I can see that. Modest’s appearance has always been “gender neutral monkey”. I tried for a more realistic appearance here (since this is based on the famous “why not both?” meme), but she doe look a little boyish.
I was thinking maybe how she could look in a couple more years? On the other hand, she’s not exactly human, so perhaps we shouldn’t expect a gender-recognizable phenotype. (Wait…that was clear as shed snakeskin, wasn’t it?)
Now that I think about it, people in our world consistently gender her as female. Witness the “Is she really your daughter?” scene at that one Pokemon event. “Yeah. Yeah, she is.” I guess as long as she doesn’t go all Thulsa Doom on us, we’re good right?
Things could get interesting if her hair takes exception to her sartorial choices. I mean, we’ve seen repeatedly that she and her hair aren’t always on the same page, right?
Sorry for the late comment. Didn’t we already go theough this one? I remember her saying that Zelda was more relatable than Mario, but I don’t remember the context.
*crowd cheers*
Thanks for recognizing this!
In this picture Modest looks more like an attractive young boy. Who may become an attractive guy or an attractive supervillain.

Her mother looked like an older teen as she aged, and the other still-humanoid hydra looked like women. But who knows?
Her hair is male so she reasonably could end up looking like a guy.

That wasn’t one of your choices, Modest… THAT WASN’T ONE OF YOUR CHOICES!
Where on Earth did she get that cute cut-off shirt? It’s so her~
It is, isn’t it?

Thats true

We did. I forgot until I posted this one.
I want to see Mario and Luigi in full plate armor. And What’s-his-Nose from Zelda skulking through a Home Depot.
Have changed her mind since http://modestmedusa.com/comic/ask-modest-medusa-34 ?
Yeah, kids change their minds a lot.
