-=Synopsis=-
Over four decades ago, a mysterious alien device appeared in orbit around the Earth. Despite all attempts to make contact or destroy the device, it remains unfazed. Now, the device conducts yearly bombardments of Earth's denizens, rewriting their DNA on a fundamental level, inverting their biological sexes for its own unknown purposes. This event has come to be colloquially known as the "Re-Gendering" by the masses, and it impacts thousands of people around the globe every year.

Kitridge "Kit" Carson has been living on the streets since he ran from his foster home when he was thirteen. Sure, when he got started it was a constant struggle for survival, but now he knew where to scrounge for meals, where to sleep somewhat safely, and he's even managed to make a friend. Life was pretty good, right? Still, something is always missing, something he can't quite put his finger on. As the anniversary of the forty-second annual Re-Gendering draws closer, Kit rises to start a new day like any other...
