1.0

While it is beautifully written it was an exhausting read. A lot of the graphic elements felt like they were there just because and didn’t really offer anything additional to the plot. Torture po*n would be another way to describe it. 

Many people talk about how this wrecked them emotionally. I wanted my time back.
