Chosen family and friends mean the world to everyone, right? When Y/n realizes that a lot of his own have been hiding their own issues too, he isn't sure whether to be annoyed or concerned. Y/n's anxiety has led him to think some crazy things too, after all. With the power of love and friendship, almost anything is fixable! Or so he's heard... he's a little new to this. There's a lot of play with twisted tropes in this book got a few things I couldn't get to in the original, like our canonical aroace character figuring that out (: I WILL NOT JUST DROP THESE THEMES W/O WARNING: -sexual assault or any direct discussion of it -direct descriptions of self harm -suicidal thoughts -child/partner abuse (it's only in flashbacks or memories!) there is no major character death Additional disclaimer: while I am not trans, many characters are. I'm well educated on the community, and identified as trans for years. Read full T&C for more info

COMPLETE. READ THE SEQUEL IF YOU LIKE THIS BOOK (it's called "Don't Call me That", check my profile) Real Description: When Y/N has the chance to become friends with some of his heroes, being closeted really starts to suck. Dealing with day to day dysphoria, anxiety, as well as his favorite people misgendering him all proves to be almost too much... but what if he isn't the only one struggling? !!Not an x reader at all! Platonic! We have had #1 on the quite a few tags at some points that's so cool!
