the refusal to engage with media on its level, the need to self-insert instead of immersing yourself is literally the crux of the story. have fun and let others be themselves. easy to say, but hard to internalize. atp the fandom itself is being used as a medium to tell you this. theories are mocked

on a more metanarrative level, the game itself is about parasociality and the boundaries that keep us from being who we want to be /saying what we want to say. ***You, The Audience, Are An Intruder Directly Affecting This Word, Including What Happens And What Even Exists***

there is plenty of text supportng the idea that playing as kris and doting heavily on ralsei is essentially coercive selfshipping. im ngl i too was an egg who liked the fluffy goat, but it just doesnt feel right to append *my* story, *my* personhood, *my* character arc to ralsei. it's not about me

imo ralsei gives genderfluid more than transfem. the subtext is about breaking harmful norms, not fitting cleanly into a different one. plus the goat enjoys wearing both dresses and suits depending on context

as much as i think transfem ralsei is what ralsei's story is gonna be about , i do think they could easily turn out to be genderfluid instead given a lot of the things they say/how they feel about their presentation
