I thought of this too but I have a feeling if he found out she was female, he would perk right up and go the good genes route.
Ignis: "A woman stronger than me with unwavering dedication to family? Bear my children."
He may or may not throw her brother to the chopping block. He would probably be so enamored he would forgive the deceit since he admires her feelings of responsibility and all. He's already proven to be a man who doesn't stop to get what he wants.
Yeah I was considering that too, something like, “you’re a female? Great, now we can make our contract even more binding....with marriage. If you marry me I’ll even forgive you and your brothers deception.”.....
F*** man, that might happen. Although Ignis does need Blondie to be his wife for political stability. So idk, that might work in Selena’s favor if/when he finds out she’s a girl. Although, maybe he can he have multiple wives??? Oh dear.
Are we not gonna talk about the MASSIVE loophole Selena may or may not have accidentally created for herself? Her contract with Ignis is signed in her brothers name...grant it, it would require her to throw her brother under the bus. But she at least has a legal way out. And she’s stronger than Ignis. If it came down to it, she could take him on in a fight.
