[Full screen for better quality, space/click for next] ➤[Bio-Main Info] Name: Valerian 'Val' Marblemaw Age: 16 Birthday: October 17 [Libra] Gender: Trans Masc [AFAB] Pronouns: He/Him Sexuality: Gay Height: 5'4 ✎__________________________________________ ➤[Bio-Extra Info] Personality: Very shy, anxious, insecure, practically afraid of people, doesn't want to be a 'burden' to other people, extremely awkward, scared to speak up, overthinker, over apologizer, a wee bit silly at times. Likes: His Dad's, flowers, warm soup, sweaters, hugs, gardening, anything sweet. Dislikes: Socializing, people deadnaming/misgendering him, crowded places, literally anything that requires him to be near people, loud noises. Hobbies: Writing, drawing, painting, reading, sewing. Other: Valerian is often too shy to correct people when they use his deadname/misgender him, so he tends to just sit there internally screaming. He'd apologize about ten times for the smallest of things. The little flower things clipped to the bottom of his sweater vest are made out of felt and the flowers themselves like small plush toys, Val actually made it himself. His coat (I accidentally called it a cape in the ref) is optional, so are his pins. [He's just like me fr] Song: Buttercup by Jack Stauber
[Backstory] Valerie was sitting at school, waiting for classes to finally be dismissed. She- or he I should say. Knew exactly what he was going to do after school, come out of course. He was planning to do this for the past few weeks. He was finally brave enough to tell his dads about this. He knew they would still love him, but for some reason he was still nervous. He knew he was a trans boy for a long time but one thing he only found out recently was that he still liked boys. He was planning all of this in his head. He'd get home, change, and when he went to eat he'd come out to his dads, simple as that right? Or maybe he should tell them the minute he got home? He'd tell them that he's trans and gay, tell them he'd like to be called Valerian or Val instead of Valerie. But Valerian wasn't sure what to do, or say afterwards. The bell finally rang and Valerian got up, got his backpack and went into the halls. It felt weird knowing that everyone else knew him as a her, and as Valerie instead of Valerian. He had gotten so used to calling himself a he and using the name Valerian in his head, that his real name felt weird. And it felt even weirder knowing that soon his family would know about this. Some of his friends knew this, and by some I mean two of them. He was way too scared to tell anyone else. Valerian got lost in his trainwreck of thoughts he barely noticed that he had already made his way outside of school. Vintergröna felt warmer than usual. Valerian felt this weird feeling in his stomach, or maybe it was his heart, 'Am I experiencing heart failure due to how stressed I currently feel?' He thought 'No it can't be that, it's just that I'm. It's just that I-' Valerian wanted to scream, he didn't know why he felt this nervous. He knew his dads would still love him, they're both gay for crying out loud, but he still didn't know how to feel. Valerian walked home, he didn't live very far from school. A billion thoughts ran through his mind 'I'm only 14, I'm too young to know if I'm really trans right? No, that doesn't make sense. I've always felt like a boy.' He tried to keep his mind off of these thoughts by looking around, but he couldn't help overthinking. After about 15 minutes of walking Valerian finally got home. Entering his home he felt weird knowing that his entire life would probably change in the next few hours. He wouldn't have to be called a name that he didn't think was his, and he could finally just be himself. Surprisingly, both of his dads were actually home already. "Hey Valerie!" One of his dads, Erin, said. 'That felt, strange.' Valerian thought. "Hey dads!" Valerian replied, 'Should I tell them already or wait till later?' He asked himself as he sat down at the table. 'Well, it's now or never' he told himself. "I actually have something to tell you guys." He said. "Hm? What is it?" Asked his other dad, Archer. "Well. I've been meaning to tell you guys this for a while now.." Valerian continued. He took a deep breath and said "I'm trans and I'm gay. Uhm, I'd like to be called Valerian or Val from now on and uh yeah that's about it." "Well..-" Erin started. "Hello Valerian! Hello my son!" Archer interrupted. Valerian chuckled, "So you guys still love me right?" "Of course we do! We always will, no matter what." Erin said, smiling. Valerian threw his backpack to the floor and hugged his dads. After a few seconds he finally let go, "Doing this was a lot easier than I thought it would be-" Valerian said. "Valerian, if you have anything else to tell us in the future, don't be scared to do so." Erin replied. "We won't burn you at the stake, Val." Archer said, "Anyways, are we gonna have a coming out party? Well I mean it would be more like a gender reveal to be frank." He added. Valerian and Erin both laughed "Why not?" Valerian replied, smiling ear to ear. [Achievement get: make a character with alive and loving parents !!]
