Blood from a Stone

Marble loves her family.

She helps them, cares for them, and would never, ever treat them poorly.

She can't really say the same for herself.

Damn, that's a rough read.

Not sure what to really say, it's one of those stories that leaves me wondering what I should say, or comment in regards to the content. Honestly? I don't know. I feel a lot of stuff about the situation, but none I can express in this comment.

It's a nicely written story, I'll give you that. Though if you're looking for something more, I'm afraid I can't give it, cause I wouldn't know what to even say.

Good show, Freglz.

I... I don't really have words for this. It was well written; that's a fact. It's just... this is a very charged story that I think can resonate with a lot of people. It resinated with me at least.

Interesting. Not sure where the twist goes. Good internal psychology.

I do quite like this, Marble very nearly being a mirror of how I feel. Were it not for the empathy I hold towards those close to me, I believe by now I would have very much done something rash.

This has so much of my life in here, it's amazing. I wish I could say that I wish I can smile and mean it, but I never do.

At first I hated this because of how emo it was, but I started to like it towards the end.

Paced greatly, language kept under control, bitter feelings poignant. A very good read.

This is the hate that lives within your bones. That festers in your gut and fills your stomach with bile. That sickens you to the core whenever you think of what you can never undo. That shadows and hounds you and nips at your heels when you see others smile and laugh. That carves out your insides when you try to do the same – to feel what they feel. What you once felt.

yes. fucking yes.

I honestly would like to see a part two of this. Where she turns the self hatred outward. Uses the rage she feels to do something she knows she shouldn't. Those with self destructive behavior will often be the first to jump into a fight with no plan. That seems like what Marble would do.
