Summary:

He must have been wonderful, before.




This is strange and wonderful and absolutely horrible. Bring a handkerchief. Bring a pack.

And if you know me at all, the above should absolutely be considered a recommendation. Also it's just about all I can say without spoiling the whole thing. But if this one stays and haunts you for a long time after, don't tell me I didn't warn you.

Recced for a beautiful telling of the terrible thing that's the aftermath of good intentions.
