i probably would have enjoyed this a lot more if i read it before the duet but i already knew the plot twist the whole time so it felt quite repetitive and slow paced despite the length. it was written well though and gave a lot more insight into sibby's past. this is definitely pretty gory and i think it warrants checking the TWs before reading this but it's not necessary to read to enjoy the cat and mouse duet imo. this worked for me because sibby was a girl and the "cleansings" were usually done on men (and not on any woman on page unless i'm mistaken) but if that was switched i would probably find this a lot more uncomfortable.
