!!!TW!!!

There are several painful/stressful deaths implied and one shown and described. There is no real blood but there is a substance with a resemblance to blood. There are also some implication of abuse/trauma/bullying! Be careful if any of this triggers you and if see something that could trigger someone I didn't mention tell me! My writing can be pretty dark, and I want to make sure everyone reading my work is safe!
