*cants her head curiously*

*matches the look and smiles....

V.

Oooh... Sequel coming or are we supposed to sit and think of what may come? *smiles*

*chuckles... it's a bit of a think piece hun... what would you have it be?

V.

Ooh an alien!!! *smiles*

*smiles again....

V.

What a intensely atmospheric piece! Definitely not Vixyy-style, but almightily intriguing. It ends just at the right place for so many ideas to form in the reader's mind. Triumph!

*gives him a large hug...

I wanted to do something different this time... and so I did... thanks for the words M... much appreciated

V.

I can see this being the beginning of a lovely and fluffy story, and also the beginning of a sinister Stephen King style story. You chose a good place to stop, I think. Also, I think, for now, I shall only consider the possibilities and not try to convince you to set a single one... in stone. :)

*smiles... and that's as it should be... thank you for the kind words...

V.

*bows* Once more you've left me in awe.

*gives him a hug and sniffs at his neck... that was very nice of you to say hun...

V.

*smiles contentedly* You inspire wonder with a mere handful of carefully chosen words. I would never have thought of this, and I am so very greatful that you did. Thank you.

*blushes so bad... then gives him a hug and melts into his fur... you are far to kind to this old Fox Wire...

V.

Not at all, my dear. You deserve every bit of praise you get. And I'm always happy to give such praise to someone so talented. *returns her hug happily*

*whispers in his ear... 'I think the same thing of Tux and your other works.'

V.

...wow. I gotta agree, you did stop the story in the right place in order to inspire a myriad of possibilities in reader's minds. As a matter of fact, I would encourage you NOT to make another one in this storyline. Half the element of mystery is the proverbial curtain: If you don't know what's behind it, ANYTHING could be behind it. And that anything makes it intriguing, makes people want to curl back the curtain...

*smiles... thanks P... thanks a lot... and now... I'm off to bed.

V.

Night!

*smiles* different.
i like it.
a lot.

the thought that we could talk to shadows....well, one would certainly never need to be lonely then.

*curls with you, wraps tail around you and contemplates life, reality, and other such contemplatable things*

*snuggles into her fur... thank you hun.... mmmmmmmlovely

V.

heheee *nuzzles* you are very welcome.

Ooohh! Very mysterious.

I like it. I think it would be awsome to see you follow up on this one.

I wonder what the shadow is like.

*smiles... thank you Gemma... really... and I was wondering that myself...

V.

Hmm, interesting. It was certainly different you. Which is not to say that it wasn't good, because it was, very good. :D

thanks C... every now and again I venture out of my comfort zone - in this one I stuck to the rules of the prompt and just wrote...

*snuggles... so good to have you back... an now... back to writing...

V.

It's sort of nice to be back. Or rather, it's nice to be back online, but my feelings about being back in the UK are mixed. I've been really bad about writing, too. I've started most of the prompts, but my inspiration just dries after the first paragraph. Perhaps I've been drawing too much... ^_^

*gives her a hug... that's the idea behind the prompt; to give your mind fresh fields to plow. That's why I like to do different things on occasion - it breks things up and keeps them fresh.

V.

*nods* I like to do that, too. When I have time, which is never. >_<

Why am I reminded of Arthur C. Clarke's piece "The Sentinel"? Good job there.

Thank you so much T... *gives da bunny a hug...

V.

I greatly enjoyed this story. The concept is superb, and it was the perfect length. I think there is as much to be said about telling a story in few words as there is in writing a novel. My only complaint is that the fact that they are animals, or animal people seems to have little bearing on the story. As a rule of thumb I like to introduce anthros only if it somehow advances the story. Of course that is merely my personal preference, I don't find it particularly distracting in this instance. Leave it to a cat to see things a different way.

thank you so much Syzygy... *gives him a hug...

I have written non-anthro stories, but for the most (all) part, tht's what FA is all about. And yes... leave it to a Cat.

V.

Oh, I so love mysterious endings like this one. You could put almost any meaning in it you want and still wonder at its true meaning.

*smiles big... I like them too T... glad you liked it.

V.

*smiles big...

V.

**Plays spooky Theromin music**

And the cat was said to be see at the corners of vision on sunny days there after.

*laughs and gives him a hug..... you're a blessing doc...

V.

I like this one quite a lot. (yes, I just got round to reading it). Looking at things from a different view, good Cat.

*smiles... thank you Sphinxeye... it was a change for me yes...

V.

Ooooh.. it's a portal to a negative demension.. where shadows are people and they have people shadows.. yeah >.>

I see you're doing a whole bunch of catching up... thanks for reading me hun...

V.

Yeah I was lax.. but Looooove you

Very interesting little tale. Mysterious, fantastic. Different, even a bit weird. Most amusing, the living shadow, I wander how the cat thought about looking it in the first place. Great little piece, I enjoyed reading this.

*smiles and gives him a hug... thank you Panzer... very much...

V.

I really hope there's a continuation of this somewhere in the future, Vixyy my dear. @.@ Because, excuse my language, that was a hell of a cocktease.

*laughs so hard... no TW... this one was simply a prompt - no tease intended really...

*gives him a really big hug...

V.

Butbutbut... it was SO COOL D: I can't figure out what's going on. It's totally original and the end was so unexpected!

heh this is the first piece of writing to change the way i look at the world,
thank you for showing me.

your welcome Gruz... it's also very pleasing to me that you'd be cruising my gallery... thank you again...

V.

hmmm, the shadow.. p'haps the shadow of one of the old gods, long forgotten? and yon cat, perhaps another who still retained a physical form?

very nice V

thank you so very much....

*hugs...

V.

Hm, perplexing. Is this perhaps some moral story about first impressions and "Dont judge a book by it's cover"?

nooooooo... in the spirit of the prompt, I just dove in and that's what came out, though we should be more observant and ask lots more questions...

V.
