- 1Royal Road★★★★★ 4.5This story is from the perspective of a student permanently trapped in a classroom, always sleeping through the day and wandering the same place every night, unable to leave. This doesn't exactly make much sense, so I am guessing he is some sort of lingering spirit haunting the school, unable to move on. Still, the plot was quite haunting, and there were few errors.
- RznRoyal Road★★★ 3.0For such a short piece of fiction the feeling is what is expected to carry the piece, but it does not answer the key questions of who the boy is or give us a reason to care. The blurb is not very helpful for unlocking the piece either. It should not leave us in confusion. It hints at some background, but is purposefully vague.
