minus-squarereddit [any,they/them]hexbear16·edit-24 years agoSuch a fantastic story. One of my favorite short works of fiction of all time, honestly. I remember reading it in school and not really understanding it, and coming back to it years later and having it just hit me hard. I also recommend The Ones Who Stay And Fight by N. K. Jemisin, a sort of response story. link
