A/N - This is genderfluid Tommy! Hope you enjoy.
TW: Swearing
"Tommy you sound like a girl when you get angry, and when you scream too," Quackity snickered. Tommy almost said 'thank you', but caught himself in time. Instead, he said, "What's wrong with that?"
Wilbur, who was listening to the conversation, grinned to himself. In his mind, Tommy was feeling as if his masculinity was being threatened, and he knew if he took offense to Quackity's remarks he would get pestered further. So the boy ignored it, figuring that would get them to abandon the subject. He was growing smarter, Wil conceded, but he couldn't escape Wil's teasing.
In reality, the blond wasn't forming some complicated plan to protect his fragile masculinity. He was actually wondering why he was so happy when Quackity likened his voice to a girl's because when he thought about it, he really didn't mind sounding feminine at all. He liked how his voice could go high and how his hair was soft and fluffy. In fact, he kind of wanted to grow it out so he could style it.
On the other hand, he also didn't mind how his features were so male. He didn't mind his skinny hips and prominent nose and his normally deep voice. He liked being masculine, and he liked being feminine.
After the stream, Tommy decided to look into this and ended up doing an entire mini-project. His search history was now filled with questions like,
"Why do I like feeling feminine and masculine"
"Am I transgender"
"Am I still a boy if I like feeling like a girl"
"Can I be a boy and a girl"
"Do I have to have the same gender all the time"
"Can my gender change back and forth"
After a deep dive into gender identity, he concluded that he was somewhere between agender and genderfluid.
One might think Tommy was in emotional turmoil in discovering this about himself, but it just felt like another name for a feeling he'd had forever. It felt liberating to know what it was, but it didn't change anything as much as he thought it would. He decided he wanted to use he/they pronouns for now, but he also liked the idea of she/her pronouns.
Tommy felt a smile spread across their face; this was a nice feeling.
~The next day~
Wilbur and Quackity were still hung up on the 'comparing Tommy to a girl' bit, refusing to let it go until Tommy blew up like they knew he would. They did the exact same thing on this stream as they did yesterday, pestering Tommy about being feminine and calling him 'Big Woman'.
"Tommy, I'm going to break you."
Wilbur was exasperated; he had focused all his energy on getting Tommy to finally explode and get angry that they were comparing him to a girl. But the boy took it all in stride, teasing them right back and not getting engaged. He was very calm the entire stream.
Afterward, Tommy and Wilbur stayed in the VC to chat for a bit.
"Tommy, what was that?" Wilbur asked.
"What was what?"
"I don't know, you just seemed very... non-streamer Tommy. Like, very chill."
Wilbur had spoken to Tommy many times and knew the boy had a quiet side to him, and he also knew he didn't like showing that side on the internet, preferring to be hyper and energetic for the fans and the content.
Tommy's only response to this was letting out a quiet hum.
"I guess I couldn't get you to crack," The musician sighed.
Tommy let out a quiet chuckle. "I was wondering why you kept bothering me about being a girl," he said.
"Well, I was hoping that you would become the meme you always do and start screaming about how you're a 'Big Man' and all that shit. But of course, you had to be all mature," Wil teased.
"Why would I be upset about that?"
"Because you're a man...?"
"Indeed I am."
"...And not a woman?"
"Well, I'm also that."
Wilbur's brow furrowed in confusion; he was totally cool with Tommy identifying however he wanted, but this was a bit out of left field. After all, the boy was constantly talking about how manly and masculine and strong he was and how much he loved women.
So, in a wonderful show of eloquence, he responded with, "Huh?"
Tommy sighed, mentally preparing themselves for this conversation. They were about to come out to Wilbur, to anyone, for the first time ever.
"I'm pretty sure I'm genderfluid, Wil. I feel different day-to-day. Like, sometimes I feel like a male, sometimes a female, sometimes in between, and sometimes neither. Today was somewhere in between. I've been feeling pretty comfortable as a boy but also definitely appreciated you guys making me feel like a girl. You didn't know you were doing it, but you and Quackity just validated me for like two hours straight."
The two shared a friendly laugh. "I'm glad we weren't making you uncomfortable, I was kind of getting worried that that was what we were doing. And also, I'm proud of you Tommy! That's super cool and I'm really honored you trust me enough to tell me. Have you come out to anyone else?"
"You're the first one, actually," Tommy murmured, a bit embarrassed. Wilbur silently awed at Tommy's tone and his heart swelled in pride of himself and his little sibling.
"Would you mind telling me what pronouns you're comfortable with whenever we talk?"
"Sure thing! Right now I'm kind of feeling like all of them. I am encompassing every gender. I am so powerful. And guess what Wilbur, I have a knife."
Oh no.
(A/N, skip if you're not interested)
I would really like to start writing more angst, like heavy stuff. I started writing an agere oneshot with some really sensitive topics, but I thought it was too heavy and triggering to post. I would still like to write an agere oneshot with a large helping of angst though, and some comfort at the end of course. Let me know if you would want that. Hope you enjoyed this one!
