Thank you so much! This was so well written, and went in a very unexpected direction. Creepy and clever!

The prompt is actually one of my 'door' painting and your story is so much better than I could have hoped for.

Happy Halloween! And thank you again!

OK, I TOTALLY want to see this fleshed out (sorry, seriously no pun intended) as a series of stories. Wow. I was not expecting it to go in this direction and I freakin' LOVE it. Poor Napoleon!

Thank you! I'm happy you enjoyed the story:)

As for a series of storied, who knows?
As long as there's something left of Napoleon to gnaw on, anything's possible:D

I love how he's (naturally) upset and angry about this. Imagine dealing with that! How would he come to terms (if he ever can) with being, basically, a monster?

The scenes in the graveyard and the catacombs with the caretaker are deliciously creepy , but the sudden twist into a story that's completely unexpected is amazing. Really entertaining and thought provoking. I've never been so happy to be led astray :)

Thank you very much! I am very glad I was able to lead you astray:)

I got the idea right from the start and was worried it would be too outrageous a thing to do to Napoleon. But what the heck... it's Halloween! Then I re-wrote it to conceal what really happened until the end, so the reader was as surprised and Napoleon was. I'm glad that worked.

For such a seemingly mild mannered author, you have the most macabre imagination! I love it :D
