Probably go “congratulations! What pronouns do you use?” And that also opens the conversation of if other people know/who else knows and if they don’t want to be out to everyone yet, but also I can’t imagine anyone’s going to be offended by “oh cool which way” lol

i don’t wanna accidentally imply that this person could be a girl if they’re not, for example but if you haven’t know them since birth then maybe i just don’t know which way 😭😭
