Ben
Author’s Note: To my knowledge, this is the first fic that deals with trans issues in the Blindspot fandom. It’s set a few years after the end of the show, when Bethany is eleven years old, and it deals with Bee coming out as a transgender boy.
I probably haven’t done the subject much justice, but it was in my brain, so I pulled it out of there. This is probably as close to a parenting fic as I’ll ever write, and I have absolutely no experience being a parent, so it might suck…but I do know a fair amount about transgender issues, so at least that part is written with background knowledge. :D

Kurt traded concerned looks with Jane, Allie and Connor as their eleven-year-old daughter carefully carried a tray of coffee mugs into the room. Bethany had been a mess of nervous energy all day, and now that her grandparents had arrived—both Connor’s mother and Allie’s parents—she was determined to play the good host before she told them why she’d gathered them all together on a Saturday afternoon.
He got up and took the tray from his daughter before she tripped and sent mugs flying in all directions. “I got this, don’t worry.”
“Thanks, Dad,” Bethany said, gratefully releasing the tray. “It’s a lot heavier than I thought.”
Kurt placed the tray on the table, and Bethany darted in and began allocating everyone their coffee mugs. “Grandpa, yours is the red one. Granny and Grandma have the blue ones, because you guys both take your coffee the same. Mom, Connor, I used your usual mugs. Dad and Jane, yours are green. Does anyone want cookies, too?”
“We’re fine, Bee,” Jane said reassuringly. “How about you? I don’t see a drink for you here.”
“Oh, I don’t want one. I kinda feel like I’m gonna barf.”
