One thing that I always try to make clear when it comes to Dusk is that the thing that embarrasses him the most about constantly being turned into a paragon of femininity is that he secretly kinda likes it.

Or at the very least, he likes how pretty he looks and the positive attention he receives.

That clashes with how he raised himself, trying to be peak machismo due to his already short stature and not so masculine physique. It was always a bit of compensation on his part.

There's a very strong chance I might make him accept these feelings in the future and have him come out as trans proper...but that's only if I want to shift Dusk's story from being a comedic one to a more serious one.

Right now, the fun comes from the contrast of how shy and embarrassed (and thus, cute) he reacts in these scenarios...which makes him come off as even MORE feminine by default.

Every now and then though, there's a little bit slips out every now and then, usually when getting complimented~

And to clarify, this is based on another...base of sorts created by
