"there's a hidden darkness to this land. do you feel it?"
I tried to include the trans flag colours in the colour palette a little
#wrathion #worldofwarcraft

a drawing of wrathion from world of warcraft I drew when I thought about him saying "there's a hidden darkness to this land. do you feel it?" which I wrote beside him. his dialogue is very nostalgic and makes me happy. I tried to include the trans flag colours in the colour palette, particularly in the background :D he is a trans man

faerin was talking about her past and cried and did the crying emote 😂

oh you have to heat the flour... /looking at recipes

ruuari @ruuari.bsky.social · 5d

I have heard this as well! but does edible cookie dough have flour in it?!

I have a complex relationship with the game 😂 it's an incredibly goofy game, she thinks the cutscenes are funny, and so do I 😂 but I also have a genuine attachment to a bunch of the characters and it makes the whole thing both embarrassing and hilarious 😂💗 we laugh a lot

I need wrathion to be confirmed as a trans man or I'll die

I need wrathion to be confirmed as a trans man so much I'm going to cry

the fact that I've seen this character as trans for a decade, and how a large part of the queer fandom always has as well, and then in dragonflight, the expansion about him, and dragons, leans heavily into trans themes. entirely on purpose

he's one of the characters to explain how important a mortal form is to a dragon and how it's an important decision, how it's an expression of how you want the world around you to see you....

I felt so unbelievably teased. the game had already confirmed chromie as trans (huge heart emojis), and it's like, wrathion trans man confirmation within reach

the way, a decade ago, he tells you he chose his own name

and for the first time the idea that a character I actually care so much about would actually be confirmed trans

I wish it would happen once in my life

trans joy is drawing a binder peaking out from underneath a collar, or drawing the slight curve of a chest beneath a shirt 💖

#wranduin #wrathion #anduin #worldofwarcraft

a wranduin drawing of wrathion and anduin wrynn from world of warcraft lying in bed together. wrathion is still awake, holding anduin in his arms. anduin sleeps with his head on wrathion's shoulder. moonlight illuminates them both. wrathion is a trans man and wears no binder, his chest is unbound and very soft… I just know these things

when wrathion was young, dragon scales were faintly visible on his face. he also had to bind his chest
now older and more skilled with his magic, he’s figured out how to get his chest flat, but the scales make it imperfect and are the equivalent of having scars there

wrathion from world of warcraft, a trans man, and shirtless, with dragon scales around his chest. now older and more skilled with his magic, he’s figured out how to get his chest flat, but the scales make it imperfect and are the equivalent of having scars there
