Thanks! This was really just a test to make sure the recent list was working (it is), but this idea has been swimming around in my head for a while, so I figure it made for a fine test.
I think this is a very good beginning to a story, but it’s a bit weaker as a ficly which stands on its own – where I think a twist is what’s needed for a fantastic piece.
Nonetheless, a nice premise and a good piece of writing!
People seemed to think this needed more story behind it. So, I threw on a sequel, just a scene that popped into my head after reading your bit. I’m glad it wound up on the active list, or I might have missed it!
