Even if I turned the record player off, the music would keep skipping.

Always nice to read another of yours, SSAE. I’m continually astounded by your range as a writer
I'm not sure if this is a cry for help, a lament at creative stagnation, a condemnation of one-note characterization of background ponies, or just Skirts being Skirts.

All of the above?
It can feel like a betrayal to who they were to accept who they are, as though all the memories will disappear or lose their meaning if the person in them doesn’t exist anymore. But I have found nothing more difficult than believing in a ghost that I can look in the eye.
Stagnation is bad when you're stuck in a bad place. Change can bring only good. But what if you were stuck in a good place? Then stagnation would be good, and change bad.
It's too bad there are far more ways for things to be bad than there are for them to be good.
One of the few second-person stories that I was happy to read. Very evocative and immersive. Great work, Skirts.
Kinda seems like this is what would come about a year or two after the end of “The Graduate”.
Feels like an extended chapter from Things Tavi Says. Almost like a prologue. I like it.
The pacing on this had a great ebb to this, though I have to echo everyone else about the evocative flow of how used language here. Maybe this is a vent fic, or a warmup to try and ease into the spirit for an upcoming project. However you intended it, this story was successful.
Based Arcade Fire reference too.
