Thing which I wonder about; Porrim has all those lovely tattoos, but they entered the game when they were thirteen. Was Beforus way more permissive about letting kids be tattooed, or did she learn to do them for herself during the six years in the game?
Also, I did the maths and the revenge reacharound and Aradia's death would have had to have happened, since they say it was "sweeps ago", when the trolls were no older than eight. Makes everything double horrible, I think.
Thinking; we're supposed to laugh when Kankri mentions them, but I think trans-caste trolls could absolutely be a thing. Blood colour affects so much of their physiology, I'm sure it would be perfectly possible to have dysphoria over what those effects should be without it merely being a desire for social mobility.
literally just realized earlier today that "skaia" is a combo of "sky" + "gaia". I'm bad at this literary analysis thing
