I didn’t think it was possible for this one to destroy me more than the first, but here I am. Destroyed.
SO well done. I had to pace myself because the darkness and hate were so well written that I needed breaks. My heart is still aching for each of the characters, and for how desperately I just wanted them to listen to one another.
