Hunter

is that what you okay yeah i i think as soon as i heard like large white i just thought of like a giant pillow body which kind of me up of like this giant insect i was kind of hoping in the story that the creature would hold on to the light and it would be like moving through the forest almost like it's like a giant uh lightning bug or whatever just like floating through the forest and like you know like just that that shadow play

It's so fun.

And picturing that, you're like, oh, fuck.

It's almost like a spirit.

Because then it takes on a new form where it's like, yeah, it's a monster, but now it almost feels like a ghost or something floating through this forest.

It was a lot of fun.

I think that, like, you know, once again, it's fun whenever these stories are

on the shorter side that have like a fun hook to them versus it really sucks when we read a story and it's like six hours long and you're like, what the fuck?

Even like, there's no, no, it's certainly punchy.

Yeah.

The difference and the reason why it's so satisfying is because Pen Pal is all about character.

You have to have strong characters.

You care about the characters.

These, I could care less.

Exactly.

I think that they are their own and you could have them be their own, but it's so much more effective when...

you're rooting for this character like you're really you're with them you're like you want to see where this is going you'd establish a relationship with them but then i think that's also just writing something that's real it's understanding that like this character is changing things are unfolding that's just so hard it's a very hard thing to do so whenever you do come across stories that kind of like move you in that way it's almost always because the care like the author is writing

good characters and that's like that's the backbone in my opinion of i mean just story in general is conflict and characters and stuff so these are nice too though i mean like don't be wrong like i said i love the like peel the band-aid off kind of uh stories like this where it's just like i don't fucking know it's a stupid kid who likes juice let me get you to where i wanted to get you i think is a fun way too so i think it's just a

the reason I want to say it too, is just people who are writing this or going to things differently.

It's like, it's not that like one diminishes the other.
