What is TransTide?

Since trans headcanons and the portrayal of trans characters can be personal for many people, writers might be nervous to write trans headcanons without invitation. This mini challenge is for people to signal that they would love to receive trans headcanons, as well as to showcase their requested fandoms with canon trans characters.

Note that this exchange is open to nonbinary characters as well.

How do I participate?

• Leave a comment on this post linking your letter and/or listing your requested fandoms and characters if you 1) requested canonical trans characters, 2) are happy to receive a gift where your writer headcanons one or several of the characters as trans.
• Feel free to add any likes and DNWs.
• Make sure to include your ao3 name!
• If you post a fic for Yuletide with one or more trans characters, tag it with TransTide so people can find it easily.

Fandoms:
- Dinotopia

Any specific fandom details, preferences, comments, etc:
I think it would be really fun to explore gender within the Dinotopian world. Since the society is built on so many eras and cultures, there's bound to be a lot of differences. I like the idea of Dinotopia being very accepting of trans people, and perhaps even developing their own cultural norms around them that may be strange or surprising to newcomers. Something with a canonical or original character being trans would be great. Something more worldbuilding with journal entries, documents, archaeological carvings, etc. would be extremely great. Very much a go wild kind of request!

I'm happy to receive trans characters for any of my other fandoms (The Addams Family, Hellboy, Jurassic Park Original Trilogy, SurrealEstate, Too Late To Apologize: A Declaration) as well, I just didn't include them here bc I don't have any particular requests for them. I do prefer transitions from canon genders over transitions to canon genders, but that is not a hard and fast rule.
