Summary

Then an orphan named Annie comes into their lives, and she begins to see the cracks in Dick's armour. But will she be able to help him and protect him before he finally breaks?

Summary
It had been two years since anyone had seen or heard from Jonathan Crane. But when he returned, he barely seemed like the same man. Jervis Tetch has to navigate their friendship in an attempt to make it seem like what it was before. However, he soon realizes that friendship could change into something entirely different. Not that different was bad, though.
Or, in other words, this is the story of how the Mad Hatter and Scarecrow met (for the second time).
