'There is always some madness in love. But there is also some reason in madness.' - Friedrich Nietzsche
After losing his family, Alden had lost a lot of himself too. Years later he still hadn't been able to make himself whole again. Maybe he never will, but with a new foster family, a loving purple haired friend, and a crush he might finally act upon, Alden's life might finally be getting better.
That doesn't mean there are no more bad days, for him or the people around him, but maybe those bad days will become a little easier to get through.
