fun-n-fashion

I feel like in response to everyone being a massive jerkwad about it in canon fandom has gone the complete opposite way with JGY’s background, practically erasing it except when it is used for drama or angst. 

Like, I’m pretty sure that being raised in a brothel gave him a ton of useful skills and probably some he finds useless in his occupation as JGS’s right hand man. A lot of his mannerisms and actions read very feminine to me, and i don’t mean that in a bad way, but just like in a “I know I am smaller and weaker than everyone around me, how can I A. prevent myself from being hurt and B. turn this situation in another direction without people getting angry at me?” 

Like the shy, cute, looking at you from under his eyelashes thing that charms LXC and NMJ on their first meetings in the cql? definitely learned at the brothel. The conflict deescalation he uses literally all the time? brothel. The fact that he is constantly pleasantly smiling regardless of how much of a jerkwad people are being to or about him? brothel. The subservience and ego-stroking? brothel. 

I would really love to read a fic that explores this idea.
