So, what're your favorite f/f ships that involve (canon or headcanon'd) trans women?

Lup/Lucretia from The Adventure Zone! Lup is canonically a trans woman and she's basically an out and out trans power fantasy (which is surprising, given she was created by a cis straight dude). I fucking love her.

Lucretia is my forever love, and Lup is one of my favorite people to pair her with. Some hot fic, too!

Nomi/Amanita from Sense8, they're just so cute. There was no hope for me after "I will burn down that hospital before I let them touch that beautiful brain of yours".

It's been a while since I did anything in TWEWY fandom, but I love Shiki/Eri and tend to read Shiki as trans.

Ooh, that had never occurred to me before, but that is a really interesting interpretation.

I think Indya Moore should be cast in more things because she's perfect on Pose but her storyline is so heterosexual (though I would 100% watch Problematic Angel/Elektra). This music video where she makes out with a hot butch is very good:

I like f!Shep/Miranda Lawson for Mass Effect (also love Shep/Liara/Miranda) and I like the headcanon that Miranda is trans.

There's a free web series called Her Story that's about two trans women, one who's starting a relationship with a man when she's outed publicly, and another who's in a relationship with an abusive and controlling man, who leaves him for a cis woman, with a cameo from her trans lady indie musician ex. The trans characters all have trans actors, and a trans woman was involved in writing it.

It's usually not my type of thing because there's no sf/f element, but I watched it anyway because there's so little trans content and it was short, and for some reason it stuck with me. (I would watch a Violet/Bad Penny prequel, too!) It tries to explore how trans women's relation to their gender and dysphoria affects their relationships and who they feel comfortable with, such as Violet being attracted to women, but feeling insecure and body-conscious around cis women. It can be a bit roughly sketched out in characterizations, since it's hard to build up characters in that little time, but those parts had a certain realness to them.

Official site, entire series is on YouTube: http://www.herstoryshow.com/

Oh yeah, I loved Her Story a lot. I enjoyed the way Violet and her girlfriend bonded over Game of Thrones! They had good taste in ships. :D

Claire in Questionable Content is trans! I ship her with her boyfriend, but I also really ship her with Faye, the slightly assholish roommate. I loved the way Claire and Faye clashed when Claire first started coming around to Marten's place - Claire was shy and hesitant back then, but Faye bought out the backbone in her! I also ship Faye with her girlfriend, but I still think Claire/Faye would be really hot to read, especially if it was a subset of a poly thing with Bubbles and with Marten. (I'm not sure if I can see Claire/Bubbles having sex, but oh my god the kissing would be adorable. Claire could fit entirely into Bubbles's lap.)

This is a really cute comic about a trans lesbian and her childhood friend.
