MAKO’S NOT HERE FOR YOUR CONDESCENDING BULLSHIT
I love that she doesn’t say a word here. She told them off for getting on Usagi, and I think there she was hoping (even though she knows better) that talking could be enough, but the SECOND someone tries to lay a hand on her, it’s throw down time. She doesn’t NEED to argue with words here. Her actions are going to do the talking, and they are loud and clear.
Me too, Usagi. Me too.
This is the first shot of Mako we see in the opening preview.
Beautiful.
Alright, finally done with everything! The liveblog will start in just a few minutes, with the tag #Mako day liveblog if you want to block it!
Headcannon: Makoto is amazingly light on her feet. It’s part of what makes things like dancing come so easily to her.
When Minako first notices, she assumes it’s a habit based in sports or fighting tactics. That’s why she’s light footed, after all.
But really, it’s something Makoto learned to try and negate her size. She’s always been too tall for her age, “too big,” so she learned to sound small, especially after her parents died and she was shuffled among guardians who didn’t really want her. No stomping, no shouting, no big laughter. She learned to step so quietly that they had to see her to know she was there.

THE BOOKS NO
I DON’T HAVE ALL THE DETAILS BUT YEAH THAT’S SO MANY BOOKS. I think the entire floor might be shut down today too since the girl who messaged me got put in Nook today. IT’S NOT A GOOD SITUATION
headcanon i will never abandon: trans girl makoto kino
#moving from school to school with no past and no relatives to link her to
#she keeps wearing the uniform from the one school she got a girls uniform from
#and claiming to the administrators that she’s too tall for another
#desperately trying to be feminine and perfect
#hating her body and her strength
#until she’s chosen as a sailor senshi
#strong and feminine and beautiful
#and her life suddenly fits
#ami is the first person she tells and ami nods and listens and asks the right questions and offers a hug
#that night she stays up all night working on her laptop
#and by dawn every birth and school record in japan reflects makoto properly
#by the time she gets to juuban high the girls uniform is waiting for heri am here for trans girl mako
You know whenever my time at this store is done I’m gonna make a list of all the shit that happens because between our building and our customers nothing shocks me anymore.
Since Mako’s canonically the youngest of the Inners, I like to think there’s a moment where everyone’s like “shit, our mom friend is a baby” and they spend like a week trying to baby her. Usagi brings her candy and baked goods from Ikuko. Rei is constantly set to ~totally sage advice~ mode. Mina tries to cook for her. Ami is just more forthcoming with hugs and a little more bent on “now listen, take care of yourself.”
Mako insists they don’t have to and is kind of frustrated by some of it (Mina you’re going to burn this house down), but she’s also incredibly touched that they want to take care of her so badly.
