This story was 90% of the way there to being a tragic masterpiece, but then it just suddenly deus ex machinas it's way into a happy ending that doesn't really make sense. Also for some reason it decided to go with a weird tentacle hentai thing for a lot of the sex scenes, but hey, I don't judge. The relationships and characters are really well done though, and it's still worth a read. Trigger warnings: incest themes (guardian).
