George, almost the perfect bully's punching bag, finally meets the one person who will stand up for him. His bully's best friend. Even though George's life is in /shambles/, he's trying to find some comfort in his new...erm- friend. Unfortunately, he really can't just catch a break. Between his complicated relationship with his bully's best friend and the tragedies that occur as a result. Dream meets George, and immediately understands that something must be off. He wanted to make him feel better, and as he slowly makes more and more discoveries about George and his past, the worse it seems. Dream's in way over his head, not even considering the fact that he lives alone at 17 with his little sister to take care of. Sapnap also has issues. Every dream team member is traumatized and they all get their time to shine. Karl's here too. TW: self-harm, abuse, angst, bullying (there will be more in-depth TWs at the beginning of every chapter) DISCLAIMER: characters have nothing to do with the cc's, or even *really* their dsmp characters. this is basically angst & romance just using their names, which i *pretty* normal. It's very canon divergent. I did NOT create the art for the cover, just the text!!! Yo, just btw don't re-upload this ANYWHERE unless you reach out to me and i give permission (which I probably won't) DISCLAIMER 2: this is not high quality writing, but you probably already knew that. I apologize in advance #1 dsmp #4 dnf #1 karl #1 gnf

Steve Rogers was always known as the sick kid back in his day; his best friend, Bucky Barnes, never even seemed to catch the common cold. But things never happen the same way twice. This time, it's Bucky who's clinging onto life . . . *undergoing construction*
