Hey so let's say we are making a trans spider hero.

First thing we probably have to change is the loss of a caring parental figure do to their failure. Many trans kids just don't have one of those, so instead, a peer makes perfect sense. Found family, yknow?

Now, it's a spider story so, despite having all this great power, our trans hero learns that it comes with great responsibility, obviously.

So, when our hero fails to save her trans peer, her found family, she dedicates herself to that responsibility.

How might that manifest?

Let's say when we see her world, through her eyes, it's literally coloured by the metaphorical colours a trans hero sees the world through.

So, when she has to "come out" to a family member, in a scene that represents both her strength in standing for who she is...

But also the vulnerability she puts herself in, a scene that is both empowering and yet also acknowledges the danger she faces, her whole world is bathed in the colours that represent her own identity

Hell, of we really want to get on the nose about it, perhaps the peer she failed to save died because they felt such a lack of support, such a lack of self worth, that they forced themselves into a dangerous transition with tragic consequences

Shame that in a world where people piss and shjit themselves on the internet for a month because a black person can be spidermqn, we won't be seeing a story like that for some time, huh?
