i was going through, and i realized i hadn't commented on this,

though i read it a while ago.

and i guess it's because i didn't have anything really constructive to say then.

and i still don't. oops. (:

so maybe the world would have been better off if i just never said anything about this piece (or learned to review better).

but i think it's okay to say that i really like it.

it's really strong.

especially the ending. you write very well.
