Notes:
Important things to note for this story:
✧ Takes place during the Vision Hunt Decree, an indeterminate amount of time before the Traveller's arrival in Inazuma. In my mind, the Decree has been going on for several months by the time this story takes place.
✧ Itto still has his Vision!
✧ The way I have chosen to depict trauma/mental illness/PTSD is heavy with symbolism/imagery, and so it might not be the most realistic representation. I've done my best to be respectful, however if it at all problematic, please let me know!
✧ I like to write with a lot of symbolism; keep an eye out for it! However, I also like to obfuscate, to my detriment. So if it's too obtuse, I'm happy to answer questions and clarify (without spoiling too much, of course).
✧ This story is very Canon Compliant and does not diverge from the known events of the story too much. There are some small headcanons of mine I have injected in there, but they are minor!
✧ There will be both a good and a bad ending, because I want to have my cake and eat it, with a cup of tea too, if you don't mind. I will warn you now, the bad ending will contain a Character Death, while the good ending will contain an explicit consensual sex scene. However, both endings will be posted and tagged separately, so you can pick whichever you prefer~
✧ Author rambles are in the end notes! ...Hm? What do you mean I'm already rambling?
