I'm Neil and I love to draw queer characters, with an emphasis on trans joy. illustrator • bisexual trans man • he/him 🌈 Shop, Socials & Commissions: ruuari.carrd.co

tiny bit of internalized transphobia hurt/comfort in the horny MoP wranduin chest touching fic... I was hesitating to keep this part in at first but the more I read it over the more I realized this fits wrathion too well to leave out

“You- you don’t find it strange? My chest, it’s...” Wrathion tried to say. “Many people would be...” disgusted, he thought.

“Wrathion, your body is perfect,” Anduin said, pressing a kiss behind the dragon’s ear. “You’re so strong and handsome. It’s not your fault if other people can’t see that. I love you exactly how you are.” He nuzzled his cheek into the soft, dark curls at the back of Wrathion’s head. “I would hate to see you let others dictate your self worth. You’re beautiful, Wrathion. Not in spite of your body, but because of it.”

The words, combined with the soothing sound of Anduin’s voice, made Wrathion feel lighter. His heart ached, but in a pleasant way. He nodded, relaxing in Anduin’s arms.

“Please, continue.”

“Are you sure?”

“I’m positive. It feels nice. I like it.”

I created the AU of Wrathion and Anduin starting a family as a trans centered narrative, in 2015, when I was a teenager and about two years on testosterone. I wanted desperately to see representation of trans men like me growing up to be happy adults

birthday gifts from lovely gf, who genuinely did not know wrathion was in the islands & isles exploring azeroth book, and bought it because she thought "lor'themar going on his honeymoon with his taller-than-him-gf" was funny
