Love the nightmare opening. I’m getting Ring vibes. Very nice!

don’t you hate it when you’re in the middle of your work and you accidentally make a blood pact with an eldritch evil?…
interesting! I honestly wasn’t expecting supernatural aspects! very intrigued now. is any of this actually happening? or is our poor girl just spiraling mentally?
another wonderful line! how can emptiness feel so heavy? great prose.

thank you! wonderfully kind words. I think all of my stories are about real people trying to overcome these nearly insurmountable odds or systems. even more fantasy stories like Songstress and Salaryman Familiar. they’re always character dramas first and foremost. I think that helps me create some intriguing characters and stories. but yes I view this story as cautionary critique of how we as cultures and individuals can just drift through life, tolerating suffering that we see. we’re all conditioned to tolerate it, until it boils up in us or someone around us. I’m glad it inspired you! (I’ll shamelessly plug Songstress again if you ever want to get back to it because so much of Sayane’s journey is about finally finding her creative voice and self worth). thank you for the read and comments! I’m looking forward to Unravel!
printer fatality!
the small comfort of lives lost and souls crushed but at least one asshole is about to get his shit wrecked.
that would be awesome. I think all of my stuff has a certain cinematic feel to it, so I imagined it as a very somber movie in some ways. but I love Clair Obscure so I’ll take that too lol!
or, an avatar reference: flame-oh hot man!
nice! yeah this moment for Sayane was actually another idea I had of a blind person slowly becoming trapped in their apartment as it shifts. I didn’t think I could make a whole story out of it; but the idea was terrifying enough that I knew I wanted to incorporate it.

it’s terrible but I’m really proud of the character detail that she is actually afraid of the dark, and all of the quiet terror that implies. years of being bumped into, tripping on onseen pieces of jutting concrete, of laying naked and bracing for being entered by a slovenly, wretched customer. it’s enough to terrify anyone, much less someone who can never see it coming.
yep! there’s a real, grounded terror, beyond the surreal stuff, in watching someone you care about spiral into oblivion, no matter what you do.
thanks… I think?😭
yep. there’s something very horrifying and tragic in watching someone you care about falling into the abyss, and fearing they won’t make it out no matter what you say or do. for poor Masaru and Sayane, it’s like they just met too late. things maybe could have been different if they’d just dared to speak to one another sooner.
thigh moment!
