I had to read this twice to fully develop my opinion because I had to make sure I knew what was going on. I mean that in the best way possible!
I really enjoyed the ambiguity of this piece—beginning to end. I’m still not sure what just fucking happened but somehow I went on a small ride with these two characters. Both of whom I met and left in 1040 characters (or less).
I thought the characters somehow seemed developed in a way that Jim Carver felt real and so did the narrator. In such a short amount of time I gained a sense of who the characters were and I established a little of a connection—with the narrator especially.
I think I’m gonna have to give this a hardy 5/5 because I thought the writing was perfect—it made me pay attention—and the story somehow got me sucked in. Phenomenal job! Color me impressed!
