>>46 >>58 I really am sorry if my comment came off as trying to shove their opinion aside; I was just sort of thinking aloud as I figured out why I didn't find the Medic's acceptance of Sniper to be too unbelievable, but obviously my opinion isn't nearly as informed or aware as a trans* person's would be. I think that what Anne is doing is difficult to get right because it is a serious situation in a ridiculous setting. Sure, we can shrug and say "everything in TF2 is crazy; this doesn't need to be the same as in the real world," but I feel like that's walking a dangerous line, because this fic does deal with the very real and serious issue of trans* acceptance. To simply ignore things like having trouble accessing proper medical care would be irresponsible, but to cast Medic as a typical doctor would be incorrect. I'm not sure what the solution is here.
