    Omg, that cute little blush. Wilf PLEASE. Also I’m just… really enjoying the idea that anytime they’re looking at anyone in an even slightly sinister way, they’re having a murderous internal monologue and fantasies about violently killing the person they’re looking at.
    I can’t believe Beppe lucked out.

    I wonder if Wilf is an experienced killer by now, or just filled with enough murderous intent to make it happen? Certainly a good actress, either way.

        So then, the correct way to call them is “actor”? (This is an honest question. I knew about the pronouns, but never really thought about the nouns themselves.
        ) p.s: English is not my native language. Hope the idea gets through.

        Interesting! Wil was crossdresser in the first version if I remember correctly or maybe it just wasn’t stated in that version. I didn’t know that was changed for this one nor that Wil goes by they/them pronouns. Do you know where I can find the link for that? Plus other canon stuff outside of the comic that I am probably missing.

          No, you’re right. In the original version, Wil was a cisgender woman who was passing as a man- I can’t remember for what reasons, though. As for this iteration of Wil, things aren’t so clear cut. The author has only been using they/them pronouns for Wil throughout the story, and Wil’s allies have not yet referred to them with any pronouns. Wil’s enemies misgender them as a woman. And as for how to address nonbinary people outside of pronouns…. Its complicated, and can vary from person to person. ‘Actor’ can be used gender neutrally, and I’ve seen nonbinary DFAB people who act refer to themselves with the term.

            For what it’s worth, internally, we pretty much refer to Wil interchangeably as “she” or “they.” Interpret as you will! They are “God’s Instrument” first and foremost. ;-)
