Your Dead Eyes - 2 Preview

"You have skillful hands." His husky voice was just a murmur in the vastness of the night. Azriel stared intensely at your nape; his amber eyes followed your body with devotion as you proudly displayed your sculptures.

Your chest warmed with the compliment, yet you felt your hands becoming sticky. Your ears captured the heavy sound of his steps, so different from the silent walk before. The heat of his body behind yours sent a shiver up your spine; turning your face to the side, you felt his warm breath reach your cheek.

Yde et Olive is a french narrative poem written in the thirteenth century. It’s a section of a larger cycle of poems that are sequels to the legend of Huon de Bordeaux, and may have been an adaptation of the myth of Iphis and Ianthe, though that isn’t known for certain. It hasn’t been studied much in English, but there’s a great translation by Mounawar Abbouchi here, along with analysis and in-depth translation discussion! It tells the story of Yde, the daughter of a king who disguises herself as a man to escape from her father and becomes a renowned knight before gaining the favor of a king and marrying his daughter, Olive. In a very unusual twist for this type of story, when Yde confesses the secret of her identity to Olive, Olive brushes her concerns off and vows that they will be happily married regardless of Yde’s biological gender. Like in the story of Iphis and Ianthe, their secret is found out and Yde is transformed into a man by divine intervention before he can be prosecuted for his transgression of gender.

it’s not an unusual story in itself (a young woman disguising herself as a man, doing brave deeds, and being transformed into a man so she can marry a woman in love with her is a familiar formula!), but its handling of Yde’s gender is striking, both in Olive’s blithe acceptance and in the combination of feminine and masculine language used to refer to Yde throughout. Stories of same-sex romance that end in transformations like this are often written off as heteronormative and of-their-time, and while obviously that’s a necessary lens to apply given the religious and social context Yde et Olive was written in, I don’t think that’s the end-all-be-all of what this story can be. The transformation allows this, a story from the 1200s, to contain both a sympathetically portrayed story of sapphic romance and a wonderful, nuanced tale of a transmasculine character who grows into himself through the story. Yes, this is applying a modern lens to it; we don’t know what the author of Yde et Olive intended when they wrote it and these aren’t terms they would have had or used. But regardless, in a time when being trans is day-to-day becoming more and more difficult in many parts of the world, I think it’s comforting to find glimpses of joy in stories from the past.

As I write YDE let me throw in some fun facts about the story:

Your Dead Eyes would actually be called ACOSP, a court of snow and pain and that title is definitely not ruled out 🙏🏻

The MC would be called Bryar, but that turns into a future Wattpad, here most people prefer Reader, right?

In my original idea, the Reader would not be blind, but as the future of the story allows this change, I wanted to make it difficult for myself and change the main character 😫

Bryar has long white hair with beautiful blue eyes, as Gojo from Jujutsu Kaisen knows? But I don't explicitly add this, I want you to have fun imagining Reader. But... In the future I will add something permanent to her appearance👀

Reader's personality was supposed to be more like Nesta's, but for some reason that didn't sit well with me in YDE so it's hard for me to connect with Reader now, as I am still conflicted with the person she is becoming.

And no, this isn't just to stall you until I finish the chapter ❤️🙌🏻

It’s the wlw (gender neutral) of it all...

[ID: A version of the Spiderman pointing meme - Four cartoon Spidermans stand in a circle and point at each other, with the implication being that they’re all shocked that they look the same. Each Spiderman is labelled with one of the following: Roman de Silence, Yde et Olive, Grisandole (Post-Vulgate), Iphis and Ianthe.]

On the one hand, these stories are less like a neat circle and more like multiply-overlapping venn diagrams that cover ideas like ‘female warrior’, ‘secret identity’, ‘wlw yearning’, ‘shitty father’, ‘transmasc gender vibes’, ‘physical transformation as divine intervention’, and ‘plopped back into traditional gender roles and married to the king’...

...but on the other hand, who am I, if not a maker of memes?
