   Summary

   Mary is stuck in a self-loathing spiral because she thinks she’s fucked up badly - and she’s not used to fucking up badly being something one can survive. She needs confession and catharsis. Who’s she going to to go to - a therapist? A priest? Nope. She’s going to seek out the type of specialist who actually can help her. (Spoiler alert: Irene does.)

   There's a surprise guest star cameo at the end.

   For both Femslash June and the ‘Humiliation’ square on my Seasons of Kink card.
