Summary: "Thirteen year old Pat Kane has short hair and a shorter temper, stands at five foot nothing and wants you to know about it. He plays hockey like he'll die if he can't, and if you have a problem with him, you have a problem with his whole team.
That's the way he's always wanted it."
Review: Patrick is so angry in this fic, it just feels honest. So often stories with transgender narrators become wrapped up in the issues surrounding being transgender, or try so very hard to make everything normal that they don’t take into account the differences in narrative that come along with this type of narrative.
Patrick in this story is brutally honest about what makes him who he is but never to the point that it interferes with the story.
