Hippie Parents: Both Maia's parents are basically this, into alternative education, easily flouting conventional gender roles and highly accepting of their kids' personalities, whatever they are. |

Outdoorsy Gal: As a child before coming out as nonbinary Maia would have been perceived as this, happily playing outdoors all the time, along with eir sister and neighbor kids. This applies to eir mother too, who's very much into outdoor activities. |

comment |
Ambiguous Gender: Maia is happy when other people are unsure of eir gender or e's been mistaken as a boy, as it suits em as nonbinary. E achieves this with androgynous clothing and hairstyles. However, it often doesn't work so e's called "she", but Maia's usually too shy to correct this. |

Pronoun Trouble |

comment |
Pronoun Trouble: Upon eir self-realization as nonbinary, Maia is unsure what pronouns e should use. Rejecting more standing ones nonbinary people often use like they/them, e settles on the rarer Spivak pronouns of e/em/eir (thus the previous). |

First Period Panic: Maia is quite dismayed after getting eir first period, at first trying to cover it up until e tells eir mom. It's also a continuing source of gender dysphoria for em. |

Gender-Blender Name: After eir mother says she'd originally planned Robin as Maia's name whatever eir sex, Maia gets taken with the idea, pondering several gender neutral names to use. None take though, so e remains Maia. |
