Story 23: "Undone" by August

[emily-shore.livejournal.com]

Before introducing today's story, allow me to point out that yesterday's is languishing with no comments at all. You can do better, people!

Anyway, our selection for today was nominated by idella. It might be interesting to compare it with "Table for Two" (which we discussed a couple of days ago), given that both of them deal with questions of loss.

Title: Undone.

Thanks! Really appreciated this one, despite finding it immensely depressing. It's true what people said, part of the beauty of xf is the undefined spaces allowing for infinite interpretations. That said, it doesn't fully feel like xf to me without some tiny spark of humor, dark or otherwise. I can imagine this as one piece of the xf world but really only a tiny window, not the whole thing.
