may as well ask, is there a proper name for those type of spectacles that he wears?

I don’t believe they ever had a name.

They were likely a holdover from the days in which visitors to the city were required to wear them so that everything looked green.

The design was based on Denslow's illustration of the character.

The name for glasses of that style is "pince-nez", French for pinch nose, referring to how they stay on.

I'm not sure the Guardian would appreciate having a sex-change against his will, especially a magic one.

Oh, you're right I did misread!Β  When Ozma said "RingMISTRESS" I thought she was refrring to changing the Gate Guardian to that, but she was actually correcting herself for saying "RingMaster".

jk, but seeing as you have done sex change transformation in the past it wouldnt surprise me if you did something like that....actually considering how much i know of your writing style it would take a lot to surprise me in the first place

*shrugs* My story, my ideas.

But for the moment, sex changes are completely unnecessary in this narrative.

Interesting. Ozma's letting someone seemingly uncorrupted take the reins while she's off doing this... thing.

I have a distinct feeling there's more plates spinning here than meets the eye.
