I've been dealing with a lot of transphobia, not towards me but others, and have been misgendered and deadnamed a lot. Then today I saw that 'transphobic, gross anon.'
So here's some trans! Ciel headcanons! 😊
He's horrible when it comes to binder breaks and always wears them over the maximum amount of hours. Sebastian is constantly reminding him to take breaks. Even when Sebastian is at work, during lunch he'll be sure to text Ciel his reminder.
Ciel isn't afraid of needles, he's had his ears pierced, blood drawn many of times before, even has a couple tattoos. But something about sticking himself with one makes his skin crawl. Sebastian gives Ciel his T shots and covers the mark with hello kitty bandaids. Ciel complains every time that they are little girl bandaids. Sebastian replies, 'hello kitty is gender neutral.' (Sebastian has a hello kitty shrine in their room 😂)
Ciel loves doing makeup but wearing it himself gives him extreme dysphoria. So Sebastian lets Ciel put makeup on him instead.
Ciel does like to cross dress, but only for Sebastian.
Ciel has a gym buddy whenever he works out. He's never had any issues but it makes him feel more secure. If Sebastian isn't available he can go with Soma, Agni, Finny, or Bard.
He loves when people mistake him and his twin brother for each other as his brother is cis.
Ciel originally inherited his great grandma's wedding ring, but he gave it to his brother to pass to his future wife and/or daughter. His brother then had a ring made to match but as a more masculine version and gave that to Ciel. (For him to keep or pass down should him and Sebastian decide to adopt.)
Over the years Ciel has bought some of his favorite childhood toys, but the 'boy' versions. His very favorite is his blue stuffed rabbit. (He thinks gendering items is silly, but something about owning 'boy stuff' makes him smile.)
Sebastian is a bit of a himbo and whenever he sees anything that looks like it might be trans pride or is pink and blue and not 'too girlie' he gets it for Ciel and goes "for you!" 😁 (This is why their whole house has been taken over by cotton candy scented candles.)
Happy pride month! Hope y'all enjoy 💙
