-Complete- This follows the Christopher Nolan trilogy. TW: -mention of childhood trauma (not s/a) -violence, gore -death -talk about fears and some hallucinations produced by the Fear Toxin -yandere vibes -stalking -very little smut (I'm not the best at writing it) -mention of human trafficking, but nothing in depth, and Jonathan doesn't have anything to do with it.
