Genuinely haunting and I mean it in a good way- the epilogue is really what hits for me.

Man this is just like watching a car crash. Actually, no, it's already a multi car pile up. But now they're on fire and exploding. Literally on fire by the end. In the end garv's kind of like the "worst person you knew just made a great point" meme; he is right, when he told everybody to cut the bullshit. This is an endpoint of eye-for-an-eye, punitive-based and disorganized quote-unquote "justice" systems. Love this.
Hi. I got #1 (SMFTTL) and got kind of hooked. Usually not much of a fan of this level of violence (at least inflicted intentionally, by people for people) in my erotica but wanted to take a dip and see what it's all about and I'm glad I did.
-Love the eventual breakdown of everyones psyches- I thought this mightve been a gimmicky "just torture porn" series so I'm glad to find out it wasn't.
-Sal and stone are iconic ngl; as the kids say, toxic yaoi. Stole the show for me.
-Also I just realized I've known both of your works before and haven't noticed that before; outlast is, as the kids say, goated. And so is durge.
-I found some of this a bit hotter than I expected which well. I don't know what that says about myself.
Cannot wait for Sortie to come out in its entirety; refraining from buying the individual books atm but I am *very* excited and I'm sure it'll be great. Sal is just mwah and I need to see him put through the wringer again.
I'll be putting more specific comments in the individual chapters- except for 4, which got taken down ): I suppose itchio just couldnt handle old man pussy. Sad. But I like it, and it's oddly comedic to me. Cannot begin to say how funny it was in AMF's opening sequence where I realize that the level and inapropriateness of the infodumping is literally me and half of my friend group. Like it got depicted as a Weird (TM) behavior but thats straight up my friend who lured guys on dates just to talk to them about microfossils. Actually now that I'm thinking about it it's obviously bad if any of them are Literally Me characters esp garv but tbh that moment is kinda relatable. Speaking of infodumping, I really love it when they started talking about the bone structure of the hand and whatnot like yeah. Though personally I think of the thumb as a finger, just a specialized one. Then again maybe, stones just too cockdrunk and also regular drunk atm for all those vernacular technicalities. I get it. If i have sals dick in front of me my iq would drop by at least one standard deviation.
Right off the bat I love your care towards the readers, the individual content warnings, and the tones.
The collection is beautiful and detailed and a microcosm of the pain and the overcoming and the road between that. I love it and I love your rage. Grieving oneself is always difficult, especially when you're trans- it's entangled and messy and these poems help sort through that.
And fuck that guy. I don't know if its a "spoiler" or not so i'll be vague but fuck him!!! I hope he rots!!!
