Really good chapter. Like where you left things with Ollie and the cliffhanger with Diana. Quite the turnaround for her.

This chapter was excellent. So nice to have a relatively low-key chapter that elaborates on a lot of preexisting dynamics and changes. Adam and Edy's scene especially affected me: I was never down the fundie rabbit hole, but learning to create a self that wasn't part of the Church I was raised in did take time and struggle.

This chapter is a perfect example of all the turning gears and moving parts in the story, like a clockwork chessboard, sliding our drama's players like pieces into their positions. The sly references to real-world events we, as readers, know are coming for the characters add a tension to the marshalling of the in-world forces, arranging themselves like battle-lines on a map. So much happens in this chapter, and yet it feels like a deep breath, drawn just before the scream. So, yeah. I liked it. 😉

The possibilities of Edy and Adam, the change in Frankie, Val finally getting to mourn her siblings that were killed in Stenordale, and finally last but not least Diana reaching out. Another amazing chapter full of all the little things that tie a few ends, open a few new directions, and bring us to the next act.

This chapter was fantastic! I really enjoyed the way you wrote Ollie here. His dialogue during his voice diary at the beginning felt very staccato and there's a sort of repetition to it that seems to present him as the rest of the basement sees him and as we've read him from their perspectives before, aggressive and kind of dim. Only to break that up with lines like "You don't even hurt me any more" and "And then you started locking me in the dark." or giving us pieces of his past before going back to the staccato. It was a really neat way to give him depth and show that Harmony was and is right, there is a human under there. The quick fade and equally quick build up as he loses consciousness and comes to had a panicked energy that kept it very tense, it was great. Also, him being the most chill and nicest I think we've ever seen him talking to Trev was great, especially at the end right after Harmony leaves. That was a really great moment. There were so many other fantastic moments too, Edy meeting with Adam, Indira's PoV, Apathy being in, Mel and Abby, the end. I had a great time reading it and I'm looking forward to reading what happens next!

Devoured this the second it came out. I’ve got to say Bethany retelling her own struggle at school and how she inadvertently sabotaged herself (or unintentionally, in her subconscious!) hit really close to home and is such a hard feeling to convey. Also the shame at sharing such a story even if it’s necessary and cathartic. Very terrified what comes next as this was a setting up chapter, but also need to know more!

I find Diana very interesting because she’s basically what Will was afraid of. Declan took a one-way trip to Catatonia, and someone else came out the other end. A completely different personality. And that raises questions about how she should be perceived. She remembers being Declan, but can she be held responsible for the things Declan did?
