“That was the worst thing ever.” This story might have been better if you’d meant it as dark humor (but without the PTSD). But this trifle about multiple personalities at-will in response to trauma was just off-putting—your story couldn’t get around the logic dilemma that if Claire knows about Dominique and can summon “her” at will, it follows logically that she knows/remembers the gang rape and abuse. It’s off-putting that your writing then simultaneously dismisses and exploits this type of serious trauma. 1 Star.
But in a good way.
Liked this, it summons up many interesting future stories that wash over a reader like a tsunami of delicious possibilities. Some flash stories are self-contained, this one works on its own but also turns on a tap/faucet. It may just be dripping for now but that seal is itching to fail. You must consider turning this into something bigger, please.
This story seems to be your latest, so I am taking this opportunity to comment on "Limbo".
Those two stories are, by far, the best stories I have read on Literotica. I am old and not terribly emotional, but I cried over several scenes -- the funeral scene was really, really well written.
I normally read "loving wives" but now that I have found your stories, I will read more.

Wow, a really good an interesting work. The fact that it's 750 makes it even more masterful. Thank you.
