I have read the first few chapter and I do enjoy your story so far keep it up.

Excellent story, though not 100% sure if you .meant to leave so many things up to interpretation?

I absolutely meant to leave a lot of things ambiguous.

Firstly, because most of this is symbolic, just like in Silent Hill, and there's no fun in symbolism if you explain it. Secondly, because it's not really necessary to know exactly what's going on in everyone else's head, or who exactly Gilded Glider was, or any number of other things.

This story was about Sunny coming to terms with his flaws and failures, and how he responded to those flaws and failures. Cloudy's state of mind, what Petunia's gone through, where Long Night came from--those details aren't that important to the story, so they can be left up to interpretation.

I get it - just wasn't sure if the parts about what was implied to have happened to him as a colt or Gilda's return/disappearance were dropped on purpose.

Or the little tumor dude.

The little tumor dude, along with a couple other things, will be addressed in a sequel.

What happened to him as a colt was left ambiguous because the details weren't important.

As for Gilda: She doesn't see the monsters because she doesn't have any crippling fears or self-doubts, and as a result the Rakshasa had no power over her. She "disappeared" because she's actually able to leave the town; to her, it was just a normal trip to a surprisingly empty bar, followed by an uneventful walk out of town.

Okay, this was... interesting. I've neither seen the movie or played the game it's inspired by, but I found the story dragged me along nonetheless despite the frequent switches between present and past tense (which I usually really turn me off a story). Not entirely sure what to think, but have a green thumb. Entertaining.

On edit: what were the prompts from the bingo card?

The bingo card was "Gilda Breaks Up With Sunny Skies, Livestock Character, New Mythos".

Also, did I still have past/present tense shifts? Dammit, I thought I caught all of those...

Thanks, you did well on those prompts ;)
And yeah, there's still a lot of those tense hops, sorry.
Well, I was entertained.

Ey, proud to give the like that made that 100% public. Well deserved.

Sorry I didn't respond to all of your comments as you made them; I've been running all over the place and haven't paid as much attention to FiMFic as I was when I was writing this.

I was gonna write a giant spoilerpost explaining everything, but then I realized--that'd be perfect for a blogpost! So I'll go draft that up and think about whether or not I really want to release the writer's commentary before I finish up either of the planned sequels.

Well done.

That was a very satisfying read. Although I am left with one question did Moody survive, or is he dead for real?

Moody is alive, and is convinced that the whole thing was a terrible nightmare.

I totally didn't forget to resolve that and I certainly am not currently panicking about how to write a resolution into the sequel.

Lmao! Happens to all of us. Thank you for clarifying though, and good luck finding a way to work it in!
