I have no idea how the fandom will react to such a headcanon, but seeing as the kingkiller chronicles hasn’t really shy-ed away from lgbt representation.
Is there any way Bast and Denna is the same person? Bast himself I believe is bisexual and in TNRBD did essentially say trans rights(yes, the cat… shut up)
Idk, i feel like TNOTW doesn’t debunk it, kvothe and bast clearly has some past and we don’t know much of fae lore within this world yet, maybe it was some reborn situation, or he genuinely just is transgender. Could explain why in the end of TNOTW he says “I want my Reshi back.” I also just think they kinda act similar if that makes sense?
Kvothe himself have only really been into Denna and I’ve seen theory’s that he’s actually just a closeted/doesn’t know yet gay dude..
Then theres also how fast Bast was to call her ugly. I know kvothe did say something along the lines of “you didn’t meet” before going “oh” after bast reminded him but that could genuinely just be him forgetting they are the same.
Food for thought I guess and I’m curious what others might think of it
Again, I have no idea if the fandom is too lgbt friendly, especially in today’s world.. but I haven’t seen it float around so
