so Jedao One is like, casually cis but his gender is mostly Kel/Shuos

but I think Jaby actually has a pretty distinct actual binary man gender aside from his vague faction feelings

like, Jedao was fairly chill getting installed into whatever body, he was still gonna be a man, but the body is a tool and he isn't fussed about it as long as it can do what he needs it to

but Jaby is uncomfortable even in Jedao one's older. stronger, scarred body because it doesn't seem like his

Revenant also says that moths only have biological sex development when they meet in the void to mate because you want a 100% chance of a fertile pair when you are native to the EXTREMELY BIGNESS VAST VOID of space

so the most efficient use of resources is for the BIGGER moth of the two to go female, because she will have more resources to invest in eggs and ensure their survival

and for the smaller moth to go male

and Jaby, aside from his exact duplicate spare body, is the smallest voidmoth that has ever existed

some part of him has been eyeing all the other voidmoths in fleet and combined with Kujen making very sure he would be able to respond sexually in a human-enjoyable way
