Elijah Reeding (“Eli”) is a 21 year old lion who majors in agriculture (he’s considering switching to geology! or… political science?). He works part time at a library and occasionally volunteers at a local farm. He’s big into hiking and mountain biking and likes to curl up with a good book. Self-identified beer snob who spends a lot of time at hipster bars and coffee shops.Eli was homeschooled at Eagle’s Wing Academy with six other church families (including Mary Grace’s!), until 6th grade, when his dad’s job made him and his family move to another state. He spent the rest of his education at a tiny K-12 Christian school in the South because his mom got a job teaching there to deal with the cost of supporting their tight-knit family of 7. He spent most of this time as the vice president of his school’s pro-life club! In his junior year of high school, he started seriously doubting everything he’d been brought up with, and it was then he realized he was trans. He deconverted in the last semester of his senior year after months of trying to be a Hip Liberal Christian™, and spent almost three years at community college, saving up to move out while volunteering at church and faking his way through Tuesday night Bible studies.He told his parents he’d gotten a full ride scholarship to an out-of-state university and left home. They still don’t know the truth about him. -- source link
