Summary
Caroline Murphy (not that anyone's ever heard her speak that name aloud) is a deeply closeted trans girl with a lot more secrets than just her name: she has a precarious plan, a backup plan, and a last-ditch fallback plan to escape the hellish situation she's been stuck in for as long as she can remember.
But what happens when everything that can go wrong, does?A semi-autobiographical tale of coming of age in the late '90s, fighting tooth and nail to survive and, for maybe the first time, really live.
Updates will be sporadic, and heavily depend on reader feedback.Part One of this story is going to be heavy on childhood trauma, ripped almost directly from my own childhood (the names and places have been changed to protect the innocent, but also to protect me from being tracked down and harmed further by the guilty). I double pinkie promise things get a lot fluffier starting with Part Two, which coincidentally is where creativity begins to outweigh memory in the word count, and I won't put anyone the least bit redeemable through anything they can't come back from.

Summary
Private First Class Gordon Cleary never met an opportunity he didn't royally screw up; from blowing up his relationship with the Cheer Captain to letting his temper cost him his football career to basically washing out of Marine Corps, he definitely has a pattern, and it's always someone else's fault!
But now, on shore leave in England from what will certainly be his last Float, his string of entitled choices just might be catching up...
