    I honestly didn't want to reply to this comment until the story was finished because I didn't trust myself to not give away the twist,
    but your analysis of Tim and his thought process is perfect and your knowledge of GA law is impressive

      I really wasn't expecting the gaslighting twist, but sometimes I forget just how manipulative/mentally/emotionally abusive people can be.

      There are very few good things I can say about the hellhole that is Atlanta. One of them is that there is actually a darn good queer support network for runaway kids that he could have tapped into for resources. I will say though, most kids of Tim's status would know about those resources in THEORY, but be far too ashamed to use them in fact.

        It's good to know that support network exists for those that are in the know. It's not like that everywhere. :(

          Yeah, I am sadly all too familiar with that. Atlanta is the center of Pride in the Southeast. Many middle schools will sneak in a bit about support networks.
