It's insane that there are institutions out there like that, and that people let it happen. Makes me want to do something about it!

I started to cry.

I think I cried the first time I read this too.

I just know that I'll probably cry everytime I read this.

this is an interesting one-shot.
it might be nice to clear up to readers that this shit actually happened, how homosexuality was actually categorized as a mental disease and how terrible mental hospitals were back then.
a lot of people don't realize all the shit that has happened in the past and now. so spreading a little awareness would be a nice thing to do.

aw this is so sad. interesting topic, reminds me of a mental hospital, but not just for crazy people. Really makes you think about how horrible things could get. I like it. :)

this is beautiful
its really sad and depressing
but i love it that way, nice job

Wow, this was fantastic! Depressing and disturbing in all the right ways.
I applaud you.

Woah...

(before i start, i shall fave this)

So - do ths type of thing REALLY happen? Anyway/Otherwise, it was very powerful and imaginitive - It was brilliant how much detail you used & how you described 451 being slowly driven to insanity.

Two thumbs up, 5/5 Gold Stars, ext.

451. The temperature at which books burn.



[ilovethis]

I am, amazed. I love it. It's strange and a bit creepy. Sad, too.

I'm finaly reviewing. Whoa.

I love the last paragraph so fucking much.

I was so transfixed during this whole story (so much so that I sat through a long LORD OF THE RINGS HELL YEAH! song that I normally can't sit through... I forgot it was playing...).


It made a good story, but thinking that this actually is real is so...sick...that it almost makes me want to hate this story as much as I love it.


Another thing I hated (but in a good way) was how 451 was going along with it... (Not that he had much of a choice, though, right?) How he kept saying he wouldn't "fail" and how he...deserved it or whatever.


Wonderful job, my dear. I'm so jealous of your mad skills.


xo

Wow intresting...i liked it, its very strange though, good writing. keep up the good work

cool! upsetting, but really cool! a gay rehab? assholes. *angst*

That it. That's the end? I'm a little disappointed. You should continue the story. It could be really good. :)

I actually liked it, freaky and creepy as it is. I'm not into this kind of thing, but you write very well. :) I'm impressed.

i distantly remember you talking about writing this one, and then it came! and sat in my inbox for forever.

depressing and depressing-er. chemical castration. *sigh*

what did happen to 356 after he was 'reported'? *just a random musing thought, not necassarily asking for an answer*
