This is the first off your works that I've come across. A very exquisite and beautiful story. Clearly I have some catching up to do with the rest of your gallery.

I take it you found that entertaining!

I'm enamored with TristanHawthorne's thumbnail tags, but can't do them because they work against my personal aesthetic. Do you think people would vote them off if I put them in the tags directly...?

If they did, then certainly I would like to escort them into a Joke Sensitivity class. I feel the tags would add a bit of charm, but ultimately the decision is yours.

Now, excuse me while I fawn over you making my works canon in your universe...

I think you're right, so I added the specific content tags.

After several attempts at a different image for that part, I realized that particular piece of art was the best. In a metaphysical sense, it was always there, because I want to be open about the inputs and themes that make the setting. I'm leaving all other questions up to the reader. :D

I had failed to recognize the setting for this at first, since it's rather different from your last several stories. Really nice story, though based on your comments and prior stories, I assume it's a one-off (unfortunately for me). As I've said before though, I imagine I'm in the minority for preferring stories with regen/reform.

It's all the same setting, just different places and times. After a point, they make hard-science reformation technology universal, and many of the stories I write in the setting are placed then. I get some flak on these, because the conventional understanding is that reformation means no consequences. I wish I could say that these illustrate that there is consequences, but many people have read that as a flaw. In the stories without refabrication, a usual piece of feedback I get is that the predators are incredibly evil and mean. This is strange, because they're some of the most compassionate natural predators I can imagine.

The point is, the fatal/non-fatal aspect is divisive either way, and people take issue with both category of stories I write. Shucks! I suppose I'll just keep writing both. For what it matters, I have a bit more reformation stories planned than fatal ones.

Fun detail for you: I'm hiding information in the thumbnails. The computer-generated text implies a later era, so it's non-fatal.
