Well I'm glad for the accepting parents some of us have. I wish the world could be more tolerant, and I wish I could whisk you all away to a place of comfort and support (like an IRL version of this site) so you could be free.

Yeah. And I mean he’s not terrible. He doesn’t flip out if I bring up the acronym/word “LGBTQ+” but as a person of religion and conservative and judgy by nature, I’m not sure how much he’ll be able to support me.

My family isn't religious, but he doesn't support it. At all.

Oof… my family is sort of religious and they absolutely support and accept me for who I am (my mother is a born-again Christian and my father grew up Catholic but I'm fairly certain he's a Deist now). I recognize I am very lucky to have such loving parents.
If I could adopt you all, I would.

My mom is actually awesome, she was a tomboy growing up, and in that day and age, most of the tomboys were the lesbians tbh, at least where she lived. She’s very much okay with the gays. She knows I’m bi and she was totally cool with it. She was actually the one who said I shouldn’t tell my dad.

Well then I'll just half adopt you.
I'll share custody with your mother.

I am your new dad now, sport.

Can you be my new dad too? I'm in need of one

On another note, I got a lead in a really awesome play that only had 6 leads out of 32 people.

That's awesome!

Cool!

That's amazing Lex! I'm so happy!
You want to tell us about it?

It's the Addams Family musical, I got Granmama so I get to sell drugs!

And now, I'm going to sleep because I have to see an ex friend tommorow.

Good luck

That's so cool! I'm so proud of you Lex!

Tell us how it goes! I'm really interested!

That's really fucking awesome Lex!! I'm so proud!!

And I'm also hella proud of my childrens we are managing to hang in there, even in some of the worst situations. I'm so glad that you are you, and that you've made it this far. You can keep going, I know you all can. I believe in you all!

Before I sleep, is it bad that now I feel dysphoric with a name I choose?

Thanks dad(can I call you that now?)

That's awesome, Lex! Our local children's theatre did that musical two years ago, and one of my friends got the role of Fester. She has really thick and curly hair and had to put it back in a bald cap, and it was really hilarious…

That's right Lee, totally agree. I really commend all of you. On your grit. On your fortitude. On your pride. On being so wonderfully you! You're all so wonderfully unique abd delightfully special! Keep being yourselves! It truly is an honor to know all of you.

Before I sleep, is it bad that now I feel dysphoric with a name I choose?

Not at all. Sometimes it takes a while to get used to your chosen names, and other times it's just not the right name. Whenever you find a better name that fits how you feel, please do tell us!

Thanks dad(can I call you that now?)

Of course you can call me that, if you want to. I don't mind at all, kiddo.

Yeah… I know it's weird to ask but can hall call me either Spearmint (it's a nickname from Bee) or L (for the deathnot vibes)?
