Here’s how I think Punch Out would react to you coming out as gay/lesbian!
TW for general homophobia
Little Mac: 👍
Y/N: “Does that mean you’re cool with my sexuality?”
Little Mac: *nods*
~~~
Glass Joe: “Oh, don’t worry. I know.”
Y/N: “What?”
Glass Joe: “Euh, quoi?”
Y/N: “I-I haven’t told anyone I was *insert sexuality here*. How did you know?”
Glass Joe: “Seriously? Look at yourself!” He looks you up and down “Look at your clothes, look at your ‘air, look at ze way you stand! No straight person looks like zat. But don’t be scared, I support you.” He smiles warmly
~~~
Von Kaiser: “Okay?”
Y/N: “... You don’t care that I’m *insert sexuality here*?”
Von Kaiser: “Nien? Your preference does not affect me, so vhy should I care?”
~~~
*if you come out as gay*
Disco Kid: *gasp* “Gorl…” he grabs your hands “Me too!”
*if you come out as lesbian*
Disco Kid: “Okay, go gorl. Good on you!”
~~~
King Hippo: He gives you some affirmative rumbles and nods.
~~~
Piston Honda: “I see. I might not understand, but I still respect you.”
Y/N: You start laughing too, but you facepalm. “Seriously?”
Bear Hugger: “I couldn’t resist. But seriously, thanks for tellin’ me.”
~~~
Great Tiger: *tilts his head* “... And?”
Y/N: “That’s it. I’m a lesbian/gay.”
Great Tiger: “That’s it?” *he shrugs with an unamused expression* “Okay then.”
~~~
Don Flamenco: “Hm, it’s about time you told someone…” (He says that in a mildly disappointed tone if you’re a lesbian, but in a slightly interested tone if you’re gay.)
~~~
*if you come out as gay*
Aran Ryan: “... So, yer not inta girls, like?”
Y/N: “Yes… That’s how being gay works.”
Aran Ryan: He stares at you with a mildly confused expression, before smirking. “Are ye seein’ anybody?”
*if you come out as lesbian*
Aran Ryan: “I knew ye were a dyke! Donnie owes me a fiver!”
Y/N: D:
Aran Ryan: he chuckles and ruffles your hair “I’m jus’ messin’ with ya, lezz- I mean, lassie!”
~~~
Soda Popinski: “What?”
Y/N: “You know, I’m attracted
Soda Popinski: “Ah, okay!”
Y/N: “... Sooo,
Soda Popinski: *shrugs* “Nyet, I do not mind that you a gay/les-bean.”
~~~
Bald Bull: “I don’t care.”
~~~
*if you come out as gay*
Super Macho Man: “Ew, you don't like, have a crush on me, right?”
Y/N: “No?”
Super Macho Man: *dramatically and angrily inhales* “WHY NOT?!”
*if you come out as lesbian*
Super Macho Man: “That’s hot.” (You can’t tell if he’s being supportive or just sexualising you)
~~~
Mr Sandman: “Why are ya tellin’ me this?”
Y/N: “Because I trust you.”
Mr Sandman: “... Well, I appreciate you trustin’ me enough to tell me this. I don’t see ya any differently now.”
~~~
Doc Louis: “You are? I knew it! You always seemed a lil fruity, hahahaha! Nah, but seriously, kid, thanks for telling me. I’ll always support ya, no matter what.” he pats your back
