What can I say? I love sarcastic villains!!
this fanfic isn't going to excuse everything Maven or the Darkling did but it will dive deep into how abuse/neglect affects ppl
I've been abused literally my whole life (college was my escape) which is why I can relate to Maven
anyways they're both precious and deserve some love
Also I Wrote This While Listening to Taylor Swift's Music
Lastly this has two homosexual couples so kindly fck off if you're homophobic!
