I've never seen this strip before. Is it okay to ask which
character is trans, and how do you know? Previous strips? Some
kind of coding that I wouldn't have noticed? All I found weird
(other than the characters breaking the fourth wall, which
happens a lot in webcomics) was that the reindeer(?) seems to
have their face on sideways.

She's a whitetail, not a reindeer. Still wondering which character is

Ha! I'm not in the habit of thinking about deer's secondary sex characteristics, but now that you brought it up, I do remember that
reindeer are the only ones where all have antlers.
