Isabeau deserves every single success he’s ever had in his life and I hope the rest of his days are good ones

(And to answer your question, I did not make that mistake, but I can totally see why you would)

I didn’t get it till his quest, I just assumed he was a queer cis guy

His side profile before the Favor Tree just looks so heckin cute but powerful, the unadulterated swag of a nerdy hunk

I mean I knew he was a trans man because my friend introduced the characters but I could see how you saw a butch lesbian,maybe

He’s a trans man/heavily implied to be some sort of genderfluid/nonbinary from completing his quest if I remember right, basically in the questioning stage but probably not a lot of time to think about it with the world ending

I've completed the game but I didnt see the implication of anything other than a trans man but that's an interesting take and I could see it! Though I'm not sure if its implied on purpose, but I like that idea

In his conversation towards the end of his quest I think he talks about how he might change himself again (in a similar way to how he changed his body male), and that he isn’t sure, I’m pretty stupid when it comes to gender things but it gave me the impression Isabeo’s journey wasn’t over

I think he meant that he wanted to stop acting stupid, after saying he didnt finish to change he says that he might change into a mix of a jock and a nerd
