   Summary

   Norman Jayden had retired from the FBI shortly after the Origami Killer case. He's now trying to recover from previous usage of triptocaine and learning to live a normal life once more. Though theres a terrible loneliness when your family is pretty much gone, and you have social anxiety. So maybe trying to befriend the cop you argued with so much might lift your spirits.

   **this fic is after the ending to Heavy Rain. So there WILL be spoilers previous to the game, including who the Origami Killer is. So if don't want to be spoiled, please finish the game before you read this fic! This fic is simply for fun and to sort of project specific emotions. Warnings for each chapter will be at the beginning notes. If I miss something or you feel like something should be tagged PLEASE notify me and I'll add it to the warnings as soon as possible.
