Definitely disturbing imagery. You really had me going there. Uh. Go you?

A well done, if scary as shit, vignette.

Thank you. The idea came easy, but the story wasn't the easiest thing to write, so while it's a departure from what I usually write, I'm glad it worked.

Thank you. I'm glad the story worked for you; it was a big departure for me, and I was rather nervous posting it.
