    Hi! sorry that part two’s been taking so long, I didn’t eralize how much i needed to change for the benefit of the storyline…🤦‍♀️ And… it’s not easy being a professional procrastinator.

    oh I know it lol!! Professional procrastinating and constant redrafting.

    Ooh, what tragic symbolism did you set up for?

    Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhh a lot…? (nix almost cried, I did cry, a lot…😭😭😭)

    Lol, I figured out that my MC’s scar symbolizes choice, and I learned the story behind that aaaaaaaand the story behind why he compulsively tells the truth in every situation even though he’s very very good at acting and *sobs hysterically* I can’t tell any more or I’ll give a lot of spoilers but I’m dying!!!

    Yeah, the over-analysis of symbolism in books i can understand, but it’s still frustrating. *looking back on my Midsummer Night’s dream essay on the nature of reality that garnered one of the lowest grades it ever got and I hated writing*. Part 2 is a lot longer than Ice because I haven’t tightened up the prose and dialogue very much, and I was trying to convey a lot of info.

    Haha…nobody needs to figure out what Shakespeare is actually saying in Old English WOW like NEVER!!! Ever. like never. *pats on the shoulder* I’m so sorry you had to write an essay on that, bro…

    I loved Part 2!!! I can’t wait to learn more about these characters and what’s going on!

    *Should probably go back and read critically and give better feedback but I have so many emails I haven’t even replied to yet, not to mention several topics, projects and *gazes dramatically at the ginormous pile of duties and projects I recklessly took upon myself with abandon…**

    I liked it!!
