In the near future, anthropomorphic aliens have revealed themselves to humanity and have integrated into our society, as we have into theirs. Unfortunately, this future does not make it any easier for transgender people. Hera is an eighteen year old human trans girl suffering from BPD and has trouble getting herself to eat. She barely has the energy to get out of bed anymore, and her life feels dull. She joins a trade school, though, and hopes nobody finds out that she's trans. Things might end up like they did in highschool... (Small warning/spoiler, this story isn't going to remain as a school romance and drama type of deal for the entire thing. As hinted at early on in the story, the good relationships between humanity and other species are close to breaking. The apocalypse is near.)
