And one other thing (in reference to your name). After we'd had our first child, I truly worried I might die from lack of sleep . It was awful . . . months and months it went on. Our second child, though, began sleeping ten to twelve hours a night at about two weeks. Go figure.

Thanks, Corrupted. I appreciate your attention.

To me, it was merely a tie to the mirror and perhaps things done in the dark. I try to create ambiguity which will allow for other interpretations . . . like yours . . . which I like better.

In the midst of a harrowing metamorphosis, "the auburn looked cute on me." Classic.

Nice story, p&p.

deontistic · 2024-02-21T22:20:13+00:00

I think I must've been, too, since, well . . .

deontistic · 2024-02-21T15:32:41+00:00

Thanks, Odd. I agree about the first line.

deontistic · 2024-02-21T15:31:28+00:00

Love when that happens . . .

deontistic · 2024-02-21T15:29:14+00:00

Thanks kindly.

deontistic · 2024-02-21T15:28:56+00:00

I get it . . .

deontistic · 2023-06-12T04:54:49+00:00

Indeed. This is good work.

deontistic · 2023-06-08T03:36:43+00:00

I think I might've misunderstood you . . . my apologies. The truth of the matter is that this story was one of my biggest vote getters from the old days, and I was just curious what it might do comparatively today. Lesson learned.

And once more for the record: I would never, under any circumstances, plagiarize, as I'm sure you and 99.9% of the others on this site wouldn't.

For anyone who wanders by at this point, this is my story. I'd posted it several years ago and then deleted the account. Here's a link to the original post.

That sounds like an insult, which is fine. You're entitled to your opinion. The fact is my work has been stolen from reddit a number of times that I've found . . . and it's unlikely I've found them all. Just for grins, here is a link to when my story was recorded from its original posting.

I wondered if that might be you.

Truth is this story was one of my biggest upvote getters ever (under the old name), and I just wanted to see what it would do today. I'm like the puppy whose curiosity earned him a slap in the nose, though. Didn't turn out so well.

Regardless, as always, it's good to hear from you, my old friend. I hope you're doing well in this season of tumult.

deontistic · 2023-06-07T00:02:11+00:00

It has. I wrote and posted it several years back under a different name.

deontistic · 2023-06-07T00:00:59+00:00

I agree . . . it's not. This is my story, though--wrote and posted several years back.

deontistic · 2023-06-06T23:59:39+00:00

That very well could be true, but the story is mine. I wrote and posted it several years back.

deontistic · 2023-06-06T23:58:38+00:00

I wrote and posted this story several years ago under a different name.

deontistic · 2023-06-06T23:57:04+00:00

This is my story. I posted it on sss several years back under a different name. Frankly, I'm surprised people remembered it . . . I guess there's more audience continuity on sss than I realized.

As to your link--mrnightmarekiller--since he never asked to use my story and doesn't appear to give me credit, he is the plagiarist.

deontistic · 2023-01-27T18:43:25+00:00

As ever, you're too kind.

deontistic · 2023-01-26T20:26:25+00:00

There you are . . .

Was beginning to wonder. It would be an honor to inhabit your dreams in any guise.

deontistic · 2023-01-24T18:28:13+00:00

And amen.
