i really love getting my mom into all my hyperfixations bc like yesterday i was telling her about gabrielle and lestat's relationship in the book and the whole "being the organ for her which women do not really have" thing and out of the blue she says "wouldn't it be so crazy if lestat was actually born female but gabrielle decided to raise him as a boy so he would have the freedom that she didn't?" and i just brought up rose of versailles but in the back of my head i was like holy shit. mom's first headcanon. and its fire too???
