But when everything starts to go south, Fluttershy must face her inner demons and fight her own anxieties in a bid to save the project before it's even begun.

Ugh, that's what I get for rushing it. Will fix that now.
I love this couple.
I loved this. I appreciate the fact you didn't just make her transgendered. It seems that this side of gender dysphoria doesn't get as represented. It isn't always so simple as "being a boy trapped in a girl's body". For some people, it's really complicated, and I feel like you represented someone going through that very well.
You blended it into the plot of the story almost perfectly too. Making it the overarching problem hanging over the issue of the missing bird helped make the issue feel more personal. And you made Tree Hugger absolutely adorable. I don't actively ship these two, but I really enjoyed them here.

I'm lucky to be dating a non-binary person myself. I made sure to double check with them to ensure I was getting the representation right! Glad you enjoyed the story =3.
