Another Celestial sketch. This one commissioned by Xesta, but as a gift for a friend :)
The prompt was the DMAB and DFAB forms of the same character, Nova, illustrated with the theme of "gemini." I like what I came up with!
It means Designated Male/Female At Birth! I use it in place of terms like "male" or "female" when talking about bodies or body parts, which leaves room for trans and non-binary people.
For example, I'm trans and my gender is male, so my body is male, but I was designated female at birth. DFAB lets me describe my body without having to use terms like "female-bodied," which wouldn't be appropriate.
I hope that clears it up!

So much perfection there. Two sides of the same coin!
