Speaking of discriminatory attitudes, what does it say about assuming that the brash, forthright female character who wears slacks, comfortable shoes, and brandishes a weapon that would make The Governator envious, has to be a dyke? Just sayin', because in my younger fandom days that is exactly what would have been said about Coco, unless she dressed like Miss Fanservice. My own feelings on the matter is that Coco could really give a rat-grimm's ass about what other people have to say, because she is the person who will define what they will say. And it will be all for the good, of course! At this point I don't really care, since I have really wanted a CFVY subplot for 3 seasons now, and if this means they get their own book deal, I am ready for it!Β

Not sure, but her shoes are anything but comfortable.Β

Probably more comfy than "I don't know how Weiss manages to fight in these things!" Which still cracks me up.Β

That's fair, Coco doesn't need to move much in her stilettos in order to spray the chaingun. Weiss is all over the place.Β

Weiss & Coco are those young women who grew up wearing heels and being conditioned to spend much of the day in them. This didn't used to be such a deal with fashion-conscious women. (Watch Doris Day & Donna Reed cleaning house & prepping supper in pumps & you get the idea.) It's a fashion thing, and we men no longer get it. (Heels for men's formal footwear appeared in the late 16th century & disappeared in the early 19th century, with the exception of dressy cowboy boots.) But watching a woman who knows how to move in heels strut along is an admirable sight.Β Β

I always remember Chris Pratt running across a stage in heals because people were criticizing Jurassic World. Which isn't to say those weren't valid criticisms or that it's not hard, but it's a skill one can have.Β

Look, sometimes coming out is just voicing what is painfully obvious to everyone around you.
We have no confirmation on Velvet, though it seems VERY likely.Β

I pre-ordered it, but mostly because it comes out just in time for my flight to RTX.

Maybe she is, maybe she isn't. She needs way more screentime before we can come to a definite conclusion. Or have I missed something?

There was a leaked page for the novel that implied heavily she's dated women. Specifically "broke their hearts".

Could you shoot us a link?Β I'm not against her being gay or bi, but when I hear that she broke the hearts of women, that could be interpreted as just the act of turning them down.Β Β

Oh, I thought you meant that she broke hearts, men and women.Β But yeah, it's being specific about girls.Β Β
I'm really more worried that the story is just going to be really lackluster, rather than any actual lore or characters developments that invalidate any theories or headcanon.

Honestly, it's a YA tie in novel, so it could go either way. I'm hopeful, though. The manga tie-in was really good, so hopefully they communicate the same with this author and do something significant.

Kind had that look at first, yeah. Would've accepted it though since Coco Adel takes no shit & gives no shit.Β
