Damn, Bleak. This was, for lack of a better word, heavy. It's sad that this is a story that hit so close to home for you as you wrote. At the same time, though, I'm relieved and downright honored that our community is one with which you feel comfortable sharing such works.
Also, to everyone bashing the lack of a "real" game: you would all suck at handling visual novels.
Bleak, keep doing what you do. We've got your back.
