- she doesn’t start questioning it until beth starting to get older, actually. she often had to go out with leandra to help buy fabrics for beth’s new clothes - that’s where it started.
- by the time she’s 18 she’s covered in hair from her face down to her ankles - she starts covering herself up more, making the summer heat unberable some days.
- the first person she tells isn’t family. it’s serendipty at the blooming rose, the pretty elven girl with a deep voice and rumors swirling around her existence - hawke pays for two hours and cries for an hour and a half.
- when money finally comes her way she starts changing things for herself. she starts shaving. waxing. removing the thick, coarse hair, knowing it would be back by the end of the day.
- the second person she tells is merrill and the elf is thrilled because trans people are so so common amongst the dalish - merrill is actually the one who teaches her about tucking safely!
- isabela knew from the get go and between her and anders they’re able to get her supplements
- when the banquet in the champion’s honor finally arrives, she’s herself for the first time, in a dress that accentuates her hips, modest heels, a corset - people call her beautiful and guests of all genders clamor to dance with her
- she was never able to tell her mother in person, so she goes to the chantry often, to the plaque that sebastian put up for her and speaks to that.
