That was intense! She claims not to be a poet, but her words were more than lyrical in each end. Just the hints of what happened before was chilling because it's clear it was so much worse. The fact that the only colour is the red buttons to continue really added to ambient horror of it all too~

This is so good it nearly gave me chills. The fact that the only choice is at the end is brilliant. It says so much with so little. Fantastic work!

This was so good! The writing was done so poetically! I can only imagine what the crew saw before passing away. All the choices were of equal emphasis and I appreciated that a lot.

That was delightfully creepy! Each of the three ending choices were so interesting; I couldn't help but be curious and choose #3 first...

Wow. I am amazed. This is so amazing. Writing top notch, and it gives me the shivers to think about it. And yet it is beautiful. Damn.
