One Shot For One Shot

The old man made was almost like a talisman...
Maybe it's just me, but that didn't make a whole lot of sense...
Anyway, other than that, the summary was really nice. And definitely got me interested in reading.

Overall, I really, really, really like this. You're a wonderful writer and very creative. I never would have thought up something like that from the picture you were given. I hope you did/or will do well in the competition, and if not, the judges are idiots ;)

Very good job!

It was really amazing. Seriously.

It's like, all the little details seemed so important. & it's so believable and true to this age...it almost seemed real.

You're a brilliant author.

This was...beautiful.

I don't think there's any better way to describe it. Your writing is so trendemendously perfect and it creates such beautiful pictures in my head. Your way with words is elegant and they flow so effortlessly.

Details; that was one thing I loved about this story. Small seemingly unimportant details but they tells us so much about this person who we get to know, but then again, not really.

I like your setting. Like, it's... ordinary. Anyone could've been in that place. Could've been that person and that makes it so brilliant.

Reading about the old man brought tears to my eyes. I felt so sorry for him, because he had no one. And everybody needs someone. He seemed so sad to me, almost like he'd given up, just sitting on that bench all day.

The ending was...well, perfect. Just as it should've been. Really beautifully written.

I love how you emphasize the fact that they are not alone anymore. I loved this.

Beautiful.

I really like this one :D The plot is amazing and the characters are well defined, and it was a totally unexpected way to approach your picture (which is good) :)
The little details were cute and the larger picture they made was just...brilliant :D
Well done!

...I loved this :) Like seriously, it was brilliant :D
Amazing way to use your picture. I couldn't have asked for a more original one.
You added all these details that made it a brilliant story :D I loved the ending,I loved how reflecting it was and how cute :) Only a few spelling errors, but other than that brilliant work!

Walking swiftly to the car he fished the car keys out of his pocket. His car was an old Ford, but he couldn't afford getting a new one and he actually developped some sort of love-hate relationship with the broken heating and the remnants of original silver colour of the hood. He opened the door at the driver's side, with a sharp pull because whenever it got colder than 5 Celsius degrees, the door wouldn't open just as easily, and grabbed an ice scraper.

I fell in love with this paragraph :D
