   Summary

   First off' I'd like to state one thing: No, I am not writing this to romanticize Ivan's abuse towards Andrew in any way. Nor am I condoning anything that happens in the canon of Bad Things, or this work. This is a PIECE OF FICTION, which I am using as both a character analysis of Ivan along with a reflection of different types of toxicity. Psychology has always interested me, and in turn, I enjoy writing about psychology.

   Needless to say, abuse IS mentioned in this work, albeit not much. Suicide is mentioned a lot more. It is not for the faint of heart, thought I can only assume. Criticism is deeply appreciated, as I'm trying out a new style of formatting.
