[quote=Reaper0001]How quaint. Can't wait to read it.
Any feedback on my story? I'm wondering if I should write Darkwing, though I don't have much free time.[/quote]
Your story was short, but it was a tantalizing tidbit of what could be a greater background. I loved everything up to the moment where the guy said his name. I mean, Darkwing's all great and everything, but the name just didn't seem to fit the moment. I was expecting something latin or something german... you know? scary languages. Names aside, I loved the way suspense was built up so effectively in such a short amount of time. And the way the hemlet and the face were contrasted...beautiful.
Btw, any critique on mine? :P
On to other critiques.
I loved Entry 58. It's a morbid, yet scarily true reflection of society, like so many of Cow Face's past pieces. But the way the very last line grabbed me made me want to simultaneously laugh, cry, and stare blankly in open shock. "Why did they have to be blue?" And he's called a demon for that...the irony bites.
Shreder's poem, I am the one who thrives in the darkness, was short, but sweet. There are some familiar themes though...angels and darkness seem to become ever more closely linked by the day...as we saw in A Heart of Darkness. At least, that's what I interpreted the black feathers to mean. At the stanza refering to the moonlight, I almost thought you were referencing this whole thing to night rather than darkness, but the overall theme seems to head in a different direction. Well done.
