(kurtbastian text fic/season three reimagining)

Chapter 1: you deserve better

Notes:

Hi all! This fic is honestly just a vent fic that was meant to just be practice to keep up writing but ended up as a whole multi-chapter fic as my life started to fall apart. So a lot of it may be somewhat OOC and heavy on the vent. If you’ll bare with I hope you can enjoy!
