Even though I was late, I couldn't leave before I'd finished the story. The protagonist came off believable, and the sect as very creepy indeed. One thing I'm not sure about is whether in the end, Emily just gave up and stays because of that, or whether her experience actually changed her outlook on her life. Plus, in the beginning, with Emily's comment about the weakness of men, and with the rule of the sisters, I expected you were going for an "alternate reality" maternalistic rule, but all the major players still seem to be male, so I was a little confused by that. But a very good story.Piratecat: What can I say? Oh, yeah: for someone using the ENworld Stealth skin, yellow is really hard to read. That's it as far as negative comments go, I guess. Another great entry, and something quite different. A joy to read. There are some points that go with the territory, such as the reveal of Rubber Ball's survival being quite neat – but that's how it'd be on a comics page, so while technically, that might be critiszed, I'm not sure whether it's actually a legitimate criticism. With Rubber Band and Loophole laughing at the Architect of Flesh, I think that's too eye-winkey for a "serious" comic book during the dramatic final confrontation: being held in the inescapable threshold of doom and actually laughing whole-heartedly. That's where you went with story over form, whereas in Rubber Band's survival, it's form over story – at least how I see it. But, as with Rodrigo (and your previous story), that is nit-picking on a very high level.Thank you, both, for making it a very close round, and giving the evil picture-giver and his flunkies something to sweat over.[/sblock]</blockquote>
