Taigen’s Love Confession NEEDS To Come Before He Finds Out Mizu Is A Woman.

Taigen’s love confession NEEDS to come before he finds out Mizu is a woman.

Listen. I have given this a lot of thought and the more I think about it, the more I’m sure. When looking at Mizu and Mikio’s marriage, we can see how Mikio was in to the idea of a strong woman only so far as he was still stronger than her. This is clear when Mikio insists that he wants to “see all of [mizu]” and insists that they spar; Mikio doesn’t unsheath his blade even though Mizu tell him not to hold back. He assumes he is stronger than her and when this is proven false, like the beta bitch he is, he bails.

But with Taigen it’s different. Mizu and Taigen’s relationship has been a power struggle from the start. Taigen wasn’t introduced to Mizu as a woman or a wife. Taigen has always seen Mizu as a swordsman first. And when the hostility between the two starts to cool, it is because of their mutual admiration of the other’s skill. Mizu’s strength and boldness are what win Taigen over in the first place.

We also see a very important juxtapose between when Mizu pins Mikio to the ground and when she pins Taigen to the ground. In the first instance, Mikio pushes Mizu off him and calls her a monster. He feels put off and emasculated by being overpowered. In the Mizu/Taigen scene, however, once Mizu has Taigen pinned, he stares, awestruck, into Mizu’s eyes and gets a raging hard on. Instead of feeling emasculated, Taigen get so aroused that he has a full blown bi awakening.

So we know that Taigen is different to Mikio in that he is attracted to Mizu BECAUSE she can kick his ass, not in spite of it. But Mizu has been burned before. Badly. So if Taigen were to confess his feelings and tell Mizu that her strength is what he adores most about her, she’d be like, “right, sure, heard that one before.” And that’s why Taigen needs to confess his feelings BEFORE he finds out what’s in Mizu’s pants.

Taigen’s Love Confession NEEDS To Come Before He Finds Out Mizu Is A Woman.

In my daydreaming about a Migen love confession, I find myself reminded of this quote. How Mikio was like the exotic bird collector. He only liked the idea of Mizu knowing her way around a sword so long as at the end of the day, he can still put her back into the caged-in roll of the house wife.

Taigen is also guilty of this with Akemi. I sure there is still no small amount of attraction and love between them, but I think Taigen pursues Akemi mostly out of the personal fable he has written about himself; the poor fisherman’s son who raises himself up to be the star of his Dojo and then marries a princess. He might not have wanted to cage Akemi as much as other men would have, but he still sees her as the exotic bird. The prize. And thats why I can’t ship them.

But with Mizu it’s different. Taigen even admits that Mizu is a better fighter than him. He KNOWS he could never cage her and by the end on the first season he strops trying, opting to stand beside her instead of against her (“it’s your fight, so it’s mine” 😭) So when he does confess his feelings, he has to do is as one man to another and make it clear to Mizu that her strength is what he loves most and that he would never want her to be anything less then the superior swordsman she is.

Only then will Mizu have a chance of believing that Taigen wants to be with her, not to subdue her into a wifely role, but to stand beside her in all her greatness. If Taigen’s confession were to come after he finds out she’s a woman, Mizu might just think, “oh, NOW you want to be with me, cause you think just because I’m a woman I’ll eventually submit to you.” Mizu needs to know she is loved AS SHE IS.

Also, I just think it would be HILLARIOUS if Taigen confesses, and Mizu is like, “ well then….. I guess I should let you know…” and then Taigen spends the rest of the episode with his mind fucking BLOWN and complaining that he has spent the last several months coming to terms with the fact that he is attracted to another man only to find out the man he is attracted to is a woman! He goes through a whole bi awakening for nothing!

Updated headcanons list since I haven't done one in a while

---

-After the series is over Zoe gets Krel a job at Hex Tech and unofficially takes him on as her own apprentice

-Nana and Toby helped Barbara and Strickler get all of the Changeling babies adopted. Ophelia and Javier end up adopting 1 or 2 of them to be Not/Enrique's and Claire's siblings

-Ophelia probably has some really weird hobbies that she passed on to her daughter. So while the gang was in Camelot, Claire agreed to spend a little bit of her free time helping Steve practice swordfighting when Lancelot wasn't around

-Rise of the Titans was just a weird fever dream that Steve had after coming back to the present time. Douxie killed Bellroc and Skrael, Nari and everyone else lives happily ever after, The End.

