I'm already deyaoifying newmann by headcanoning them as queerplatonic but you know what else. I'm making them t4t in a transfem hermann way. I think she's in the closet
Nobody has ever tboy swagged as hard as Newt obviously. But what's more I think that miserable german should be a woman. There's like a subtle degree of cuntenserven happening I smell a repressed femininity. Deep deep deep in the closet. She didn't even tell Newt until they drifted & he was literally in her head & like, saw that
Also this was very much in the middle of Everything Else Going On so there's this period of time that's like. Well Hermann's a girl but there are kaiju happening so we're gonna put a pin in that. We can unpack all of that (Hermann's Problems) later
So later Newt's like . So gently like Hey........ are you okay ? & she's just standing there like Ueh . Ehm
[ID: a reply from @hal-o-ween that reads, "Newt being very out and Hermann being so incredibly closeted that the closet is basically a nuclear fallout bunker would add a certain something to the animosity between them. A very tasty something." /end ID]
Right like oogh. Uuogh. Especially because I headcanon Newt as being like already very medically transitioned and everything. Watching him walk around with his scars and tattoos not hating himself & being like (through gritted teeth) I can't do that though. That's Not For Me. <- doesn't have to live like this
Newton your gender euphoria is getting on MYYYY side of the laboratory .
And the thing is there are very real reasons why transmascs tend to come out and transition younger than transfems (transmisogyny) but Hermann still doesn't have to live like this. My end goal here is Don't Die Wondering
