Fics like Tethered

They think they saved Mark Watney. But the person they pulled from the Martian surface is starving, broken, and no longer who they think they are. Marigold "Mari" Eileen Watney smuggled her transition into space—bioengineered hormones-and risked everything to be part of something bigger. Stranded for months, prioritizing her authenticity over her life, she held onto survival and identity by a thread, and now the crew, the world, and the media all expect the wrong hero to come home. How will the world react to spending billions of dollars saving someone they can't love?
