Hey i read it and really liked it. :) Regarding Rei, in my experience, its not uncommon for queer folk to consider identifying as trans before deciding theyre cis-gay. Although ive only ever met cis lesbians who have this experience. Theyll show up to our support group once and then decide its not for them. *shrug*
thanks so much for reading! it's great to hear someone elses experience and thoughts. in that way you describe, of considering and then realizing they're cis-gay, i did enjoy rei's route. though i have trouble picking apart, the face he feels like an individual struggling for his own identity is something i felt was a great positive. we definitely need more narratives of exploration regarding gender and sexuality!
it finally begins... now that i'm free of any other obligations, it's time to finally get this done! i hope to have it finished in a couple weeks. the construction page should help give me extra motivation
