wow. this. this was insane. this was so textural and rich and layered and constant and spoke through the characters through the screen through the me. this was just awesome to read, beautiful to look at, and i will most definitely be returning to peruse through this journey again.

"There is magic in the arduous work of wanting"
this was really wonderful. the prose is lovingly textured and feels so full of life, the sections of thought that are these hazy streams of consciousness are fascinating to Feel through... the want and desire to want is palpable, and the release of letting want manifest is so beautifully rendered... it cracked me open like a walnut. i'll hold this one in my heart, thank you for this lovely work
hi hi hiiiii thank you for playing with our dolls..... so glad to know the Want is so insane it cracks everyone open <3
