Uh oh, it was definitely some timing to catch up on this story in time for chapter 5 :D
I'm really enjoying this, though! I like how the characters feel like their own fully-fledged people, and how there's no neat solution for the core conflict. I also especially love the way you're handling the mental health aspects!
Thank you for your hard work, I look forward to the next chapter! (Might jump on the Patreon one of these days, tbh)
