I haven't read the stories yet, but this is bound to be an exciting matchup.

I'm so excited for this one; my boyfriend supplied that prompt and I love it.

Both stories were good for different reasons:

"Better Be" for it's zen honesty and "Teeth" for it's audacity.

Teeth earned my vote for its deft use of description, especially of characters' faces.

So I closed it.

Congrats, DP. Good show.

(I think your massive, three-digit filesize might have scared a few off. Seven votes? Weak.)

Hmmm...too bad. Two good stories. Don't let the low vote total fool you.

 

edit: Alex Jones had hacked my profile.

Huh? Weird, I usually feel pretty confident going into a story by either of them expecting to enjoy it.

Thanks J.Y.. Great show on your part--really dug that tale. Yeah, it got away from me. Didn't mean for it to be so long. Sorry if that cost us readers. I do need a word limit.

@DP --- Didn't mean that in a blame-game way. [belated smiley]

Son of a Bitch. I thought I still had today to read and vote for these. Oh well, one more vote wouldn't change the outcome but I'd still love to read them for my own pleasure.
