where's my get out of jail free card? sirenofodysseus February 10 2012, 21:30:28 UTC

...so, who is at the door? I'm really curious. I know you probably mean to leave us hanging honestly, but come on...you can't do that to me. ;) I really did get excited when I saw this genre, because the dystopia is probably one of my favorite genres to read...not write though, because I'm sure it's complex to write and plan.

Red John took over the United States? Yeah...I'm moving to Antartica. I'm sorry. I don't think I can handle working for a psychopath. :D

(This was an excellent read, and I absolutely loved it. These genre pieces are becoming more and more fun to read/write. :D)

why don't you take a chance card instead? tromana February 20 2012, 17:05:24 UTC

Haha, that was half the point. And yes I can do that to you. :p I was so excited to get the chance to write this one (and noir, those were the two genres I really wanted to have a go at) so yeah. I'd love to explore this dystopia verse a bit more, maybe. And the noir one, haha. Maybe one day, we'll see.

Yeah, I think Antartica would probably be safer than moving to Europe or Asia, for example. Once he's taken over the United States, it'd only be a matter of time before he targeted other more inhabitable western countries.

(I'm glad you're enjoying them. This is such an interesting/fun project!)

Seriously, a oneshot that ends there? Now you are just beinv mean :(

I would kinda love to read a longer story in this settinv, it has soooo much potential.

Loved this, really, I'm saving it.

Hee, I've always been quite mean with cliffhangers.

I would love to explore this setting a little more at some point, we'll see.

Thank you very much, by the way. :-)

Oh really? You ended it there? TRACIE. So mean. xD This was so good though!! More thoughts later lol.

tromana February 20 2012, 17:07:13 UTC

Mean is my middle name. (Not really, it's Louise.) I'm looking forward to hearing your more thoughts! Thank you. :D

Nooooooo!!! Well, I guess I'll have to finish this in my head then! I cant believe we'll never know who was at the door! This story's awesome anyways :) Really enjoyed reading it.

Glad you enjoyed it! Sometimes I really enjoy making cliffhangers to oneshots... I like expanding people's imaginations with the 'what if's' :-)
