I just saw another post on here that had these, but they also mentioned “passing” and to me, passing is a thing that doesn’t exist. You may want to look more femme or more masc, but being transgender doesn’t mean you suddenly don’t look your authentic self, the self you’ve discovered, the self you feel comfortable in. Who decides what is passing and what is not? In my experience as a non-binary individual, (and I can only speak on my experience), the idea of passing is a toxic box that transgender and gender non-conforming people are put into on top of dysphoria they may already feel. So I tried to make some more pleasant and uplifting ones for those who need a smile today. I hope it works. Because I see you, I am your ally, I am one of you, I think you’re doing fucking amazing sweetie. 🏳️‍⚧️

there  was  a  lot  to  admire  about  philippe  de  lorraine.    the  way  he  seemed  to    COMMAND  A  ROOM    being  among  them.    it  was  the  first  thing  alec  had  noticed  about  him.      all  eyes  had  gravitated  towards  the  blonde  designer  moments  before  they  first  met,    his  own  gaze  following  suit  and  unable  to  waver.    at  the  time  it  seemed  a  miracle  that  alec  was  the  face  philippe  chose  amongst  a  crowd.    they  haven’t  known  each  other  long  and  yet  he  cannot  already  imagine  life  without  the  other  in  it,  in  any  capacity.    friend,  lover,  perhaps  more.    their  relationship  still  evolving  with  alec  eager  to  see  where  it  will  end  up.    

the  party  of  one  of  philippe’s  designer  friends  continues  inside,  whilst  they  have  made  their  way  out  onto  a  balcony.    conversation  between  them  far  easier  than  it  was  with  anyone  else.    words  fall  like  breath.    if  the  other  requested  that  alec  lay  his  soul  bare,  he  would.    it  was  both  exhilarating  and  terrifying  knowing  what  power  philippe  was  gaining  over  him.    things  were  light  and  flirtatious  for  awhile.    their  fingertips  ending  up  intertwined  between  sentences.    then  the  conversation  took  a  turn  towards  something  more  serious.    FAMILY  &  PERSONAL  HISTORY    [  ...  ]      the  lightwoods  were  anything  but  perfect,    but  alec  knew  his  family  would  always  have  his  back.    even  through  the  rough  patches.  when  asked  about  his  family,  it  didn’t  seem  like  philippe  shared  that  same  sentiment.  

the  question  already  lingers  in  the  air.  it  was  too  late  to  take  it  back,  but  he  wishes  that  he  could.  maybe  this  was  all  too  soon?  perhaps  they  should  keep  things  between  them  light.  maybe  this  would  never  go  BEYOND  FLIRTATION,  even  if  he  wanted  it  to.  alec  is  patient  and  when  answer  is  given,  doesn’t  even  think  to  push  for  elaboration.  it  wasn’t  his  business,  right?    “  i’m  sorry  i  shouldn’t  have  asked.  “      the  hand  that  doesn’t  continue  to  hold  onto  philippe’s  runs  through  raven  locks,  shaking  his  hair  nervously.        “    that  is  one  of  the  things  that  i  admire  and  noticed  about  you.    your  strength.    not  everyone  has  it.    and,  you  know,  i  like  who  you  are.  who  you’ve  made  yourself  to  be.    a  lot.  “

she    hadn’t    fully    thought    it    through.    she    had    acted    on    impulse    to    try    to    keep    the    people    she    loved    safe    without    any    thought    to    the    danger    that    could    be    waiting    for    her.    the    gemini    froze    at    his    tone.     ❝    i    didn’t    want    anyone    else    to    get    hurt.    it    could    have    hurt    other    people.      ❞      eyes    stare    at    his    arm    attempting    to    ignore    the    guilt    that    was    growing.    she    thought    that    she    could    deal    with    it    on    her    own.     ❝    my    dad    wouldn’t    notice    unless    someone    told    him.      ❞      he    was    always    distracted    and    it    seemed    like    most    of    the    time    far    to    busy    to    even    know    what    was    going    on    with    her    or    her    twin.     ❝    i    don’t    know.      ❞      a    lie,    one    that    was    quiet    obvious    to    anyone    who    knew    her.    the    monster    had    said    someone    right    as    she    was    about    to    cast    her    spell.    it    had    been    about    her    family,    and    she    just    like    that    she    had    stopped    saying    the    spell.    if    it    weren’t    for    the    teacher    she    would    have    gotten    a    serious    injury.

