Summary
From this prompt for the Criminal Minds Dark Fic Exchange:
"Spencer never told anyone he was sexually assulted while in prison - after getting out and starting a new relationship (or rekindling an old one) he's forced to confront what happened to him and acknowledge that he hasn't been coping in a healthy way" -

Summary
"He shrugged the exchange off and grabbed another coffee, his fifth that day his mind reminded him. He tried not to think about what he wished it was, if he didn't give it a name it wasn't real. Instead he focused on the slight bruising on his shoulder and tried not to smile, it was hard to admit but moments like that between him and regular assholes helped him feel more at ease with where his head was. If there was an excuse to be sad it felt less like there was an issue with him and more like his issues were justified. Spencer knew the figures, knew trauma could trigger mental illness and addiction but that some people didn’t have any trigger for their problems. Some people were just born with ghosts in their bones and ants in their veins."

Summary
Steve buys a little rundown farmhouse after his parents pass. He collects abandoned and stray animals, ones with disabilities and high medical needs, because he has both the funds and the time to give them the best life they can possibly have. Then, somehow, he starts collecting kids, too, working with the foster system to give them a place to learn and grow. Adults, however, aren't really his forte, but when Jim Hopper calls in a favour, Steve can't help but agree.
It turns out that Eddie Munson, a rockstar famous for both his music and hedonistic lifestyle, is going to be Steve's next rescue.
