I feel like a history of SA is often shown excessively for shock factor, but this story handled it so much better. We could exactly how each little shared instance affected him deeply, be it through negligence, betrayal or fear etc. The implication of his experiences was enough to communicate everything without exploiting the visual of the complete act like some stories do.
It left room for this to be such a soft, sweet story. I’m sad I procrastinated reading it for so long.
