“...and his name will be known to him before it is known to any other”
i’m so??? emotional about this line. truly a passing sentence in a bigger scene that made me felt Seen and Known
i think a lot of its impact is because it wasn’t a Big Thing™️. the scene didn’t grind to a halt to mention pete’s transness, the language used wasn’t anachronistic and fits right into the historical setting.

trans people existing as fully realised people with hopes and dreams, pasts and futures to come; it just means a lot to me
