Impressive Dark Fic that attempts to do for Ryouga what The Bitter End did for Ranma in terms of character deconstruction. It doesn't quite manage those lofty heights, but it is darkly fascinating read in and of itself. Be warned it contains both strong language and some very graphic depictions of self harm. The only major quibble is that it portrays a very different picture of Ryouga's family than is generally accepted in order to give him an unneeded Freudian Excuse for his depression.
