  Summary

  Song fic/vent fic with playlist + tumblr version linked!!

  Teens that are complete opposites with only their mental state in common, loser!Rodrick and populargirl!Reader meet unexpectedly and have to navigate their ways through angsty teenage feelings, self harm, disorders and abuse and unresolved romantic (and obviously sexual) tension. Everything through to quarterback-boyfriends, almost dying in a bathroom, breaking into the school and popping molly while downing alcohol whilst covered in glitter—welcome to THE fic-representation of 2000s suicidal teens™.

  **A lot of the events in this story have actually happened from personal experience, or are heavily inspired but are exaggerated for story-telling purposes. If this makes you uncomfortable, do not read. Rodrick is as close as he gets to cannon.**
