New Heart on Sleeve

I've just posted what may be the most personal story I've ever written, given that my middle name is Trixie, my nickname ever since high school is Trickster, and my mother has dementia. There are other deep parallels I'd rather not discuss here.

Despite dementia, Jack Pot still remembers his son. Unfortunately, Trixie isn't her father's son anymore.

The first vote is a downvote, and it came faster than anypony could have read the story. Hopefully this story will get less transphobia hate than the previous one, or at least the comments will be more civil.

(It's a stand-alone but can be read as a sequel to the first one, which is why I've linked this blog to the first story.)

Ah, I'm sorry about your mother.
And good luck with this story, and that sleep.
(Sorry that I am not the best at knowing what to say in this sort of situation.)

There's an old expression that's appropriate here.

What's that they say about haters?

Finally have a use for the gif I made like ten years ago at https://imgur.com/5TLTe6D but no way to embed it. :/

It used to be on my DA account so I suspect I accidentally have two accounts there.
