@daybreakthing Sorry if the use of both doesn't make sense/goes against your idea. I dunno, I thought it fit his character
I have a treat for all my fronds out there! This is what I like to call my
IkePri LGBT+
It is, of course, pride month, and the month I like to turn everyone a little (read: a lot) gay. So, once again, of course, I couldn't leave my favorite blorbos out of it. I went through the Ikemen Prince line up and put labels on characters that I felt were most in line with the headcanons I have of them.
Yes, canonically, MC (female) ends up with each one of these guys, and canonically they all get to banging, but this is just a fun little thought experiment in a form of a pride parade. In other words: I don't really care what's canon. This is my world.
I split this up into three parts. This is part one. You can find part two and part three also on my blog once I post it, and will update both my pinned list and each original post with additional links. It just may be a few days.
Also, if anyone wants to do something similar, go for it! I love to see some colorful headcanons for these characters. It's a fun idea to share.
First up, Jin Grandet the greatest ally you'll ever meet.
I know it's a little bit of a cop-out to not put Jin into any LGBT+ category, but he really didn't fit in anything in my head. He would be incredibly supportive of everyone finding happiness however they do so, his just happens to be in the bosom of a woman and he knows who he is in that regard.
You see, he's a man who likes women and that's pretty much it. I don't think there was ever a time he wondered if men were his thing, I think he has known his whole life, and he is so very cis about it all, too.
Personally, I kind of envy that. I knew I was different when I was young, but there weren't words to describe what it was that was different with me. I didn't understand that there were others like me, and I didn't even know how to explain who I was or who I liked because my family was so heteronormative, and cisnormative. So, good on you, Jin. Keep chasing tail. You're an icon to straight men everywhere. Haha.
Second up is the second born, Chevalier Michel. My aromantic king.
He has a few alphabets he could fit into, but aromanticism is something close and dear to my heart, so I had to choose it. You see, aromantic people don't feel romantic attraction the way others do, usually little to none. They still have feelings and still love, it's just different. And that's okay! Partnering and relationships don't have to be a one size fits all, they're all unique!
I've got a confession to make, I'm a bit protective over firmly fitting Chev in aromantic because someone in the fandom disagreed with me on this. Sounds petty, right? Well, it was the way it happened. I said I think he's aromantic, and they said, "I just think no one has wooed him in a way for him to feel love." And I was just flabbergasted. First, because love and romance aren't the same thing, so conflating them only sets up a slew of problems. But also because this gave me war flashbacks to every queer friend and person I've ever known being told they just haven't been fucked right (ace), or had the right dick (lesbian), or even met the right person to feel romantic feelings for-- Do you understand? Do you see why I'm so foot down about this?
Okay, so, with that out of the way. Chevalier finds romance and romantic gestures to be difficult to comprehend. He has always said he doesn't understand or feel romance, so he thought he didn't love. Event and event again, other people are reminding Chev how to show MC he loves her through romantic gestures, and he goes about them as if he's following a rulebook. Thank god he has read every romance novel that ever existed.
If you haven't figured it out, third up will be Clavis Lelouch! Yes, I'm going in order of birth. Clavis can be my pansexual partner because I have thoughts that are certainly headcanon, but I'm sure they would happen if given the chance.
There is a lot of discussion on the difference between bisexual and pansexual, and for a lot of people they're interchangable. Personally, I think it really just depends on when you were born and what lingo you learned, but there is a difference in the way they are described according to every wiki about pride flags I've read. The difference is that bisexual is attracted (sexually) to two genders, bi = 2. Pansexual is attracted to men, women, and nonbinary genders (represented in yellow). I suppose you could say that gender presentation doesn't matter to a pansexual.
Is that actually the way it is? Hopefully. I wouldn't want to be spreading misinformation. But for the most part, I'm clueless on this. I have been calling myself bi since the word showed up back in the nineties, and pansexual wasn't a thing during my formative years. Pansexual came about, and I thought, "Well, I like men and women, and I'm bisexual, and that's what that means, so why change?" I don't like change. But I digress.
Clavis is in love with MC. I'm sure if MC revealed themselves to be nonbinary or a trans man that Clavis would love them regardless. I think that Clavis could have fallen for another, any gender, if they had shown the same resolve MC had. And in my head stories, I think Clavis would be some other gentleman's pretty princess-- but that character hasn't been fleshed out enough to start telling stories about them.
Last for this group is Leon Dompteur! Finally! I get to drop the demiromantic flag!
Demiromantic is often under the a-spec umbrella because people who are demiromantic tend to only become romantically attracted to someone after they have formed an emotional bond with them. You could say that they are like aromantic people in that they don't feel romantic attraction like others do, but they do feel romantic attraction once they get close enough to someone. That's the real difference between aromantic and demiromantic people.
Leon doesn't seem like the type that has been completely absent of romantic relationships, even if they were less serious courting and not the same feelings he has for MC. He's also not completely foreign to the idea of romance, and is quite the romantic in practically every event after his route, and his route was one of the first! It's because of these reasons that I believe Leon is demiromantic.
Thank you for reading this far. I had fun with this group and will get the others out as soon as possible. I already mocked up their flags, I just have to have the energy to sit and type it all out. I'm not putting the normal tag list together, so, sorry if you were expecting to get tagged, but this isn't really a fanfic? I didn't feel it was fair?
