Summary
In which Adrien Agreste does not know how to be loved without hiding a part of himself away, and Luka Couffaine doesn't know how to love someone without opening his ribs for them. Adrien visits the Dupain-Cheng bakery every day, when he does, Luka is there waiting patiently. This is about give and take, about leaving behind cruel fathers, angry mothers and the things that drag behind you that you can't talk about.

The average person lives into their seventies, if they aren't unlucky. If you walk around with a curse on your hand meant to bring that number down and you're okay with it, what does it say about you. Are you more or less depressed if it's a god? Would you take it off if you were happier? Is there a way to know?
Reading this may cause anxiety. You might start seeing spirits. Or get a therapist.

Summary
Chloe Bourgeois is expected to be a bitch, to sneer at everything that walks past. And she is a bitch, sometimes. But she's also growing. Becoming more. Her family doesn't like it when she turns her chin down like she's less than, but she is, isn't she?
Adrien tells her that she doesn't have to be mean to protect herself, teaches her about coping mechanisms and the different ways abuse is seen—the things that nobody told her about growing up. Kagami doesn't believe her until she proves it, and it feels thrilling.
Someone has always needed to push her into change.

Warning: reading this may cause feelings of dissociation and restoration.
You will no longer view bullies or healing the same. Your concepts of "anger" and "growth" will forever be changed. You may think they're the same. Over 45% of people end up getting divorced, even after years of marriage. Are you parents together? Did they both want you after? Did they not?
Reading this may cause behavioral problems. You might start looking inward more. Or seeing ghosts.
