The protagonist is heavily autistic-coded, not confirmed to be, but her experiences could be triggering

My least favorite kind: eating and glugging done by the narcissist in the story. Talking around the food in the mouth.
Some scenes necessitated use of the mute button.

Constance/Charles are stated to be cousins.

Beyond that it is implied (but never confirmed) that their father was sexually abusing one or both of the girls, most likely Constance based on Merrycats protectiveness of her.

I’d say yes. The girls survive but they’re isolated from society. Constance will spend her life caring for her murderous sister and not be able to leave for fear of what merry could do.
