is aberrant behaviour. But also, he himself has been engaging in heresy since he was eight or so, so like. Fuck society on certain things.

but the whole lifestyle and it being a thing not to be hidden and accepted wasn't something he encountered until VR

and then he got a crush on a cute wizard and now he is bi

good job armin proud of you

he was a very cute british wizard, Armin was defenceless

mind you, i don't think he has ever told more than two people about it, but that is more an 'armin is super private about personal things' situation. He wouldn't have told people about any crushes he would've had on girls either

No one can blame him

do it

armin that's real fuckin cute

who wouldn't have a crush on this cute face? Fools that is who

(I am surprised people haven't called out Armin about his crush because whenever he talks about Newt it's like. the verbal equivalent of dotting every I with a heart)

I mean, that's so legit

also I'm sure Steven would at least note that crush, but he hasn't talked about him yet I think

he hasn't yet. It usually comes up in relation to his Lapras pod seeing as Newt is the one he inherited them from

OH NO

armin bby
