And that was the end everyone.
I really liked this book, I don't get why people were bashing it at the start of the previous thread.

it was a nice read, definitely didn't go how I was expecting

It's late in my area, so I could've been looking up porn and playing video games until the sun rise like always, but this was too good to pass up.

Thanks a tonne for the story time, loved it.

Couldn't sleep and this was a nice read. Thanks user.

Oh, I get it now. The evil house spirit of this Lucknow place has invaded Seconds and is causing trouble. Transplanted through the cauldron found in the walls, and that's why Lis was so freaked out about it.

Thanks for the storytime, OP. Screw the haters in that last thread whining about nothing happening. This was sweet and charming!

Dick move, evil entity.

She allowed it to gradually corrupt reality despite everything all for the small price of the heart of one mortal and it's not grateful enough to let her have that?

HA!

>Evil entity isn't actually evil, just misunderstood
Lame.

>don't abuse the mushrooms, there are RURUS
>lol jk everything bad that happens is because of an unrelated spirit

>tiny *chomp*
cute

yeah wtf, this was a cool short story with charming art

This was great, thank you for posting!

I really wouldn't have gotten of my ass to read it any other way, but happy I did

Yeah, was hoping there were more to why this was all happening than it just being XANA getting stronger through resets/world-hops. Plus it just means there's a bunch of dead/missing Katies in all the worlds she took over. But stuff is okay now I guess because she's not a complete dick?

>I don't get why people were bashing it at the start of the previous thread.
To be fair, the beginning felt very slow.

>Stephen Stills and his boyfriend

Personally I think the end kind of goes against everything else in the story.

K and Andrew clearly have some deep seated issues that they need to work out together, but K sends him off with a recommendation and somehow that just mends everything? Like we don't even touch how long she spent cheating on Max with him, and the fact that they're alternate timelines doesn't excuse it, they were still decisions that she made and remembers that are just swept under the rug. She pretty much used them both for an extended period of time and got away with it.

We spend the vast majority of the book going into how K and Max just don't work out together, and then in the end they somehow end up together anyway because I guess we need a perfect ending and that's gotta be it? It kind of comes off like she didn't learn anything from the entire experience.
