this is indeed a safe space for such opinions because wlw hkv would genuinely be so interesting to execute storytelling-wise as well. i’ve been having this conversation with sam that it’s a shame in most of aus for yuri hkv everything is left unchanged & nothing differentiates them from their male counterparts. let’s not act as if it wouldn’t put them in contrasting circumstances or, at the very least, give them opposite consequences/potential outcomes of the actions that happened throughout hkv lore. the possibilities usually become a wasted opportunity to explore the shifted norm & what is expected of them then (this applies to all genders especially & even sexualities too). THAT BEING SAID, butchfemme hkv is so HOT. butch alhaitham just hits different & i don’t care what anyone else says.
