    Thats not a proper story a snippet at best.

    2.5/5 rolled down to 2 for lazy writing, could be done better

    Flat 2/5. Compared to the mindfucks of Nugar, this was lacking severely in subtly. But even in its own right, it just didn't feel like there was enough.

    Very short, not particularly creative nor emotion-inducing. 2/5 - gains a point for not being atrocious, loses the rest of them for not being anything much at all.

    I liked it. Worked well for its length.

    3.5/5

    Decent enough, but I don't think it really qualifies as a oneshot, even. A snippet, perhaps. It works well enough as a standalone piece, though, just not of sufficient length to justify a higher rating.

    3.5/5, rounded down.

    Nothing to say but weak. Not enough story, weak dialogue, no plot. Weak.

    I liked it, but it only gets a 3/5 because the length feels too short for something in the library. I almost feel like DLP should have a section just for short one-shots and drabbley stuff.

    See, it wasn't terrible, but...

    I was disappoint. With the amount of words written, what I expected was something sort of photographic - capturing a moment, an idea, a characterization...

    It was more like a 5-second long youtube video of someone falling out of a tree...
