I wanted to have at least a few of the main kids have a hard time after our little timeskip. Everyone's story still ends in a more or less positive way anyway, but showing that little bit of struggle/realism even now is pretty important to me. Finding a job is hard, and Ana's struggle here is almost too relatable (at least for me it is). Besides, it shows that even now, these kids are all be looking out for each other.
Also, I like to think Ana is living happily in her stealth life, and that Ryan has no idea exactly how much of a compliment his panel 4 remark was (technically, same from Maria). He just happened to land on exactly the right thing to say.
I imagine Ryan being a different layer of stealth, by the way. He has no qualms bringing up his middle school cheerleading days to show he's rooting for Ana who already knows about him, but I don't imagine him being overtly out besides his friend group unless it's absolutely necessary.
Just all different trans people living all different trans lives, you know? ^_^
