I almost quit reading after the first three paragraphs because of the flowery language, but thankfully, I stayed with it. Thanks!
It's only me fan-girling out over here. :)
Beautiful, beautiful story, and if I had any part in inspiring you to write it, then I'm more flattered than you could possibly imagine. You made lunchtime reading a LOT more interesting for me today, that's for sure.
Top-notch work, two thumbs up, five stars. Loved it from the first paragraph. :)

I tend toward gratuitous explicit sex and violence in most of my reading. Obviously, this isn't. Areala-chan's comment caught my eye and I gave it a look. So glad I did. Beautifully written.Great!
Like another comment said, I really struggled to get though the first few paragraphs as they were a bit much, but I'm so glad I stuck it out. Despite a few overwrought sentences (we all write them, its part of the process!) there were also some absolute diamonds in this piece. The description of just getting into a too hot bath was just divine. All the mundane details of mental health struggles were well managed and relatable.
I'm not sure that ending was wholly satisfying for me, but I still feel like this was time well spent. Keep writing!
Don't get me wrong - I really really appreciate your writing and your art and your story.... I'm just kind of not getting the whole "Halloween" theme.
