Oooooh. This is great. I really dark, queasy look at that first night in palace. I'm especially intrigued by Eugene's assessment that his new clothes are so impersonal and bland, and yet he says to burn the old ones. Loaded statement! Nicely done.

We're tied!

Oh I like this a lot, Ned! Great job.

This is terrific - intense. I love to laugh, but I do enjoy the darker stories, and this one touches on some painful stuff. You're so good at making small, personal moments full and deep and meaningful.

I like the contrast in this of wanting to rid himself, no--destroy--the clothes that were him, while claiming that the news ones aren't him, are bland, just like the room itself, which he views as someplace you'd only stop off in. It's all really interesting contrasts, and probably speaks volumes about his state of mind at the time. Rattled, drawn in two directions. Good stuff.

I was so caught up in Eugene's own personal narrative that when he spoke to Rapunzel at the end I was kinda thrown off - very nicely done. You always get inside his head so well.