her  soul  is  like  a  mirror  of  himself  .          they  both  possess  a  self  sacrificing  nature,    putting  the  needs  of  others  before  themselves  every  time.        THIS  WAS  BOTH  A  CURSE  &  A  BLESSING.      a  sigh  falls  from  his  lips.      “  look,    you  can  handle  yourself.    i  have  no  doubts  about  that.  i’m  not  surprised  you  got  in  as  many  hits  as  you  did,    but  you  shouldn’t  have  taken  this  on  all      BY  YOURSELF  .        even  i  try  to  never  face  monsters  or  demons  without  a  team.      “        his  own  gaze  looks  to  the  wound  that  begins  to  close,    thinking  of  jace.    his  parabatai  would  feel  the  phantom  wound  and  wonder  what  trouble  alec  has  gotten  into.    there  were  several  times  when  he  wondered  the  same  the  other  way  around.    it  wouldn’t  be  long  before  his  phone  would  start  buzzing,  the  caller  id  reading  :    JACE  HERONDALE.      the  separation  hadn’t  been  easy  on  either,  but  this  is  where  alec  needed  and  wanted  to  be.        “  i  doubt  that’s  true.  “    expression  softens  and  eyebrows  unfurrow  when  he  hears  of  her  opinion  on  her  father.    “    he  cares  about  you.      YOU  &  LIZZIE.    he  would  be  devastated  if  something  happened  to  you.  “    this  was  something  also  relatable.    not  knowing  if  a  parent  cared  more  about  their  work  or  their  children.    he’s  questioned  both  of  his  parent’s  love  in  that  way  before.    mouth  pulls  in  a  frown,  a  pit  growing  in  the  bottom  of  his  stomach.  he  has  a  suspicion  she’s  not  telling  the  entire  truth  but  pushing  the  matter  seemed  pointless.    “      very  well  ...    don’t  tell  me.      let’s  get  out  of  here  and  get  you  cleaned  up.  i  need  to  check  if  you  might  have  gotten  any  injuries  as  well.  are  you  feeling  alright?  “

jeremy   gilbert    , 

A faint crease appears between Jeremy’s eyebrows at the reaction he gets from the other male, but even he has to admit that it’s sort of endearing in a great way, the flush spreading over the shadowhunter’s cheeks. “You wouldn’t know?” he hums, head cocking to the side a touch as he takes a small step closer, hum forming in the back of his throat as he does. “I mean- I don’t think I’ve ever met someone who just didn’t know. Maybe some who didn’t have a preference, but none that didn’t… know.” Though, he supposes that he shouldn’t really be surprised, considering how flushed Alec had gotten at just the mere mention of sex. He knows that he shouldn’t tease, but there’s a large part of him that can’t resist the temptation, his eyes flicking over the other’s face as he speaks next. “If you ever want to figure it out, I’m always around. I have, what the kids call, Big Bottom Energy, so I can really only offer the opportunity to rule out being a top or decide you like it, but… Better than nothing.” His grin grows wider as he speaks, straightening up just a touch before he’s shrugging his shoulders. “Just a thought. No pressure.”

the  atmosphere  seems  to  burn  ten  degrees  hotter  as  the  conversation  continues  down  its  suggestive  route.    this  gets  any  worse  and  he  might  just  pass  out  from  overheating.    it  wasn’t  like  alec  never  thought  about  sex  or  made  a  vow  for  celibacy.  it’s  just  he’s  never  really  talked  about  it  in  great  lengths  with  anyone.  there  were  always  more  pressing  matters  and  he  could  not  have  been  entirely  truthful  about  what  he  wanted  with  anyone  prior  to  declaring  his  sexual  identity  to  everyone.    arms  cross  against  his  chest,  creating    AN  UNCONCIOUS  BARRIER  as  jeremy  steps  forward  with  teasing  statements  let  loose  on  his  tongue.    that  is  expected.     perhaps  he  even  invited  it  with  his  question.      

“    ok,  fine.    i  might  have  ...    a  suspicion.  “        again,  it  was  just  never  something  said  out  loud.   blue    hues    travel    towards    other’s    lips,   beginning    to    get    lost    in    the    way    that    they    form    words    instead    of    the    words    that    spill    out    of    them.     muscles    tense    in    his    arms    for    a    moment   when   he   thinks   that   perhaps   jeremy   had   misspoke.     eyes   flick   back   up   to   meet   his,     looking   for    REGRET   OR   MOCKERY.      neither    were   apparent   within   the   hunter’s   gaze.    that    puts   the    shadowhunter    more    at   ease   and   gives   him   a   boost   of   confidence.     “  so,   you’re   offering   yourself   up   for   me   to   experiment   on   and   figure   this   out? “     arms   uncross,    a   small   teasing   smirk   appearing   on   his   lips.     “  how   kind   of   you. “ 

 the    heat    he    had    been    feeling    doesn’t    disappear ,     but    it’s    less    now    from    embarrassment.    “  i   do. “     bottom   lip   is   taken   between   top   teeth,     “    i   do   want   to   figure   it   out,   with   you.  “       he   reaches   forward   and   hooks   a   tentative   finger   into   one   of   jeremy’s   belt   loops,    slowly   guiding   the   hunter   so   that   the   space   between   them   becomes   minimal.    head   is   tilted   downward   slightly,    his   lips   hovering   over   the   other’s   but   not   fully   connecting   just   yet,    simply   brushing   against   them.    “  mmm...   but   don’t   you   have   a   class   right   now,    mr.   gilbert?    we’ll   have   to   wait   until   later.  “
