Read this on a recommendation for the initial subtle trans rep

Loved the ambiguous ending where we don't actually find out any information about Sasha

let's pretend i did not just eat that up while in an online class...

i seriously need to read more stories about trans people and queer people in general. love, love, love them!

i refuse to elaborate on the erotica part, it was hot. that's all i have to say.

Hot, short, and sweet. Love to see a good and casual portrayal of a gay trans couple. I adore this artist's work!

“Just us two tonight.”

A really beautifully drawn (and explicit) queer comic about two men who keep meeting at a 24/7 gym. One of them is mysterious; the other is curious and compelled. I'm in love with the artist's style and just the way he draws body that make them feel real, like they have weight and impact. And all those moments where they lock eyes... Amazing.

Great short comic about two trans guys who meet at the gym, where they both are the only people training late at night.
The art is beautiful, expressive and moody, the story is cute and sexy, and there's a warmth and mystery to it that I loved.

You can buy the story for a pay-what-you-want price here.
