(From Blue's Perspective)
"Christophen is a better choice," Perita said.
"I am not having your mate around me when you are my personal guard," I said.
"We don't even act like we are mates!"
"Whatever. It's a no."
"I don't even like boys that much."
"Are you lesbian?"
"What's that?"
"It means, do you like girls?"
"Yeah. I prefer girls. Is that the term for it in Your Highness's world?"
"Yeah. When girls like girls, we call them 'lesbian'. When boys like boys, we call them 'gay'. When girls or boys like both genders, we call them 'bi-sexual'. When boys or girls do not feel themselves as the gender they were born as and want to be identified otherwise, we call them 'transgender'. Then, there are non-binary people who like to be identified as an intermediate or separate third gender, identify with more than one gender, no gender, or have a fluctuating gender identity."
"Wow, these are a lot…"
"Well, yeah."
