Absolutely swoon-worthy retelling of Pride and Prejudice with Oliver Bennet as a trans boy and Darcy as a gay boy. Oliver is not out in society or to his family so there is misgendering and deadnaming throughout, some intentional and some unintentional, but the romance is just as sweeping and swoony as the original and ultimately this is a story of familial acceptance and finding love without compromising who you really are. I absolutely melted at the dynamics between Oliver and Darcy, especially their moments alone as their true selves.
