I am very sad that I wrote the most amazing piece I've ever written here in this window and the page timed out and I lost it all except the last paragraph. Which I think I'll post here until I write the story again from memory and add a few different twists to it. I'll leave it because it'll be like knowing the end of a story without knowing the story and that to me seems like a fitting prelude to the actual story. shoulder shrug
The last paragraph read:
