Who is Peter Nureyev?
Sep. 10th, 2018 08:33 pm1. Who is Peter Nureyev?
Peter Nureyev is a master thief from the Penumbra Podcast, specifically the Juno Steel stories. His wikipedia describes him as a 'god-tier Disaster Gay' and there is no lie there.
2. What's the sixty second backstory? (spoilers)
Was raised to be a revolutionary and overthrow a dictatorial government! Left to strike out on his own after a difference in opinion re; collateral damage. Now works as a professional thief, sometimes world-saver. If this were D&D he'd play a rogue, chaotic good.
3. Wait, but he said one thing here and another thing there...
He's lying.
4. Is he named Peter Nureyev or Rex Glass?
He goes by Rex Glass. Like 'has only told one person in the last twenty years his name is Peter Nureyev' goes by Rex Glass. Does not show up in the planetary database of scary omniscient facial recognition under any known alias.
5. What's going on with his orientation/gender expression/etc etc?
One of the charming things about the podcasts is it envisions a future on Mars where people shrug vaguely at gender norms and keep walking. Most characters are queer. The protagonist, Juno Steel, has a male voice actor, uses he/him/his pronouns, and also is described by everyone who knows him as a lady. 'Buy the lady a drink?' 'Come along, ladies,' when he's working with his colleague Alessandra. It's just not an issue.
So Peter is unlikely to say he prefers 'men,' because he wouldn't necessarily sort the people he's attracted to along those lines, but he does operate down on the end of the spectrum that involves a more masculine gender expression.
He's open to more technical s&m threads with strictly female/feminine characters, but they're likely to be platonic; everyone's pants will stay on.
6. What's up with his PB?
It's a podcast, but for a while they had an official artist, the fabulous Mikaela Buckley. The podcast creators have stated her depiction of Peter is canon. His IC contact post uses her work.
