/and Ellie's sexy bad boy bio partner, Patch (who had a very big secret he’d been keeping).

ZeldaQueen: He was secretly a woman/

I have to write that. The story of a girl who falls for a ‘guy’ who seems like total bad boy, but in reality is actually a FtM transgender who is trying to express himself because he isn’t emotionally ready for the process of becoming who he is on the inside.
What follows is a story of discovery and understanding - although I’m a fantasy writer by default so it would be kind of tricky for me.

Perhaps if I throw the concept into my fantasy world setting it’ll work?

I kinda want a clock work doll girl in there for some reason-

Now it’s getting convoluted - people can feel free to adopt the story to their hearts content… (Except the clock work doll girl - she's MINE!)
Just write a quick - “Thank you my Overlord ~ he’ll know who he is!” at the start…

/I knew Patch was a fallen angel. That realization opened up endless possibilities – I could literally make him anything I wanted/

So you made him a creep! Brilliant little prat when you think about it - ain’t she! :)
