So, because I don't know what snippet of Harajuku Kiss to use without ruining the suspense of it, we are once more back to Demon and Fairy.
If you are interested in reviewing Harajuku Kiss, please use the Goodreads thread, here.
Here are my 8 sentences with creative punctuation for everything to fit, the weirdness continues (of course he is Seti). And we start where we left off last weeks.
He
managed to get up and to find the door; he passed his hand repeatedly
where the handle should have been but it was missing. He wondered if
it was the right place, his eyes didn’t manage to get used to the
dark; he ran his hand on the wall looking for the switch. It was
there, so it was the door, but the handle was gone. He pressed the
switch again and again, but nothing happened. He kept on pressing
listening to the click of the switch waiting for the light. Then he
suddenly started to panic, this darkness wasn’t natural something
was wrong with his eyes. He stroked them until they started hurting,
but he still couldn’t see a thing. The Chaos in his head was
becoming more intense.
Yes, Seti is in trouble and not from the Chaos only, seeing that the Chaos is still in his head. Now, what the hell are his parents trying to do... Well, you'll see that over the next few weeks.

Yep, he's in deep. Poor Seti!
ReplyDeleteI could sense the panic coming on. Nice job of showing is that, Linda. :-)
ReplyDeleteInteresting scene with lots of potential. I'd like to read it written from Seti's POV rather than being told about it by the narrator, especially the part in which he discovers he can't see.
ReplyDeleteNice 8!
Some sort of kill or cure strategy?
ReplyDeleteThis still sounds like a hard place to be.
ReplyDeleteOh dear, ok now I'm all worried about Seti! And the darkness and the missing door handle and...the CHAOS! Excellent excerpt....
ReplyDeleteThis is good. You really capture the feel of chaos and confusion.
ReplyDeletePoor Seti, seems like a pretty scary situation.
ReplyDeletePoor Seti, I hope he's okay!
ReplyDeleteI was wondering if he was blind from the previous snippet. But that doesn't explain the missing door handle. Something is very wrong!
ReplyDeleteIt sounds as if poor Seti is caught in the middle of a ba-a-a-ad dream, or some delirious state. I really feel for him.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, I would make a change in one of your lines to read "until they started hurting" (add 'ed' to start)
Good 8.
I could feel the panic! Well done!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to read more of this and find out what's happening to him and why.
