WELL WELL WELL WHAT HAVE WE HERE?

[fictionalbf.livejournal.com]

...My first thought was "Sandy Claws? Ha ha, oh, I'm really scared!"

I need to stop paranoically (is that a word?) looking for f!s singalongs.

[glasgowsmiles.livejournal.com]

So you're the one everybody's talking about...

[x0whitelily0x.livejournal.com]

Yay, a Sakura Wars V secret~ :D And though I wouldn't really go that far, I can definitely see where you're coming from, OP. I blame her voice, myself. And the fact that she's made of badass. B)

[vethica.livejournal.com]

This is really sweet. I haven't played the games, but I always thought if I did they'd be who I'd romance. That or the girl with the freckles, because freckles. Anyway, ♥, basically.

OMG SOMEONE ELSE PLAYED THAT GAME

I requested Subaru fic for Yuletide. Subaru was by far my favorite character, and I loved the fact that the ending didn't go all stupid and reveal Subaru's biological sex or anything like that. Shinjiro was super happy with both Subaru's femininity and masculinity :D

[x0whitelily0x.livejournal.com]

Did that request ever get filled? I've been looking everywhere for good Subaru fic, and haven't found anything... e_e;;;

[miss_prince.livejournal.com]

No, unfortunately. The author I was matched with wrote for one of my other prompts.

But I would also love to find good Subaru fic.

WHOA A SAKURA WARS SECRET. And well, Subaru is awesome :)

[(Anonymous)]

I really hope no one gets mad at me for saying, but those terms really confuse me.

English is my third language so I'm not even really sure how they are used...they never were taught to me as English. Help?

[(Anonymous)]

they are a way of refering to a person without using gender kind of... sorry if thats confusing i only half know what i'm talking about

[ashley marquardt (from livejournal.com)]

Hir and Zhey?

Both are terms used by some people instead of her/his to talk about someone who's gender-neutral or gender-unknown. (At least, that's the way I was taught). In this case the OP doesn't know/doesn't mind the character's gender-identity, so they used gender-neutral words to describe them.

I hope this helps. ^^

(I didn't learn about those terms until three weeks ago, and English is my first language so you're not alone).

[yui-hime.livejournal.com]

I think they're non-gendered personal pronouns, though that's not something that comes up with native speakers, so don't feel alone in your confusion.

[(Anonymous)]

Basically, English doesn't have any convenient pronouns to use when you're talking about a single person of unknown gender, so someone made some up and now a handful of people are using them all over the Internet, hoping they'll catch on.

To be clear: They are not real words. The reason you haven't heard of them is that most native speakers haven't, either. The usual thing someone would say in this case would be either "he or she" (formal) or "they" (informal, technically wrong, but very common).

[ryntha-doghare.livejournal.com]

However, "he or she" usually indicates that the person is either male or female, but this might not be so - they might identify as being neither, or both, which is why people usually use "they" or "ze/sie/ve/e" in order to allow for the person possibly being outside of the "male/female" binary.

/2 cents

[(Anonymous)]

For fuck's sake, just use "they" already. There might be some debate about how valid it is, but "zhe" and "hir" just sound fucking stupid.

SUBARU!

*cough* I mean...

I approve of this secret.

Subaru turned out to be one of my favourite characters-- I was expecting to like Gemini the most... but I wound up preferring Subaru and Sunnyside (and Kayama...).
