Nathan
Trans boy
Asexual
Panromantic
Realized in middle school that he was trans after finding out he was Pan
Told his parents right away
They were super supportive and helped him start transitioning
Is very self concisous about looking “right”
Very open about his identity
Lost a lot of friend when he came out
Is bullied for being trans
Ricardo
Gay
Compulsory heterosexuality and interilized homophobia(tm)
Feels predatory for so much as looking at another guy
Has put off realizing his sexuality
Scared to upset his parents
Accidentally outed himself with a joke once and never talked to anyone who heard ever again
Nathan finds out and helps him through his discovery
Nathan gets him to tell Jake and they all work through it together
They become his support system
Jake
Fin-grayromantic
Nonbinary/genderqueer
They/them she/her or he/him
Reclaims queer to describe themselves when they don’t feel like explaining
Not very open about it but still has a lot of pride
Never discouraged despite people saying their orientation doesn’t exist or that they’re really just a straight dude
They realized they weren’t straight when Nathan came out to them in middle school
Realized they were genderqueer in freshman year
Likes how lose their gender label is because it’s one of the only things that isn’t super construct/specific in their life
