This is very powerful, especially the ending.

I’m in the military, thought it’d be something I could write about with some level of understanding.

the formal tone, the way it’s not polite to discuss someone in their presence .. how clipped and tight this person is – comes across really well.

Very good.

really liked this. nice take on the challenge :)

Good job! I liked how you made Fear. I can’t describe how exactly, but I truley loved this story! Thanks for entering!

The challenge deemed pertinent with this entry. I kinda liked the’ skulking’ made it deeper

Nice work!
