You’re taking the narative forward nicely with this piece, however, unlike THX 0477, I’d suggest that the tone is just a little bit too literal for my tastes.
Aye, this is probably a bit too literal: it does reflect my state of mind when I wrote it. Given that nobody else was taking this anywhere, I needed to get it moving. I’ve got a long way to go before I can fit emotion and movement into 1k…
You’ve really created an enchanting scene here. I’m still curious about the questions raised in the first chapter but you’re not in any hurry to answer them. From where I sit, that’s a good thing.
