What gender was I assigned at birth? Haha well actually I appeared to my father in a burst of light during a dream so I'd rather think of myself as having been assigned a vibe
Oh, my assigned gender? I mean, "dragon" is right there on my birth certificate, what more do you need
Some people think of transitioning as movement in a single direction. I think of mine as a rubber band ball, or perhaps one of those clumps of grass left behind by a lawnmower
No one assigned me a gender, as I slept in my crib a wasp crawled into my bedroom window and whispered the ten thousand genders of the trees and the soil into my baby ears

And then I got stung by it because it's a wasp
My sexuality is gender and my gender is gay, c'mon, this is basic biology 101 stuff, every textbook covers it
Oh, am I AMAB or AFAB? That's what you're asking? Well you see, when I was little ... [the screeching roar of a passing motorboat as it travels through the river] ... and now I'm gay, that's my story

Okay okay, enough joking around. I'll tell you the gender I was assigned at birth, but it'll cost you—your memories, perhaps, or what about a few years of your life? I'm sure we can find something in your soul that you'll be willing to offer in exchange
The gender I was assigned at birth was stolen from me by a great carp-headed beast that lives deep in the Adirondacks, and only you, intrepid adventurer, can get it back for me!
