nights like this, jean kirstein
𝐈𝐍 𝐖𝐇𝐈𝐂𝐇 . . . sophomore year of college holds things you never thought the universe would choose you to experience. you find yourself strolling this long and winding road without the one person who was supposed to guide you through everything, but with your chosen family-- a group of loud-mouthed friends who wouldn't dare let you lose yourself again.
Though, a new-found face with a troubled past has made his way into your life, and your friend group, and the constant weight of heavy baggage on his shoulders makes him hard to get to-- all he has to do is warm up to the idea of being loved.
𝐖𝐀𝐑𝐍𝐈𝐍𝐆
modern college au set at a real school, slowburn-ish,
HEAVY HEAVY drinking and use of drugs, explicit depictions of addiction, explicit sexual content, death, suicide, trauma, self-harm
fanon/canon characterization, dark content.
while in no way am I trying to glorify these things,
a lot of the experiences that I have put into this book
I have experienced myself-- and want to bring them to light.
is this a coping mechanism? maybe.
