So short but so lovely! I guess the story is what some people would consider a bit on the darker side, but overall it felt like a hug. Toadling was just so endearing!

Content Warnings

Moderate: Death, Suicide, Murder, Physical abuse, and Abandonment

Minor: Body horror, Confinement, Cursing, Animal cruelty, and Blood

There is some content that people could be sensitive to but overall it is very light and barely does more than mention the previously listed contents. I will say, as someone who is EXTREMELY sensitive to animal death/violence, it kind of goes out of the way to say that the animal lived and was ultimately okay. It also gives absolutely zero detail about what actually happened.
