Kaos

Netflix's Kaos was a lot of fun! It's a Greek Mythology modern AU, with dark humour. Three humans are fated to cause the fall of the Gods.

It stars Jeff Goldblum as Zeus, David Thewlis as Hades, Billie Piper as Cassandra... Also, there are 3-headed dogs (yes, with an -s, that's not a typo) and a cute kitten. *pets*

There are several mlm characters, a major trans male character, and the Fates are played by trans/enby actors Suzy Eddie Izzard, Sam Buttery and Ché. Expect many deaths, but the Underworld is canon, and a good chunk of the story happens there, so I'll allow it.

Welcome to Boy.net by Lyda Morehouse

Welcome to Boy.net by Lyda Morehouse was a lot of fun! Two bounty hunters are hired to look for an AI.

Lucia used to be part of the ENForcers (Earth Nations Peacekeeping Force), which supposedly had only male members, so she had to desert in order to transition. She's cybernetically-enhanced and can therefore communicate through technological telepathy with Hawk.

This is established relationship f/f. Also, Lucia has PTSD and Hawk is dyslexic. There's an enby character who's deaf and uses Chinese Sign Language, as well as several mlm characters.
