Character: Ludovic Fabre
Series: Ma vie en rose
Character Age: 7
Canon: "One X makes a boy, two X's make a girl." It's simple biology, but sometimes mistakes happen... and Ludovic will tell you that a big one happened when she was born. God sent her parents two X's, she explains, but one got lost on the way. Thus the baby who was meant to be a girl was born a boy instead.
Now seven years old, Ludo thinks it's high time the mistake was corrected. The trouble is that nobody agrees. To most people around her, the only mistake is in Ludovic's own view of herself, and this kid who loves to wear pretty dresses and dreams of marrying the boy next door needs to straighten out and learn a thing or two about gender. But nothing can change what Ludovic already knows: that she is a girl in every way but biologically. And as much as she loves her parents, she doesn't understand why they punish her for being who she's supposed to be. Luckily, she has a coping mechanism in her strong imagination. There she can live freely in the pink-tinted, lace-trimmed world of her ideals; while formulating explanations for problems in the real world and how they can be fixed. Though somewhat quiet, she's very capable of saying what's on her mind when she wants to, and is a well-meaning kid who likes people and wants to be liked. Now all she's waiting for is that missing X from heaven to find its way to where it belongs.

Stop it, Zombette. I know you need new clothes, but I already told you I can't give you my dress. Look, you can choose anything else from my luggage. My other clothes aren't as pretty, but at least they're not torn and covered with swamp goo. Now stop pulling on my dress, you'll tear it! I'm going to go and play by myself if you keep being mean, so let... GO!
... Your arm came off. I didn't know I could pull back that hard. I didn't mean to hurt you!... It's only your feelings that are hurt? Well, you hurt my feelings when you kept trying to steal my dress. And I wasn't even trying to steal your arm. I guess I did, though. Here, you can have it back... but you're right, an arm's not as easy as a dress to put back on.
Sorry, Zombette. You just wanted to look pretty, right? Like me. When I try to be pretty at home, people get upset. I'm not allowed to have my own dresses... this one really belongs to my sister. I just borrowed it for camp, and my parents don't know I did it. I have to give it back to my sister after camp before they find out, so I can't give it away to you. But wait, I know what we can do. If you promise to be nice, I'll help you ask other girls if they have an extra dress to give you. That way we can still be friends.
But if I help you look for a dress, will you help me look for something too? I need to find something called a genderswitch. The toucans told me about it, and now I know it's the key to what I've always been missing. A genderswitch is like a lightswitch, but instead of turning the light on and off when you flip it, it turns you into a boy or girl. Everyone has their own genderswitch hidden somewhere, but mine's always been on the wrong setting, so I need to fix it. I'll flip it from "Boy" to "Girl," and that'll send a signal to Heaven so God will give me my other X. And that will make me a girl! Then, when I'm a girl, my parents won't get mad at me anymore for wearing dresses. They'll buy me all the pretty dresses I want, and I'll bring them when I come back to camp next year and give one to you.
Okay, Zombette. We have a lot of looking to do, so let's start before we lose any more time. Summer camp won't last forever.
