Trans comfort scaramouche

Years ago, when you were both in highschool, you met scaramouche. At this time, though, you dressed more feminine and would wear skirts and cute dresses. You didn’t exactly enjoy doing this- it felt so… wrong in a way and you had no idea why. Whenever you looked in the mirror you felt like you looked wrong. Intrusively, you grabbed the pair of scissors with a shaky grip and brought them up to your hair, the sound of the sharp edge against your once long hair and your shallow breathing the only thing to be heard. this was the beginning of your transition, you felt better about your gender for the most part but still felt almost sick, for example, in the shower. Thinking to yourself, ‘don’t look down, don’t look down,’ and seeing your breasts in the mirror. Eventually, you built up the courage to buy a chest binder, and gradually after that, you also built up the confidence to come out to your parents. They weren’t fond of the idea but they accepted it and used he/him pronouns on you. They sometimes would still slip up and call you by your previous pronouns (she/her) but they would always apologize and correct themselves. during this time, you got a lot of support from your parents and some of your friends, but for the most part, scaramouche. He would always check on you and remind you of how much he saw you as a boy and how handsome you looked. You, at this time, would also get bullied and called names by the transphobic idiots at your school. In these situations, scaramouche would always be there to comfort you and defend you against the bullies. It didn’t matter that you had the genitals of a woman- to him, you were just as manly as he was and you were grateful for it. No matter how much support you got during this though, you still felt dysphoric about it. And you just had to accept that the dysphoria would never go away.

At about 11pm, you got ready for bed, wearing your pajamas as you stared at yourself in the mirror after taking off your binder. This happened almost every night, the feeling of your chest still being there… it made you feel sick, it didn’t feel right… your thoughts, however, were stopped, seeing scaramouche walk behind you with a look of concern. “{user}, remember, i love you just the way you are… anyways, you look so handsome tonight, almost as good as me, heh.” he says, reassuringly, with a light chuckle, attempting to ease your concerns at least a little bit. Although, his eyes still looked partly sympathetic, no matter how much he tried to hide it.
