ahh karma really is a bitch man, never knew it could be THAT much of one though the guy is clueless, she's cheated and cheated, adn there he is comforting her, it's kind of endearing :) ahh cancer, I really hate that. It's so sad :( have had a lot of experience with that...
her ocupation that led to her death? what'd she do? I forgot x) she got a Harvard law degree? Holy shit, she's smart then! oh my goodness, that's brutally terrible D: this woman didn't do anything but be fair, and she got killed for it :(
I kind of think like that too. It's kinda scary to know you can die at any moment, because it really is inevitable aww he died alone :( poor guy
I can't believe I've finished all of this lovely work D: you did an amazing job on all of this just like I expected ;D
I love this its so amazing well written and descriptive...its so emotional too I love the way you describe emotions..really sucks you in over all a fine piece of writing =D x
So I must have forgot to subscribe to this or something. D: Each of the deaths was suiting I found and it was amazing how you conveyed so much meaning in only a hundred words. Roger's made me really, really sad but Mark's... his was the worst. It was so suitable but it was so, truly depressing.
Seriously, this was beautiful. You conveyed so much emotion and meaning in so few words. You truly have a gift and I am so glad you posted these stories on Mibba. (:
alright, now I'm on The Landlord :) dang, the third? that's a lot of of Ben Coffin's haha I like getting his P.O.V sometimes because t shows that he's not a complete douche, most people find the landlords the bane of their existence, but it's good to see that he isn't trying to be a jerk about it and he shot himself. all this suicide, jeez :(
well at least Roger had somewhat of a reason I mean he had Aids, that's gosh I can't even imagine that'd be terrible to have. you know you wll die, at a young age too, it's just slowly killing you so he died at the hospital? I like how you got the guitar in there because it shows that he really liked it, and it was a big part of him
great chapters four and five. You know I'll be sure to finish it ;)
I'm always happy to read your writing, you're such a wonderful author <3 i love how you made the connection between fishnets to dancer kinda thing ahh drinking, that always makes a person crazy wow, not a good death at all, damn!
aww it must be very sad to lose all those frends :( Merry Christmas, Bitches, dang nice job man! wow, jeez killed by a chair? damn! I'm in a huge rush, so I can't finish it now but I think I"m going to finished whether i have to or not :)
Its always chilling to read stories about death, to read how someone dies. I've never seen it captured quite so perfectly and flawless, with a hint of softness to it instead of it coming off as rugged and dirty. When you think death you think dirt and blood and smeared make-up with quickly drying tears but you made it seem so soft and and simple. Which isn't a bad thing, so I hope you don't take it in a bad way. It's refreshing and nice to see.
These are truly beautifully written stories. Death is such an unknown and fearful concept and you embrace it really well in your writing. Congrats for winning in the contest (:
I have to say that they are all still beautiful. I finished off reading the few that I had not read and they still touched me. They are simple and in that simplicity is their brilliance
i remember reading this wonderful prequel :) you're writing is awesome! I'm excited to read the first chapter aww death :( that's never good! Immune Deficiency Syndrome? what is that? wow, frst chapter was really sad, but still well written you've done a really good job with all these characters, as I read in Les Bohemes. Great job!
I didn't think that it possible to read anything more beautiful then Les Bohemes. But clearly, you've proven me wrong. This was absolutely gorgeously written. Amazing.
Roseh, you're brilliant. I love how you can write something so perfectly and smooth flowing that even thoguh it's brief, it tells an absolutely brilliant story.
The relationship that you compared her death to a statistic is something that's sad, but so true. So many suicides and deaths from AIDS/STDs are just statistics today, there's no meaning to them aside from comparing them to something else.
The death of Mimi with some form of injection - I'm assuming heroin or a medicine? - is described in a beautiful way. I love these short chapters; it makes for a fast, but meaningful read.
Tom's hanging shows how devoted to his friends he was. I'd not be able to cope with the deaeth of friends. Following that with the landlord's death is strange; why didn't they catch on that they could burn those things? It's strange that someone just killed him.
Roger's death is the biggest mystery to me - how did he die? What's AZT? for some reason this is the one that stands out to me the msot so far. Maureen's death through tumors hits way too close to home for me. Joanne's death was so stupid. Lawyers really are at that risk, which is terrifying even if I've never really heard much of lawyers being stabbed to death.
Mark's death being in the future almost gives you the feel that they're moving on. The bohemians chapter is done, finished. There's a new group that's going to come through, and that's it. That's just it.
This pulls out so many emotions... it's so lovely doll. <3 (Keep in mind I have no clue what this is based off of outside of this prequel xD. Either way, it's so lovely.)
I am glad that you have made a sequel to Les Bohèmes. It was probably my favorite set of drabbles I have ever read considering how much I love RENT. It is sad to think that the others, minus Angel, will die and I think I wouldn't want them to die any other way than you have written it. I am actually surprised that I haven't stumbled upon this since I read the prequel, but I'm glad that I did. I think I am in love with this story, along with the prequel.
So, I've read every chapter. I don't have much to say honestly, but I'll say what I can. Mainly my lack of words is due to the length of the chapters--but this is a Rent fiction, yes? I have yet to read the entirety of the prologue but after reading these deaths, and how interesting they are--and how well they're written I really want to. I'm curious if you're just going to capture each and every death, and then branch into a story, or what. But I do have to say that I love the way you write it. How it's sort of a documentary and the emotions are not there at all. It makes it that much more interesting, I'm definitely going to go back and read Les Bohemes. :)
Alright so I haven't read Les Bohemes, bu I shall go back and do so. I would like to say though that they way you capture death is very simple and yet fitting for each of these. It's a brief glimpse and then it's gone.
I loved Les Bohemes. :( I loved them all. I like the way you write, just the short snippet, to the point, just getting out there what you have to get out.
If this is possible, this was more beautiful then Les Bohemes. Seriously. It blows me away how you can capture so much meaning in just a few simple words. I bawled my eyes out when Angel died in the play and in the film. I really can't wait to see how you write the others, especially Roger. I'm looking forward to him.
never knew it could be THAT much of one though
the guy is clueless, she's cheated and cheated,
adn there he is comforting her, it's kind of endearing :)
ahh cancer, I really hate that. It's so sad :( have had a lot of experience with that...
her ocupation that led to her death? what'd she do? I forgot x)
she got a Harvard law degree? Holy shit, she's smart then!
oh my goodness, that's brutally terrible D:
this woman didn't do anything but be fair,
and she got killed for it :(
I kind of think like that too. It's kinda scary to know you can die at any moment,
because it really is inevitable
aww he died alone :( poor guy
I can't believe I've finished all of this lovely work D:
you did an amazing job on all of this just like I expected ;D
