Blue, a blue car.
Appearing as the faintest hint, a premonition, just around the corner. The light is blue, the sky is blue, the world is beautiful, idyllic. No need to see the blue car, but it�s there, at the edge of my vision, nagging at me. Then, in slow motion, almost inevitably, emerging. A sound of steel against steel, and�

Very nice, and very chilling. I read the story, but the excerpt stands on its own. This is my favorite work of yours, Yukino.

I have read it several times. With months in between.
And by the time I reach yellow, I shiver. Every time.

Amazing.
Still catching my breath. Reading it, I felt like I was tumbling, falling…from color to color to color. It felt like I took about 15 seconds to read the whole thing, so I went back and read it again. Same thing. But I didn’t miss a word.
Amazing.
