I know, and I'm so sorry. That's kind of what inspired this, well, the whole effect of child abuse and how much I fucking loathe it. And, in this case, the little rag doll is, well, us. All of us here at FicWad, because we know in our hearts that Ari loved us.
Sorry if this caused any harm to you, by the way. I just really, really want people to know how badly child abuse can affect most people. I wasn't abused of course, but I've seen the way it's affected them.
