Not even just a TV trope, but something from real life history. You had to have shady connections to survive as a transwoman in the past, because the only ways to transition required illegal medical work, and because simply existing was a crime. You either made those connections and built your own family with the other rejects and outcasts of society, or you died alone.

I'm not sure if Ticker is supposed to be a transwoman or just a flamboyant drag queen-esque man, but either way they're a very fitting addition to the Solaris that really helps drive home the fact that these are good people who are fighting for their lives against a system that sees them as criminals for simply trying to live freely.
