I’ve been thinking about the way Zenos interacts with people of different genders. this led me to believing that ingame Zenos/WoL interactions are geared more towards male characters & male players. (at least in Stormblood)
with WoL, it’s a dick measuring contest, all smugness & aggression a la “Come at me, bro!”, p much how a guy would treat his rival.
then look at how he treats Yotsuyu & Fordola. I personally don’t think he would’ve been quite as merciful towards them after their failures if they’d been guys.
I don’t know how/if his behavior changed in EW, haven’t gotten there yet.
Zenos would’ve been a total momma’s boy if she’d lived, mark my words.
