A very very strong rec indeed

Whatever you are doing, drop it and read this: http://shadowycat.livejournal.com/173531.html?view=2612187#t2612187. I have rarely read such a perfect short story anywhere. I am known to have a way with a twist ending myself, but I rather think that shadowycat's is as good as or better than anything I ever wrote. Absolutely marvelous.
