When Flynn meets Tanya at a table-top RPG campaign, his first impression is that she's the kind of girl he'd like to get to know. He does just that; however, not only does he discover they make a great pair, but he also learns she isn't really Tanya.<br><br>She's Tony, a pre-treatment transgender man.<br><br>Despite being a tried-and-true heterosexual, Flynn chooses to stick with Tony anyway and supports him during transition. Their initial one night stand turns into a wild and dedicated relationship. They -- and their RPG characters -- face many challenges. Flynn and Tony seem made for each other, the sex is more than incredible, and Flynn is willing to brave it out, but a Willpower check isn't enough to rid him of his crippling doubts. Will the love they share be enough to overcome the antagonism they face in the real world?

Change for the Better

The shots themselves were unnerving at first, for both of them. Flynn came over late one night when Tanya had to give one to herself. First, Tanya sterilized a patch of skin on her leg, then she slapped it a few times to prep her nerves and blood vessels, then she jabbed the small syringe into her thigh to inject her hormones.
