5.0

Even though I added a hell of a lot of content warnings to this, it's still worth the read if you can make it through all of that. Also, it felt weird but I had to check "funny" for the tags, because the dark humour is strong in this one and sometimes it gets so hopeless that you have to laugh instead of cry.
