I really liked this. You said you wrote it in ten minutes, but that jagged, unpolished quality really added tothe atmosphere of the story. The bitterness came across pretty well. I loved the line where he said Ryan was a liar and then corrected himself and said he was a poet. I thought that was so powerful and again, added to Brendon's bitterness.
I liked that these two characters were both relatively strong. (Ryan, not so much, but from what I gather, he usually doesn't come across so desperate and pathetic.) I loved it because there was really no tie keeping them together really, the outcome was really ambiguous. It felt as though they both didn't really care, but still couldn't imagine themselves with anyone else. I just found these characteristics were really interesting.
MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP I HATE YOU I LOVE THAT SO MUCH
