This article contains spoilers for Final Fantasy 16. “Is he…? I drop the controller, lift my arms into the air and let out a whoop. It’s not just any character either. It’s Prince Dion Lesage, the Dominant of Bahamut. That’s right folks, the king of dragons is gay. It’s all too rare to see LGBTQ+ representation in high profile AAA games.

If Found… and pushing back on shame

Am I standing too gay? What about these colourful socks? Are they too much? Will holding a partner’s arm in public turn into a problem? Something private and intimate altered into something shameful or political, all through other people’s reactions.
