Talk:You Are in a Room/@comment-5245439-20130807131536

Hm, I like this very much.

It reminds me of the beginning of Amnesia, where Daniel wakes up from nowhere. He's in a dark corridor, this is in a dark room.

Now I'm going to be honest, if I was actually in this situation, I'd be scared out of my wits. In terms of the mystery person not speaking back to you. My eyes play tricks on me when it's dark, so who knows what else I'd see.

Now, ambiguity is always a nice touch. But I feel that this pasta is a bit... too ambigious. I like where it ended, but at the same time, I think it could've still said more without ruining the entire mystery. Although, I picture the roommate giving you a massage and carressing you when s/he puts his hands on your shoulders (this is probably just my dirty mind).

Overall, I like the atmosphere of this. I'm never scared by psychological thrillers (which is why I probably write them lol), but I'm fascinated by them. The mind is a complex thing after all, and a real person would not only cry and sweat, but probably imagine all sorts of torturous things the roommate would do to them.

I also like how he's called the roommate, like the person in the chair is thinking s/he'll be buddies with this stranger.

I'm going to give this a 7/10, because I really think it could be fleshed out a bit more. But all-in-all, well done, as usual :)
