Faced with the life-long remembrance of a hell that he once had to endure, Sparrow now must navigate his normal present life as if every little thing doesn't put him on edge. Every day feels like clockwork, like he's been repeating the same days over and over again, repeating the same traumas and incidents that he was forced to go through.
The story jumps back and forth between chapters, showing the comparison of Sparrow's past life to his present one, and how they seem to clash until they finally catch up to one another.
Explicit mentions of unsavory things such as:
-Suicide
-Drugs
-Sex
-Gore
-Eating Disorders
-Self-Harm
-Kidnapping
-Torture
-Religious Guilt
New Chapters (hopefully) every Wednesday
