Longest break yet, and not sure at what pace I'm going to continue. I'm not giving up on it.

Btw, have there been interface changes? I can't seem to edit my posts anymore.

Soul Dissipation (#1): Mother Hotaru Kitagawa's daughter is trying to separate a too big piece of meat with her chopsticks, but her grip is unusually loose and she cannot control the sticks. They almost slip from her hand. This shocks her to...

I could imagine hisao popping that as a what-if-question - Miya's reaction to such a question would be interesting... A what-if might work for Hisao, but that's too much like pretending to work on Miya. Even the straight line, said with genuine feeling, may be too much like pretending for Miya, tho...

Sorry for replying so late. I've read both replies days ago, but I'm currently a bit distracted. I'll probably not write anything today. I might tomorrow, but that means it'll lie around until next week to be edited, so no extension tomorrow (as I hoped). I think it'd be neat if, at some point, Hisa...

Rin 's route reflects the confusion in her head. There are so many options, and they all seem like good ideas, and they often have more relevance than you'd expect. :shock: Actually, most of the options seemed like terrible ideas to me. I was staring at the screen most of the time, seething with fr...

Wait what...? There's Hanako and a Penguin... *not getting joke* Sorry about that. It's a penguin from Mawaru Penguin Drum . It's too complicated to explain, especially since there's no direct link (probably) between the penguins and the child broiler, but... Well, the child broiler is a place wher...

There are a lot of good books that I just can't get into because the writing "voice" is just horribly bland. The Lord of the Rings , for instance. The Hobbit was a lot of fun to read, but Tolkien's other works tended to... drag. I felt the same way about both Hobbit and LotR . Life of Pi ...

For story-post navigation please refer to the index post . II. 9. It's Always Sex The taste of sleep is in his mouth. Time and space come trickling in. Hisao blinks. Dark. And then again: the knocking sound that woke him. He sits up, confused. Knocking, again. Not too loud, but insistent. He sits up...

This was very good. Nice short chapter. Good interactions. Miya is mysterious—shocking, I'm sure. But there are hints of what led to that mysteriousness. Maybe we'll learn more. I'm certainly looking forward to any more of this you write. Thanks. You will learn more about her backstory, though clea...

A wind is blowing, but it's driving the rain away from the door, so Miya doesn't get too wet. She is sitting...

Thanks. :) *** Btw, I've googled "Miyako Kitagawa" and found that there's a manga character of that name. Here . I don't know the manga, but the picture suggests a quite... different personality. :lol: (You also find fan-made role-play characters. If you leave out the "-ko", you'...

Am I the only one who thinks these cast the last few chapters in a bit of an ominous light? No, you're not. I think it's the light of a solitary firefly going around aimlessly in an open glass (where it may or may not drop dead). I never posted in this thread, did I? Loved the story. It addresses t...

Admittedly, this chapter seemed a little like filler to me, but that's just the effect of the suspense from the last chapter talking. It did provide a decent bit of exposition though. Rin already complements Miya rather well, so it was cool seeing that relation being taken advantage of. How ironic ...

Rin discounts the idea that Emi has developed a sudden interest in the class room door. Their classmates are are starting to go through that door, but that's not particularly interestin...

Thanks. The letter was one of the very first concepts to arise for this story; at that time I didn't even know exactly what Miya's condition would be (only that it had to be fatal and unpredictable).
