Nemonus 2007-09-27 ch 3,	abuse"At this point, everything stopped. Like completely stopped. There was a red light at every traffic intersection, huge lines at every supermarket, and waiting lists on every pre-order form. Metaphorically speaking, of course...Apparently, some audiences are actually willing to //accept// the fact that not everything in a story might realistically happen...It's very cool. You might want to look into it...everything (in the kitchen, at least) reverted to normal. You know-- the world hit control+Z." LOL! This story has a sort of liveliness to it. It's extremely strange, but very entertaining. lol, this is pretty brilliant. I won't quote lots of lines back to you, because I suppose giving a bunch of the story back isn't a very helpful review, but I like a lot of the quirky stuff in this.
Nemonus 2007-09-27 ch 2,	abuseYour use of second person works well and seems unique. Nice."(Ha! Now you people who skipped it are curious! My plan is working perfectly.)" LOL! Why, I must ask, are they all animals, and one is a painted toad? The ferret made sense as a narrator of a story about people, because then he'd be impartial...or maybe that only makes sense to me, as making them anthro animals makes sense and is artsy to you. More power to you. You missed the 'on' in "lesson" in the last sentence, but the story is entertaining.
Nemonus 2007-09-27 ch 1,	abuseInteresting. It's got some parts that don't fit, where the narrator seems not sure enough of himself or his ability to create humor--for example "began tailing his tell. Telling his tale. Whatever." falls a bit flat. I do like the rather soothing rhythm of the prose and, well the first four paragraphs are an amazing start to a silly/philosophical story. Clever ideas.
