Hmm, a very interesting story... Honestly, I really hadn't known what to expect. It was all dialogue! However, I did learn a lot about the characters through their words. I'm guessing the lack of description was on purpose.

Also, I'm very intrigued: this seems like an allegorical story. I haven't read very many of those before but I can't deny that I'm curious to see what happens next. Interesting stuff! I'm looking forward to seeing how the rest of the chapters turn out.

Oh wait! Oops, I just saw that this was a one-shot. Wow I feel like an idiot... Still, most of my previous comment holds true. Sorry about that!

No worries, Liz. That happens to me aaaall the time. :) Gotta start this reply with - you have no idea how much your comment means to me. You're absolutely right, I wanted to try something...unconventional. Describing characters with only their words was a challenge. I usually rely on a lot of standard description, so I was trying to do something a bit different. Glad you noticed. Also, at first I was only trying to make it...practical, so to say, but it did sort of turn out allegorical, didn't it? It's my first story of this type, so it's mostly experimental. I've got a few others like this planned, so you'll probably see some more soon. Again, your comments mean so much to me! This is actually the first serious review I've received for any story, especially one as weird as this one. So, thanks and I'm glad I managed to capture your interest. :)
