Okay, well firstly, my apologies for not reading this the day before yesterday like I said I would.

Now onto the good part.

Holy cheese, Red, you never fail to astound me with your writing skills. Your vocabulary and language is impeccable - but more importantly, so is your usage. You don't sound like a seven year old picking words out of a thesaurus; you sound professional, and the way you weave together your story is just entrancing. I seriously fall in love with your writing style every single time I read one of your works.

Since this is a one-shot type thing, I'd totally get it if it had no backstory at all, but you even managed to weave that in, showing us bits and pieces of the cats' history. It made it feel like we were really getting a glimpse into Mousewing/star's life, that even though this was only one fleeting - yet very important moment - we weren't cheated of any chance at getting to know her and feel her emotions. The description of the life-recievings were clear and very well elaborated upon, while at the same time you didn't go with the monotone route of listing each one and writing a small essay on each.

And the ending paragraph was gorgeous.

In short, flawless, mah dear. How do you do it? x3 <3
