Queering the Tide 2024

[dauntlessshadowice]

 There are many ways of queering texts and characters. This challenge is for any and all of them! The widest possible definition of queering is used here. If you think your prompt counts, then do so we.


To participate, leave a comment on this post linking to your letter, so anyone interested in queering your canon for yuletide can find you. Tag any fics for this mini-challenge with Queering The Tide. (I suggest you tag both Queering the Tide and TransTide if the two happen to overlap.)

Any specific fandom details, preferences, comments, etc:
Raven, Jack, Lily, and Belladonna from Lies Like Poison are canonically queer (+ Jack is trans.) Juniper from TLWKY is m-spec, and Ruby + Brianna are also queer, iirc? or maybe just coded—I can’t remember. Paige from Degrassi is bisexual.

(posting Roseanne separately because I have many headcanons for Darlene.)

Fandom: Roseanne (TV 1988)
Any specific fandom details, preferences, comments, etc: I feel like she could be lesbian (if not including her feelings for David—I really like David, so I don’t want him totally out of the way; maybe f!David instead of erasing him entirely to make her lesbian?) but also bisexual. Also aromantic/aro-spec based on her reactions to Becky’s boyfriends. And trans (but a trans girl, not a guy.)
