"Heaven" by bugsfic packs a lot of story into a very small space.

CATEGORY: V, A

"Heaven" through the wonder of the Wayback Machine but also available at Gossamer. And maybe here at her journal?

Well, I think I am stuck for words. This is the type of story that makes me feel entirely inadequate as I have not a clue what it is about. I am presuming childbirth, but don't get the insects, nor the spiders, nor the S7 timeline. So am presuming it is metaphorical for something else.

I am not sure if protocol requires us not to say anything about a story unless we have something positive to say about it - at least straight off the bat as it were - but I would struggle. This nightmarish scenario, the overblown description of pain and virtual torture, the murkiness of the meaning, the confusion about what is actually happening just make me lose patience ultimately.

So am really looking forward to someone (Amyhit?) explaining it all to me. So that I can feel like a dunce. So that I might actually appreciate it properly.
