@kevin I absolutely agree with you. Regarding people saying Andrew got their characters wrong, part of the reason I made this post is that people also still complain about how Roxy identifies differently in different timelines and act like it was a mistake Andrew made or just shoehorning trans Roxy in for a Toblerone (Which as far as I know now is impossible, because that wasn’t one of the Toblerones, was it??) when I think textually, Hussie is not only characterizing Dirk and making more meta points about authorship in general, but also fleshing out Roxy’s character more and interrogating what gender means to people like Dirk and Roxy who are from a post-gender assignment planet.
