MY NAME IS GROOVY (HE/IT) AND I REALLY REALLY LIKE BRUGIO AND YOSHIKAGE KIRA. THAT'S THE MOST IMPORTANT STUFF
I write and seldom draw, I'm chronically ill and there is not one normal bone in my body. I have really bad executive functioning issues but I love asks and yapping about my favorite characters, ships, and general interests. Please talk to me about books and animals. I cannot stop talking. Ever!
I can get behind almost anything in terms of ships but please no lolisho here it bothers me
Imo fem bruno is still 179cm. Average height for comedic effect. If this was the case, he’d lean down to her level (to show respect).
Below is some speculation abt what if Bruno was a woman.
If Bruno was a woman, though I think her design wouldn’t change, external societal factors would certainly affect some aspects of her dynamic with Giorno, especially on his end.
To be clear, their actual actions and dynamic wouldn’t change, but the external societal implications of Bruno’s womanhood would be what puts a cloud of implications over what was the normal GW male Bruno and Giorno dynamic.
Giorno’s weird feelings around women would be very relevant. (I don’t consider him misogynistic in a modern alpha male incel sort of way. Besides cultural and time period factors, it's just a general unease/disinterest stemming from lack of attraction (demisexual) and Mother issues.)
Firstly, with canon Brugio, I think Giorno would recognize the unusual attachment and strong feelings, maybe during the canon timeline, maybe post-canon. But he may take some time to perceive it as romantic, both with him not having felt it before, and the fact Bruno is a man.
However, with female Bruno, it is the expected thing, with her being a woman. Even prematurely, if his feelings aren’t even romantic, or romantic yet. Gio may think “I have strong feeling for a a woman for the first time. This must be romantic, so that’s what it’s like.” She’s the first woman Giorno even likes.
Then he'll want to make her happy, maybee?? (just a thought, half baked) maybe not?? going through the generic motions of hetero courting (even if not expecting to date her), because he sees her as a girl now, and everything that surrounds that, even if irrelevant to their relationship. (not for long)
Or maybe he will always see Bruno as an ally first, and not go that direction, and their dynamic develops naturally?
Also… I have made it very clear I don’t see Bruno as a parental figure… but I think in a scenario where Bruno is female, it might be different. Not her actually being more maternal, but rather what Giorno’s subconscious ends up projecting onto her.
He was neglected by his maternal figure, not directly abused (still abuse ik) but he may still crave that affection. Bruno believes in him, supports him, finds him important, and there is that intensity between them. Giorno would feel both attachment and possible attraction, but the fact Bruno is a female may get his wires crossed too, and expect more than Bruno gives, craving it subconsciously.
I think female Bruno would be even less receptive to any romantic advancements. Male Bruno would only be disbelieving of it, having a very low opinion of himself. But as a woman, she might have been dealing with men for nearly a decade, already on guard. She sees any attention as ulterior motives, and something to be wary of, lacking any actual feelings.
It may actually upset her, that Giorno, someone she adores a lot, seems to be no different, reducing her to that, when he had treated her like a person initially. (If you’ve ever had a guy friend come onto you, you knowwwww). She thought he was different, and now he’s no different than the other men. Even if he’s young, and it may be innocent infatuation, he is reducing her to a woman.
(Comic coming soon!!! ACTUALLY!! Because it’s holiday I can work on it ALL DAY!!!)

Groovy's Totally Epic Summer Reading Assignment
uhmm. chose these books because they're some of my favorites and ones that i think would be nice to read during hot weather based on vibes i got while reading them. as in: i wouldn't read dostoevsky or kafka in the middle of summer because that's Wrong.
Breakfast of Champions by Kurt Vonnegut
TW: REFERENCES TO RACISM, SEXUAL VIOLENCE/ABUSE, CLASS EXPLOITATION. NOT INCREDIBLY GRAPHIC IN DESCRIPTIONS BUT BE WARNED
read my vonneguts read my vonneguts read my vonneguts read my vonneguts read my vonneguts read my vonneguts read my vonneguts oooh you wanna read my vonneguts sooooo bad you wanna read my vonneguts. read my vonneguts.
Lolita By Vladimir Nabokov
TW: SEXUAL ABUSE, GROOMING
I love this book and anyone who comes after me for this will be EXPLODED! under my regime. Everybody has heard of Lolita but until you've read it, you don't know Lolita!!!! Please read it!!!!! I talk so much about this book but it's for good reason!!! It might be overkill to also recommend Tampa by Alissa Nutting, but it's like a much more graphic version of Lolita from the perspective of a female abuser with her male victim(s) and also incredibly well written. the abuse infinity stones
Alas, Babylon by Pat Frank
One of the books that got me into reading when I was 11 or so? It's about nuclear fallout in Florida and really good from what I remember.
Gyo by Junji Ito (Manga)
This one isn't my favorite Junji Ito, but it's a bit shorter than his other full-length manga, and ocean themed!! Perfect for a day at the beach with the smell of rotting fish in your nostrils!!
Push by Sapphire (Inshallah I finish this one without having a panic attack)
TW: SEXUAL VIOLENCE/ABUSE, INCEST, RACISM
I actually haven't finished this one because I started it in January, had a panic attack about it, and had to shelf it until recently. It's a fairly short book but will actually kill you to death.
you never see yoshikage kira taking clothing or jewelry from his victims which is kinda interesting considering that he's big on trophies. in my really insane mind palace, i think he tries to take the hands of women with similar builds and skin tones without a ton of deviation as well as getting them his ideal jewelry rather than the ones the living person would've had on. on account of the mona lisa fantasy and micromanaging behaviors. he doesn't like to see individuality on his girlfriends because that hinders his control over his environment
HIIIII oh my god hi so i need some fubru or else i die. do you hear me. i will dieif i don't get fubru. oughhh. doctor said i need a fubru to cure my ailments
Inject this into your veins if it's not too late...
