Someone mentioned this was a subversion of the typical kidnapping yandere troupe, and I would agree with that but I also wanna say I do appreciate the meta-conversation the author is having. People who have suffered abuse, whether it be physical, financial, or other, are shaped by that abuse and their relationships cannot escape that. Both characters know they are maladjusted and, though it's posed in in the extreme, the negotiation between two traumas has to happen in a relationship. Usually you'd just go to individual and couple's counseling for that in a relationship for that. It takes a lot of time and effort and inevitably people get hurt during the process, but that's what growing in a relationship is. But, I guess I'll take a kidnapping arc as well instead of Dr. Lou-Anne's professional services LMFAO
