I flipping loved this. I'm still waiting on you to write a novel; I would read the mess out of it. ;)

I didn't expect that ending! Nice use of words, and very well done.

Well, I foreshadow that there's obviously something very rough and animalistic, but the full extent of where that goes, no, the reader is purposefully left in the dark. Thanks for the compliments and reading.
