Fic Review: girl!Gabe/William

I read this story on Monday and really wanted to talk to someone about it. I've been wanting to talk about it off and on since then, which means it wasn't just a passing impulse. Telling the people I sent the link to, "I'm not even sure I like this whole story," was probably not the way to entice them to read it (although I'm not sure they would have anyway), so I thought, "Why not just make a post about it?"

The story is "Punk Rock Princess" by alex_boylove. It's always-a-girl!Gabe/William, and the author's summary says, "Gabriela Saporta isn't some pop princess. From Humble Beginnings to Midtown to Cobra Starship, she lives life her own way and damn the consequences."

My dream would be for you to go read the story and then come back here and talk with me about it.

The rest of this post contains spoilers for the story.
