Comments are like food: there are chips, there are salads, there are buffets. Everyone needs to eat, even immortals, and food is delicious. I eat comments and enjoy them much, as a baseline, and everything that is added from the baseline of "there is a comment" is a plus. Additional words beyond "it is good!" are highly welcome and appreciated, but words that are siblings to the appreciation genre are loved equally as much.

This is my way of saying, in a very roundabout and not-exercised way, "Bring it on!"

Hugs and wide hugs and bear hugs and loose side hugs,
Styg

P.S., AAAAAAAAAAA THANK THANK

This is a decidedly very different feel from most of your library of works Stygian, I really liked it. I love how modern it feels without specifically being about anything modern, kept to the outskirts of our narrator's unique life, only interacted with when needed to retrieve dreams. The concepts on display here are super imaginative to think about and are played with nicely in the story

I kinda would've liked the chair motif to have continued through the story, the seat on Chiron's boat, the seats in the post office, a chair in college friend's room, because it was really really strong at the beginning with the first mention of it and the hunter who died in a chair. That's my only gripe with it though, and I give it a very solid +1
