I rarely comment on stories - but what a beautifully written, delicate story! I really felt the emotions of a time of ending/ chnahe and felt Elliott's confliction and confusion - well done!
I love the Sphere! I think it's one of the most original and well written stories on this site! I've been hooked since the beginning, and like WB its not really my genre, but I think you've done it in a very interesting way
