Yeah.   HELL yeah.


The ending was set up well.  Protagonist turns to antagonist.

I didn't know how it was going to end until I reached that paragraph. 

Really?  Re-reading it I thought I saw fore-shadowing.  Stunning writing - literally, I'm lost for words..

Let's just say I was examining my life as I wrote it.  I've been a bitter and angry old man since I was 19.  Maybe it's time to re-examine that.

Some wise-ass once told me I ought to always be examining how I think/feel/act. :)

Keeps the backlog from building up if you keep up with it.  Like that pile of dishes in the sink.

If Luna was a furry, she'd sex humans and scream "BEASTIALITY!" at the top of her lungs at inopportune times.

I like the Luna one. She is a good one.

Never trust a bald wise man.

Good thing this guy just shaved, and had a mustache. These qualities disqualify anyone from the "bald" descriptor.

A Tucsonite is like a Christian in several important ways.  For one thing, they believe what they say about their god in the most literal, straightfaced way possible.  For another, they both know their god can hear them.  The difference between the two, however, is quite vast in terms of their relationship with their god; Christians believe in His benevolence, but Tucsonites KNOW of The City's spite and hate.

Damn good, Roger. Also, pretty fuckin' creepy. The 1992 door was really nice imagery.

Wow.  I take a day off and I miss this.  Great job, couldn't stop reading it!  :mittens: 

I've caught dreams with these sorts of hidden spaces sometimes.  Like the one where I realize the old apartment had that garage space I never really ever used, but could have set up a proper workshop in, or finding the door to the loft in the current place.  They get me thinking about what I could have done in the old spaces if I just had, well, more SPACE.  That's not what's really holding me back though.  The clutter, the stuff, it can all GO anytime.  I just need the will to push it all off, organize the space for what I want to accomplish.

Anyone ever think about how Richter inhabits the same reality as you and just scream and scream and scream, but in a good way?   :lulz:

Yeah, man. I got doors like that too. Maybe it's time I stop sliding food-trays into them.

This is awesome, Rog. My ADD brain sat still for this one.

It's my personal favorite.  I have to panelize this shit.

After I panelize 8 million other things, starting with the nessie stuff.
