Painfully drawn out bi-awakening, with internalised and externalised homophobia. The "oh, actually we love each other" inciting event was over-powered for the story, and too quickly shrugged off in places. (see content warnings)
The writing overall is pretty solid, so I think this really just needed a stern beta-reader to make it great.
