Wow, that was... amazing! I really, totally loved it. :] I enjoyed reading this because of the moral and also because I could relate to Penny, being a wise coward somewhat. You writing is beautiful and your ending really concluded the story very well. It was humorous and it makes you think about Avery's actions. A lot of writers can't do that so you should be proud. Shockingly, the romantic interest of my upcoming story titled A Wish's Worth is also named Avery! Haha. :] Who would've thunk?