-Jim, Claire, and Toby all go to college together!! Claire and Toby graduated high school, and Jim takes the year after Wizards to readjust to human life and gets his GED

-After Wizards, Jim now can transform between his human and troll form at will. Most of the time he chooses to stay as a human

-After canon Nari spends a lot of time with the group, but especially Jim. I think she would curl up on his chest and fall asleep. It doesn't really work out in his human form, but if he's in his troll form and stressed out she'll climb on him and start 'purring.' (Imagine a really big cat with antlers)

-The amulet stays broken at the end, but it's fine because Jim remembers that he's the Trollhunter with or without it. Even if the Akiridion one gets made later on, he recognizes that it's not necessary

-Jim walks his mom down the aisle at her wedding, and Blinky officiates it (he's not licensed)

-They have to explain to Blinky what a human proposal/engagement/wedding is. The concept intrigues him a LOT, so with Claire's help he manages to put his own spin on a proposal to AAARRRGGHH :)

-There's some universe out there where Morgana redeemed herself+lived after Wizards and becomes the cool wine aunt

-After the summer that the Tarrons came to Earth, a lot of students became more open about their identity. Shannon & Connie become a couple, Darci experiments with being NB, and Mary is unlabeled but loudly proclaims that "she likes girls"

-Douxie and Zoe got married one time like 300 years ago partly for shits & giggles and partly for tax reasons (America is expensive). They never talk about it (tbh the certificate is a couple hundred years past being valid) but she still wears a ring to prevent people from hitting on her

- ⬆️ I don't think they would be in a super exclusive relationship with each other, mainly bc sometimes they fight and will go their separate ways for a couple years. But they do care about each other and even if one has pissed the other off, they'll still have each other's backs

-At some point they all go on a trip around the world together for different reasons. Jim wants to learn more about different culture's foods, Claire and Steve are into the fine arts and history of different regions, Toby's interested in seeing geography that's not in California (his life goal is to have a rock off of Mt Everest), and Douxie's in it to see how things have changed since the last time he visited wherever

-The main thing that started it was Eli wanting to take the Tarrons to a different country. Varvatos didn't want to let the twins go without him, Steve didn't want Eli or Aja to go without him, eventually it turned into everyone coming along

-Don't worry about how they pay for all of that

-ToA takes place in the same universe as HTTYD and Rise of the Guardians

-In my heart Jim is the real Hiccstrid descendant, because 1. Barbara kind of looks like Valka, and 2. fuck The Nine Realms

-I hate the ending to The Hidden World, but even if the dragons didn't leave in the end they are not as common a sight in modern times, especially in urban/suburban places like Arcadia. But there is enough historical art and enough information in museums about dragons that Jim has an interest in them. Hence the Night Fury background on the computer

-Douxie and Jack have 1000% crossed paths at some point. I think he was the first person to believe in and see Jack, and the reason Jack ever learned that he could be seen if people believed in him. But I don't think Douxie ever told him he was immortal and now they're far apart and haven't seen each other in 300 years 💔 someone set up a reunion event for them

-Nana and Douxie have tea together 2 times a month. He tells her stories about his adventures and she tells him about her experiences during the war. Her real age is a secret to everyone but him :)

The best Severus and Harry dynamic is when everything is exactly the same and they absolutely loathe each other

But also Severus is the one Harry goes to when he has a nightmare, the half-asleep Severus asking if he needs to 'kiss it better' (mocking, snarky) or 'actually kiss it better' (serious, protective) and he just needs to see how Harry reacts to know whether he needs to comfort Harry or if he's good to make fun of Harry until Harry's so annoyed he stops being upset. Severus is the one who kisses Harry's forehead when Harry absolutely wrecks himself playing Quidditch. Harry's the one who drags Severus to bed when Severus is trying to power through a headache. Harry's the one who cheers Severus up when he's upset by just being a sassy lil shit and cracking Severus up.

And it's even funnier when Remus Lupin is the only person who doesn't understand what the hell is this hot-and-cold dynamic? How the hell can Sev both hug Harry after a nightmare and yet also try strangle him when he says one thing wrong? And why is everyone so normal about this?! Why isn't anyone concerned?!

To everyone else, it's pretty obvious to everyone that Remus is an only child.
