This is my first time doing a Greenapple fanfic. It's actually been a while since I've done a fanfic at all and my writing might be a little rusty, but I feel it's gotten better. But let's get into the storyline ^^ Mischievous Harlequin is in quite the dilemma. Seeing Pierrot with that lovesick expression doesn't help with the sick feeling in his stomach that he can't seem to shake. Especially when that lovesick expression isn't on him... For so long, he has wanted Pierrot to himself. Ever since they were kids, dammit. But now, there's MC in the way, and what should Harlequin do now...? KIll MC or just leave Pierrot be? TWs -this is a tfc fanfic, so there's going to be gore and sexual stuff -Harlequin is his own TW, so yeah -Mental health topics and mentions of internalized homophobia. There's also sort of self harm -Female Pierrot -Stalking and yandere characters -GREENAPPLE. Pierrot x Harlequin. If you don't like this ship, then go away -IF YOU SQUINT there's Jester x Ticket Taker. that's not the focus on this, so we most likely ain't doing that
