I'm not sure of the author's intents, but to me I thought Irene was meant to be taken as the stereotypical 'well meaning ally' type character that thought she was a great ally but still had a lot to learn and unlearn, and I saw it as poking fun at that.

I haven't seen a character like Angel represented positively/ romantically in media hardly ever. I found myself relating so much to xir personality, feelings, and reactions and it made me a bit emotional to see xir traits and behaviours accepted and valued, as I've gotten to used to them being things that (if i don't mask them enough,) many people view as decreasing my 'value' as a person, and not as things someone could actually appreciate and respect. :') thank u
