*tips hat šŸŽ©* 

Always a pleasure to read one of your short stories.

This was great. Pushed some boundaries, but I think you handled them in a manner with purpose.

Story was quite good, though the flow and clarity sometimes stumbled a bit.

Honestly, what confuses me the most was the one review saying the ending doesnā€™t track with the story.

I guess it seemed obvious enough to me that sheā€™s received similar treatment in Vinci, and her new life allows her to take what she was held back from and punish the rest for her old life.

Oh well, everyone has a different opinion, I suppose.

Thank you for your kind words and feedback! Can you point out some places where you thought the flow stumbled? I'm not that pleased to include asterisk-breaks and time skips in a story of this length (I mentioned that in another comment, I think) and I'd like to know if those are what negatively impacted the flow to you, or if the problem lies elsewhere.

Mostly some run-on sentences and a bit of drag in the middle column of the page. 

A few rough sentences of dialogue.

Also noticed a few grammatical errors (the professorā€™s speech opens with quotation marks but doesnā€™t feature any at the end, for example).

A few sentences that could have been combined for clarity (make quick into quickly, and the sentence could turn into Professor Cornacchia lunged quickly for an old man), but I can see the thought process (surprisingly quickly is a better sentence, but word count prevents some of the more illustrative sentences).

Itā€™s not a massive deal, a lot of it is stylistic choices, such as the asterisks. Iā€™ve used those before a lot, and donā€™t find them a problem.
