Happy middle is all im looking for lol. Being brave and being stupid are two very different things. Fear is what makes us human. Which is also ironic because we're still animals ourselves. SO the whole quote should be fear is what makes us animals. But that's not the point. The point is that if the mc has nothing to fear from the beginning; in a setting where the mc doesn't even have a special skill (No running ur mouth is not a power its a hinderance), the whole story can be thrown off course. Turning something beautiful in to something sad and deluded. And I for one wouldn't want to read that. Got enough delusional people in the world. Subtract from the problem dont add to it.
Edit: Now that ive read the new and improved version.....im lovin it so far. It seems the author has taken the time to really hear out the comments here and on other social forums so I'm gonna continue to be patient and see where this goes. Keep it up guys!!!!
